I'm 14 and I need to get a job to keep me occupied this summer. Problem is, I don't have a resume and most places require one. I'm not sure how to write one and I've tried google searching but they're for older people with higher education. If anyone can get me an outline or something or tell me what to put on it [subtitles etc.] that'd be GREAT! = ]

I am working at a small company and I really don't like the job. They constantly ask me to work on the weekends and overtime. I am looking for another job, but its difficult to find time to interview.
They want me to work this coming Saturday, but I have a prior commitment and I plan to tell them that. Can they make it mandatory to work on Saturday?

Also, my daughter lives with my ex-husband in another state. He is moving due to accepting another job. I will probably have to go and get my daughter to come live with me and change the custody arrangements. I live in another state and will have to travel to where she lives and be there for at least a few days.

I was thinking of leaving my present job since I don't plan to stay there anyway. I don't want to feel like a quitter though and that I am looking for a way out of a bad situation.

I'm 47, single, living with my mom, and am about $15000 in debt, not including credit cards. I graduated high school in '77, started at University of Houston, got sideswiped by a car while on my motorcycle, returned to college in '82 after doing odd jobs, and declared Finance my major. I tried for several years to get into Investments but couldn't understand why I was turned down repeatedly. I finally landed a job in a commercial bank in '84. The bank then laid me off in early '85 (oil bust) and I felt screwed.. I didn't know that sometimes the good guys get the axe. And other banks that had hired my coworkers wouldn't even consider me! I tried to get special considerations from the dean of Finance in '85 (some of my my classmates had gotten similar favors), and was turned down by the dean. Seeing the economy going south I quit school again. After all, my education hadn't prevented me from getting dumped. I went through an extended period of unemployment, tried to start a business in '88, and finally landed in telemarketing in '89. More low-level jobs followed and then I got what I thought was the break. I had a chance to return to college and get a BS Social Science plus a CIW certification. Now I was set to become a computer programmer. After all, I had a degree plus training in Java, HTML, Perl, PHP, Javascript, ASP!! I was no longer going to be the failure that I had become. I went to the local WorkSource meetings, registered with about 100+ agencies, looked online, scoured buildings in my area, talked to every one I knew, redid my resume a dozen times, attended a job search workshop, and did every thing you are supposed to do to find a job. About four miserable years later my mom and I were on food stamps, had about $4 in the bank, no major assets, no jobs forthcoming, and thoughts of just ending it. I couldn't figure it out because this time I had done it right.

I had completed my education and times were supposed to get better. Suddenly a little company in my neighborhood hired me for $7.50 an hour to do customer service over the phone. I bought some new underwear for myself that Christmas, started putting money in the bank, and even got promoted to Help desk at $8.50 an hour. But, alas, the manager at this little office started purposefully cutting my hours and such to make me quit. I took it for a while but my dignity got in the way. I told him I was out of there and went home to continue my job search that had begun several months earlier when I noticed things getting bad. I have looked at positions (again!) such as finance clerk, customer service rep, junior economist (social science degree), Web assistant, computer operator, etc. Once again it seems as though nobody really cares or appreciates what I have done or can do. Now, 3 months later, my mom are still on food stamps, I have $277 in the bank, and no jobs forthcoming. We're once again living off of her social security and her part-time job. I really like the areas of Investments, Entrepreneur, and Computers. I hate customers service and waiting on people. Where do I go from here? Thanks.

I already hold my b.a. in economics and am finding it hard to finding a job that suits me, on top of the Japanese I plan to acquire my MBA. Just wondering if this will increase my market value or if I should just focus on my MBA.

I had a conflict with a supervisor about six years ago, when I graduated high school, which resulted in me losing my job. I am currently seeking a position in the field of my degree. I have to list my job history, and they're requiring me to go back for the last 10 years, so I have no choice but to list the job in which I was fired from. Does "job ended" sound better than "I was fired"? And also, is it dishonest or deceptive?
