Data Entry Jobs?

2009-11-19T21:59:00.001-08:00

I have a five month old baby and I do not want to leave her and go out to get a job. So I was wanting to work at home so I could stay home with her. But I just cannot find any jobs online. I have been looking for Data Entry jobs. Does any one know of any websites I could go to and find a Data Entry job? Or maybe another kind of job? I had once before tried the Survey job online, but that dont seem to be legit.

Data Entry Jobs?
I found one. I'm with Stayin Home and Lovin It! and they are partnered with a wellness company that is 21 years old and in good standing with the Better Business Buerau. There is no selling door to door, no big investment and no risk. It's not for everyone, but you can try it out without the risk of losing anything. No get rich quick thing, but it does have the potential to become a full income in a couple of months, all depends on you and how much time you want to invest in it. I have health problems so that is why I needed a work at home business. Many of the people I work with are stay at home moms. It has a great support team, free training and tips and constant support for you to succeed. If you would like more information please go to http://healthybetterme.com

Please be careful when looking for a work at home job. Most are scams. A great place to research a company in the U.S. is at http://search.bbb.org/

You call look up a company by it's name, address, or url and see how they stand with the Better Business Buerau and usually there is a brief description of what they do. Good luck!

Reply:stayin home and lovin it is a mlm. you do have to sell. you sell the business to other people and make money off poor mothers who want the same thing. its selling products that are organic, which are good, but you have to buy into this. NOT something I enjoyed. I waisted 2 hours of my personal time Report It

Reply:Congratulations on the new baby!

A lot of data entry jobs are scams. They want you to pay to work for them. Work at home jobs are hard to find. Technical, phone work or writing jobs are the most common legit ones. You may want to check out some job leads at http://wahjobs.blogspot.com Plus there is a listing of companies that regularly hire telecommuters
Reply:Pinecone research, Surveysavvy, Greenfieldonline are some of the larger survey companies, who pay regularly . A list of companies you can join for free , with details of amounts you will receive as payment, is available at http://tinyurl.com/mx9ga
Reply:I was just reading your post and was thinking to myself...I completely understand! I too am wanting to make some extra money to help with finances because of the job I'm with now...not great pay! :(

I was actually looking at the Dallas Morning News looking for a job over in Dallas, because we're about to relocate back to TX and noticed an ad for AmeriPlan. I called the number on the posting, who is now my sponsor, and she gave me a lot of helpful information about this company. What they do is provide memberships to their Dental, Vision, RX, and Chiropractic networks to provide the end user NICE discounts on these medical services. Its nice if the family's breadwinner is either self employed or doesn't have these types of benefits available to them. OR...and this is the reason I am writing you today is the way to make more money is actually Recruit more Brokers to work with you to sell these memberships as well to build a nice residual income on top of your commissions for selling these memberships. If you would like more information...check out my website: www.iboplus.com/shannonmoore

Being completely up front and honest here...there is a $50/mo Broker fee you do have to pay. But, with that fee...you get access to their endless training, sales leads, sales kit to get you started and more information about health benefits so you are knowledgeable in your product. I do understand that the $50/mo deal is a turn off to a lot of people, but I figure you do have to spend some money to make money and they take the $50/mo out of your commission checks so it doesn't hurt you too badly.

Check it out sometimes and follow the links if you're interested! Honestly, I am NOT the person that normally does this type of thing..but I am very unhappy at my job and NEED to be able to vent my creative strengths somewhere in a more positive direction! I just started doing this yesterday and I am looking forward to being very successful!

What jobs can a felon get? Particularly a DUI or drug charge?

2009-11-19T21:59:00.000-08:00

I'm working as a substance abuse counselor and I'm going to do a project with my clients where I teach them some job skills and hopefully help them look for a job.

I was wondering what kind of jobs a felon can get, particularly if they have a DUI or drug posession charges(some may have 1 DUI or drug charge, others may have more, I'm not really sure). And also, is it even possible for them to get a job other then at McDonalds, etc? They're all drug addicts and many are on probabtion and recieve frequent drug tests that come up clean (if they don't come up clean they get kicked out of our program). We're in FL and my clients are teens to 50-somethings. Please be more specific then just "being honest" that's only step 1, I'm looking for actual job options here. Thanks.

What jobs can a felon get? Particularly a DUI or drug charge?
As another person answered, contacting the United Way would be a good place to start. If you happened to be located in Central Florida you can use 211 to access this information. Also I happen to work for Publix Supermarkets (which is located all over Florida) and I know that you can be hired and promoted into management with convictions. Granted, people are usually started at the bottom and work their way up, but Publix pays fair wages and the opportunity to advance is great. (Infact in my store alone we had 3 managers that had DUI convictions in the past year and they not only kept their jobs but are still considered for promotion, however they were able to get to and from work on time every day either relying on rides from others or bicycling to work.) If a new associate shows that they are a good worker and are motivated to advance they will have no problem getting promoted. Publix not only offers a fair wage they also offer an excellent benefits package, health insurance, 401 K, profit sharing, and a laundry list of other great benefits.

I know it might sound a little "cheesy" to work at a supermarket but Publix does offer a lot of training and opportunities for thoes who are willing to work for it. Also be sure to let them know Publix has a zero tolerance policy for drug use... They will be required to take a pre employment drug screening test as well as be required to take random tests as requested. If you are interesed in any more information look up the Publix website and they are free to go to any Publix and apply at the kiosk, their application will be active for 30 days, and they will have to update it thereafter. Remember the very busy holiday season is coming up and Publix will be looking to do alot of hiring now. I hope this info was helpful for you and thanks for doing such a great service for our community. Good Luck! :)
Reply:I would suggest asking the local state employment office in your area. They must have to deal with this all the time.

Side Jobs?

2009-11-19T21:58:00.003-08:00

Hi,

well i was just wondering if anyone knew of any decent side jobs that may be available in the toronto area. for example i almost got in to this newspaper delivery thing that payed $1000 a month only thing was it meant i had to deliver at 3am which for a student isnt really a good thing so i decided i couldnt do it.

I was just wondering if anyone has done anything in the past with that same idea. something i can do along side my part time job, school, and soccer. a second part time job wont work for me because the availablility me current one requires me to work doesnt allow me much time for another job.

something like an internet job would be ideal for me

Side Jobs?
Check out cashoutu.com. Its pretty easy and you can do it whenever you want.

Why are certain jobs looked down upon by so many people?

2009-11-19T21:58:00.002-08:00

For example, a job bagging groceries and bringing shopping carts in, although it does not pay much, gives plenty of opportunity for good exercise, for helping people, for socializing, and for good, honest hard work. However, even though many people are unable to handle such a job for any length of time, and even though it requires much effort and hard work, many people still look "down" on such a job. The same is true with, for example, restaurant jobs.

So, are people just jealous that they can't handle such a job, or what? I know many restaurant workers and grocery baggers are not very good workers and can even be quite lazy, but I am talking about those that actually do work hard at such jobs (not the lazy ones, but the hard workers). Why are they still looked "down" as if everyone else is better than them even though they work hard and do good work in such jobs?

Why are certain jobs looked down upon by so many people?
I see what you mean. I think blue collar men are the sexiest and manliest myself. I dont like metrosexual primadonnas. The blue collar man is where its at. It is looked down upon until one of these snoots need to actually do the work themselves, then they will have all the respect in the world. Nothing better than to see a man or woman taking on such a job to support thier kids not worrying about their image. These are the truly strong people of our world and need much respect. God Bless them and you.
Reply:Thank you for addressing this issue which I have thought about myself. I even say the people doing the dirty jobs should be paid double what the people sitting in their office chairs do. It seems so unfair. Manual Labor should be paid the most. Report It

Reply:Because our society is composed of shallow creeps for the most part.

Personally, I applaud the efforts of someone who would go through a day of hard work to support themselves. It sure beats going through welfare like a lot of scumbags do.
Reply:No one should look down on a person because of his job. What would happen if we didn't have grocery baggers? Or barbers? Or garbage collectors? Each job has a vital role to play in our society. Without these people our lives would be one hell of a mess.

People look down on these jobs because of ignorance and biases. They should, instead, look down on people who don't want to accept these jobs even though they are jobless.

Peace and blessings!

What jobs should i do to make good money in Marines?

2009-11-19T21:58:00.001-08:00

did pretty good on the asvab test and just want to no what jobs i could do to make like 50 to 100k a year in the Marines and in a civilian job, i want to take law enforcement classes in college so i can be a Homicide detective and be on the SWAT team but i am pretty sure that job selection does not make that good of a living so i guess i am going to have to do a job that i don't want to do..... any job ideas what i could do in the Marines that would benefit me in the civilian world that could help me make any where from 50 to 100k or higher

What jobs should i do to make good money in Marines?
First of all, I think you should not work for the money! My ideal is to do that job what i really love doing. There's gotta be some work what nobody else can do the way you do it. Then you can have all sorts of success in it. But it depends on you to find out that perfect job what you must do to be completely fulfilled. Until you find out the job that your soul is specially equipped to do you would not find true fulfillment

Reply:I think you are in for the wrong reasons. We have people in the Service who want to be their, not only for themselves, but for their country. Not people who want to milk it. We need dedicated people in our military not people who just want money. You should look out for yourself and plan for the future, but it seems like your already set on that one thing. Hopefully San Diego or Paris Island will hook you up with some real pride, honor, and commitment and service to your country not just yourself.
Reply:your not gonna make that kind of money being an enlisted man in the military for about 10 years or more.....check the pay charts, as far as it preparing you for a job in the civilian world that pays that much look around before you pick your job and figure out what you want to do when you get out and pick something in that field.......but you really shouldnt join the military for the pay, if you do first of all you probably wont make it......and secondly you will be sadly disappointed when those $500 paychecks start rolling in every 2 weeks.
Reply:6694 Aviation Information System Technician. You establish and maintain computer networks for the DOD system. You work with fiber optics, cat 5, NICs and much more. Plenty of application outside of the military (its actually the fasted growing field) and even with civilian contractors to the militar.
Reply:You're not going to make "good money" in any branch of the military. This country may be good at saying "we support the troops", but we're not good at actually doing that.

You say you're interested in law enforcement. My son is a Marine MP and is interested in staying in law enforcement when his enlistment time is up. Police officers don't ususally get paid much, either, so he decided against that. (We don't seem to do a good job supporting any of those we rely on in emergency situations.) He's finding there are great job opportunities for a former Marine MP who wants to do security work for large corporations. The pay scale for that kind of work is in the range you're looking for.

I hope this helps. Just be sure your ready for the intese rigors of Marine Corps life. It isn't easy, but it will give you some of the best preparation for the kind of work you say you want to do.
Reply:Aircraft maintentance, diesel mechanic.

Hoo-Rah gets harder as you get older.
Reply:To 'make good money in Marines', 'like 50 to 100k a year in the Marines', you should not enlist at all. You should get yourself off to college, study, and look for civilian employment.

You should not enlist, your reason has nothing to do with duty and honor, only money.

Are there any jobs in the military involving astronomy or meteorology?

2009-11-19T21:58:00.000-08:00

i was just wondering, because i've always thought of going in the military, (considering how many of my relatives are in)and i was wondering if there are any astronomy related jobs in the military. i love astronomy, AND meteorology (i know there are some meteorology jobs in the air force) and if you know any, will you please list them? i don't think there are many, if any astronomy jobs, but im just curious. So if you know ANY military jobs that have to do with meteorology or astronomy, please list them. oh, and by meteorology jobs i don't mean like weather girl jobs...i mean like flying into the center of hurricanes to take pictures of the eye jobs. :)

Are there any jobs in the military involving astronomy or meteorology?
There are many that involve metorology and astronomy both. A few that come to mind are in navigation, artillary, and intelligence. All three are reliant on knowing what the weather will be. Many navy ships in most countires still use astronomical navigation as a way back-up and double check thier GPS systems. If you are in the artillary, weather affects the trajectory of the shell. Also I have seen instances where magnetic and GPS readings were rendered useless due to magnetic interference (this was above the artic circle). Star readings were used to aim with great effectiveness.

Weather is a very important factor in planning any military operation and you will see that most major militaries devote no small amount of resources into knowing and predicting weather patterns.
Reply:My step son recently joined the Navy as an Aerographer's Mate. He will be learning meteorology and also learning to maintain the equipment that a meterologist uses.
Reply:Yes, there are many jobs in those fields. And there quite needed at the time.
Reply:Yes we have our own weather people. they give area reports for airsupport and conditions for training and missions.

What are "The Jobs which British people won't do"?

2009-11-19T21:57:00.003-08:00

I keep hearing about these jobs as a reason why we "need" immigrants.

I live in a fairly poor area and I know a lot of unemployed white British people who would be happy to do ANY job. But whenever they apply for a job here are always lots of other applicants and they don't get chosen.

I have seen people - well qualified people, being turned down for jobs which are actually BELOW their qualification levels - in fact I'm one of them! My boyfriend - a trained mechanic who can't get work as a mechanic as there are not enough jobs - even got turned down for a car valeting job because the interviewer just liked someone else more or decided they were more suitable. I have no idea. It was through no fault of his own!

So I really don't beleive these "jobs noone else wants" exist and they are just a figment of the Left's imagination to justify the rampant immigration. As far as I know the only time we had this sort of full employment was back in the 1950s.

What are "The Jobs which British people won't do"?
If that really is a question being asked, that's really funny because that's the same crap being tried over here in the US.

Ah playbook politics at it's finest.
Reply:cleaning toilets?
Reply:Ah, good question. Therefore, two interesting ideas have just risen from my head...

In response to your comments about the unemployment problem since the 1950s - more jobs were available during the 1950s, as machinery, including computers, was not so widely available. However, when machines were made to do jobs that humans could, they replaced people with machinery since they were more economical! As a result, more people could not gain a job since machines, including computers, were used an alternative.

"Jobs that no-one else wants"...? Well, that's down to personal opinion, rather than choice. It depends on the person's background, opinions, wants/needs, experience(s) and qualifications.

With regards to the question, there arent any jobs we wont do provided we get fair pay.
Reply:Ladymoonlight, the last time I checked it was Eastern Europeans- mainly Poles - taking a lot of the jobs the English 'might' have taken! Are you insinuating that Eastern Europeans are 'not white' and only 'white' English people are 'white'?

I agree that their is too much immigration here but there are also far too many English-born and able-bodied people of different ethnic backgrounds who spend too much time scrounging off of the benefits system who should be made to work!

Benefits should ONLY be for people who are very young, elderly, mentally or physically disabled or those who have been laid off through no fault of their own and need assistance in getting re-employed, especially in areas of limited employment. Benefits should also ONLY be for people who have been working continuously here for a year or more - not for people 'just off the boat.'
Reply:I totally agree. I believe there is a core of employers who use the CBI, the Confederation of British Industry, as a mouthpiece to bleat out this tired rationalisation.

