I found this job on career builder.com and was wondering if it's a good job. It kind of seems like one of those jobs where all you do is try to sell things to people...here are the details:

My co-worker gave his two weeks a few days ago and my job gave him a counter offer with more money. He didn't give me the details but he asked me if he should take it and stay or move on. I told him I heard job recruiters say never take a counter offer when you give your notice to your current employer. Does anyone know the reason behind this?

My sister has just been terminated (fired) from her 3 year job as a dental assistant, now she is planning to sue the company for not explaining the reason she got fired. She also did not receive any warnings or complains before getting fired.
1. Does anybody have any advice on what she can do about this situation?
2. Do you think she has been wrongfully terminated?
3. Does anyone think that she has a case and a chance to win?
~Any response is helpful!!!~

Okay, I'm currently in the 9th grade (female), and I am personally interested in becoming a doctor/surgeon because if I go into the health field, I know I am not the top of person of to nurture a patient. I'll end up laughng at their illnesses (out of nervous energy). But I do not mind like studying for something, I am currently an A student, so med. school shouldn't be all that bad. I also wantmore money than a nurse, but also want a marriage/sex life. and children. Is this possible?

hi,this thing about 6200 ciggies being the so called allowance.its a very grey area as it also states that you may lose your ciggies if you are over this amount and if you cant prove they are for family/friends,which i apparently did cos i was way over this amount.the thing is tho we were told that the amount we had they would expect to last us a year,they gotta be kidding.yes we were nearly double their (guideline) allowance.so what they are saying is we cant bring back ciggies/baccy/cigars for the next 12 months? we are off again in feb what do you think should we risk it,can they really inforce what they are saying? none of these things we brought back are for gain,we were even paid in advance by friends to bring some smokes back for them.so should we bring some back in feb or not bother.you know what im gonna bring some back and to hell with them.agree or no? do you think we were lucky to have kept the (contraband) lol.

I don't know why, but I've never had to "practice" or review any questions before going into an interview. I've always went to interviews just being myself. And I always end up getting the job. Can anyone tell me where being honest can fail me at a job interview?

It would probably be easier to get some experience that way just as long as the employer isn't breaking the law. I don't mind working for that wage

I read an article that said environmental jobs will grow tremendously in the next 10 years, much like the tech jobs are growing now. Does anyone have personal experience in this field? Do you agree that environmental jobs are about to soar? I'm interested in anyone's opinions on this matter, as long they are mature about it. Thanks!

Assume you are a mother and money is not that much of an issue. Would you rather have a full-time career that you really like or a really boring but well-paying part-time job (like 4 hours a day) that allowed you more enery and flexibility for being a parent?

I've been reading a lot of "How to do well in an interview" type stuff. They all tell you not to be negative about your current/past job. I can't think of many nice things to say about my current job. The Exception has become the Rule in almost every aspect. Things are very inconsistent and just don't make sense. The salesman are all out for themselves and their clients, and don't care if it screws anyone else over. I make tons of suggestions to help things run smoother, but they don't like change so all I get is "That's a good idea", but it's never implemented, or "Well, uh...we can't do that...it won't work...blah blah blah". The honest answer to "Why did you leave your last job?" is "because my managers were idiots!"
"When is the last time you thought outside the box?" We aren't allowed to think outside the box. And even if we do, it's really only common sense, which to normal people is nothing spectacular. My job itself isn't difficult, but the environment is.

So i work at two different places. My original job i absolutely love and i make pretty good money serving there. However, a family problem occured (my sister worked there and had an affair with another emplyee, making it awkward at first for me.) Upon hearing this news i was very disappointed and got another job. However i wanted to balance both jobs becuase i always like to have options. Well the new job sucks. I have only worked two days and never at one of the other 4 jobs i have had has it been so miserable, especially to start. I have no desire to even go in. Should i just no call/ no show. Its really not gonna hurt them seeing as they put 30 servers on the floor on a not so busy weekday night. Plus the wheather is horible and im not risking wrecking my car to make 21 dollars in 6 hours!! So should i no call/no show, or just walk out? To put it in perspective, i have never not put in my two weeks thats how bad this job is.

I don't know what to do. I have a Bachelor's degree in Comm. from a great university but I've been trying to find a job in Atlanta since july now with no success. I have sent out thousands of emails, i have gone on at least 10 interviews but so far I have not been hired. I think I've done well in interviews and I am not just stuck looking in the Comm field I've applied for many different types of jobs from retail to office jobs to even blockbuster and still no luck. I am really worried because soon I'll have to start paying on my student loans and I dont have any money. I'm just so discouraged.any tips?

I tried so many websites that invovled doing "surveys" for free and the "reward" they said they give you is to enter in sweepstakes, coupons and other naive things. I want an actual work at home job that I can can start doing for free and where I can get paid by means of checks.
