so I got a new part time job and when I was hired I was told I was PART TIME working a couple days a week. I've been there for a month now and have been working any where from 4-6 days a week, ON TOP of working a second job that they KNEW about before hiring me. I have worked my other job now for two years and this is my main job with insurance so I can't cut hours there. How do I ask them whats going on and if its going to change, as of right now they are NOT being flexable and not working with my other schedule with doesn't work for me!

call a place that I mailed a resume to after about a week? I really want the job but feel like since they have not called me that they probably already filled the position.
Thanks.

When do you give it to prospect employers? Mail it with resume so you look good and get a call or wait until interview for office jobs?

I'm in Texas. My workplace has recently suspended a few coworkers not knowing what day they'd be back to work.
On my opinion, if somebody gets suspended, then the employer should advise the employee the return date. We're under contract, so im not sure if that has to do something with it.

I would like to preface this by saying it doesn't affect me personally - I'm not in this profession - so I don't need actual advice. I'm just curious. It occurs to me that when you advertise a job, you can't specify that only a certain gender, age range, race etc can apply. So when it comes to acting auditions how do they get round this? Is it actually legal or is it just that nobody bothers kicking up a fuss? Please note I am not saying that it's wrong to be able to specify who you're looking to cast, just interested where it stands under the law. (Am talking about UK law as I know nothing of US employment law!)

S Computer technicians?
Hallo, i just graduated from high school last school year and i wanted to pursue a career in Accounting but i cannot afford the cost at my college. I just got a plan B to work as i save for my tuition but something else just popped up....it's a training program as a computer technician and you are paid to be a student and 100% tuition and all supplies necessary are paid. Its only a 15 weeks program and then you get certified. I wanted an advice from a computer technician out there. THX!
P?S: But i'm going to college for accountancy after this program because by then, things will be better for me instead of staying of waiting.

I love travelling and I would like to know if there are any jobs where you can get paid to travel for free. I have researched some stuff on Google about getting jobs on cruise ships and I think that's a good option. Are there any other jobs where I can get paid to travel?

I have been unemployed for 3 months now with no luck, so I signed up for a temp agency. They called me tell me they got a call from a company I interviewed for back in '05. I was the runner-up. They wanted me for a temp to perm position that fits my skills to a T plus the salary is great. It's work I love to do, so I jumped at it. I've been there for 1 week & everyone there tells me they want to hire me. Great, BUT...The company is located next to the Philly airport & south of the 3 football/baseball/concert arenas. I live 45 min by car (w/no traffic). I decided it's best to use public trans. So to get there, I take the regional rail train to center city Philly, hop on the subway, jump onto bus & then walk a few yards. Then I repeat the process in reverse. The bus picking up to take me home, doesn't run frequently. I've been working 9-5:15 & still get home about 7-7:30. On average, it takes me over an hour either way.
What to do? I have little debt, rent +. No kids, just hubby.
