I've been in the market for a new job and each time someone calls me they ask where I am in the job search or if I have had any other interviews. Why do they ask this question and what is the best way to respond?

I have surgery schedule in a couple of months and hope to have my benefits started back after that to help me out.

I am going back to school to get my accounting degree. My teacher doesn't teach from the book, but assigns homework from our text book. He showed us one problem and gave us the answer for practice. Company A 75,000 shares at $5 par value, and 8% cumulative perferred stock and $200,000 share of $1 par value common stock. Last year, the company had no dividends, but this year the company has $108,000. What does each class of stock receive?
My teacher said that the Preferred stockholders get $30,000 for last year and this year. The common stockholders get $48,000.

A different problem says that company A consists of 40,000 shares of noncumulative 7.5% preferred stock with $10 par calue and 100,000 shares of common stock with $1 par value. What does each class get for the following years?
2003 - $10,000
2004 - $24,000
2005 - $100,000
2006 - $196,000
The books says that the answer is $94,000 paid to preferred stock. Can anyone tell me why the two are calculated differently?

I have helluve time understanding what the associates are up to. When you ask them to explain, they say they too, do not know what the acronym stands for but know what needs to be done.

What is the point of using acronyms if we can hardly understand what they are trying to say ?
Are they power word crazy or just plain lazy to say it in full ?

What is it with Ebay's response team? They refuse to help me and send me the same automated email. Basically i messed up in selling an item, i put the wrong reserve in and didn't see the hidden fee's when agreeing. I increased the reserve to stop people from buying it as i sold the item in private, I now owe them £200 for a high reserve fee which i didn't know about. I've sent them about 8 emails and get the same answer. Any advice on what i can do? I can't afford to pay £200 in one go!! I realise i've messed up but this was an honest mistake...can i get out of paying, or pay them in chunks?

I watched three people sit around and complain about how they are not receiving the money owed them for honest, good faith effort put forth for a non profit group. These people are owed over $5000.00 collectively but refuse to speak up against the President of the association who has resigned but refused to pay them their money until they complete some BS Task that is unrelated to them getting their money back. The President refuses to discuss the subject with them or turnover any materials until they complete this task.

What is wrong with these people? Why do these people refuse to fight for themselves?

For a company that is incorporated, how long do you need to keep all the business records (i.e.: customer invoices, vendor invoices, cleared checks, computer generated reports for month end/year end, etc.)?

My friend has a business that he bought from his father in the beginning of 2000, however he and his brother were partners in the business prior to him buying them out in 2000. He has tons and tons of old papers, reports, invoices (customers & vendors), etc. that date back to 1980. I'm trying to clear out files of paperwork that is unnecessary and cluttering the office drawers, cabinets, etc. as there is no room left in file cabinets or anywhere.

I recall hearing 7 years but I want to make sure.

Thanks for all of your answers! :o)