This is all the excuse they need to justify the employers hiring virtual slave labour from abroad and treating them like beasts of burden.

It's not fair on us Brits - but trust me on this, it's even less fair on the immigrants, who are forced to live in the sort of living conditions that you wouldn't see dogs living in.

Of course we Brits wouldn't take on such jobs. We'd probably be a hell of a lot more savvy, and demand (a) the minimum wage at least; (b) working conditions that have a greater survival rate than 25%.

Otherwise, were it not for these gangmasters using the CBI like this, I don't believe there'd be anything we wouldn't touch.
Reply:Can i make a suggestion, move house to an area with more prospects or be prepared to travel further to work.

I almost guarantee you'll be working in no time.

cat the aussie - there is plenty of money to be made in the UK plumbing industry, do you not read the newspapers?
Reply:Jobs _______ (insert majority) people won't do are typically low skill, labor intensive jobs that SHOULD be paid high for the work being done, but that non-majority people, out of necessity, tend to do for a lot less money. It isn't that the majority WON'T do the jobs, its that the wealthy, who own the means of production would rather have you believe so that you believe society would collapse without the work of immigrants, when in reality it would just be their pocketbooks, having to pay a fair market value for the services provided.

And on that note, its neither a left nor right issue. In the United States, particularly California, it is the conservative Republican party that favors immigration for these reasons.
Reply:It is a fabrication by the government machine to justify bringing immigrants into the country, not for charity, but for cheap labour.

Incidentally, the Tory government in the mid fifties carried out the same policy and used the same excuse.

The jobs no one applies for are usually in the service industry which has always been notorious for low pay and poor conditions.

One way to combat this policy is to spread the word to the immigrant workers that they are being exploited and also boycott any business that you find paying poverty wages.

There are thousands of post graduates and highly qualified people who are either unemployed or working for the minimum wage, but just peruse the company profits!

It had just so happened that we had all worked in the food processing business and had all worked at the same factory but at different times.

Britain and many other European nations diet was never based on agriculture in the past, hence the beef consumption. Why should these nations start now? You say these jobs don't exist well how do you think produce gets on your grocery shelves? If your boyfriend would like a real back breaking job he's more then welcome to come to the states and pick agriculture, the only Americans who tried this work were the Oakies during the depression era, and they didn't last long.

Oh, and plumbers. Seeing as how the Brits don't like to bathe, if their plumbing fails, nobody cares. No money in the plumbing trade in the UK.

The best jobs and most needed right now in the airforce?

2009-11-19T21:57:00.002-08:00

so, i am joining the airforce. pretty excited about it!!!! YAY! I am finally following my heart and doing something for myself! Anyway, Im just wondering what jobs are most needed right now. I prefer a health care job, but Im not sure if they are so much needed. My husband is also active duyt airforce, so i really want a flexible job that will be easier to get me staioned with him here where i am now! Do you have any suggestions? Also, is there any way that I could get lets say Macdill AFB and a guaranteed job here? Im pretty sure about the job, but Im sure the base this is a no! LOL! I see adds for certain jobs like " airforce nurses needed", and I wasnt sure if that meant you got to be stationed here or not since its in this paper here. But, Im dreaming..I know it!

Thanks in advance!

The best jobs and most needed right now in the airforce?
Honestly, you could probably get the best low down from your hubby. Good luck getting Medical. It takes a special recruiter as most medical positions are pretty overmanned (believe it or not). The AFI's are changing for AF manning so I can't speak for anytime down the road but Explosive Ordinance Disposal is in need (with a signing bonus too). Pararescue, Combat Controlled, AF Special Forces is always in need. If you want maximum flexibilty for being stationed with your hubby I would go Security Forces, Personnelist, or Services Specialist (Cook, Fitness Center, Loding, etc.) AFSC (Job Code) is a pretty easy one to get guaranteed, however, the base one might be a little more difficult. Being Mil-to-Mil married, you will probably start off at your husbands home base right now until yout put in for a Joint Spouse Assignment. I know every few years the Air Force releases the NECP (Nurse Enlisted Comissioning Program). There are a few prerequesits but it can be done after 3-4 years. Good Luck in your venture and I hope this information helps.
Reply:Sorry, but I don't think you will be able to get a medical job. They are very hard to get in the Air Force. As far as where you will be stationed, it is the needs of the service. You can request a base, but there are no guarantees. You go where they need people.
Reply:Wow. As far as I know you have to be a nurse or go to college while you're in to be a nurse, they don't train you. From what I've heard they are really looking for Airborne Cryptologic Linguists. I'm going to be a Ground Cryptologic Linguist and while my bonuses aren't as big my sign on bonus is still $12,000. Airborne is pretty demanding from what I've heard though.

I think about.com pays you to post articles about things you know about.. I'd check into that. There are lots of sites that pay you for articles.. , I believe ezine.com is another one that does.

You know, I have a successful home based on line business, but just for fun I like to post questions to see what people will say. Go ahead take a look at my Answers and Questions. The thing that gets me is that people seem to think nothing is possible, if that's your mentality, then I recommend applying for a regular job. Being in business for yourself requires your time, effort, and money to get going, but it also requires the proper mindset! As far as "jobs" from home, your choices are limited, regardless of what you'll hear, taking surveys etc. only pays $5 or so, and a lot are scams. You can develop your own on line income if you are determined enough to learn how.

If getting a job really involves so much, then how is it that OTHER people have jobs, yet I always..10 points!

2009-11-19T21:56:00.003-08:00

I just turned 22 and am supposed to graduate from college in May. I have ALWAYS had trouble getting a job, because I walk in looking/acting professionally and apply for jobs, even include my resume, but then they never call me about a job. I went to the campus carreer center and they reccomended that I try to follow up on my applications, which I have done, but all I ever hear is that the employer will call me if they "want to hire me"8-| And yet despite this EVERYONE else in one of my classes at this college seems to have a job and think nothing of it, like it is that easy to just get a job. And believe me when I say that their work ethic is a MILLION times lower than mine, and they dress or act professionally. So how is it that all of these people got a job despite CLEARLY being less motivated than me and not dressing or acting professionally?

If getting a job really involves so much, then how is it that OTHER people have jobs, yet I always..10 points!
I only read about half of your post, and in my opinion it sounds like you have a chip on your shoulder. I'm sorry you may have a hard time finding a job, but I see a common factor.....rejection. That is telling me that you need to change something on your end. Confidence is good, but overconfidence and showing it is bad. It's all in the presentation of yourself and what you bring to the table.

Should We Export Our Jobs or Import Workers To Do Them?

2009-11-19T21:56:00.002-08:00

American workers are being fired because companies are exporting their jobs overseas. American workers are also being fired because many of our politicians are encouraging low wage, and often illegal, immigrants to come here and take their jobs away from them. The politicians who support the “open borders” that cause American workers to lose their jobs to illegal immigrants are often the very same ones who condemn the companies that cause American workers to lose their jobs by exporting them.

Do America’s former workers who are trying to make ends meet on temporary unemployment benefits really care if they lost their jobs because the jobs went overseas or if they lost their jobs because foreign workers came here to take them?

If Bush, McCain, Kennedy and other politicians of their ilk succeed in passing their so-called comprehensive immigration reform legislation, how do America’s unemployed former workers benefit?

If we grant legal status to illegal immigrants, does that save “American” jobs? If so, isn’t that kind of like decriminalizing murder to reduce crimes of violence?

Should We Export Our Jobs or Import Workers To Do Them?
The jobs illegal immigrants do are unskilled jobs that can't be outsourced off shore. For instance, food, lodging and construction industries. What many don't realize is that the U.S. already has enough of an uneducated unskilled citizen underclass that for the most part are willing to perform the jobs illegal aliens take. The problem is illegal aliens by and large know where these jobs are because they are well networked with the help of La Raza, the Catholic Church, and the backing ot the Mexican government. Our cititzen underclass is not networked at all.

In some cases, the U.S. underclass citizen worker might require 2 or 3 dollars an hour more to do the same job illegals now perform but since the average illegal alien in the U.S. costs taxpayers an average of at least $10,000 annually, the feds should consider subsidizing the difference if necessary. This would create a win-win situation because the subsidy won't be as much as the welfare dollars these citizens are currently sucking up.

The newly unemployed illegal alien can go back to their country, or work in a chain gang. There is no reason to grant legal status to illegal immigrants from a taxpayers point of view. Only from a greedy businessman's point of view. (Taxpayers be damned)
Reply:Neither. Hire people within the US to do the jobs. Keep it in the States.
Reply:How can housekeeping, lawn care, and lettuce picking be outsourced to other countries? Most of the jobs are staying where they are. The American workers are simply being undercut by illegal labor. It's called supply and demand. It will happen in any free market economy. The system can only function the way it is supposed to if companies are held accountable for only hiring legal labor. If that means to outsource, so be it. That's the nature of the beast. Unskilled American workers can either take the lower paying jobs or learn a skill or trade in order to earn a higher paying job. As long as illegal labor is allowed to persist, the only Americans who will be able to survive in the job market are the ones who are competing for higher skilled jobs that illegal immigrants are unable to obtain even with the temptation of low salary pay.

If we were actually able to tighten border security enough to keep illegal aliens out, we would also be keeping out many other parts of the black market (drugs, guns, sex slaves, etc.). There's too many people in power who are being paid handsomely to look the other way as all of these transactions occur. Illegal labor is just the most obvious of these because you see them standing on the street corners every day dangling their crimes in your face.

I'm all about finding a solution, but I know it doesn't involve punishing or rewarding the people who have already crossed the border. I am thinking it involves some enforced accountability and responsibility from U.S. employers. Remove the incentive, and the problem will fix itself without too much more intervention.
Reply:You ask the question as if you imagine that the decision is up to the US government, or to the American people.

The corporations make the decision. They are profit-driven, and patriotism or concern for fellow citizens is not high on the corporate agenda.

To be fair, IT professionals will do a job for USD 7K in India, where American IT professionals will want USD 70K for work of the same standard. What would you want if you owned a lot of shares in a computer company?

Factory work is even more glaring. People work for peanuts in China and Indonesia. Furthermore, workers in those places tend to be a lot more compliant, and there is no talk of raises or unions or complaining about health and safety issues.

I know what you are saying, but there is two things for Americans (or anyone else) to do in order to protect themselves and their nation from globalization.

1. Figure out what you can do faster better and cheaper than anyone else in the world.

2. Do it.
Reply:there was a show on tv the company was going to move to mexico but didnt because the people they planned on hiring are already here
Reply:The jobs being exported and the jobs being imported are completely different.

1) Jobs being exported are often manufacturing jobs or IT jobs. The manufacturing labor is cheaper outside of the country then inside. IT "products" are just a few seconds away.

2) Jobs being taken by illegal immigrants are typically jobs that cannot be exported. ie. waiter/waitress. Additionally, many of these jobs involve farming where a good portion of America are farmers. India/China are very likely to start exporting wheat/corn because of their high population and lack of arable land.
Reply:Neither is required. All we need to do is do away with ALL gov give away programs to the lazy. Those folks can do the work that the illegals now do.
Reply:If you make the claim that we need ILLEGAL workers because they are "cheap labor" and American citizens and LEGAL IMMIGRANTS won't do the work for the wages they do, then it makes no sense to let them stay or make them legal, because they will then demand AND RECEIVE a fair wage and benefits from the corrupt employers that hired them in the first place.

Then you "need" more...because, in reality, the corrupt employers will WANT more illegals to exploit. It's a vicious cycle. They don't WANT to pay a fair wage and benefits to citizens and legal immigrants if they can get away with paying less to illegal criminal aliens.

The only solution is enforcement of our laws. Prosecute these corrupt employers to the extent of the law, deport illegal aliens and secure our borders.
Reply:Neither. Keep American jobs in America for American workers.
Reply:Neither, keep them here and start complaining (don't buy) their products. Also call your elected politicians daily.. This is why the jobs are going abroad. Big business and politicians are CONTROLLING you, not to mention the media

Listing jobs on resume question?

2009-11-19T21:56:00.001-08:00

I have had a job or two that I would like to put on my resume because it shows that I have applicable skills to a job that I want to apply for. However these were under the table jobs, could I list these jobs or leave them out? Would they think I am lying since these jobs won't appear on my work history?

Listing jobs on resume question?
You should list these jobs on your application. Only mention they were under the table jobs if you're ask, then explain why you were working under the table. The most important aspect of interviewing is being honest even when it doesn't make you look as good as you'd hope.

Resume questions- listing jobs?

2009-11-19T21:56:00.000-08:00

Hi, I am helping my brother work on his resume. He graduated college in 2000 and since then has had a new job about once a year. Most of the jobs he's held have been relevant to the new job he wants to apply for. So, do I list all of the past jobs on his resume?

And, if I leave a job out, does that look weird to have gaps in time where it looks like he didn't hold a job?

So basically my question is...how do you organize a resume to include multiple jobs? He will have about 8 listed...is that too many?

Resume questions- listing jobs?
.../findingajob/resumes/a2004-06-07-func... - look up functional resumes. it will have all the infor you need to compete
Reply:The best bet may be to find a resume template somewhere on the internet and follow the outline. I'd say that, as a best practice, you should list the last 3 or 4 jobs. If there are any large gaps, you should be prepared to answer questions about why there is an employment gap, but I wouldn't recommend leaving a job off. If they make you an offer, they will probably find the missing information in background check anyway.

As an aside, there a ton of sites out there that offer free resume templates. I know that Microsoft Office Online and other sites, such as http://www.inknowvation.net/, have a ton of freely available templates.
Reply:List the last 3 and then in a seprate place list the duties that the unlisted jobs might have had that are revelvant to the job you are tyring to get.

As far as gaps in the work history all you need to do is be honest at the interview..
Reply:You probably only want to list the 3-4 most recent jobs with full details. For the others, you can group them together and say something along the lines of "experience available upon request" as the sub-heading. That means they're on there, but it'll make the resume easier on the eyes.

Also, make sure he's prepared to show that he's reliable in an interview. That will appear to be a weakness for people that hire and interview. As someone who's hired and recruited, 8 jobs in 8 years is a HUGE red flag for me if I'm looking for a long-term employee.

Reply:Yes that is too many. I have experience in creating resume's and will try to explain what a employer is looking for in a good resume'. First of all, a resume' is "Not" an application. A resume' is, or should be, a cross section of the person it represents. It should contain Name, address, telephone, etc, etc. Then the position that you are applying for. Then where you would like to be in that company in five years or more. Then schooling, and years of experience. (Not a list of Jobs) That is for the application that you will be filling out later, if you are called for an interview. Executives don't have a lot of time to read long, drawn out resume's. Entice them with interesting facts. Wish I could help you more. By the way, All of the people I helped, got the position.

Dental Jobs?

