Careers & Employment - October 2007

I have applied at a college and when they did my background check, an arrest for Assault showed up. I was not guilty, and the charges were dismissed from the judge. The school is investigating this further but since they already offered me the job with a letter, since I am innocent and was only arrested, is it illegal if they take back their job offer????

My friend is very qualified but everytime she goes for a job interview, no matter how great it goes, she is never called back. She is beginning to think it is her weight.

She weighs 300+

Im trying to decide between becoming a Resp. Therapist or an RN....Im a male, enjoy social interaction, caring, soft spot for people who are hurting, and generally like helping people... i also have asthma, so i figured i can relate to respiratory patients well.... then theres the matter of school...ive already been accepted to a Resp. program, but its quite a bit more expensive than the communtiy college's RN program would be (providing I'm accepted after prereqs). Can you please list the pros and cons of each occupation? i know nursing hours are better, and it has better pay...what are the other perks of each, from education through the actual careers? Which is more fulfilling? More easily balanced with a family? More challenging/ able to keep my interest? And, which is harder overall? Any and all help greatly appreciated, but please think answers through and answer honestly...it means a lot to me. =)

I truly want to be a pharmacist, I'm 13 right now and I think pharmacy interests me. Can you give me the up and down's of being a pharmacist? How much do they make a year? What do you do? Is it hard? How long do you have to go to school? Have you ever wished you weren't one if you are one? Do you enjoy it? Where should I work? What place would be the best to work in (CVS/ or a hospital)? Do you get a lot of free time? How often do you get a day off? What are your hours? All basic questions!! I don't wanna regret becomign one if i do... Is there anything else that you suggest for me to do if you think pahrmacy is bad?

I have 12 years of retail experience and then took 4 years off. I was wanting to get into a new area and went to work at a local grocery store (which is union) and like it but I am concerned about the livability of the job. I am relocating in a year and wonder if I should go back to retail and retail management instead of grocery. What would you recommend?

I was a no call, no show today, because I got into a car accident on my way home from my girlfriends. I jarred my neck really bad, went back to her place rested and totally forgot to call work before my shift started.
Now its like seven hours later and I need to call them. Problem is, I feel bad that I forgot. My neck still hurts and I don't really want to work tommorow. What should I do?

I have my resume blasted on every site and I am getting nothing. My little brother was killed 2 1/2 months ago and I was let go right after I got back from the funeral (even though I was told by my boss that everything would be fine when I got back). Granted I was there only a month and was never written up or had any evaluations done, when I asked why I was being let go all I got was the "This is a right to work state." I am not sure if I am getting a bad reference from my old job but I can't even get temp agencies to call me for an interview. Any advise would be more then welcomed.
