In the state of California, if your job fires you for arguing with a customer can they tell other employers who call about you why they fired you? (I got fired from Bank of America for arguing with a customer and now I wanna get a job with the city)

Ok heres the WHOLE story. 5 years ago I was fired for stealing something from Home Depot. To this day, I regret it, It was the only thing I have ever stolen in my life. My questions is, ever since then I have been going to school, but now I want to apply for a job but am very nervous about putting down on my application that I was let go due to taking something from the store. So what do you think? Is it on my record? Am I doomed for the rest of my life, to never get hired for a job due to this mistake in my life?

I know to get into college you have to take ACTs and stuff but do you have to do it to get into cosmetology school to?

What all do you do, is it mostly hands? Just curious.

Thanks!

I am a sales professional and am working in an establishment where the management has stated, " I can make you or break you". I have four major issues. (1) I have not received any leads in 4 months when we receive an average of 25 per week. (2) I have not received the seminar I won for exceeding my sales goal in October 2006 (3) My manager denied approval for me to transfer to a more lucrative campaign (4) I believe to be rewarede for merit and not brown nosing
I expressed my views with my manager and it did not go well. In the past four months my sales have declined ( Although I still remain in the top 5 ) and my manager gave me an unrealistic action plan. I had to reach 14 sales by last friday or else I would be fired. I made 4 and was not fired. The manager now makes me feel uneasy and calls my name out in meetings. I have been looking for antoher job but want to resign. The main reason that hold me back -Plan B - cant receive E.I if you quit

overly sensetive!? I 've been working for a Chiropractor for three years now. The doctor started me working from the house when I had my baby seven months ago. From home I still work on the office's insurance claims, etc. Well, the doctor updated his web page and had a section, "Let me introduce you to my staff." and I'M NOT listed!!! I am EXTREMELY hurt and now feel like I don't mean anything to the office. I work my butt off, just from home? Am I being a dork or would you feel as hurt as me too. I've always worked so hard and now I feel like I'm not being acknowledged and feel sort of left out.

Please, no rude answers, I'm really depressed about this.

I'm currently a cashier at a grocery store making around 11 bucks an hour. I work about 20 hours a week mostly on weekends (I'm a college student). This summer I may be getting a paid internship (40 hrs a week) but would like to keep the cashier job so I can work there next school year. I already have pretty much no life, so should I just work every day (internship M-F and cashier Sat and Sun)? I'd make well over 6 grand during the summer (enough for an entire year of school) doing that.

I'm currently majoring in the field of Graphic Design, I love it, and I'm finishing out my first year, so far it's been very easy and I've been on The Dean's List every semester (which is quite a surprise since in high school I was averaging C's and D's). I'm just wondering how hard it will be to find a job once I get out of college. I live in Ohio, if that'll better help with answering I'm not sure.

Also was this a safer career choice over Fashion Design or Interior Design, or does it fall into about the same risk zone?

When i work with certain people, i feel like they dont move and i always make the first move. I feel like they are just watching what i do and that they only react to my actions rather than instigating any of their own. Then they mock me. I feel like i have a life and they are just Energy sponges, sponging off of me! Help! What should i do!
I tried doing what they do, but i get depressed doing that.

I was offered a position as an Assistant to the Editor for a downtown magazine (it's a new free based magazine) the problem is I'm currently working for a temp agency and I'm happy at my current assignment. I know that when the position at the temp job gets filled that I will have to leave. The problem is the people at the temp job want me to stay for a couple of weeks longer. Now the new job at the magazine is going to pay 30k and is in china town (ways from Downtown L.A.) and the editor already cursed me out for not starting ASAP, now I understand her but I just don't know if I should take the job. I don't see me there for more than 2yrs. I dont have degree and only went to community college for 1 yr. I would like a permanent job but just don't know where