2009-11-19T21:55:00.002-08:00

ok,so i havent completely made up my mind, i pretty much would like to have any job in the Dental Fields area.

who generally gets payed more?

-Dentists?

-Orthodontists?

-Oral/Maxillofacial Surgeons?

-Cosmetic Dentists?

-or any other type of job in the Dental Fields I've missed that is running my own practice like the ones i listed above?

i dont know yet,i think i want to be a Orthodontist, but i want a job where i get a lot more money from it in the Dental Jobs, but i dont want too much schooling! it already takes about 8-9 years of college to be an Orthodontist, so a Dental Job that would get payed more but require less or the same amount of schooling time, I live along the pacific coast in Southern California and want to stay living here while i have a career. so i wanna make a lot of money. since everything, including homes are very indeed expensive nowadays here.

Dental Jobs?
You've gotten some pretty good advice from the other posters. Remember that dental school is very expensive--tuition is about 10X what it was when I went to school in the 1970's. Then, if you're going to open up your own practice, it can cost a few hundred thousand to build an office, even if there's no real estate involved. So you can be in an enormous financial hole before you see your first patient.

The particular practice setting and dynamics of your particular dental practice will help determine income. Location and clientele are important, and obviously your competence level. But personality and service are probably the most important of all. While it's true that cosmetic dentistry is not covered by insurance and therefore insurance companies cannot influence fees, your market will. Also, any dentist can (and most do) cosmetic dentistry--it is NOT a specialty (though there are plenty of continuing ed courses out there).

Since it appears you are at the very beginning of the process, why not try to find out what you can about general dentistry. There is plenty of time to decide whether or not to specialize later on.

Good luck,

Steve Bornfeld, DDS
Reply:Which would you enjoy more? The driving factor should NOT be money. If you "don't want too much schooling", then why do you want to be a dentist? Becoming one is harder than you imagine. If you're just in it for the money, then I feel bad for your future patients.

Pick something you want to do because you like it...not just because you'll make a lot of money.
Reply:Based on my limited knowledge I would say Cosmetic Dentist. They help to reshape and contour the face but they don't rely strictly on referrals like the other specialties you listed. One of my relatives lives on the east coast. He is a Cosmetic Dentist and he's only been working for about 5 or 6 years and already had purchased a massive 22 foot Grady White fishing boat, a drop dead gorgeous house on the water, and a $80,000 Porsche.

The way it works in my area the dentists usually have one "go-to" dentist that they will use for Ortho. For my boss we refer all our pts to Dr Thodus. That's it. If you were in my area you wouldn't get any of our business because we already have an established relationship with Dr Thodus. In the other office I worked in we used Dr Wong. If you want to specialize in Ortho you better be damn good at relationships because it's necessary for survival.

Btw - if your decision is based on money you're doing it for the wrong reason. All the above dental fields that you listed above are very very good paying jobs. I would take any of the above, but if you wanted the most bang for the buck, cosmetic would be the way to go - especially in SoCal.

What jobs can I get currently without a High School Diploma?

2009-11-19T21:55:00.001-08:00

Currently, I have returned to finish my high school education (not the GED) and I currently have a part-time job at the "Panera Bread" cafe/resteraunt - but lately, I have been trying to find another profession with better pay. Unfortunately, being as of yet, without a high school diploma - I'm unable to sign up for jobs that require it. I have tried to look for jobs in the usual expected places - i.e - working as a cashier, customer service, etc - but they usually are snapped up by people younger than me (I'm 23 years old, btw). At the moment, I cannot think of any jobs that I could do at my age, but would have (even a little) better pay than the one I currently have. If anyone has any tips as to what other jobs I could try, I would be grateful.

What jobs can I get currently without a High School Diploma?
Congratulations on going back to complete your high school education. Unfortunately, you are very, very limited as to what you can do without a high school diploma and are probably doing the type of work that you can get. I don't think there is much else you can do until you get your diploma. Even then, your options will be limited.

About temp jobs?

2009-11-19T21:54:00.002-08:00

I have some questions about temp jobs?

1. Do you get benefits with tmep jobs?

2. Are the temp jobs full time or part time?

3. Do temp jobs become perment job after while?

4.Do temps jobs help built a resume and gain experience?

About temp jobs?
1. Depends on the temp company. But usually, the answer is yes, after completing a certain amount of worked hours as a temp within their company. They usually let you know how many hours you need or just mail you the information once you have reached the specified amount of work hours.

2.both, depending on what you tell them you are looking for. unless you are assigned work with mostly one company, you usually will have a combination of both depending on what assignments come up.

3. if the company you were assigned to thinks u did a good job and wants to hire you, yes. thats usually how temps get a permanent position.

4. of course, it especially shows you are reliable and flexible, especially if you end up hired by one of the places you worked for.
Reply:1. benefits with a temp company may come a while after you start, but your goal should be to temp to then become a permananet hire.

2. both

3. dependens on the company needs and if you are what they are looking for. think of it as a try out.

4. experience and resume yes.

Online jobs?

2009-11-19T21:54:00.001-08:00

Okay here is my situation. I'm pregnant and on strict bedrest, meaning that I had to quit my job. My fiance is working 68 hours a week so he can't get an additional job. He is in the process of trying to find one that pays more so we can make more money and me have him around more, but so far no luck. The only way I can work is if it's an online job. However, I know that most of the jobs offered online are scams. So I was wondering if anyone had an online job that maybe they could refer me too, or had any suggestions of where I should look. Thank you so much in advance.

Online jobs?
Hi Rachel,

You are right that a lot of the online jobs are scams. You have to be extra careful who you listen to.

Firstly before working online you really need to learn how to market, you will get the offers that say you don't need any knowledge of the internet and that they will provide you with your own site etc but you still need to know how to market, how to drive traffic to your website.

By far the best learning resource for Internet Marketing is run by two college graduates that provide all the training you need.

Internet marketing can be a very rewarding and lucrative business if you first learn to do it right.

She got involved in a business and loves it and 5 years later, is still doing it. She works out of her home and stays home with her kids. Her husband got involved in it to as a part time deal and then quit his job and this is something they do together. If you'd like her web site and contact information, please feel free to email me and I'd be happy to send it to you. Good luck with the baby!

I have worked Online for 2 years and got my start in affiliate marketing (or 'Online marketing). This was a while back. It took me forever to decide what I wanted to do in affiliate marketing. I finally decided to do websites that review other people's products. I, of course, get a commission. Well, it takes a while to build traffic for your website. My point? If you need money now, Online marketing is not the way to go. It is a great career for the future, but most people don't start making good money for at least a year. Sad, but true! (Also, don't advertise on Google...it is very expensive.)

To make ends meet now, I started with a company called AmeriPlan. We do 'healthcare savings'. I loooove it. I can be creative and be my own boss. Wonder what it is? Check out the site above and look around. Request an interview and I will be happy to phone you and answer your questions! (We do get paid every day and get residual income.)

Good luck in whatever you choose. You have to look hard but great opportunities are out there! :-)

Why don't you do some research..........and look into Left Handed Products???

Approx 10% of the worlds poulation are left handed..... get them all and Bingo!!! time to print money.

Of course, you won't get them all............ but find the supply and then tap into the demand..........create a website.......follow up all enquiries.......... and work hard with your brain...........keep your body energies for your new child.

Give it a go, God helps those who help themselves.......

I will be doing exactly the same in the New Year, in Cairns,Australia.............I hope i've not inspired some local competition

Spanish needed? - Jobs in Montreal?

2009-11-19T21:54:00.000-08:00

Hey I'm thinking of moving to Montreal in spring 2008. I have a few friends living there as well as my sister. I am bilingual but my second language is Spanish, NOT French. I was wondering what my job options are (High school graduate) or if there are jobs that look for spanish speakers.

The jobs I've heard of for english speakers are a typing job for the deaf and a call center job.

Anything would help...English job options too. Thank you, Merci... gracias :)

Spanish needed? - Jobs in Montreal?
Spanish speakers not so much as far as unilingual English speakers there is not to much options, call centers who hire only English speakers, hmmm, perhaps as a nanny, working in a hotel as a maid although even that is iffy. Try areas of Westmount, N.D.G and Montreal West and Cote St. Luc. Might try the West Island too. Perhaps factory work. Sorry, not to many options wish I could think of more!
Reply:I arrivede this year but I only speak Spanish and English and I could say that most all the jobs require french speakers.NOw, i have no job. It's better to start with the french or look for other places where only English is necessary. Good luck! Report It

Reply:You will be considered unilingual. Spanish isn't a requirement for most jobs. French is absolutely necessary in all jobs dealing with the public. Call centers might consider you but French and English is a basic requirement. Sometimes they ask for perfectly bilingual which is French and English + Spanish but it's rare.
Reply:I don't say you will use Spanish very much in Montreal. This city is largely french with english as second language followed by a multitude of other languages/dialects.

There is a small spanish community but jobs in spanish are probably non existant.

You should have no problems with an English job although any jobs dealing with the public will require fluent french.

There is such thing as a language law and believe it or not a "language police" but don't let that deter you from moving, Montreal is a vibrant community and I am sure you would fit right in. If you have learned spanish it is only a small jump to french. You should have no problem learning the basics.

Good luck / Bonne chance
Reply:Hola. Not that many.. I was there for a while and i could not apply to a better job because my french was not good enough.

There are areas of the city like Westmount where english is mainly spoken and you might have more chances to get a job there.

Good Summer Jobs that providing housing?? 17yrs old?

2009-11-19T21:53:00.003-08:00

i'll be 17 in may, and want/need a summer job. i perfer one away from home, but that means this job would have to have housing provided for its employees. any sugestions?

I live in Connecticut so north east is prefered but location isnt the most important thing

some detail about me::

I am an extremely hard worker and am willing to do a variety of jobs. I would be able to work from late June to mid-August.

My previous jobs include working at a local creamery in my town, both as a server and cashier. That job taught me patience, dedication and the ability to please customers.

I am lively and outgoing. i love being outdoors and the BEACH!! but i dont mind being inside either. whatever brings in the money. i looked at camps but i couldnt find any good ones where i could work most had to be 18/in college.

so if anyone knows a place/job that provides housing for it's seasonal employees, thatd be great!!

Good Summer Jobs that providing housing?? 17yrs old?
summer camp counselour!

You would get food and housing

You would be outdoors and most likely on abeach

And you would have fun with the campers and the other counselours

Basically, summer camps are a good bet if you can stand spending your summer around kids 24/7, I'd keep looking.

Try looking into working at a hotel/hostel/retreat center/resort in the place you want to go. You might be a little young to find much, but I bet if you looked hard enough you could.
Reply:The places that provide housing generally include camp counselors, foster care aides (at children's facilities), apartment managers, those "u store it" managers (since 7x24 access is required).
Reply:check out Yellowstone National Park or Teton National Park. They have great summer jobs and provide housing. If you don't want to travel so far, check out national parks in your area.

Why do jobs discriminate against people with misdemeanors?

2009-11-19T21:53:00.002-08:00

I know that jobs usually say "if you have a felony we cant hire you" but why have they started discriminating against people with misdemeanors? A friend of mine got into a fight with a man who was stalking his wife, he was charged with 1 felony and 2 misdemeanors but they were later dropped to 2 misdemeanors, and no felony charges were filed. He was sentenced to 2 years probation, from 2004 to 2006 and no jail time. He completed his probation and his lawyer said that since it was his first offense he wouldnt have any criminal history and it would be wiped clean. Well here recently he was laid off of his job in dec 06 and he got this job while this was on his criminal background, now he cant find a job anywhere since being laid off, and they tell him its because he has misdemeanors and that as long as he had them he wouldnt be able to get a job anywhere. Whats the deal? Why is it so hard for people to aquire jobs after getting into a simple misunderstanding? Serious answers please.

Why do jobs discriminate against people with misdemeanors?
It goes with the territory. Consider a criminal background as grounds for dismissal. Once you enter the penal system and get processed, your life is forever changed.

Don't expect normal outcomes. I'm not sure if the actual offenses are revealed on a criminal background check but even if they are ~ and you have two prospects with the same qualifications and one has this criminal record...who you gonna hire??

.
Reply:It's only discrmination if you're a member of a protected class.

Having a criminal record is fun to giggle about when you're drinking with your lowlife friends, but only the very naive think that serving time is the only repercussion of being convicted.

Welcome the real world.
Reply:This is a tough question. The facts are your friend is not being discriminated against. Think about the following: there are tons of professionals each day that get charged with DWI's and DUI's. I'm almost certain because I personally know about 4-5 people that have been charged, that if its truly off your record there is absolutely no way of finding this information out. If the company that did the background check finds out that he has been in trouble with the law, than yes, he is probably having a hard time getting a job mainly because there are probably 20 other applicants with the same experience and credentials that don't have a criminal charge against them. My recommendation to your friend is to first make double sure the charges are gone, and second when asked in an interview if he has been convicted of a criminal charge to say "NO". The facts are most companies outside of fortune 500 or government jobs don't really look that deep.
Reply:Do you want me to tell you my top 10 reasons, or list all 112 of them.
Reply:This is not discrimination. It is "selective hiring." If I own or run a business and I have a choise between hiring someone with misdemeanor offences and without, you can bet I'm going with the one with a clean record.

Why should I hire someone who does not even have respect for themselves or for the law or enough self-discipline that they can't break the law? It is not that difficult to not break the law.
Reply:It is not considered discrimination because convicted people are not a protected class. If your friend thought that his record would be cleared he should contact his attorney again. He may need to apply for an expungment ( a clearing of his record...this is sometimes at the discretion of the prosecuting attorneys office) of his record. Some places won't hire people with certain crimes in their background because it can pose a threat to the people that already work their or customers. He should definately get a hold of his attorney again....

Two jobs to choose from...and may be moving...what to do?

2009-11-19T21:53:00.000-08:00

I got offered a job at a small company as an assistant. Two hours before I got the call, I went to a big insurance company that my brother-in-law works at and he's going to send my resume out for inside jobs. This type of job will give me great job security, great benefits and 100% tution reimbursment. I've always worked for small companys, and this a huge company, which I would sit at a cubical everyday. The other job that I got offered is for a small company with very friendly people, and I'd have my own little area. It seems like it would be a comfortable place to work. The main thing I've been stressing about is that I may or may not move to another town in about a month. I haven't quite decided if I'm going or not. The big company is only 10 mins away. The small company is about 45 mins. Which job should I take?

