I noticed that many times when my manager approves a Leave of Absence, shift change, or something similar, he writes on the form "Approved without precedent or prejudice".
Why does he do that?
Also, if he's been writing it repeatedly on every form for the past 2 or 3 years, does it lessen the effect of whatever it is he is trying to protect?

I'm a junior in an accredited university in the US mid-Atlantic region. I live in what is considered a medium sized city in the US. Currently I'm studying Information Systems. I have recently started an IT related job. However, it seems that the pay is a bit too low. I know I haven't graduated yet, but is $10.25 the best I can get for now? I know how to program (.net mostly) but haven't really had professional experience to prove it. Even though my current job does not currently entail programming, would I be better off trying for one that does (in my current situation)? The company I work for is a medium to large sized health insurance company.

not going to get adopted. My plan is to acquire property, build two houses, one for girls and the other for boys, and take in the children that show an interest in education. I want to give those children an opportunity to have stability, go to school, participate in extra-curriculum activities, focus on a career goal and after graduation they can attend college. Are there any good websites or books that is helpful in showing me how to go about this?

I know they have a badge that tracks how much they have been exposed to, but what other percautions make the profession safe? Are you still exposed to more that the average person even with the precautions? I know next to nothing, so start at the bottom.

Also, can you work while pregnant? Could you harm your fetus if you work for a few weeks and don't realize you have a bun in the oven?

I'm Salary, my employer cut everyone's hours to 32/week, and said we could not use our PTO, so our bi-weekly checks were less than they normally are. Checks are based upon a 40 hour week.

Im only 13, and it seems silly to start worrying about this now, but I may want to become an interpreter for the deaf if its a good job. I want to start taking courses after school in january. You can do that right?

Is it ok to talk to my boss about rumors I may be getting fired?

At the end of this week, Ive been hearing rumors that someone in our office may get fired at the end of a December (in a month and a half) yet no one has approached me about the topic or talked to me about it, making me think that I may be the one, Ive been there less than a year and Im wondering whether its me.

Is it rude to go approach my boss about this? Maybe I could start by talking to my job performance and then segway into the rumors? Or is asking the boss about rumors unprofessional?

I have not heard my name specifically mentioned, but like I said, I have not had conversation about this with any of my co-workers, which makes me uncomfortable. Any honest opinions would be great.

I would rather resign than be fired, because I do not deserve to be fired, the office is a very backstabbing atmosphere so nothing really suprises me.

When I worked at a restaurant my schedule was like this 11am-2pm then 430pm-830pm.I hated it.
Did you ever worked split shifts at any of your jobs and did you like it?
I thought most restaurants are 1st shift second shift like a factory.
I asked them to schedule me one 6-8 hour shift
but they said no.You know asking for something
when you work at a fast food is like pulling teeth.

recently my work college and i got a promotion, shes a step higher than me and still is but shes always snaping at me talking to me like an idiot and when i ask questions shes just telling me shes doing it "coz i want to". only me too and undermining me at every oppertunity. ive already spoke to the manager twice about her but hes made no attempt to sort it out. my friends think i should take it a step higher and put in an offical complaint but i think it will make things worse. i used to like my work but im now finding it hard to go in every morning.

I am looking to become either an MRI Technician, or Ultrasound Technician.I have my AA(General Ed.) degree from my local community college in California, but my major was in "Business Administration". I also have no related job experience in this current field and I'm 25 yrs. old. I also like sports a lot, if that makes any difference.

1.) Do I need to go back to school for 2 more years and study Biology?

2.) How many years should it take before I can expect to be working as an actual MRI technician?

3.) Do I need a degree in Biology IN ADDITION to completing a program at an accredited institution, or is it just 2 years then I can become an MRI technician?

4.) What is the avg. starting salary? I know its around 40K or so, but is this what they start you at?


....Anything else you that you think I should know, please feel free to share.

I'll be graduating in the spring with a bachelor's degree in Construction Management. One of my job offers has a starting salary of about $53,000

I know the cost of living has gone up tremendously so can a kid fresh out of college live off of $53,000 comfortably? Thank you;;;
