I've never made up a resume before, so I want to know if I can put my friend of 14 years on there. Can she vouch for my character, or does it have to be someone for whom I've volunteered, or a teacher or something?

Also, how many contacts do I need?

My boss expects employees to have no boundaries between work and personal life. She has asked me to call during vacations and time off(no on call responsibilities), clean the toilet (since she picked a house as our office space;other agency staff work out of an office inside a hotel), and recently she assumed it was ok for me to take things from our office to another in my personal car without asking if I had enough room to do so. She speaks for me when we are dealing with collaterals and introduces me as her staff,not by name or position. She diagnoses staff as being mentally ill and told another staff member her diagnosis for me. I confronted her via e-mail (to have proof of what I said) after I tried unsuccessfuly to do in person and sent confidential copy to her boss(We have an open door policy). Can she do what she is doing and is it insubordinate for me to stick up for myself as a person?

I'm a college graduate with tons of experience, but for personal reasons, I need to work from home now. I've searched the net and there is just way too much junk out there and impossible to sort through whats actually spam or not. I am asking this for people who are already working at home (clerical, customer service, data entry, adminstration, etc) in a REAL job. This means that its a legit company and you didn't have to put any money into it. It would also be great if they offered benefits (like insurance, 401K, etc.). If any of you can share your at home job info with me, it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

OK, I would absolutely love to write for a fashion or a women's magazine one day. Journalism has always interested me. However, some people say "haha don't be stupid, that won't happen!"
I think they are right to be honest. This industry is based in London and I live nowhere near. Even when I leave uni, how on earth am I going to move there? Doesn't it cost a bomb? I mean, I already write for my college newsletter and getting my portfolio together but...I'm stuck. When I say I want to live in London, people always say "OMG why?". Is my dream too big? I'm scared I'll fail. It's all I have ever wanted to do. Please help. Be honest. :)

She previously worked full time and such a position has been kept available for her. However, she now wants to work only two days per week. This could be accomodated but only on specific days, which would be Wednesdays and Saturdays. She only wants to work two midweek days - of her choosing. Can she be told that no such position exists and that she must return to her previous full time job or nothing?

My most satisfying job experiences have been working with the elderly. I have no degree, no money and am a single mom with 4 kids to support and a house we are barely affording. I am self taught in office software and proficient. My best attribute is assessing a situation and helping them to resolve issues by finding the right help needed.
Currently in a dead end job but in a field I enjoy. Not enough money and no benefits. Any thoughts on jobs available working in geriatrics without a degree??

Today at work another store in the district called and wanted me to come work her shift at her store because she was sick. She had called everyone else at her store, and nobody could do it. I didn't want to work a 12+ hour shift. I told her no, she then got mad, said a few comments and hung up the phone on me.
When I got off the phone, my manager said in one of those phony *** voices, "What did you say to her?" Obviously, the lady at the other store, had asked her first and she refused. I told my manager, no I didn't want to work a 12+ hour shift. My manager then turned the the second in charge manger (the shift leader) and said, "You know we should start writing these KIDS up for not wanting to work."
Huh? First of all, can you do that? I don't think so. My manager seems to think I'm an idiot, and that I don't know the law.
Ok, so the question is, "Can you get written up at work for not wanting to work at another store?" Give me proof, so I can mail it out, and e-mail HER manager.

I do not have a characteristic that I would single out as a weakness because whenever I encounter a personal fault, I use that as an opportunity to begin improving and as a result I am able to overcome any of my shortcomings and work towards personal growth. Then I could say that at one point I used to get frustrated when I would do my best to accomodate or assist a customer but the customer was still not satisfied, but I have learned that if I do my absolute best... well that is the best I can do!

Okay, I need serious critiques on this approach!!