Two jobs to choose from...and may be moving...what to do?
no real commuting--no moving expenses= big company--------------V small company =lots of expenditure--as far as job security goes you have the same balance--abig corp.could/would slash you in a second---a small corp might not be able to compete with a big corp and be forced out--tough decision ,go with the money or the maybe lifestyle--your choice
Reply:If you feel comfortable working for a big company, like the pay, and the perks are good then I would go for that but if you like the idea of working for a smaller company and is a bit riskier to work at then you may consider that. It just depends, I would wait until you find out all the details of what each company is offering you.
Reply:Take the job that you most likely will be happy with. The job that you will most enjoy because if you don't enjoy your job, you will most likely looking for another one.
Reply:Have you already been offered the job at the big company? I think I would take the big company offer (it seems to have various advantages) UNLESS...the smallercompany is more in line with what I am interested in career wise. Alll the best!
Reply:I would chose whatever makes you happiest. My mom had the same problem, and she chose the bigger company. As a result, she had to quit because it was just too big--she even had trouble finding the parking lot because she had to switch buses a few times.

Ask yourself: What job will make me happier? You should list all the pros and cons about each job and then decide what to do.

Good luck.
Reply:Remember that with a big company, you are just a number, but if you like being anonymous then that could be a good thing. If you like money, take the big company and build your resume. Having that company name on your resume may get you elsewhere.

There is nothing wrong with small companies except for the small pay and lack of benefits. People tend to be happier and less stressed in a small company I think....
Reply:Hi, I'm a recruiter and I think you need to remember that you haven't been offered two jobs. It sounds like you've applied to the big company and been offered the small company job for real. Big companies have tons of applicants, you may never even get an interview. You can only make your choice based on what's happening right now. You have a job offer you have to decide on. Never give up a job that you would want for one that you haven't even interviewed at yet. If you want to accept the small company job, do it. If you don't like that job, move on and keep applying. That's your only choice, because you don't even know if big company is interested.
Reply:Regarding the potential move, try your best to take that out of the equation. Make decisions as if you would always be living where you live today. Make the decision on employment as if you would be taking the job and would have it for a few years. Deal with a move, IF and WHEN it comes up.

Now you only have one thing for sure the small company. Evaluate that decision independently. Would you want to work there even if you didn't have hope for working at the large company?

If an opportunity with the large company comes up in the future, you can evaluate that decision then. In every opportunity just do whats best for you at that moment in time.

Too many jobs!!!Not enough excuses?

2009-11-19T21:52:00.003-08:00

ok i am applying for a flight attendant job and they ask that you list all the jobs you have had in the past ten years i am only 23 so that puts me in teen years altogether i have had 11 jobs i was at the longest one for a year and then to others any where from a month to 5 months normally i wouldnt run into this problem cause i just put my best jobs on my resume but now since i have to list them all i dont know what i am going to say about having some many jobs the earlier jobs were like pizza place and theme parks so i dont think that will be such a big deal but even the jobs that i have had as an adult, another thing is i havent work in about two years i was injuryed my hand but i am fine now what do i say about that,

Too many jobs!!!Not enough excuses?
Don't say anything about your hand. If they ask if you can perform the job duties say yes and that is all. It is quite common for young people to have a lot of short term jobs. Some are seasonal, some are part time after school jobs. When a youth is making $6.50 per hour and the place across the street is paying $6.75 then it is common to leave for the better pay.

Jobs that pay well, for teens in Las Vegas?

2009-11-19T21:52:00.002-08:00

I'm sixteen, I live in las vegas, and I am looking for job. I am looking for my first job, but i'm not sure where to start. it seems like most jobs here are for people 18 and up. Working for $6.50 really isn't an option for me though, which pretty much counts out all the fast food joints, and all the grocery stores. I am very smart and generally catch on quickly. I'm hoping to find a job in an actual office setting, that pays a real salary, but that seems like to much to hope for since it is my first job.

any suggestions, or advice is appreaciated.

Jobs that pay well, for teens in Las Vegas?
I would say go to Starbucks, they make alot of tips! I know it starts off more than minimum wage, and they are always busy!

My first real job was at Vons, bagging groceries, it wasnt a bad job and I made tips from when I helped people out to their car with their groceries. When I turned 18 I transferred into their customer service department where I joined the union and made really good $$$$$

I need a 2nd job but it's so hard to find one. I'm only 20 years old and have on had 2 previous jobs...

2009-11-19T21:52:00.001-08:00

I have been applying everywhere and I haven't gotten a call back. Is it better to apply in person at the place or is applying online just the same? I have only applied online everywhere. I am only looking for these types of jobs: Front desk receptionist for a hotel, hostess at a restaurant, or a secretary job at an office. I have no prior experience which makes it hard for me when the employers want someone with experience. But how do I even start out and get experience for later if no one will hire me in these types of jobs? My only previous jobs are working at a movie theater as a concessionist, and now I'm assistant Pre-K teacher at a school. But I need a weekday nights and weekend job.

So really, my questions are: What are the best ways to apply for a job (talk to the hiring manager myself?), how can I get the required experience for these jobs if no one will hire me for the 1st time? And if there are any other suggestions for jobs for me that would be easy to find?

I need a 2nd job but it's so hard to find one. I'm only 20 years old and have on had 2 previous jobs...
Don't limit yourself. Best way to make cash fast is start your own business and mowing lawns is it. Of course, you would have to have a way to move the mower/trimmer/blower around but you can make very good money. When you apply for a job, have a resume. Go to the library and get a book on power resumes. Take one with you when you apply. Make an appointment and go in. Be sure the manager is there when you do. When you're done, do your best to hand your resume to the manager and tell him you look forward to hearing from him/her. Be dressed for the job when you go in, be very neat %26amp; clean, shine your shoes, be very polite and well mannered. Be sure your application is very neat and completely filled out. Have them tack your resume to the back. You may not have experience in that particular job, but a receptionist deals with people much like you did at the concession stand. As a teacher you are a responsible person that deal with parents as well as children. The power resume book I got taught me how to pull the strengths out of my previous jobs and apply them to the position I was trying to get. You will be amazed just how much you have to offer them when you are through. Lots of Luck.

Reply:I've met some people who work as a phone operator/ answering service out of their house. I think there are some simple requirements like a hands-free headset and things like that, but it didn't seem too difficult. Companies sometimes farm out that work because it lowers overhead costs if they don't have to provide a building for the operators to work in. You can't make a HUGE amount of money - its not a get-rich-quick scheme. Just a regular job.

Jobs that don't require one to be computer savvy or do a lot of heavy lifting.?

2009-11-19T21:51:00.002-08:00

Hey y'all, this is a long shot, but I could use some more opinions on it. My best friend is really unhappy right now. She's dyslexic so she's always struggled a bit with jobs that require reading, typing, working on a cash register, etc... so she's working a graveyard shift as a stocker in a Wal Mart. She really hates her job. She's a really dependable, responsible, reliable employee so she's been given tasks like scanning all of the labels on the boxes and unloading the truck and it requires her to lift big, heavy furniture all night long. She's burnt out but we're having a hard time figuring out what job would be a good fit for her. She's got a high school diploma with a special focus in photography. She's good with a camera and knows how to develop film (she had a job in a photo lab for a while and loved it, but she was laid off since unfortunately, that photo lab was in a Kmart that was closed). Photo jobs are rare though, so we're looking for something more generalized

What jobs can one obtain with a Bachelors in Psychology, I NEED HELP?!?

2009-11-19T21:51:00.001-08:00

I am currently working towards a Bachelors of Science in Psychology. I am a freshman, and I'm about to choose classes for my second semester. The field, along with sociology, is highly interesting to me, yet most jobs I hear people are getting involve working with mentally disabled children in schools, prisons, etc. That's not what I want. The field is so interesting yet most of these jobs are about $35,000 a year. I'm trying to nail most of my University's required classes with some going toward my degree. I want a decent job when I graduate and I'm starting to feel I can't get it with the degree I'm working for. Its still pretty early, but the earlier the better. Are there any jobs with good pay with a BS in Psyc? If not, would there be some in a degree with Biology. Biology also confuses me because what jobs use a Bio degree? Biology and Law are my other options, but my main focus is looking for jobs with a Psyc major. I might see my academic adviser this week. Plz, any feedback??

What jobs can one obtain with a Bachelors in Psychology, I NEED HELP?!?
As most liberal arts degrees, it qualifies you for a lot of entry level generalist/management positions. It doesn't qualify you to work as a psychologist. But I got my first degree in psychology and never regretted it.

One is with a place that processes checks, kind of like a mailroom operational center, the other is a lossprevention specialist postion with a national retail clothing chain. The loss prevention job pays more (just by 25 cents, and the comapany is stable, the check processing job pays the least, but this company is stable too, and I got a better feeling about it when I went for the interview. Both jobs are part of my background, and now I don't know which to take. The check processing job is closer to my home, the latter is at least a 40 mile commute per drive there? So which should I pick?

Which job should I choose? Both are good jobs, but the main thing I want is job stability, help me decide??!?
Go with your gut. The check processing job gave you a better feel during the interview and is closer to home. When you consider the cost of gas these days and time you will spend commuting to the other job, 25 cents doesn't seem like enough to warrant choosing the loss prevention job over the other. That's only $10 per week, which you'll easily spend in gas and car maintenance. Best of luck to you!
Reply:Which job offers the best advancement possibilities and has the best benefits?

That is the one I would choose.
Reply:You actually answered your own question sweetie. You got a better feeling about the check processing job and it is also closer to your home. This obviously sounds like the better choice.

Think of it this way. Although the position with the retail clothing chain pays more by 25 cents you will actually be spending that (maybe more) with the commute you'd have to take.
Reply:I'd go with the check processing job, because the extra 25 cents that the other job pays will be going in your gas tank (and then some).
Reply:Check processing. The commute makes the check processing job pay more, plus you have the better feeling about it.
Reply:Pick the job you like the most and you probaly should pick the one more stable and more money making.
Reply:Pick the job you like best. If not, pick the one closest to your home now with the price of gas so high.

I had 3 jobs in 2007.?

2009-11-19T21:50:00.002-08:00

1st job ended in the last week of January 07 and was a part time job. 2nd job (worked 32 hours a week, not sure if that's full or part time) started February 1st of 07 and ended October 12 of 07. Third job (Full-Time) started October 15 and I am currently still at this job. With my 1st %26amp; 2nd jobs, I claimed 0 exemptions on my W4. On my 3rd job, I claimed 1 Exemption (myself). Should I have stayed consistant and just claimed 0 exemptions on my 3rd job? What kind of problems will this exemption change cause, if any?

I had 3 jobs in 2007.?
You are probably okay.

The usual problem occurs when you have a full and part time job during the same weeks.

Why are jobs so crappy nowadays?

2009-11-19T21:50:00.001-08:00

back in the day we had more industrial jobs for men and women, now it's service jobs, service jobs really don't help the usa economy as much as industrial jobs cause if we have industrial jobs we'll also have service jobs with it, so why is it that our government let people outside the usa make these goods for us to consume cause it's cheaper, it's not cheaper but it's a tradeoff, taking our industrial jobs for a lower priced resource, now we're stuck with less work in our domestic economy and we have goods not made in the usa, why doesn't our government promote this, why do they brainwash amercians into thinking this is saving the world money, americans are better off making things for our own and americans should pay more for what we produce cause we have to live with reputation and honor, we also need to stop imports and if there are imports, the government should tariff it by the amount of industrial wages that could've been paid out to americans if americans worked the products

Why are jobs so crappy nowadays?
Um... I'm going to admit I only read about 60% of all of that, but you should know that importing and exporting does make for a more effiicient economy, and thus saves the world money.

First complaint:

Support your claim that we're primarily, in the US, in the service industry.

Second complaint:

Not only does importing/exporting save money, but allows our population to focus on other sectors other than manufacturing. Kinda really simple. There are all sorts of arguements to be made about opportunity cost and job safety and satisfaction. If our population were primarily manufacturing all of the goods our country uses currently, we wouldn't have resources for medical/scientific research, social sciences included.

Third complaint:

If you're going to claim we American's are being "brainwashed" and our importing and exporting isn't saving any money for anyone, please support it with some facts. Maybe we are being brainwashed, but it would be because out government is showing us some logical explanation or provable theory as to why we do what we do. Instead of just blabbering on, make some key points, support them, and stop.

Jobs: One Week on and one week off...options?

2009-11-19T21:50:00.000-08:00

I recently applied for a job where I will work 7 days on and 7 days off. During the week that I am not employed, the company could call me, although it is unlikely. What are some other jobs I could do during the weeks I have off? I am ok with hard labor and outdoor jobs. What all jobs are out there that are either flexible with hours or work one week on one week off? Any ideas are appreciated! Thanks y'all!!!

PS. Please don't answer with rude or unethical answers. I am looking for a job for a person with GOOD MORAL STANDARDS!!! :) thanks again.

Jobs: One Week on and one week off...options?
this person has it correct

Day labor or temp work

you could do babysitting/nanny. set your hours for 1 week on then off.
Reply:It would be a great opportunity for you to start your own part time business.
Reply:Most of your effort in earning money will be to buy a house. If you buy a piece of land now you and work on it every second week. Start small and plan ahead.
Reply:Day labor or temp work. We have day labor places that send you out one day at a time so you could take a couple of days off and still work 4 days on your off weeks. Ours pay 8.50 per hour and you do things for homeowners or factories that just need a couple of people for a couple of days.

You can also start a service business like window washing or roof repairs and only schedule for your off weeks. You could paint the insides of houses at about a room a day you might finish a house is 7 days or hire an assistant.

Decent Paying Jobs for 17-18yrs olds??

2009-11-19T21:49:00.002-08:00

Hey I'd like some info and suggestions on jobs that are decent for 17-18yr olds. Now before the usual answers come up, I've had four jobs. One fastfood(low pay,no respect), Assistant to remodeling, a bagger, and a waiter. Currently I am a bagger and make $8/hr, the thing that sucks is the hours, the breaks being every 3 hours. I am getting kind of sick of this and I have good evaluations at work. Basically what else is out there?? Its hard to get a job because of stupid minor laws protecting lazy kids. I'd really like to find something with more hours/pay. I turn 18 in a couple months too so any suggestions on that would be great too!! Since I will do a job hunt when I turn 18 but its hard with the bad economy. I'm not looking for an easy job, my current job is too easy! I am fine with hard work, as long as its worth it! I do plan to go to college and have a career but I am stuck now due to age. I've had two jobs but nothing good now, so I would appreciate advice and info! Thank You!

Reply:Corner stores should be very willing to hire you. You have experience in the areas that they need and you seem teachable if there are any extras that they need to show you. You would have to work with someone though because of the selling of alcohol. There are also chain stores like "Wal-Mart" and "Lowes" that should be open for you They have many areas to keep a person busy and tired. Don't forget gas stations either. What about clothing and shoe stores? Shop around the mall for applications. There are plenty of opps. What are you good at? What are you looking for? Is there anything available in the field that you would like to go to college for?
Reply:since you're 18 now lot's of company are finding jobs for 18 years old. but be sure to love your job in the next job you find.

try this site http://teenlink.nypl.org/jobs.html

that site is suits for you...
Reply:intern somewhere. It's beneficial for your college resume and for your wallet. I know someone interning at a law firm and she gets paid over $10 an hour, or if your not into that I heard that if you're lucky, you can try getting an assistant/errand boy job at offices.

