Careers & Employment - August 2007

Hi:

I am trying to get signed and stamped pay stubs from my previous employer from the past 1 year but haven't been provided one till now...I must have at least 100 request mails but to no avail. Though I have received assurances time and again that I will receive those signed and stamped pay stubs, I havent been given one.

I would personally like to lodge a formal complaint against them...Could anybody tell me where could I do it?

Thanks and Regards

Amit

I can only do one of these, since they are both time-consuming and I have other demands on my time (namely, a husband and a 2-year-old). I'd like the money, but I also would like the prestige of the journal. Thanks for your thoughts!

I'm looking for a job and UPS is hiring in my area. The ad says that applicants must comply with UPS appearance guidelines. I'm a male with long hair, does anyone know if I will be required to cut my hair for this job?

My husband has both a bachelors and a master in music education and has 8 years experience as a band director. He's considering changing careers and wants to work with computers. He's very knowledgable about computers and troubleshooting. He thinks he would like to work as a network administrator, but other computer-type jobs might be considered. What kind of qualifications would he need (mind you he has no experience, so education type of qualifications)? And what kind of salaries are normal for a job like this?

I work at a day care center as a teacher in the two's room. I just recently got my degree and have been in this room since the summer. With school starting enrollment is high so they need people bad but I am realizing how much I don't like my job. I feel really guilty for wanting to put in my two weeks because my boss has tried so hard to help me with all the things I struggle with but I am not happy and the children deserve someone who enjoys their job.

She is not only verbally abusive to me but to my coworkers. She will literally rant and rave at her employees. She was screaming so loudly at one of us one time, that the construction workers remodeling down the hall could hear her (they were talking about it later). We have tried talking to her about it, but she gets mad and defensive. HR won't do anything about it because she brings in so much money. I turned in my notice on Friday, I can't take anymore and I'm severely depressed. The last AA before me said she was able to go off her meds and doesn't get migraines anymore since she quit. Transferring to another department won't work because she harassed the last AA in her new dept. so that she had to leave the company altogether just to get away from her. The AA before that is in another department in the same company and still gets tears in her eyes when she talks about her time with my boss. I can't afford an attorney. What, if anything can I do? Isn't what she's doing illegal?

i'm going to begin an americorps volunteer position shortly, working through habitat for humanity. i was wondering if anybody else had a similar experience to share that might be helpful? especially if you used the position as a stepping stone to something bigger when your tour was done.

I have a job offer that pays 20% more than I was earning at my last job. However, I have had very positive interviews for another position that would pay approx 40% more than last job. The 1st job is with a very stable progressive company in an administrative position, M-F with good benefits. The other job is with a successful company but working w/ends and will be more pressure and is store based rather than a corporate environment. I feel as tho I can do either job altho the lower paid job seems a little more laid back and the promotional prospects are better.

Which one should I go for?

PS. I did already try a store based position sim iliar to the higher paying job and I hated it.

also, i am involved with my school's computer club and take part in updating and rennovating the computer lab, the library's computers, and such. not sure if that helps, but just in case.

Seems unfair. They have 10 minutes off for every hour. Surely this means that they should earn 16.66666% less than a non-smoker.

I applied at a few stores using their online application but I'm not really sure if they were hiring, can I still call and ask about the status of my application?
