Careers & Employment - June 2007

I am 16 years old, and I have a high school diploma and a paralegal certificate. I've researched this all over online, but I haven't found anything that says that a minor CAN'T be a paralegal or legal assistant (BTW, I live in SW Washington/Portland, OR area). I think the hardest thing would be getting someone to hire me at such a young age... But does anyone out there know if a minor can be employed as a paralegal?

Is that legal? I live in California, and I get paid salary. However, when I do the math and divide the hours by the amount I am paid per paycheck, it is less than minium wage. Can my employer do this to me just because I'm earning salary?

I had a second interview yesterday. The guy told me that I was one of three to get a second interview and the last person that they needed to see a second time. He told me he would call me today and let me know that either they wanted to offer me the job, they offered the job to someone else or they decided to keep looking. It's 4:30PM and I haven't heard anything. Should I call him or just wait for him to call me like he said he would?

To add to my question about a second job and moving. I am not getting any sleep as it is so getting up at 3 will make it worse. I am not a coffee drinker and without being completely moved into my new place making breakfast is impossible and grocery shopping-no time for that. I am beat-about to fall asleep and I have 1/2 left in job # 1. I will be slower than molassess at job #2 tonight.

I need to get a job. According to my mom, I need to get a job by next week, or no phone, internet, or car.
Now, I have a boyfriend who I only get to see on the weekends(he lives in Orlando, I live about 2 hours away).
I'm 16, and I know I'm probably going to have to work at least one weekend day.
I usually see him every other weekend. Would I be able to say that usually every other weekend I go out of town to "vist family" or something? Or do you think wherever I end up getting hired won't let me have every other weekend off?
We've been going out for a year and 7 months, and the long distance thing isn't too hard, but it will be when I can only see him for 1 and a half days every other week for the next year until I graduate.
Any thoughts?

What do insurance companies use to determine your insurable?
I just applied for this awesome job that I really want. It is now depending on that the company finds me insurable for driving a company vehicle. I havent had any traffic tickets or anything since 7/04. But prior to that, I had a suspension for too many points. The points were from speeding tickets, mostly 5 overs. The points have dropped off by now, but the violations are still on my record. Anyone out there work for an insurance company and know if I would be insurable? Or work for a company that uses driver checks and what they look for?

hi to all ,
I have been accused of stealing from this employer after 9 months of leaving the company. I have been arrested by the police but not charged but i am on police bail till for a month or so. I have left the company for 9 months now . The police came to my new work place and arrested me , to question me . My old boss used to sell me items for cash ( no receipts / paperwork) . I would then after a while sell the items on an auction site for a small profit (hoping) .The old boss would just pocket the money. (Saves giving the money to the taxman) Everyone is happy . untill this happens . I need help . How can I get even? or clear my name ? I am very concerned as I do not think that I have done anything wrong