Check out tutoring jobs, those can pay really well also
Reply:Apply to the city or county for work. Maybe the parks maintenance.
Reply:most of the grocery stores in my area have "kids" doing all kinds of jobs not just bagging. why not ask if there is a more challenging position available instead of bagging (which is usually the poorest paying position). think stocker, cashier, courtesy booth or one of the specialized departments. i have known many people who remained at the same jobsthroughout their entire college years because the hours are very flexible and even if they went away to school they could come home and work holidays and summers.
Reply:I started this site a few weeks ago and make pretty good money just sitting at home. I've been told by others that thay make thousands a week here but I don't but I have make $400 in a few weeks, and only being onsite about an hour each day! FREE can't hurt to check it out! :)

Child Labor Laws -14 and 15 Years of Age:

During the school year, hours are limited to 3 hours a day and 18 hours a week. On days when there's no school and in the summer, working hours increase to 8 hours a day and 40 hours a week. There are limits on when children can work, too - no later than 7 p.m. during the school year and no later than 9 p.m. between June 1 and Labor Day. Fourteen- and 15- year-olds may be employed in restaurants and quick-service establishments outside school hours in a variety of jobs for limited periods of time and under specified conditions.

My advice: You need to check with you local school and state in regards to "working papers" - even for summer work they are sometimes required! Your school counselor will be able to help you.

Below is an EXCELLENT article for you.

I still in college, I am thinking about accountant major. that's why I think will take some classes for accountant. I would like to look for some job to get experience for accountant, so I will know I like accountant or not. I dont know if I take a job in a bank, like a bank teller. Will this job give me experience about accountant ? if not please reccommend me some jobs to know about accountants.

I am in college, I will start some classes for accountant, so I will do any jobs in accountant with low pay to get experience. Please reccommend me, thanks so much!

Jobs for accountant major with no AA or BS degree ???
a bank teller really wouldn't have any experience as an accountant, so try and get an internship through your school with a local accounting firm, or do research on the firms by yourself and inquire if they have internships.

On a job resume, or application, is it better not to list the past jobs, that you got fired?

2009-11-19T21:48:00.001-08:00

I didn't work while raising my kids, for about 15 years, so since my divorce for13 years , I have had some pretty bad jobs! Jobs you would get with no college degree, or much experience. some sales, some office work, and a postal job that turned sour. With bad supervisors, who didnt care about there employee's, and would treat them bad, and than fire them when they tried to communicate, that things could be better. So I have no work references, that I would want to use! Would it be better to just leave these jobs off the application and resume, and just put that I have been a stay at home mom for most of the years. Just put the 1 or 2 jobs, that don't make me look bad?

I hate to lie, but I don't know what else to do! I need a job!

On a job resume, or application, is it better not to list the past jobs, that you got fired?
Right! List those you may get good references from and not those you got fired from. Employers expect you to leave those off anyway. Most ppl don't want a new boss getting a bad review from an old employer. Having spent most of your time as a mother is pretty common. Many employers are willing to hire you because you will work for less pay than someone with a lot of experience. Just remember to be at your best and if the interviewer asks if you have ever been fired tell them the truth but not much detail about the incident.
Reply:You do what you got to do to get the work and if that been the truth alittle so be it.
Reply:yes - most of your time was spent raising kids - no need to shoot yourself in the foot with bad references on your resume.
Reply:I'd put them on to account for your time. You can also pump up your resume/ap by the skills you acquired on those jobs. The creative part is listing (ok, embellishing) the length of time on each job and the reason you left, as well as $$ earned.

Such jobs you described probably have a high turnover anyway.

So yeah, lengthen the time where you can, and give reasons like "needed employment that offered more money" "enjoyed position but company downsized # of employees" "accepted employment for day shift and later, employer required evening shift"

The jobs you are describing-usually they dont check previous employers. They dont have time!

If you dont want to put jobs down but have to account for your time, then you can say you worked for yourself cleaning homes, you worked taking care of preschool children until they started school-things that you can give references if asked. (Got friends and family?)

As for lying-well, if you are making my burger and lied to get the job, I dont care. If you're going to take out my appendix and have lied, well, then there's a problem.

Sweetie, do the best you can for yourself! You need to eat and pay your rent/mortgage-its bad enough these jobs that you do right now hardly pay to get by. Be creative.
Reply:I know; the do-gooders will say that it's a lie by omission, but you are trying to better yourself, so I say, what you dont say, cant hurt you.
Reply:You have a valid reason for gaps in your employment history but If any of your past jobs provided you with experience for the new position, you could include them on your resume. When asked why you left, you'll need to answer in a very non-judgmental tone. Give the reason you were fired and what you learned from the experience that would make you a better employee in the future.

Whatever you do, don't ever slam your previous employer! Try to put a positive spin on it.

Once it's posted on monster.com and careerbuilder.com people will start to contact you. No need to lie or exaggerate your experience. Someone who needs you will find you. Best of luck to you! :)

Question about jobs?

2009-11-16T17:44:00.002-08:00

I am 19 and have had 3 different jobs. the first job i quit for a better opportunity [after 1 1/2 years]. that next job i quit [after 6 months] so i could finish up school (I only had a few classes left to graduate and needed to attend them during the day). I just recently got a job [about a month and a half ago] and want to quit. it is toooooo far a drive and i absolutely hate it. i stress out days before having to go in. I have left all jobs in good graces but I want to know if this is normal or if i am just being completely irresponsible. any advice? I want to quit this job to go back [temporarly] to my first job (I really enjoyed working there).

Question about jobs?
The main question to ask is if these are just "jobs," or are they the career that you intend to follow for the rest of your life. In career-type jobs, you can get away with one or two jobs of short tenure if they are spaced years and years apart, and you have very good reasons for having left. In fact, eventually, you just leave those off of your resume and act like they never existed.

Since you are 19, they will be hard to ignore because you don't have a lot of experience at other jobs to fall back on.

If you really hate the job you have now, it's going to be hard but the best thing to do would be to stick it out until the following thing happens:

You find another job where they're willing to take you despite your spotty record AND you are absolutely, positively sure that you'll stay there a good, long time. In terms of your youth, that would be at least three years, but five would be better.

If these are just job, jobs (clerk in a store, cook at a fast food restaurant, stuff like that) then don't sweat it. People come and go all the time. If you are a hard worker you will always be able to find something.

Ultimately, though, you have to give some consideration to your employer. They do a search, which costs them time and money (even if it's just putting an ad in the paper, they've paid out money and spent time interviewing). They whittle down the candidates, and they choose YOU. You are happy to get the job, you promise them that you'll be a faithful and hard-working employee, and then you quit on them. No matter what kind of good reasons you have, there has to be a little heartburn over that.
Reply:I would hope people would understand that especially leaving a job for school. the 1st two were a total of 2 years, I would try to stick it out as long as you can for this job, but I don't think it will hurt you on a resume after you graduate.
Reply:yes it is normal u r young,and just getting the working era. when istarted to work i hated to get up ,but i had bills,and now i work for myself ,and work when i want
Reply:I think that as a 19 year old it is normal to go through a few jobs before finding one that you like. I did the same thing and I think future employers won't hold it against you. Especially if you have left on good terms and can use them as references.
Reply:Never keep a job that you stress about going to. You'll more than likely quit sooner or later. Put in your notice and leave.You'll be happier,and the employer can find someone who really wants the job. Go do what you like better.

Should I change jobs?

2009-11-16T17:44:00.001-08:00

I am a little torn about job possibilities. I currently work for a large government agency, and I really enjoy the job. I get along well with my bosses and most coworkers and only slightly annoyed with one coworker (person's work ethic is terrible). I have been with the agency for only a year and a half and have only been in this particular position for about 6 months. I am content with my salary although I think the coworker with terrible work ethic makes as much as I do yet I have more experience and more education directly related to the job. I do not think there is much job growth here, and I am only in my mid-20s. Another possibility has come about where I would make more money per day but it is less money yearly. However workdays drop from 261 a year (the 10 federal holidays) to 210 days a year with the other job. The other job also would use more of my skills related to a grad degree I'm working on now and appears to have job growth. Is this worth changing jobs?

Should I change jobs?
At this point in your life, I would be looking for any kind of job that has the potential for future job growth. If you are good at what you do, then it shouldn't take long at all for you to advance up the career ladder. Even though the money is less to begin with, it could be much more later on if you are able to impress the right people. I'm sure it would also be nice to have the extra days off. This would allow you time to relax, vacation, take on another part time job, or start up some kind of business of your own. Another thing you want to factor in is benefits. Many people often over look this when considering different job opportunities. I know that most government jobs usually offer pretty good benefits. If the new potential employer really wants you then you could negotiate for better benefits as well.
Reply:well if you are getting along with your boss and feel comfortable . first collect enough money in your bank account that would last you for a good 5-6 months then do as you wish.
Reply:Ask for a raise or leave. The other guy has probably been there longer and is why he is making more money.

Jobs-part time or casual?

2009-11-16T17:44:00.000-08:00

i am 14 and would like a part time job. My mum says a casual job is what i want and my friends say part time. my mum said that a casual job is where u only work a couple of housr and a part time job is where u work all hours, but my friends say the opposite n they have jobs. can any one help me before i make a mistake. im confused now ????

Jobs-part time or casual?
In the United States "part time" ( also, seasonal labor ) is a "full charge", ongoing staff position. Originally less than 30 hours, the performance and compensation requirements are the same as "full time", including the traditional two week notice.

Casual labor ( frequently referred to as "odd jobs" in the private sector ) would be an " ad hoc" personal service agreement to perform specific duties that would expire upon satisfactory completion of that particular task. Instead of working for the company, as above, this would be at the company's discretion and would not include any "permanent" implications. More times than not, it would be funded from petty cash.

May I offer some unsolicited advice? On completion of these contracts, ask each employer for a " Satisfactory Service Statement", even if you must draft it yourself. This will serve as a " Letter of Introduction" and also a " Letter of Recommendation". Good Luck.
Reply:The way i know casual is when you get called in a few hours a week or if there is a need.Part time would be more structured but has to be less then 30 hours a week.(and i think mum is right)My son is 16 year old and works as casual .I know all of his friends who work they all casually employed too.

Good on you for looking for a job.Hope you 'll find one .Good luck

2009-11-16T17:43:00.003-08:00

hi i work at McD's and im sure everyone has worked in fast food sometime in thire life...im 17 and been working there since i turned 16...it was my 1st job and i havent had a real job since then and i hate going to work...everyone there is just annoying and i hate the work i do...i dont mind working i just hate the fast food thing...idk if all jobs just plain suck like mine? or do jobs like at kmart or w/e dont suck as bad? i hgate my job at McD's so ne ideas on where i can work? remember im under 18 and still in school...thanks

My job sucks...are all jobs like this? or just mine?
McD's is a good starter job.

It would depend what is in your area--job wise and businesses--and who of those would hire part time help or high school students. Just look at some possibilities in your area and go in and talk to someone and apply. You never know until you try.

No, all jobs are not unpleasant.
Reply:The only time I enjoy my job....When I'm not there!
Reply:I was gunna say most high paying jobs suck, but that's just a trade off. Doesn't fit for this occasion. Find a real restaurant (non chain) to work at washing dishes or something. They're usually better. Any college cafeterias around to work at? Get a jump on meeting people (women) there. Work hard to graduate a little early and work on the Maine Maritime Academy training ship in May-June. I think they are going to Europe again this year.
Reply:i love my job and make good money too. mcd's is good for you now. finish school and find what you want to do in life.

you gotta start somewhere.
Reply:Low paying jobs tend to suck, the interesting ones pay a lot.

But you need to start somewhere to get the experience that will show you are a good employee and can handle more responsibility and better jobs.

So look at this job as a stepping stone to better jobs in the future.

Do this job the best you can, be happy and when you apply for different jobs in the future, you will get a good recommendation from McD.. Always give your job the best effort you are capable of, If you can't, don't disrespect the job, QUIT.
Reply:Finish school get a part time job at a gas station or a dry cleaners.

But finish School Or life will be that way for the rest of your life!

Solitary jobs?

2009-11-16T17:43:00.002-08:00

What are some good trades/construction jobs where you don't work with others as often? Where you mainly do your job alone. I know that in every job, I will have to interact with others, but I would like to work alone at least half the work day with no-one bothering me. I want a solitary job but not a dead-end job, and not something that requires lots of studying, like an electrical engineer or programmer(don't have the brains for that). I wan't something in the middle. Is an electrician my best bet. seems like I would have lots of options and paths to take if i became an electrician, and i could choose a more solitary position. Any other solitary jobs?

Are there military jobs for an AF reservist?

2009-11-16T17:43:00.001-08:00

I am considering joining the AF reserves.

Note being active duty, I understand that I will not get paid for being in the AF reserves, aside from the "one weekend a month %26amp; two weeks a year pay".

I'm thinking about my options as far as work, and income.

Here are my questions:

Are there jobs in the AF that I can work in and get paid for (full or part time), as a reservist? Possibly for the job in which I train for? Or another job other than the one I will train for?

Working a civilian job for the AF. Would that be an option for me? If so, what exactly are the types of civilian jobs in the AF?

As a reservist, how long will my technical training (or job training be)?

Is it shorter than active duty, or is it all based on the job I pick?

And, will I be getting paid the whole time I am in school/training for my particular job/speciality?

What types of bonus' do they offer AF reservists?

Are there military jobs for an AF reservist?
There's the Air Reserve Technician Program (ART): "The Air Reserve Technician (ART) program offers full-time employment with a reserve unit. This is a dual-duty position as both a civil service government employee and as a reservist. ARTs must meet all qualifications for both civil service and the Air Force Reserve. "

Marketing jobs that don't involve sales?

2009-11-16T17:42:00.003-08:00

I have a bachelors degree in marketing, but haven't been able to use it to land a marketing job due to lack of experience. So I've been working temp jobs, mainly doing clerical work. All I seem to find are sales jobs, even thru monster and careerbuilder. I really don't want to do sales as I don't have the personality for it. I was hoping to find something more along the lines of creative, research, advertising, brand/product development, etc. but those jobs tend to want someone with experience. I live in Michigan which makes it that much harder. What cities are good for marketing besides NY and LA.? I'm open to relocation, preferably in the southeast. Is anyone out there experiencing the same thing I'm going through? If so, what did you do: did you eventually find the marketing job you were looking for or did you just settle for a sales job or did you just switch to a totally different field? I'm starting to regret that I chose marketing. Should I choose a different field?

Marketing jobs that don't involve sales?
First pick a city or two or three that you wouldn't mind moving to and living in should you need to relocate. (Do some research online for each city to find out about climate, population, things to do around there, housing costs, etc.)

