P.S. The person to come up with the best site would be chosen as a best answer!
Thanks again.

I have an application here to a telecommunication business. It says I can submit a resume along with it. Now I've mostly been a cashier for my whole job field and don't offer anything special. Do you think it's necessary?

I've been working at a retail job for almost a year. I would really, really like to quit and go back to school. If I go to school I want it to be my complete focus. I still live with my parents so I don't have to pay for housing and I can the train straight to school. However I'm not sure how to quit my job. Any ideas. I'd like to leave right after Christmas.

I am currently searching for a temporary seasonal job, specifically as a barista. Although I do not have a BA at present (currently studying for it), I do have qualifications, such as previous culinary school education, that may make me appear as overly qualified. How do I 'dress down' my resume?

Are there good clinics or hospitals in Tiajunna? Is it worth to travel to India or Canada for surgeries and health care? It seems impossible here and so outrageously expensive-we just neglect most of the care we need. Anyone had any success with treatments outside the US or advice that you can share?

Hi..why is it so hard to find a job that works around your schedule? I don't need to work, my husband does a very nice job at providing for us but having a little extra around the holidays is always nice..but I can't work before 3 -4 through the week and everywhere i have applied that hurts me. I do have a interview for Sears on Monday but so far AAFES, best buy, petsmart, macy's, jcpenny all told me they need someone flexiable. So what is a person in college suppose to do? I mean i can't just quit that and i have kids and a husband. UGH. Do you think i am going to have any luck? Will anyone hire someone so limited?

I Just started a new job in August. I feel that my coworkers are not very open. There's 2 of us who are new in my workplace but I feel that they are more open to the other person. I feel this because they have small talks, whereas if im there, we both do our jobs and do not chat about anything other than work-related issues. It might be personality differences...It takes a while for me to warm up to new people. What can I do?

I got a job a few weeks ago.I haven't started officially working yet,because I've been doing drug testing and all this paperwork.I have school from 8:00 AM-5:30 PM, in my application I put down that I would work from 6:00-10:00 PM. My only problem is in all the time it takes me to catch my bus and change in to my uniform, I have realized that their is just no way that I can start at 6:00,without being late.I'll be talking to my manager on Monday to give him my work permit, but my question is would it sound bad if I told him on Monday that I can't start at 6 and would be better if I started at 6:30 instead?
Does that make me look bad since I haven't officially started work? Do you think I would lose this job? My manager is very nice but I'm just scared to tell him that. Please Help! Thanks.

I'm currently an Electronics Technician in the US Navy. I'm getting out in about 2 months, and am currently searching for a job. During my online searching, I'm finding positions for Electronics Technician I, II, and III... What do these mean, the I, II, and III? Is it by company, or is there a standard. Also, I'm having trouble finding Electronics Technician jobs doing a search for just that. Should I be searching for terms other than "Electronics Technician", and does anyone know of any companies hiring for this type of position in either the Hampton Roads area in Virginia, Southeastern Indiana, or around Lousiville, Kentucky?

I have three degrees (BA in Communications, BFA in Creative Writing, and a MA in English Education). I cannot, for the life of me, seem to find any sort of job outside of the education field (which I no longer wish to pursue). Can putting all three degrees on my resume hurt my chances at being hired or considered for a job?

Hi there,

I have a request from a senior coworker for me to stop by and touch base w/ him at least once per day to make him feel more comfortable with the level of communication.

I understand that and I am totally willing to do that. What I would like to know is how other people feel about their coworkers stopping by to touch base?

I want to give adequate communication. At the same time, I don't want to be a pest!

Oh yeah, I've only been on this job for like 2 months.

Thanks!
