I'm interviewing for a position next week that I am excited about...the duties are exactly what I want to be doing and the compensation is very fair. The only problem is that several of my former coworkers also used to work with the woman who would be my immediate supervisor and have said she is very difficult to work with. I haven't had a chance to speak with them more in detail, but even when I was working with them I would constantly hear about this woman and how crazy she was. I'm in the position right now where I don't like my job, but I don't want to move into another job where I won't like my boss for the sake of changing jobs for better money.

There is also a potential opportunity with a former boss who I adored and I am very interested in that position too...so it's not like I would be out of options. Any suggestions?

I know of a few types of lawyers, but I am wondering if there are more that I don't know of. So if you could just give me a list or something it would really help.

-Thanks again,

I think having a degree may have worsened my chances of full time employment, and i dont know what to do about it, should i take my degree off my CV. Start fresh? i have been unemployed 6 months out of this year. Im not picky either, i love the idea of being a checkout assistant, but i had no reply from any of the supermarkets applied for. My CV has been described as very impressive by interviewers in the past. but i have only been invited to two interviews all year.
Am i missing something? are there no real training opportunities left? i am willing and able to learn new things, but the opportunities are not available to even try. any advice would be much appreciated.

I recently began working for Walmart as an overnight stocker. A co-worker told me that you get paid a dollar more for working on Sunday. I was wondering if anyone could verify this? Also, as overnight I am off on "Sunday". However, I worl Saturday night 10pm to 7am. When the clock rollovers at midnight does that qualify as working on Sunday? If the above is true would I be payed that extra dollar?

Why do I bother emailing my CV to recruitment agencies with covering letters, to apply for jobs, only to be ignored and never even recieve an acknowledgement?

I have to wonder why I'm wasting my time here ..... I'm a good candidate, I have experience in the field that I'm applying for, I have a well written CV and covering letter.

So what's missing?

Maybe I should just become dole scrounger as they seem to have more luck than me right now!

What is YOUR career or job? What is your career and what type of education or requisites were needed? I am in my early 20's with a college degree in psychology (but not necessarily dedicated to that subject matter) and still trying to figure out a path. So just let me know what you do so that I might get some ideas. Thanks a bunch!

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what they thought a person who gets hired in at Kroger, for third shift would make?

Keep in mind I have 1-2 years food experience, 1 year retail, and 1/2 year health experience and this wouldn't be my first job.

Thank you.