Then go to online yellow pages listings for each city and start looking up advertising agencies, and other marketing type agencies. Go to their websites and see what it is they do, see if they have job openings and apply if you are interested, or if they don't have openings, send them a letter explaining your interest in an entry-level position to gain experience.

You can also go directly to websites of companies you are interested in that may have marketing positions open. Think of big companies like Disney or TV stations or Nike or anywhere else (that interests you) that could have job openings, and check their websites to see what they have available.
Reply:I understand how you feel about hard sales. I hated that too (and I have a 2 year Assoc. Degree in Marketing). Actually, it did open up some job fields for me but yes, it took a while. I was only 19 when I graduated.

HOWEVER the marketing training came in excellent when I started up a small side business on the internet and helps when I do one or two shows a year with my things. That's a side 'job' though, not the main one that pays the bills.

Chicago is a large enough city to find something in advertising or selling ad space. Not everyone wants or needs experienced applicants. Keep looking. I know Michigan isn't the best place (I have a friend over there, she's in the same boat you are),but going south to Ohio with one of their large cities may help a lot. Don't switch fields, just expand the geographic area. I work with TMP Directional Marketing now (they do ads in the yellow pages across the country).

Retail work with display or management focus could use you. There are a lot of jobs that are extensions of marketing, I'm sure you can find one. Placement services can help you out if you want to give them a try. Adecco is a very good one. Everyone I know who used them recommends the company. I don't hear that with Manpower.
Reply:Sales and marketing go hand in hand because you are marketing for the sales people. Im in sales. Companies do hire marketing departments. Usually companies that have a product to sell as opposed to a service. Look into co's that manufacture etc. Specifically set up your resume to target these jobs. Go google 'recruiters' and send your resume to recruiters to assist you. They get paid to find you a job by the company. You can be more candid with a recruiter and they can refine the search for you.
Reply:Go add on to your degree with something else perhaps....youa lready have all your core done....look on craigslist for promotional modeling/marketing its good tempw ork and maybe you could manage an agency
Reply:there is a marketing job going at FIRST YORK in UK (york yorkshire) contact Mr Stewart on 01904 883000 or check out www.firstgroup.com

Application closing date is 11th January.

Interviews take place the following week.

Good luck. It is in the transport industry
Reply:When you look up jobs under marketing thats pretty much what you will coem up with...sales. Thats what marketing is...selling products to consumers. You need to maybe change your search fields to research, developement etc etc. Even with companies that do marketing for big brands as far as holding events or promotions for them, a lot of the work involved is pitching new accounts and/or keeping current accounts happy to retain their business. Once you get your foot in one of these companies initially the main part of your job is going to be soliciting accounts...but once you get them you arent dealing with sales as much as retention, which is super easy once you establish a relationship with the client. So its sounds like for you to get where you want to be you may have to start with some "grunt" sales work....but it will pay off in the long run Good Luck!!!
Reply:I'm in a similar situation as you. I live in Michigan and I have a degree in advertising and public relations. I have been out of school for two years now without any luck. I had to settle for a job in human services to pay the bills, and it is working out fine so far but I miss the creative aspect of the advertising industry.

Unfortunately, I found in my search that just about every company wants someone with experience (beyond an internship, which I have done). I also don't like sales, and had a telemarketing job for a whole two weeks before I quit.

Try the Chicago area or pretty much any large city. Start by choosing a city/area and then check the local papers (online of course) to see if they have any openings. Good luck!

Jobs nearer home?

2009-11-16T17:42:00.002-08:00

In Russia there is a job register that allows people to swap jobs with others of a similar job so they are nearer home. No need to commute miles to get to your job trying to get through street congestion. Could the same job swap work in cities like London where people face a nightmare everyday just trying to get to and from work.

Jobs nearer home?
No.

Jobs that are like tesco, sainsbury , morrison, are they called manual jobs, done hand work?

2009-11-16T17:42:00.001-08:00

there was a question an hour ago ,saying how tesco staff wished they worked harder, as its a manual job, I first time realised , that its true these jobs are manual, arent there,

so which jobs arent manual ,

and what job is easy to do , working in a office

Jobs that are like tesco, sainsbury , morrison, are they called manual jobs, done hand work?
Working in an office isn't a manaul job and working in an office is not necessarily an easy job - They have to work out how to make money and what strategy to use and how to plan - which is not that easy - a lot of brain power is needed as problems can be very complex.
Reply:manual is when u do sumthing by hand and u doit manually E.G kneeding the dough urself at a bakery BUT now everything is one by machines which is not manually even now dough kneeding machines are made i thhink soon everything will b done by technology all machines there wil b hi unemployment and stuff

Biomedical Engineering Jobs - where do I find entry level job?

2009-11-16T17:42:00.000-08:00

I have my resume online in about 47 job websites. Alone in hotjob my resume found in Search 849 times , viewed by Employers 42 times. My resume is pretty, I paid lots money for that. However I havn't got any job offer from biomedical companies. I got lots of offer from compnies other than biomedical. I just want to know is there any biomedical jobs out there or not. Whenever I search for biomedical job, I always see there they require to have at least 5 years of experince. If no one give us entry level job in biomedical than how can we get a job.

I know some greduate student from biomedical, most of them are working somewhere non biomedical related compnies. If this is the case why colleges are offring biomedical degree?

Biomedical Engineering Jobs - where do I find entry level job?
You may be asking for too much or maybe too little? if you are new to engineering in general which i suspect you are ? It will actually take alot more than than that, to include making sure your letters and resume are free of typing and or grammitical errors. This will turn them off very fast. Best of luck to you.
Reply:Look for work overseas. Entry level work in your field in this country is scarce, if you move to another market you have better chances not to mention the international experience will make you a highly coveted candidate when you return.
Reply:It might be because you in the wrong area . I live in metro Boston area and there are probably hundreds of biomedical firms within 20 mile radius from my house. My BF got hired as a biomedical engineer after graduation, but he has an EE degree. I recommend calling and sending resumes to start up biomedical companies.
Reply:Good question. Biomedical is much more restricted than say civil, mechanical, or chemical engineering. It will probably just take time... Contact your college, maybe they could tell you or guide you in the right direction. They should have a career services center.
Reply:I will say now that it is ALL about your resume. If you are not getting hits from biomedical comapnies, it is because you do not have a "biomedical" resume. It's that simple.

if you would like to post a link to your resume I'd be happy to critique it.

----------------------------------

Just browsing through, you have a strong resume but you need to really emphasize your biomedical background.

A few recommendations:

1. Include relevant coursework! Right now you're selling your education since you don't have any professional experience in the field.

2. Include GPA (unless it's really bad). Having a decent GPA is a very strong selling point.

3. Move "Senior Projects" above work experience. Like I mentioned above, you need to emphasize all of your work and eduction in BIOMEDICAL stuff.

4. Change your objective to something more directed and specific, for example "To obtain a full-time position as an entry-level biomedical engineer"

Above all, this resume has to scream "biomedical engineer". When I first opened the file and just glanced through the top half, I saw mainly computer stuff and immediately I categorized you as some sort of IT guy.

You need to format it in such a way that if you handed your resume to a complete stranger, they would immediately know that you are all about biomedical engineering.

Hope some of this stuff helps and good luck.

If the job market claims more jobs are available, why am I having a hard time finding a job?

2009-11-16T17:41:00.003-08:00

I currently have a full-time job, however the company that I'm working for is being bought out by a massive company. Therefore, I may not have a job. It took me forever to find a job, and trust me I've applied to many places. But, everyone that I tell "I can't find a job" tells me that jobs are out there.

If the job market claims more jobs are available, why am I having a hard time finding a job?
it depends on where you are in the country and how much education you have. the numbers are aggregated so its over all markets and industries. so if you are in an industry that isnt growing then you need to look elsewhere.

Etiquette with two part-time jobs...?

2009-11-16T17:41:00.002-08:00

Not sure how to phrase this question, but here it is...

Early last week I interviewed for two part-time jobs. At the end of last week, one of them hired me and I started working this Monday. I told them my days would be Mondays Wednesdays Fridays. I told them this because if the second job came through I would be working there Tuesday Thursday though I didn't tell the first job about the second job nor did I tell the second job about the first job.

Just a few hours ago I got a call from the second job and I got it. Won't meet up with her until Tuesday, but I'm afraid there's some sort of etiquette when it comes to this.

I'm leaning toward telling my second job that since we spoke last I got ANOTHER part-time job and I scheduled that one around this one. So my questions are..

(a) Should I do that?

(b) Should I also tell the first job?

(c) Is there any other things I should know about?

Also I haven't signed anything yet for either one. Soon though.

Etiquette with two part-time jobs...?
As long as you are working full time hours why not get one full time job so that you can get benefits?
Reply:a %26amp; b) You don't have to say when you got the job. Just refer to it as your other job.

Sometimes people with a full time job have a second part-time job. If anything, it's proof that you want to work. Often times, they'll work both jobs on some days.

Jobs helping people with disabilities?

2009-11-16T17:41:00.001-08:00

I really want a job where I’m helping people who genuinely need assistance. I’m an administrator and have always enjoyed the elements of my job where I provide help and guidance to people with disabilities. Have worked in a conference centre, bank, cruise company and two training providers. In these jobs, nobody else has wanted to provide assistance and I have always stepped in with no reservations. e.g., in one job, we had some students with dyslexia and according to my colleagues ‘a pain to deal with’. I do not find this the case. I spoke to a couple of dyslexic students and helped them with their queries and really felt happy that I was doing all that I could to help them. There are occasions where I’m unable to provide assistance, but I always try my best.

Would love to work for a charity. Unfortunately, unable to work voluntarily. Are there any good websites that I should look at for more guidance? London/Kent based jobs. Maybe moving to Dublin, so that is also an option.

Jobs helping people with disabilities?
Go on to the MENCAP website.

Talk to them and see if they can point you in the right direction. You may be able to get a post as Disability rights adviser.

Best of luck.
Reply:Why not try classroom assistant/SEN assistant, I work in a mainstream school as a SEN- Special Education Needs, I help with a young girl (10 yrs old) with cerebral palsy, she needs some help with toileting and getting around the playground and also academically, I also help the class teacher with other children that have learning difficulties, nothing diagnosed but are that far behind the rest of the class they need additional support, I went into the school to get experience before I studied for my post grad to do Primary Teaching and honestly I couldn't be a teacher, their job is a varied and hard job, yeah the holidays are good but the term times are long, I believe I get more job satisfaction from what I do, I don't get paid accordingly but the look on the kids faces that I help really out weigh the wages at the end of the month...follow your dream, your will be rewarded as will the kids...
Reply:nebrakase mosaic help people with disable people
Reply:There are some programs around helping people with disabilities living independently (I'm in one). With your background, either teaching as part of a course for the disabled or doing that sort of thing (helping people with paperwork and such) might be a good idea.

I'm not sure about jobs in UK or Ireland exactly though - I only know we have both of these projects done by several organisations here (Belgium), and as far as I know the people in it get paid, unless they're only volunteering for three hours a week (minority, about 2% of all those I know who do that). Try asking Social Services or an employment agency, they might be able to tell you where to ask.

Good on you for wanting to do this, there should be more people like you around!

Reply:So many disabilities - make a list of all the ones you can think of then go for one which will interest you and find contacts for that particular disability.

If you want to work with deaf people, for example, many colleges offer leisure courses in various levels of signing - always a useful skill; I spent some years working at exhibitions and because I had a little signing, visitors to the exhibitions were always directed to me. Not so much because my signing was good, but because I understood the problem of communication for them.

The more skills you have to offer, the more jobs you will find available.
Reply:Before getting a job supporting people with disabilities I suggest that you do some reading about disability rights and the independent living movement. It's great that you want to help but disabled people don't need charity, we need independence. One great website to check out is: www.bbc.co.uk/ouch/
Reply:Look in the phone book to where you will be living. Ring up and send out resumes to companies listed under "disabilty support." This is how I have always got a job in less than two weeks of moving somewhere new.

I've been in the industry for 11 years and employers are crying out for new staff. Most companies will pay for and organise your training.

Just go in with the right attitude:

*People are people first, disabilty second.

*Support people to help themselves as much as possible.

*Be flexable and a good sense of humour/fun helps too.

P.S. I love my job, the clients are awesome!!!
Reply:I hope you get the job that you want, people with disabilities need folk like you.

Jobs that still give you time to play?!?!?

Any jobs that have summers off (other than public school teacher?) Or jobs that are flexible enough for you to be able to take vacation when you want.

Jobs that still give you time to play?!?!?

You might look at flight attendant, cruise ship employee, Working for a resort, working at an amusement park, etc.

Are IT jobs always this difficult to find?

2009-11-16T17:40:00.002-08:00

My husband is currently in school to get his associates in IT/Networking. He also already has a job in the IT field as a network administrator for a school district. We just found out recently that he will be laid off at the end of the year because the school is in serious money trouble. We've both been looking around on job sites for another job for him. We've been looking for about a month and a half now, and haven't heard back from any of these people about the jobs. (not all of them are IT jobs) I'm starting to think it's because my husband has been "laid off" from every single job he's had. My husband has night blindness and can therefore only work the daylight hours, and is usually the first to go when it comes to layoff's. It's not until july that he gets let go from this current job, but I'm not sure where else to go and look for jobs. We've been everywhere online, and can't really find anything. We don't really have the gas money to drive around a look for another one. Help!

Are IT jobs always this difficult to find?
Getting laid off in IT is common.

Much of IT work is at night -- if his night blindness just means he can't drive at night, many IT jobs would be remote support at night (or all the time).

Unfortunately, there's not very strong demand if you are not in the right specialty.

He should be able to get a job next summer, just maybe not an ideal job, maybe not great pay.
Reply:In the right specialty? I was thinking of becoming a It in networking also. I thought it was full time, also what do you do for the school with a I.T in networking? Im worried about which degree in I.T to take.

Here is my 2 cents of advice. The first poster is right. Put a AD in the newspaper about services your husband offers, to fix pc's to build your own, technical help etc. What I would do ^^, I can do it, but no degree. Even tho I dont need one o.o hmmm....

Jobs With Minimal Training?

