I have been trying for a very long time to get hired on at the local jail as a jail officer and at a prison for a correctional officer. I want to go into criminal justice and I think it would be an excellent start. My work history is bad, I got fired at my last job, walked out of the one before that, and got fired at the job before that and on my crimainal background I was convicted of 2 misdemeanors 5 years ago and 1 misdemeanor 8 years ago. I live in GA. They said that its not having an effect on the hiring decision. I just want to know what I can do besides getting my record expunged right now to get the job and what is the best thing to put on my applications since I have a bad work history. I mean I know honesty is the best thing, but what do I do?

I have a friend who wants to be a lawyer someday but she's having second thoughts about it. She always feel dsicouraged whenever somebody says a negative remark of this job. They say that this job will only make you an expert liar. When you have a client ang admitted that his a murderer, as a lawyer you should do all you can to prove that your client is innocent though he/she is not and that's lying.

I need a job because I hate asking my parents for money. I ask for about 30 dollars a week. I feel quilty because the only thing I spend it on is clothes and stuff like that. And when and brothers and sisters ask for money it's for a better reason. I'd rather earn the money, then ask.

I'm looking at going to University or college to expand my art career, Right now, I'm not going to school but am succeeding in a fine artist. But I want to possibly have a back up job in the art world, incase my plans don't work out. Something that is in need, and doesn't take more then 3 yrs of school preferably.
I can't do Art director, the job market for that isn't high at all. Any other suggestions ? And what courses I would need to take.
PS. Not graphic designer either. Just something very simple

I worked for three years at my job, and I have accumulated a bit of money in raises but now that the minimum has been increased, which is good for others but sucks for me. Now I'm earning as much as a new employee!

I mean besides filing for unemployment...

I feel really lost and weird and don't know whether to launch into an aggressive job search, move immediately to a cheaper place (I could barely afford this place while I had this job; now there's no way!), or go on a (badly-needed!) vacation. I also need a new car desperately, as mine is falling apart... but I'm in no position to buy a new one now.
So confused...

I know they give an hourly wage, and tips are mostley a buck or two per pizza. I'm wondering if making 200 bucks under the table is possible, in a city of 100,000 or more.

I had a job interview yesterday and every thing went very well up to a point.

I was very happy as I had covered all the points I wanted to bring up and was fairly confident that I had given a good account of myself. But then my mobile phone went off. I apologiesed. The girl interviewing me pretented not to notice. But instantly stoped being friendly.

Up to this point we had been joking and it was more like a chat than an interview. She became very formal very quickly .

I'm just wondering how badly an interviewer may look on my phone going off.
