I've been an RN for 7 months now, and am working the floor. My plan is to get a year or so of experience out of the way and then move on to something that suits me better. My question is this: do you have any recomendations of what specialty has made your work life fulfilling and enjoyable?

I work in a small office. My boss and colleagues are very nice to me. The problem is, this is not the job I wanted to do. I accepted this job because at the time I was tight on money. When I was interviewed, she asked me what I am seeing myself in the future and I told her about my dream job. She understood that I would moved on to another job and still offered me the job after I assured her that I'd stay for at least 2 yrs before I moving on. On the 2nd day of my current job, I got a phone call from that company that I'd like to work with - which I sadly declined. Now I've been with the company for 6 months and I feel like I cannot grow with this company and get bored with my monotonous work (I really like something challenging for my work). I've been thinking of quiting but I am on moral dilemma because of what I promised my boss. I'm 26 and if I start my dream job - it'll be from the bottom. I feel like I am wasting my time with the current job.

What should I do?

My boyfriend is working in military. I hate that, because its dangerous. His term of military will expire this year. But my boyfriend said I want to keep working.
I want to say that I want you to quit the job. but I cant, because he will hate me because he will think that I dont understand about him.
and now we are long-distance love. so, I cant tell him face to face.

Will a man dislike that a girlfriend say ' I want you to quit the job' ?

I spend all day on here as I have a mundane job and when I'm not on here I don't actually have any work to do. No-one can see me. I just make sure I have a few bits of paperwork on my desk to give the illusion of working.

I work as a float secretary and have been here for 3 months. I was only supposed to be here until the end of Jan, but thought I'd ask if they'd need me after, to which they said no. A few hours later they said yes and "we'd rather have more staff on board". The latest is, they now think they no longer need me after all. They've excluded me from their Xmas lunch, even though other float secs were invited and now they're saying that perhaps I could do a 3 day week, instead of my usual 5. I replied that I need 5 days worth pay. Do you think they're taking the p***?

I have a customer who has insisted there is a problem with their copier.....I go there and find everything working fine.
They insist on another technichian to look..that other technician reschedules all the parts to rebuild the paper feed section and then some.....He ordered just to appease the customer...the work will take most of the day if not all day..I have other accounts that are larger than than this one account....IE...Northrup Gurman, Military Base, and a school district...all who have multiple units and are big payers....Do I send all the parts back to my boss and tell him to let the guy who ordered this stuff install them or should I just blow off everyone for a day and work on this old machine.
This is not the 1st time someone has ordered all kinds of stuff for nothing.....especially when I am on vacation...which is why I hate taking vacation...I worry too much whats to come.

I am 24 and have spent my entire life in school; this means that in addition to my BA I also have two Master's Degrees. But it also means that I have very little work experience to put on my resume. I have included the jobs I've had (mostly summer, holiday, and temp work) as well as the copious volunteer work I have done.

The trouble is that I still am not getting a lot of bites. I send out my resume to several different companies a day, along with cover letters detailing why I would be a great candidate, but very few offers of employment. What am I doing wrong?

My boyfriend says that employers are afraid to hire someone with more education than they have for fear that I would replace them. He thinks I should not put my graduate degrees on my resume. On the other hand, I have no solid work experience to show, and most employers only want "experienced" people to apply. What do I do?

I have considered applying at Starbucks but my pride prevents me. Any ideas?
