He was caught falisfying information and I am kinda surprised that he did not get fired. Ever since then, he has had a chip on his shoulder convinced that everything is not fair and that everybody is against him because he is black and gay. He makes snide remarks at everybody, particulary me, and never stops pouting. I am on the verge of blowing up at him, but I do not want to risk my job. How can I handle this?

Usually when you went to second interview after how long later you received a job offer from a company.

I gave three weeks notice yesterday to my supervisor! I dont have a job lined up though. This has been in the works for a while, so it wasn't a hasty decison trust me. I have money saved up for about 2 months to live off, and I have been looking for a job for several months now to no avail. My supervisor is horrible (see other questions I have asked in the past for details). My question is: What are other avenues besides networking and applying to companies I can go to try and find another job. Recruiters: How I can I really find a job quick? I am not to worried because if need be I can work at a mall for an inbetween job. I have my bachelors degree, and I have already signed up with a temp agency and I am leaving on good terms. I have told people I know I am looking for another job and I have been applying to places left and right.

I am just so scared. i have never quit anything in my life and have never been out of work. I feel so free though, now I just need a plan. Any advice?

First I had a phone interview on May 25. When she called in the end she will let me know if she wants me in for second interview or not by next week but then after few hrs I get a call she want me to come in for second interview on June 1. Now I went to interview on June 1. I was interviewed by two people. Both were managers and one of the mangers in the end said she will let me know in one or two weeks. They have not called so far. I did send thank you letter on June 4. I didn't get no reason to the letter and I called her on June 11 and left a message but it said she will be out of her office from June 11-13. I think interview went well but why I keep having negative feeling then. I really like this job a lot. I didn't call the second manager because I didn't have her number plus I think it be too much. They said I asked good questions and I could tell they were happy with the way I answered

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could offer a bit of advice, I would ask friends but no one else in our circle of friends have children yet. The thing is this..... I work for an educational establishment and get term time holidays. Normally I would get a job through the summer to top up my wages. As I am 29 weeks pregnant, I didnt think anyone would employ me , although I understand that it would be classed as discrimination (but we all know companies can get through this one way or another). However, I am pleasantly pleased to say that a call centre has offered me a job.... As the training will be 4 weeks , it means that I will only be able to do that before going off on the 13th of August (when my mat leave starts at other employer). I was wondering if, as my new job will only be approx 16 hrs or less per week, is there a minimum that can be worked whilst on mat leave? I am not being greedy, please dont think this, I am located in Scotland.

My job called me at home last night at 945pm, they do this all the time, I am going to look for another job. I have gotten calls from work first thing Sunday morning, and as late as 1030pm. I am not a manager, I am paid by the hour.I cant leave the phone off the hook because of things going on with my family.If I dont answer the regular phone or am not at home my boss calls my cell. I have been woken up on weekend mornings, late at night, interrupted during dinner, had weekend plans interrupted, etc. I have asked that they not call me at home or on my cell during non work hoursunless it is a TRUE emergency especially late at night, they stop for a week or 2 then it starts again. The call last night at 945 was to reprimand me for a VERY minor mistake(we all make mistakes) Potential employers will ask why I am looking for another job, I am thinking of telling them it is because I am on call and that was not part of the job descrption.

Can you choose not to answer in an interview how much is your current salary? In the place I currently work it's very well known that all employees are underpaid (small firm, etc) however, I heard that salaries represent the "value" of a person in the market. My current salary is way to low from the average. I have an interview in a few days and I'm sure they may ask me how much I'm making at my current job. I don't want that number affect a fair salary based on the market. Any suggestions? Thanks so much for your help!

I'm 18 looking to take a 6 month training program in a radio station either to become a disc jockey or a sports announcer and I was wondering if I should train here for 6 months and then try and move to California or move and train there? Do you think if that I would have a good shot of finding a radio job in Cali. Also would it be smarter to choose Disc Jockey or Sports Announcer, I love both but do not know which would be a smarter career choice. I don't want to live where I am and I never have so Cali is where I want to be.

Unfortunately, I think I work one right now as a security officer. I have been a security officer for 1.5years. Within the next year to 1.5years I will have a better job. Hopefully working as a postal carrier or actuary.
