I want to ask the human resource persons out there or even the people who knows about this query. I recently graduated from college however before I graduated I had an accident and the vision of my left eye was greatly affected. I can say I can do normal stuff like driving, swimming, etc. Will companies accept me with only one eye working?

Suppose people in your field make from 70-200k. You're new to the industry and fresh out of college. Do you ask for 100k or 50k?

I work on a monthly schedule that doesnt change for a whole month and I usually get my work schedule a week after the month has began. I end up having to cancel plans i.e. doctors visits, weekend getaways, baby shower...etc.. I just need to know if they are required to give me an adequate amount of time so I can schedule my outside life around it.

I have been applying for jobs with the state of Fl in regards to being a probation officer. Two weeks ago, I signed a conditional offer of employment. When I called to check on the status of my physical and drug screen, I was told there was a hiring freeze. So....I was crushed. Anyways, I decided to try one more avenue....nurse recruiting. I have a little background in that....although it is 75 miles away from me. I went on the interview today and did very very well. The woman who interviewed me kept trying to get her boss to interview me so I wouldn't have to come back for a 2nd interview....long drive. She told me her boss "loved me" and that they definitely wanted me and I would be starting around Dec. 17th and that she just needed to do a background check and verify previous employment. I have gone through this before with the state of Fl and then been disappointed. Should I really think that I have the job? It went so well. Do they usually offer the job on the first interview?

because promotions don't pay that much better and you work twice as many hours and it limits your ability to learn new skills?
They say you should never stay at one company longer than 5 years because you will stagnate, and the only purpose a job serves is that it pays you to learn new skills. So you shouls learn as much as you can (on the job and off), meet a few good mentors along the way, refuse any promotions, and then move on and learn something new at the next job. And no two jobs should be similar too.
Is all of this true?
sounds pretty radical but awesome to me !
