Alright, so the other day i found this job listing on craigslist.com(san diego) about a new deli/sandwich shop that was supposed to open late september. So i e-mailed him/her ( kym udall ---you decide) and we scheduled an interview at starbucks at 3:00p.m. So i went and clueless as i am i realized i had no clue as to who i was looking for, (i mean no phone#, appearance, exact location) so i waited for abou 20 mins but didn't show up. So I e-mailed him/her back saying that i was a complete fool for not asking for a number and she/he responded by saying that "oh im sorry, but i got stuck at another store down at chula vista, and couldn't make it, but heres my phone number--- ---- and thanks for sticking in there". So my question is, should i call her/him for another interview or should i wait for him/her to respond back on hotmail. I need a job right now. ? thanks, i don't want to sound desperate for a job. but i do need a job. what should i say? thanks.

I get off work at 7am then I have an interview at 10:30am- when I'm typically sound asleep. I'll have a chance between work and the interview to get some breakfast and a cup of coffee, but I'm still worried I'll look tired and that will effect my chances of getting the job. Do you think I should mention I just got off work or will that seem like I'm fishing for pity?

Last year (my first year in the organization) I have been awarded an 8% salary increase. This year it is only 5 %. At the same time I receive more commissions now because I have more of my projects developed. What that decrease in the salary increase could mean? Could that indicate that I am not considered a important employee as I used to be considered last year? Shall I discuss this with my manager?

There is a guy here who chats on IM all day. It is unfair to have to work for my paycheck, but this guy gets paid for doing nothing. Would it be better to talk directly to his boss, or send an anonymous note to his boss?

I've been working with my uncle in his company for 2 years now all legit on the payroll....

i do wet rooms and bathrooms/Tiling etc....

i started with him when i was 21 years old and i thought it would be nice for a change in carreir and i do enjoy it...

seeing that i knew nothing he said he would pay me £50 a day which is fair enough, tho the last few months i have been thinking, i've been doing some jobs on my own, i am good at tiling now... i want to ask him, if i could have a payrise, i feel a little scared to ask for some reason.

what do you think is the best way to go about it, and how much more should i ask for.??

The care home in which i work has rencently been taken over by new owners. They are penny pinching in every aspect! Yes i know it's a businnes BUT the patients and staff are all suffering. The food they now buy is crap.....the pads used are not effective and staff are going sick left right and centre as morale is so low. We have also been told we will see no pay rise for 3 years! this is to bring our pay in line with the other 8 homes they own!
What bothers me the most is the cut backs on what the patients get for their money! They are paying more for less!

I'm doing a project for work about working in construction. Have you noticed any red flags in the sector that you'd like to share, such as being underpaid because you were paid under the table, or the feeling that you were/are in a dead end job, or only working seasonally, etc?

I work retail while going to school full-time. Even though I'm barely part-time I work every weekend and have no time to do work for my demanding class load. How do I respectfully quit so I can still get a good future reference? I'm obviously not good with this kind of thing so any help is appreciated.

I am a manager at a business. I never take days off for sickness. OMG, I am so sick to my stomach. Should I leave for the day. I am supposed to be here for a 12 hour day. They could make it without me, but I feel bad putting the burden on another manager.

I got laid off from my job last winter. I have subsequently been working temp jobs off/on for the past 8 months. I've submitted resumes through Monster, HotJobs and Startribune.com, but I haven't landed a permanent job yet.

Are there any employment agencies out there who deal specifically with placing people directly in jobs without the temporary stipulation? I also have 10 years in my field.

Please let me know if you know of a company you'd recommend or if you're a headhunter for a specific company that you can vouch for!

Thanks!

- what are the ways to break the ice if you have no prior experience, where and how to start
- can you make a living out of it, suppose you write for several magazines, can this be your full time job
- if you're an english major, what are the topics you can write on - just fiction/philosophy/world affairs? is this in high demand so you can earn enough money to support yourself. thanx a lot

Unfortunately, my profession has become one of many that are now SALARY positions. As a computer specialist, it seems most employers want to hire you for 40 hours a week, but then they almost always want you to work more than that (for 'FREE'), because we are salary.

The employers put peer pressure on you by comparing your work ethic to others who have succumbed to their bosses pressures to work more hours, ...for FREE!!

Now this is not fair at all, and in fact seems to be an unethical work practice that should be against the U.S. Wage and Labor laws. They are just exploiting the use of 'salary' to get more FREE labor. This isn't fair. Salary should be for top management and sales force workers.

Obviously we could find another job, but most other companies are doing the same thing now days.

The only answer seems to be to find another career field, but this isn't practical either. I only want to work 40 hours a week, even at a lower pay.

What are your suggestions?

Well I got my degree in commerce. I hated accounting with a passion and thought that I would do a trade. I did floor laying/tile setting in the summers.

So I'm an electrician. I am a helper but I already took my 1st year schooling and by the time I'm an apprentice(3 months probation) I will be up 600 hours, half of my first year hours. My plan in my degree was to start my own business. The average age of an electrician here is 50 so most of them are going to be retiring soon so the opportunities are there. They also bill $70/hr plus materials and markup.

So they promised 8 hour days and benefits. Well I am 400 hours into it and work 40 hours overtime a month with no time and a half ever(In my contract), no benefits ever(Also in my contract), and $4 less an hour than other employers. Will it look bad if I quit right after the 3 month mark and I get my apprentice papers signed? I need the reference but the employer lies constantly and everyone hates thier jobs.

I dread work
