Im finding is dificult to deal with because they are all older not that nice single mothers and old people...any suggestions?

I try to ignore them but they all want to control me how they never had the chance to control their ex husbands. Its a night shift (9pm to 5am) I don't want to quit I don't think I should have to quit for that reason alone.

I am 18 years old, and I am attending a community college. I have been applying for jobs for the past 2 years, and only got one job interview. I've gone to the career center at my college, and they've helped me with applications and making a resume. I've been applying for jobs at retail stores, hotels, resturants, supermarkets, and at coffee shops. I dress nealty and clean when handing in an application, and my spelling on the applications are perfect.

I really need a job with decent pay and a steady source of income. I do have plans to become a flight-attendant for a major airline after college, but I need a job now to gain work experience. I've applied for so many jobs, I've lost track of how many jobs I applied for. I am making follow-up calls about my applications. I feel like it's impossible to get a job, even with help. I need a part-time job, because I am a college stident. Can any of you give me advice?

I am doing MBA. I am interested in operations and Supply Chain Management. But I find that most of my school mates are vying for jobs in Investment Banks or Financial companies. I am not sure which is better.

I was looking at another article and this headline came up: Craigslist Nanny Found Dead in Trunk -- http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,30578,00.html How horrific! Apparently a 19-year old in custody used the job ad as a ruse. It happened in Minnesota.

Another link: http://origin.twincities.com/ci_7299353

It just goes to show how one can't really trust an ad just because it is from a well-known job site.

I have a friend and she is no longer employeed with this company, however she has a good relationship with the district manager and a not so perfect relationship with the immediate manager. She is still in contact with the other employees who work there and they constantly complain to her about things that the immediate manager is doing that could get her fired. She says she has personally witnessed some very unethical and unprofessional behavior from the manager herself. She says that all of the employees are unhappy and threatening to quit. Only one of the employees has mentioned the situation to the district manager. My friend feels that if no one else says anyhting, then she will because she conastantly has to hear about it from her former employees. The district manager is coming this week. She wants my opinion on what she should do. What do you think?

My boss flies in and out of our office at all times of the day. Most of the time we aren't even sure where he is. On top of that I have work to do and can't hunt him down to ask him for a raise. All of my coworkers and I have been trying to figure out how we could ask him for a raise and in the mean time none of us have gotten one because it is just too wierd.
I have even tried calling him up on his cell phone a couple of times with the intention of asking for a raise or to ask when a good time to talk about a raise would be. He is instantly off about some client and before I know it he has to go. Click.
I deserve the raise, there is no doubt. I haven't had a raise in almost 2 years. The last raise I got was insultingly small. I just need advice as to how to broach the subject and how to keep my cool. How not to chicken out. Advice like for public speaking (what do I do if I start out but then feel like passing out)?

I want my dad to have a job, but the only problem is he speaks only little English and understand some of it. He is very talent in math and physics. He has a lot of experiences of shoe designing. He worked in Nick, Adida, and Reebok company in China. I see him everyday saying that he can not find any jobs that match with him. Either English or college degree problem causes the unemployment. I wonder if you can help him to find a job that related with design of shoes, belt, etc. ( He is extremely well in this, math, and physics) I am very curious if he can be a math or physics teacher. What are the requirement. Maybe he should go to a two-year college and pass the teacher-certificate exam? Please help me!!!!!

I am student getting ready to graduate with a major in IT and had a job interview today with a large company and all went well but for some reason they emailed tonight wanting a couple more professional refrences and also asked if they could contact my current boss and my college advisor. Yesterday they called my supervisor and he gave me a great refrence.

Does this mean that they are really thinking of giving me the position? I know they probably wouldn't go to all that time and trouble if they wasn't but I just really don't know what to make of it.

I just joined an organization that meets on the weekends from 2-6. I'm 16 with a car payment, a little under $155 a month. Is it possible for me to say that I cannot work 8 hour shifts on the weekend anymore? I am positive I will still have enough income per month for my expenses. My work is flexible, so what do you think their reactions would be?

I quit my job and it's been well over two weeks and they haven't sent my paycheck in the mail. How long does a job hold paychecks before they either send it in the mail or they have to send it in the mail?

I've been to several interviews and I have had people tell me that I interview very well and that my resume is very impressive. I have two jobs in the past of which I was with for about 8 months each (keep in mind I'm a college student) and I didn't give a two weeks notice. I'm guessing that this is what's keeping everyone away. could I just put the last 2 or 3 jobs on there and lie about them or will that do more damage?

I have an interview at Mervyns on Monday and while I was filling out the application I remember something about a pre employment drug test. Ive smoked weed in the past month. I dont do it frequently just sometimes.

Do they really drug test you before they hire you or is it something that they just say. I really need this job.

If they do ask me I should I just be honest about it and not lie because they definately wont hire me if I lie.

What should I do?

I really want to pursue stage lighting... I have no experience in it, and was really discouraged to stay out of it while I was in college due to friends telling me that I'd be contending with people who've been doing it since high school and had no chance. I can't afford to get a 4 year degree right now (not allegeable for loans or financial aid)... is it possible to get into the world of stage lighting with little experience? If so, how?
