Workload has increased significantly over an extended period of time which legitimizes creating a new position. Me and my co-workers have been picking up the work out of necessity but cannot sustain this increased pace forever. My manager refuses to ask administration for a new position. Why would my manager make this decision? What effect might this have on me and my co-workers?

Perl/PHP Programmer with 5 years experience for a 2 year old web company with high growth and backed by Sequoia Ventures.

The job market is great, so I'm guessing $125K, but am I overshooting too far?

A private employer unexpectedly tells 250 office workers their positions are being relocated to another city in a different state in two weeks.

They all have the option of transferring to the new site.

For those who can not transfer, are they covered by Unemployment? For how long?

Thanks all!

I'm already employed and studying at uni but am hoping to pick up extra work throughout the summer holidays. The position I'm applying for is bar work- pouring drinks etc. I've read a few answers to other similar questions, but generally for bar work I've found places like their girls to be attractive, so I thought it wouldnt be a bad idea to include a head shot. So photo or not? What do you think?

I'm considering a degree in nursing. I have 4 questions: 1) Do nurses have to work variable shifts (such as night shifts from 12am to 7am, for example) or could they choose what shifts they want? If yes, would obtaining an A.S. in Nursing (and RN license) as opposed to a LPN license increase the choices I have when choosing the work shifts?

2) Do nurses ever have to bring work home? I don't think they do, but I just want to be sure.

3) Do nurses have to work overtime (more than 8 hours a day) , especially as a new nurse, or is it optional?

4) Are health care benefits provided for full-time as well as part-time nurses?

Thanks.

Ive been working as a Customer Service Rep for the last 5-6 years (Im 22) and I end up working in POS locations where the only way you get ahead is if you sleep with someone or kiss their ***...Which I would never do.

I dont usually whine but I dunno...what should I do words of advice?besides quit and get a new job (already looking) Has this happened to you?

My boss asked me in to work today and lectured me about a couple things. The main one was that I was not allowed to discuss my pay with other people who work at my store. He told me that there were actual privacy laws that I cannot do this. I think he's full of it. Is there actually a law out there that says I cannot tell my coworkers how much I make? Thanks!

I've been desperatly trying to get hold of my previous school in order to get a copy of a report from my year 10 work experience & a reference from one of my teachers to add to my CV. I understand ex-students will not be the highest priority but after emails, phone calls, letters I am getting nowhere. Can anyone think of any way I can work around this?
