Few days go a consulting company contact me and asked me to come to FL but i'm in different state. She is asking me to be there by MArch 20 and take the tests. Not willing to take phone interview and not paying traveling expenses and relocation expenses. I really like this job. But I don't want to spend $1000 on ticket and everything and find out I didn't get the job. Do you think I should go????? Should I email her back that i'm not interested....or should i not say anything and let her figure it out i'm not interested

I want to buy a business in Arizona prefebly in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area. I dont want restraunt or something fickle and risky. So I was thinking of a property managment business or car wash/service station. Both tend to be stable can be lucrative and arent 24/7 retail business like a 7 eleven. I am qualified up to 750k with a SBA loan. Is this a stupid idea. I am relocating from another part of the country and want to work for myself down there. Am I being stupid?

I’m trying to think of a company name and could use some help….
I document (create workflows) and analyze business processes to optimize efficiency.
What do you think of ‘Diedrich Analytics’? (Diedrich = my last name)
What is an adjective to describe the best means to an end in terms of efficiency, when referring to a single process? What is an adjective to describe interrelated activities brought together for the purpose of mapping and analyzing them? Or, a title for ‘the more you know, the better your business’….thanks

He has been changing the protocol and processes and then he asked me to do some real wrong things with paperwork and money. Immediately I called the CEO and reported this to him. Then I also drafted an email and sent it across to the same person. They respected me and have asked me to fly to their branch office this Friday and meet with the CEO.
Do I open up with all the truth?
Do I report whatever my boss has done?
Do I speak frankly and tell them what I feel?
Please tell me what is the best way I can speak to a CEO of an american international company and how can I impress him?
I have done a great job and received many praises and most of them know I have done well... I do have people who do not like me doing this well, but I have this one chance to meet this CEO and what should I do to get a good name.

Please give me some valuable feedback if you are also in the same level of a CEO/President/COO. I am a Manager from India with bosses in the USA. Thank you for the advice. Bye

hey, i recently quit my hell job that drove me into depression. My family and friends think i should take employment insurance and relax for a few months. I would make more doing that than finding another job in this area. But i would feel like a bum if i had no job. What do you think i should do...UI for few months or get another job

I had to take the day off to register my son for school and my boss told me that I have a responsiblity at work and those things should be done on my own time. I work from 9am-6pm. Is it not a law to offer sick day or time off, I have a life too and sometimes I need a day off to take care of my business.

Many of my collegues got an email from one of the employees, I am just putting it here in parts.
1. Starting message of the thread
2. My reply to the email

[1] FW: A REAL LIFE STORY!!
"This is a real story of a young college girl who passed away last month in chennai. Her name was Priya. She was hit by a lorry. She was working in a call centre. "[THE STORY STARTS LIKE THIS AND GOES ON AND ENDS LIKE] "Hutch has the best coverage. Wherever you go, our network follows!!! Never in my life i have read such an email...Wasted ten minutes coz of this..."
Regards, XXXX.



[2] By knowing the entire content of this message you wasted 10 minutes in life, you made others to waste time by sending it to work email ids. This has been marked as spam by the mail client, but in future "a real stuff" could lead to "real ignorance".
