I'm set up to job shadow my orthodontist (in hopes of employment) but I'm clueless as of what to wear! I'm assuming my scrubs wouldn't be necessary since I probably wouldn't actually be working, but I'm afraid of being too "formal" when I accompany her. What are your thoughts on a wardrobe?

I have worked for my dad in construction on and off sense I was 8, mostly in the summers and have bin given the keys to the work place. (I mostly worked In a retirement community for people 55 and older, where I built the houses and cleaned and helped up-keep the place. There is also and wetland stream, thats 10ish feet wide that runs about 3/4 of a mile long. I cleaned yearly because algae infested it.)

For the past year I have run sound for my church( setting up and tearing down the stage by myself, and mixing the music. I also have bin trusted to the keys to the church.

So do think I could get a job in places like
subway, game stop, and other businesses in that category.

I am 15 and turn 16 on Feb 6, I have looked into the laws and I would be able to legally work where I live and the places I am applying for

thanks a bunch

I asked for Christmas off a couple months ago. I am Roman Catholic and I practice my faith. My boss told me I'm going to have to work Christmas. I'm very upset about this. I was thinking of quitting or giving my two-weeks notice because of this. Am I being unreasonable? What should I do? Thanks for any replies.

My recruiter called me today and said that I passed the interview. However, I will find out if I'll get hire or not after she run my background check. I'm really really worried and nervous right now. I pretty sure that I don't have any criminal records, but I'm worry on my credit check. I don't know my credit score, but I knew that it pretty low due to my late payments and over limits for last couple of years. However, I've been trying to make my payment on time for the last year (although I still have some late payment because I was jobless) until now. I hope I can get this stable job in order to pay off my bills (please don't get me wrong that I want to steal money from the bank ok!), and it part of my careers too. Now I'm afraid that I won't get hire if they see my credit score is too low.

Do you think they will not hire me because of this? Do you know how they will judge on my credit background??

I have this SUPER easy job but I screw up alot (unintentionally). I got the last straw when I realized 2day when I got from work that I wrote all the dates of 2day on 2 dcmbr when we're the 3rd. I don't want my suprvisor to keep me cuz she feels sry 4 me. Is it a good idea if I tell her I screwed up AND that I understand if she fires me?

If I was my supervisor I'd honestly fire me. So is it a good or bad idea to tell her that she can fire me because I know I screw up alot?
Sry if I'm asking this alot..

I like him very much as a friend but I have apprehensions about working directly for him because I don't want our friendship to suffer. Could this work? What would I have to do or say to make this be successful? Has anyone ever done this and maintained a good friendship with the friend? Again, it has the potential to be a a very well paid position. Advice please?

with the way THEY do things. i have been in this trade (cabinetry) for 12 years, i have more experience then anyone there except the owner and one other person but there tools and machines are different and the way they build and install there cabinets is different then they way i have always done it so i have to become familiar with these new processes. this to me seems perfectly normal but for some reason some people there insist on treating me like i am an idiot and constantly question my experience and ability as if they cant even comprehend that i might be unfamiliar with certain things. i am so frustrated by this and its so offensive to me but i don't really know how to addr4ess it. i don't even want to work there at this point on account of the lack of respect people show me. should i just be completely blunt with them and tell them there out of line for there comments or is it a better show of strength and maturity to just let it go.

I have a software degree and want to get into programming. Most programming jobs are looking for 2yrs experience in programming, but i have 2yrs exp in tech support.
Would getting a software tester job first be a good stepping stone between tech support and programming? They dont seem to require as much experience, so im more hopeful of being able to get a job.

I am in a dispute with my former employer regarding unemployment benefits. I don't know what the human resources department will say about me and I have thought about asking prospective employers not to contact them. What do managers usually think when you ask them not to contact your previous employer?

i lied on a resume to bridge a few months of not working. i said i worked at a company for a few months more than i actually did. is there anyway the new company can check, besides asking an old manager directly?...should i just not list a phone number on the old job if i ever have to write down the reference, it was from 2 years ago.

i hate lying and i regret putting that on the resume, is it common for people to do?