2009-11-16T17:40:00.000-08:00

I'm 18 years old and have only just started in the workforce, hence I've only had about 5 months of experience and I know that if I want a better paying job experience will help. Becuase of that I'm considering going to school for a small trade like Bartending or Nail Tech to make more that $7 p/h which is how much I make now, and considering what I'm foing (Pantry chef) I think I could make more somewhere else. The problem is I want a job that will look like I'm intrested in my major career path so anything business or medical. SSSOOOO can anyone think of jobs that I can do with a short term schooling (No more than 6 months) or jobs period that a petite girl could do (No Stock or anything like, I wish I could but I'm too weak) or any job that doesn't require any schooling. So basically a job that:

1.Minimal Schooling or none

2. Can do in afternoon/night

3. Petite girl can do

4. Pays ALOT more than $400 every 2 wks

Jobs With Minimal Training?
ok i see half of these people arent even answering your question.

you want a job in the MEDICAL FIELD that you don't have to go to school for no longer than 6months.

ok, i will answer you!

phlebotomist, cna, emt, ekg technician, huc, all these (in spartanburg) are from 4 weeks, to 6 months long.

go to a technical college around your area and see what kind of health science programs they have and see how long they last... a lot of continuing education programs (like cna or emt, sometimes a phlebotomist) are short lengths like 4-8 weeks. so that would be your best bet. a cna might not be too good for you since you have to be able to lift patients.
Reply:You really are inexperienced at employment. BOTH options you suggested are nearly totally dependent on tips--and some barmaids sell other services besides mixing drinks, having put up with drunks, punk and cursing.

And NEITHER are worth showing on ANY resume if you plan to go into business or "medical".

Reply:Administrative Assistant is a job that requires what you are looking for and can be used as a stepping stone towards any field in the office job industry.

Remember that you will benifit a great deal from volunteering on the side, most people don't realize or think that since everyone else volunteers that there is little to gain. This is very untrue as you will find out if you ever decide to goto school, that volunteering can be a great resource. A lot of people find a job while they are working with the volunteers.

Another point to give here is, that you are going to find the best jobs when you network. Sure, online places like careerbuilder and monster are good for having people see your resume. But, nothing beats word of mouth, almost all the jobs out there are still coming to people in this way. So talk to people, family and friends or ask total strangers about where is a good place to work in your area for what you want. Massive amounts of people are looking for these type of jobs and you showing interest will get you a leg up.

Driving jobs but not Tractor trailer.?

2009-11-16T17:39:00.003-08:00

I have a CDL class B and when I look for driving

jobs 90% are Class A or local delivery jobs that

want you to work as a Independent Contractor

and I don't want that. Why are there not more jobs

in the non-tractor trailor sector. In the 1980s there

were lots of courier jobs but most of those are gone now. I currently drive a straight truck for

UPS-SCS(formerly Emery Worldwide) and been

there 18 years and the air freight business is terrible right now unlike 11 years ago we were

very busy. I am wondering if I lose my job how

difficult will it be to find a CDL Class B driving job?

Seems like class B jobs are very few and far between.

Driving jobs but not Tractor trailer.?
When people pay a wage, they want to get the biggest bang for the buck, particularly with a shortage of drivers.

Why not upgrade to A class? You are right that B class is a dying option.

Jobs And Social Security Question??? Please Help!!?

2009-11-16T17:39:00.002-08:00

Are our Past jobs on our Social Security???

When u fill out a job application and u dont feel like listing all ur past jobs down....Is that a BAD thing to not do?

Will all our past jobs be on our Social Security card and will they check to see how many jobs we had in the past???

Thank u all so much....I'm just curious and I hate to always list all of my past jobs when i'm filling out applications and sometimes i dont list all....

Jobs And Social Security Question??? Please Help!!?
lol..NO! u have nothing to worry about.

I dont even think its possibe for them to search ur job history with your social security number. Most if not always when a job ask for ur ss# its for tax purposes are maybe for a background check. ( not for jobs, but for any criminal activities or felonies)

hope this helped.
Reply:Yes Social Security has a list of every job that ever paid to your Social Security number. Employers do not have access to that record unless you work for Social Security. Only you can get the sheet with proper ID etc.

If you tell a employer you worked for ten years, but only list to 5 or 7 years, it tells them you do not follow instructions. They look at your application which is the same as the resume, but just to check if you filled out all the questions. They are not read over the resume in writing for a better understanding.
Reply:they dont have access to your social security records
Reply:Yes, you can track all your jobs through SS.

Question about jobs women's jobs...?

2009-11-16T17:39:00.001-08:00

I would like to pose a question about something that has bothered me for some time. There are a number of jobs--jobs typically held by women--that tend to be low on the pay scale. E.g. teaching, childcare, social work, MR services. When people remark that these jobs are underpaid, others often say "but you should do it because you love it, not for the money."

Why is it that jobs that are typically held by women pay so much less, and that passion, not money, is considered an adequate reward for some of the hardest jobs out there? Certainly, these jobs offer many rewards, but also many stresses, high case loads, large classrooms, burnout, etc. Of course, one can choose a different profession, but *someone* has to teach our children, offer daycare, etc. If someone is passionate about being a stockbroker or banker, does that mean that the job shouldn't pay well?

This isn't my first post about salary but I guess this is something that interests me. Just wondering people's thoughts.

Question about jobs women's jobs...?
It is a multidimensional answer from my perspective.

1) We live in a capitalistic world and those jobs that are more closely related to the development of monetary wealth are more valued

2) We live in a sexist world and men have dominated the work world for centuries which leads both to valuing more of what they have valued (capitalism) and to recruit and support other men coming into the profession (the glass ceiling still exists).

3) We as a society have mixed feelings and attitudes toward society's role and goals in respect to social or common good...and those areas you have identified are all related to social or common good. We want to help those in need; but only if we remain in control and/or the people we serve are deserving. The mixed feelings society as a whole has results in not wanting to contribute what the service really should cost.

4) Private vs. public service. Closely related to the last point and the first is our current obsession with privatization (in CA we are now looking at privatizing the lottery). Most of the professions you mention are public. We can see where those that are private sometimes pay more (this is most clear in the military - the private military in IRAQ makes many times more than the public military doing the same work. We see this in human services and in some cases education.

Good Jobs in U.S?

2009-11-16T17:38:00.003-08:00

Which of these jobs would be easier, which one should I pick?

2009-11-16T17:38:00.002-08:00

I got offered 2 jobs

First job is it is a telemarketing/customer service job at a call center that involves inputting phone card minutes into peoples accoutns %26amp; talking up sales pitches

The other is a retail job, dollar tree to be exact, sounds kind of lame but it will be my first retail job,

Dollar store job is right down the block, the call center job is roughly 25 - 30 miles away.

WHich would you pick?

I really want the first job since I have experience in marketing anyways. The thing is they literally just informed me about the oppourtunity a few hours ago, whereas I already interviewed for the second job and they want to hire me, they just didn't give me a definitive answer.

Which of these jobs would be easier, which one should I pick?
First of all, take the job that is offered first to make sure you do end up with a job. Do not turn one down waiting for an official job offer that may not come.

If you like the idea of working at the call center, will you earn enough money to pay for the transportation costs? You will be spending $6 or $7 dollars per day in just gasoline to get to work, not counting the travel time that you will be using out of your day, at least an hour per day.

Stop and think what your goals are for your immediate future (6 months from now) and your longer term future (two years from now). Is the call center a place you will want to be in the future? Do you want to work in retail or customer service?

Take two pieces of paper. Write down the good and bad things about each job. Set it aside overnight. Look at it again with a rested mind. See which of these two jobs has the most good things with the fewest bad things.

I am betting that you have career goals that go beyond the retail job or the call center. Think about which job will be the best to get you were you want to be in the future, like which job will be better to have while attending school.

I am not going to say which job I would rather do as that is not really important, though I have done both. Good Luck!
Reply:i would pick telemarket/customer service because if you got another job you would want a good record of where you worked

And alot of Dollar tree stores get robbed
Reply:I don't know what you should pick, but here are some questions that I would consider if I were in your position.

Does the call center job pay enough to make your commute worthwhile? 25 - 30 miles each way is 50 to 60 miles a day. you could be looking at $10 per day or more in fuel expenses alone with this job. Now add on your additional after work and weekend driving. You could be spending lots of your incoime on gas. Also, when you work that far from home, you tend to eat out more so that is an additional expense.

For both jobs, what shifts will you have to work? Will they be compatible with your lifestyle and needs? Will you have some daytime free time that will enable you to go look for another job when you get tired of this one?

What will you be able to learn at each job? At the call center, will you really get to practice good customer service, or will you work from a script? There is a big difference. At $-tree will you be able to work your way toward really understanding what it takes to run a retail store or will you just stock shelves? If you get the chance to really help with things like scheduling staff, ordering inventory, and evaluating your store's results, you will gain good experience that you can put on a resume. I would pick the job where I felt I would get the greatest opportunity to gain knowledge I could use at my next employer.

Are you willing to give up more than an hour a day of your personal time to drive back and forth to work? I consider my commute unpaid work time and factor that in when I calculate my true rate of pay per work hour...

Good luck in your decision

Jobs for accountant major with no AA or BS accounting degree ???

I still in college, I am thinking about accountant major. that's why I think will take some classes for accountant. I would like to look for some job to get experience for accountant, so I will know I like accountant or not. I dont know if I take a job in a bank, like a bank teller. Will this job give me experience about accountant ? if not please reccommend me some jobs to know about accountants.

I am in college, I will start some classes for accountant, so I will do any jobs in accountant with low pay to get experience. Please reccommend me, thanks so much

Jobs for accountant major with no AA or BS accounting degree ???
Bank teller skills are generally ONLY cash handling not balancing and using accounting principles. If you have had Accounting I or Accounting II then you will have a better understanding of the job responsibilities of an accountant. Once you have an understanding of the function of an accounting, some entry level accounting jobs are Accounting Clerk, Accounts Payable Clerk, Accounts Receivable Clerk working towards Full Charge Bookkeeper. These positions will get you involved in the Financial Statement and Balance Sheet preparation phase and business function.

My recommendation, take the 2 courses FIRST as these two classes will really prepare you for a career in accounting. If you do not enjoy the classes you will not enjoy the career choice.

Hope this helps,

How many people have lost their jobs to illegals?

2009-11-16T17:38:00.000-08:00

I finally figured it out. I kept hearing about all

those jobs Americans just won't do. We're never really

told what they are, but I guess we should be happy

they're getting done and stop complaining about all

the negative aspects of having twenty million illegal

aliens in our midst.

Perhaps we should just accept the idea that 25

American citizens are going to continue to be killed

every day by illegals - half of them by drunk drivers

- because it's a small price to pay to get all those

jobs done.

We should get used to the idea that nearly four

million children of illegals are filling our public

schools, and that more than 300,000 illegal aliens are

serving time in our prisons. There are another 640,000

illegals who should be in prison but aren't because

they are fugitives. We're not paying to incarcerate

them, so that's a plus, but unfortunately they are

probably the ones responsible for killing those 25

Americans every day. And, of course, we are getting

those jobs done.

We really shouldn't complain about the resurgence of

heretofore-eradicated diseases, including Tuberculosis

and the plague. You've probably heard that bedbugs are

also making a comeback. But it's okay, because we're

getting all those jobs done.

I guess we should be more than willing to pay the

cost for illegals to flood our hospital emergency

rooms for free service; and it's the least we can do

to declare their babies born on our soil as American

citizens. What else could a compassionate society do

for people doing all those jobs for us?

Americans should be happy to press one for English

and to sort through multicultural instructions written

in Spanish (and sometimes other languages) in order to

find the English directions. But again, who else is

going to do all those jobs? Snobby, self-indulgent

Americans? I don't think so.

I have to confess that I was less than thrilled

recently to see my local super market put up new signs

over their food aisles directing customers to the item

of their choice in both English and Spanish. I found

myself wondering how long it would take me to figure

out in Mexico City that "Jalapeño" means "Pepper." But

after I thought about all those jobs lazy, spoiled

Americans (apparently including me) simply won't do, I

realized it was well worth whatever inconvenience I

might experience.

To tell you the truth, I was at a loss to figure out

which jobs the invading hordes of illegals actually

were doing that my fellow Americans and I won't do.

Oh, I know the usual answers, but those don't seem to

be the jobs I see them doing. In fact, I see them

roofing houses and making good money at it. I see them

working hard at more and more skilled jobs that people

I know personally would gladly do.

Then, as I wrote at the beginning of this column, I

finally figured it out. It was the story of the Fort

Dix Six that finally made it all click for me. Six

Muslim men were arrested for plotting to kill American

soldiers at Fort Dix, New Jersey.

I have a photo hanging on my office wall of my

father's Army platoon at Fort Dix . It is dated April

4, 1942. Fort Dix has been a primary jumping-off point

for our troops headed overseas for generations, which,

of course, is what made it such a tempting target.

At least three of the Fort Dix Six were in this

country illegally. They were brothers. They owned a

roofing company. Again, that's not a job American

workers won't do, so what could they possibly be doing

here? That's when it hit me.

Being a member of a terrorist cell is the one job

Americans just won't do.

Maybe we all need to contact our senators and

representatives one more time about the travesty of

justice currently coming up for a vote. If you do,

please do it before it becomes law. Oh yeah, make

sure to include the president on the list. Maybe, if

all else fails, we can persuade him to, or coerce him

into, a veto of this latest give away of our national

sovereignty.

Reply:My sincerest apologies on behalf of all the illegal aliens living in the United States.

I'm so sorry that people have to leave their loved ones to come to the United States to find a better life. But wouldn't you relocate if you knew that jobs were available somewhere else?

Just so you know, some of the jobs that illegal immigrants perform include gardening, hospitality, textile work, and child care. Would you rather hire a person who demands $12 per hour or more (because that's what they should be paid for such work) or hire someone who will be naive enough to accept only $8, and will eagerly do overtime?

Lastly, I'm so sorry that illegal high school graduates have to join the Army and fight for the country that is so rightfully yours.

I'm so sorry that illegal immigrants are trying to screw you, because you sound like a great, compassionate guy who clearly doesn't deserve it.

Just out of curiosity, when and why did your ancestors come to the United States?
Reply:All jobs done by illegals could have been jobs for legal citizens or legal immigrants or people who are utilizing their work visas. So 100% of their jobs. There is no job that a person will not do. The pay is the issue. Teens will do any job, the poor will do any job, and the homeless will do any job. If you get a person that won't, you find a person that will. It does not have to be an illegal.

Chicago Jobs? Why are they listed so far away?

2009-11-16T17:37:00.003-08:00

I'm really getting ticked off at the various web sights as well as some of our government run job help services. I live near MidWay Airport. Jobs I am matched to are 95% of the time near Joliet, NW Indiana, north of O'Hare, west near Rockford, but none are near by. We are supposed to be going "green" in this country. Yet, employers would want me driving for 3 hours a day to waste 50% of my new job income in my gas tank. This matching my skills with jobs so far away is absolutly stupi. I've even put in my skills things like Experience: "If you are father than 5 miles from my home address don't waste my time contacting me, and save your time as well." Still, I get job offeres from Wisconsin, Taxas, over-seas. What's up? Are there no jobs nearby so I can be "green" and help save energy? I guess even employers are "greed-orientated" and want us in the car 3 hours per day, wasting even more precious gas. Comments? I will NOT accept a job over 10 miles from my home address.

