Careers & Employment - September 2007

Hello everyone,
Well, I'm about to turn 16 and I've decided I'd like to start working. I need a good job, but I don't want it having to do with flipping burgers or frying fries or anything like that. Also, I don't want to work at like Wal-Mart or some other shopping market franchise. I'd like to work possibly at the mall, or even be a caddie at a local golf course if at all possible. Or even work at the local hospital. Do you think I'll be able to land these types of jobs living in TX?
Also, do I need a work permit? If so, where do I go and get one?

Thanks,
Jalapeno10
P.S.- If you have some other job ideas, I'd love to hear them.

If a boss oe employer refuses you a job as you have dreadlocks or coloured hair or a goth, of have tattoss etc.


You and mates hold them down, tattoo their face so they have goth like features or a tattoo. Shave their head and superglue or stitch into their head things like plantic neon green hair extentions


Ie if they have a problem with your coloured hair or tattooos or alternative looks in general...


Why it it not allowed for you to turn them so they look alternative and then they get saked for not looking right and refused a job and see how they like it.


Similar principle to turning a a white racsit back for a while and sticking him someahere away from friends



Whilst at it.

If bosses sack you or otherwise attack your work place relationship why cant you break up their family or marriage.

Or if they exploit sweat shop labour.

Kidnap them take them to a sweat shop where can speak the language and see how they like it.

And their kids too

people keep naggin me to get a better education, so I can be payed really good and live nicely. but I'm fine with small money. I love to live humble. so about the food. I always buy a bag of apples for 2€ and its a lot of apples. another thing is that I'm a vegeterian and I dont even eat a lot. I run and exercise quite a lot but I dont need to eat tons of food like other people. even after a hard working day. its been like this for years. and a garden provides quite a lot of food.

next thing is I dont even want a car. nothing. I can walk or take a bike. things arent far if you live in the city. so even my future kids can walk to school. but when I go somewhere, I take a train and that happens every two weeks. so I really dont spend that much money on transportation.

internet is cheap, I mean whats 20€ and I get everything? all the fun with games and movies and chating with my friends. I dont even use the phone and TV. and computers dont spend so much electricity.

I worked as a Manager for a large car dealership in CT. THe owner started to email me that he wanted to meet me for drinks, he said if I played my cards right he would see I got places. I never responded to any of them. The last one said that my job was in jeopardy. I could not tell my General Manager, that is the owner's son-in-law. I quit the job and took one at less than half the pay. I am still very angry. I went to see a few lawyers who said I had a great case...but needed a large amount up front. I don't know what to do at this point. Please advise. Please don't make fun, this is serious to me.

I'm 18, and I'm attending the University of Colorado at Denver Health and Science Center. I'm currently a Biology major (should I change to Pre-Pharm?) and I have a low paying job at a woman's clothing store. I have in the past, however, interned at a hospital as well as 2 years of volunteering at one. I'm thinking about working at a pharmacy...what would it be like? Salary? How else should I prepare for Pharmacy School?

Any info would be useful! =)

I have completed all of the RN pre reqs..and have realized that nursing might not be right for me seeing as I am a male...and I just dont think it fits my personality.

So I am wondering what the typical work week and pay is like for a radiologist? I'd also like to get some feedback on the ins and outs of a days work as a radiologist. thanks.

I have a coworker that is so lazy and is bringing my department down. He is not productive and is extremely unprofessional. I have tried many things to motivate him to no avail. He's pretty much just getting a paycheck for doing nothing so he'll never quit on his own. Any ideas on how I can get him fired without implicating myself?

Ok, I just got hired 2 weeks ago at this place, Zpizza. It wasn't my first choice, but I just needed a job and my friend got a job there so I applied and got hired.

Well, I applied for this other place a month ago, Harris Teeter, but I didn't get hired. It was my first choice since it pays better and I get more hours. Well on thursday I was there since I delivered some pizza over there, chatted them up, and they offered me a job.

Should I leave my current job? This new job would pay an extra $2.50/hour ($9.50/hour vs $7/hour). Also, I like my current job, but I'm only getting 15 hours a week and my friend who works there is driving me ABSOLUTELY INSANE. She is way too bossy and she isn't even above me in rankings. We have the same position.

Would it look bad to quit after 2 weeks? If you think I should quit, what should I tell my managers when I put in my 2 weeks notics.