Chicago Jobs? Why are they listed so far away?
Carpool. Ride Metra. Ride Pace. Move closer. If being "green" is so important to you, then do something to get the job AND make it environmentally sound. If not, stop complaining and get a job at the airport.

Questions about Quitting Jobs?

2009-11-16T17:37:00.002-08:00

Hey, I am 24 and have been through a few jobs, some i stayed forever even though i hated it and some did like but not enough hours. The problem i have, is I always , always, feel so guilty quitting a job. Its takes me weeks to even get the nerve to give notice, and my family and friends always have to hear me talk about it 24/7. I feel its the only thing that defines me sometimes (my job), because thats all people ask me all the time..so when i quit jobs i feel like a loser even though the job makes me very miserable. For example i worked one job 2 years as a first aid attendent, i got so bored of it, i drove myself into booze and depression, if i would have just quit that wouldnt have happened. I am looking for a job right now again, but trying to be picky so i can actually have fun going to work once in awhile. But i cannot understand the huge guilt trip i get on when i quit a job, anyone else like this? and how can i just forget and move on from old jobs...thanks for any advice

Questions about Quitting Jobs?
no regrets ever hun. that's what i live by. you can't go through life regretting what you have done. i like the advice one person gave you about finding another job before you quit the current one. it sounds to me like you are highly intelligent and certain jobs bore you. i think this because i am the same way. i am in the fabrication business myself. unfortunately, i am not as happy as i probably should be. i was in the military and that i loved. i still do. i got hurt and now i can never go back so i make a decent living doing what i do. i will never feel guilty for trying to better myself and neither should you. you are worth more than that. you need to realize that it's just a job. not who you are but rather what you do. i love the discipline of the military and i have been a marine for a long time, however, i am a man first and a child of God before anything. that's what keeps me going and not regretting anything.

Reply:You shouldn't be so hard on yourself. My husband has his on business and people come and go, that's business. If you are bored in your job, get another one, do that until you as a person is satisfied. How can people judge you for the work you do, you are who you are, with or with out a job. You are young so go out and find what YOU want, and if it takes you to quit 10 jobs before you get what you want, then so be it. You owe that to yourself to do something YOU want and be happy. Good luck
Reply:First of all do you have any education? If you do pick a job you like. Working is a lifetime thing and you have to love your job or you will always be miserable. Just give your notice and that is that. Nothing to feel guilty about. Just tell them this job is not for you.

Reply:first, convince yourself that it was for the best. second, find a higher paying job (if possible). third, before you quit your job, get hired somewhere else so that when you quit you still have a job.
Reply:I know the feeling. The guilt emerges because our society has us believe that we are meant to work for money. There is nothing wrong with not wanting to work somewhere that makes you feel miserable. Keep looking until you find something you are comfortable with or get some training to work at a job you think you would like. Sometimes it's simply the people who work at that particular place, and sometimes it's the actual nature of the work that makes you miserable. It's very stressful to be unemployed, but if you settle for something you don't like, it's much worse in the long run. Best of luck - and remember, you are a human being FIRST - work is just work!
Reply:i know how you feel but i found the best way to deal is to just ignore them and find other things to talk about that or maybe find some other people to hang out with that dont talk about jobs all day long and worry about others lives.

Btw a lil bonus advice what do you like to do like ex. do you like kids maybe try babysitting or something like watching movies you could work at a movie store or place. That or go to school and find some interest while there and earn the ability for a better job.

Do you list jobs where you've only worked for a few months, if you had another long term job at the same time?

2009-11-16T17:37:00.001-08:00

I'm a fulltime college student, and I've been on the same job five years, but have tried a few other jobs during this time which I didn't like, so I left after a few months. Is it considered lieing on the application if I don't list the short term jobs? Can an employer find out?

I want to leave my current job, but only if I can find a place that pays better, where I feel more comfortable. Otherwise, it's not worth leaving a job I've been on five years.

So, when filling out job applications, do you list all employers, including those where you only stayed a few months? How long would you have to work at a job before you'd consider listing them on your application? I'm worried that employers may be turned off if they see I've worked a couple of jobs 3-6 months and then left, even if I did remain employed on another job over five years during that time.

Do you list jobs where you've only worked for a few months, if you had another long term job at the same time?
No. You don't need to list all the short term jobs. However, there is one exception. If you have acquired a relevant skills for the new job you are applying, and the only way to mention that relevant skill on your resume is to include the short term job, then you should list the job.

Best wishes.
Reply:No not generally. Then the employer will want to know why you were only ther for a few months and will think you are not able to keep stable employment. If you think they may help you to get the new job you can refer to them as examples in your interviews and refer to them as term positions or work experience..
Reply:I have a few jobs that I only worked at for a few weeks. I never listed them. The only thing you have to worry about is explaining the gaps where you left those jobs out. Other than that, they wont know.
Reply:only list them if you think you are rehire able such as you gave them a notice before you left, a previous employer cant say exactly why you are not rehireable or rehireable because of lawsuits/defamation of character, so if you think they would say you are rehireable then yes but say it was supplemental income along the way, and that you are now looking for a new job in your career path

Classroom Jobs for 2nd and 3rd Graders?

I'm looking for some new suggestions. I don't have a chalkboard, I have a whiteboard, we don't do lunch count, and our attendance is done online, so that elimantes some jobs. I am in a portable this year, so I'll need kids to run into the building to get books and supplies occasionally, but I don't think it's often enough to be a job. And I don't have any plants to water. Suggestions?

Also, do you assign your jobs for the week or daily? I did weekly last year, with 2 "substitutes". I just hated it when the kids would come in and complain about their job, so towards the end of the year I eliminated jobs and just tried to get them to be cooperative and work without assigned jobs. But, it's the beginning of the year, and I think we need jobs.

Thanks in advance!

Classroom Jobs for 2nd and 3rd Graders?
I also taught a 2/3 combo class in a portable. One thing I learned was any job that requires leaving the classroom and entering the building should be done in 2's...for safety and because students are less likely to wonder the building (yeah peer pressure!).

You did not say how many kids you have in your class...that would be the total number of jobs required (obviously).

Line leader, caboose, pencil sharpener, paper passer, paper collector, floor inspector, concierge (holds the door to the classroom %26amp; building open until last person passes through), librarian, desk fairy (inspector), lunch cart carriers (2 people), reader (student reads aloud to class last 5 or 10 minutes of the day from a chapter book), snack helper, homework folder checker, folder stuffer, messengers (2 people), nurse's assistant (escort the ill to the nurse), recess helpers (2 people, to collect students at the far end of the field when it is time to come in), board/overhead cleaner, "lights %26amp; alternate" (turns classroom lights on/off %26amp; is the sub).

I changed jobs every Monday...it made life a lot easier for everyone. I had a small class though...so each student got to have the same job about every 7 weeks or so. If you have a large class, you may want to rotate it often to keep them happy.

To prevent complaints and to not have to hear "when will I be the.....?" daily, this is what I did:

Write each child's name on a craft/Popsicle stick. Attach a piece of magnetic tape to the back of each stick (Michaels craft store or teacher supply store). Put the sticks on your board in a single column. To the right of the names, post a laminated list of jobs in a single column. Place each child's name next to their jobs. The next Monday, remove the bottom name, push all the sticks down and put the bottom name up at the top of the names list. The kids can see in advance how many more Mondays until they get to have the job of their choice. For my jobs list, I actually used the same method of craft sticks because I would often have to remove or add jobs as I had a very transient class...kids were always coming or going.
Reply:Some jobs I had for my 3rd graders and will have for my 2nd grade class this year: Librarian (straightened up the library and could read on the bean bags in the library), classroom cleaners (picked up at least 10 pieces of trash off the floor at the end of the day), board monitor (erased the white board at the end of the day and changed the date for the next day), paper monitors (passed out papers), table supervisor (monitored and checked in homework for their table), turtle keeper (fed the turtle at the end of the day), line monitor (walked up and down the line making sure everyone was behaving and then was line end), student of the week (had other privileges but was also line leader), gym leader (handed out balls for recess and equipment for P.E.and led warm-up exercises), on vacation (had no job), and substitutes.

We changed jobs weekly. On Monday morning I would draw sticks and have them choose which job they would like for the week, but they had to choose a job they hadn't done yet. Once they tried all the jobs then they could start over. It worked well...not too many complaints. There were (of course) favorite jobs that everyone wanted, and jobs that weren't very popular. But they would get very excited when they got to choose a job they really wanted.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

NO jobs in michigan?

2009-11-16T17:36:00.002-08:00

Did you notice that the fack there are no jobs in michigan is not making the newes it You can even get a job at a Mcdonals Tacol bell or WaL-Mart I not talking good jobs just any jobs like 6.95 mim wage to 10 a hour jobs. But no jobs. In new orlines there jobs every where but it makes the newes like bad because of the hurrcane. They make war and other Issuses far more inportain than the fact there no jobs in michagan.

NO jobs in michigan?
you underestimate the job market here in Detroit (and all of Southeastern Michigan for that matter). There really is nowhere to work. No McJobs, no temp service work, its pretty bad. There is some small job creation and openings, but that if far outweighed by the number of layoffs and secondary job-cuts that have been made around here. If I had to guess, the ratio of "any job" to applicant has got to be close to 500 to 1. And for skilled manufacturing work, literally 10,000 to 1.

But, enough boo hoo, and on to the reason no one seems to care... Its an inevitability to globalization and an opportunity to adapt to a new model of doing business. The auto companies were built when the idea was 'Manpower'. Now, its computerized assembly lines, and 1/10 the work force is needed. So, everyone is taking this opportunity to slim down, modernize, and stay viable (hopefully). This is inevitable, but the effects on this local economy have been devestating. 1 in 39 homes in foreclosure, severance packages are running out, unemployment ran out long ago on literally 10s of thousands..

Its not pretty, but its my home, if you don't like it, leave before you get shot...

Jobs in South Korea.....???

2009-11-16T17:36:00.001-08:00

Ok....... i need a job in South Korea....I want to go to a University in Seoul, but i need a job...... does any one know a web site or any info of a job/jobs.. i can get in S.korea.. preferably in Seoul..that involves the English language?...... My friend was offerd a job in seoul to teach english, starting in the early spring of 06....see me and like 5 other peoplez were suppost to go on vaction to Seoul ... to see our friend .. the one how got a job as an english teacher.. but 2 of us are trying not to come back to the U.S....So we need to find/know what jobs are available in S.Korea. Thanks.

Jobs in South Korea.....???
Yeah, David esl.com It is pretty famous and has many of job offers.

From my friend I heard, you need degree from your country( oh! shoulden't be fake one. if they catch you, then you will go to jail other wise you will be evict and can't come back to korea at least 5 years. and also your name ID, everytrhing will be on the black list. so.....basically your days in Korea will say good bye forever. )

Sorry, will stop for negative part.

Um...

Well... so many of English institue are in Korea. In Seoul, or other cities. It is every wehre. and many of book publishment company need native english speaker( they can be more picky. some of them ask you to speak Korean). and Universty. import or export company...etc. If you want to be in sea side think about Busan area. there is a lot of import or export company and forigne comunity is quite big as Seoul as I heard.

I hope you find a good job and have a good experience to be in Korea. If you meet a nice boss, your life will be nice and wonderful if you meet a consalvative tipical Korean boss, then your life in Korea can be little bit.......miserable.

Good luck.

And for the last coment, PLEASE don't make another bad story of AMERICANS in Korea. we have so many of American (especially man)slu* story between ppl. just fuc**** around Korean girls and being man slu*. you know what I mean.

If you don't want to get serious with Korean girl(Or any other country gilrs I mean), show some respect~ plz.

You guys are making your own reputaion. Remember.

Also like other side of coin,

be careful Korean slu*.

They are not poor ppl at all.

But they enjoy taking advantage from you.

Open your eyes clearly all the times.

OK.

I always talk too much!!!

Hopefully find a good job and a nice boss for ya!!

Reply:You can find a job no problem on Dave's ESL, ESL Monkey or any number of sites. Can't remember them all off the top of my head. That is how I ended up here and been here a long time now. But you must, I can't stress this enough, must have a degree in anything from an accredited University in your home country. You also must be from one of the recognized countries, ie. Canada, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, the US, or the United Kingdom. Any of these countries and your fine. Anywhere else and they won't give you the time of day. Teaching here can be a bit harsh sometimes. I know teachers who came thinking they were actually going to teach, and ended up as really well paid babysitters. These are not too many, you just need to know what you are looking for in a job. Also if you are looking at Seoul remember that you may have to find your own place to live and pay for a portion of it. Outside of Seoul housing is usually provided. I don't work in Seoul and probably never will, too crowded, I am a girl who grew up in the country and there are just way too many people there for me. If you like that kind of hustle and bustle though it is a great place, lots to do and see. If you enter the country prior to beginning a job though also be aware that you will have to leave the country and re enter it to get a work visa. Korea has an agreement with a few countries for doing this quickly and easily.

What jobs are the immigrants doing that no British person would do?

2009-11-16T17:36:00.000-08:00

every other posting i read about immigration says we need more to do the jobs the british person would refuse to do,

there are nine employment agencies were i live, ive registed with all of then, [no reply] but all the new immigrants [and there are alot] seem to be working for the agencies,

even the job centre admits over 80% of the jobs they advitise are agency jobs,so if there not gonna employ me becuase im english and the job centre dont have any jobs, [ must be all of the jobs the british dont want to do] , more of a case of im all right jack, cant see the problem [till its youre job]

What jobs are the immigrants doing that no British person would do?
People will hire immigrants because they know immigrants will work hard for little pay and THATS what british people (and Americans) aren't willing to do.

Immigrants are not literally stealing jobs like ppl say, they dont go into a place and tell the employees "get out of here i'm taking your job" its the employer!

I know of alot of immigrants here living in tiny apartments or shared rooms, and having to pay with the little money they get from washing dishes, bussing tables or cleaning. They use little money to live on and people think they're living here like kings? Give me a break! People should get to know a family of immigrants, watch how hard they work and how little they have yet theyre surviving before they go judge and want to throw them out of the country.

Immigrants work harder and longer hours than the employees in McDonalds on a $100 less than minimum wage paycheck, WHO HERE IS WILLING TO DO THAT? and they dont even complain about the wages theyre happy to just work, but no one treats them fairly.

My friend who is an immigrant works at a pizzeria and he tells me how his co-worker get hit and yelled at by the boss. The boss burned a guy with hot spatula and he kicked him in the leg, the guy had pain in his leg for a week but he wasnt aloud to get any days off.

I wish i was making this up, but its true and i've heard more and worst stories.

I've went to agencies here in New York where there are many immigrants and I pay them a 100 dollars and they send me to get a job right away, if i don't like it or if i'm not hired they have to find me another place where i will stay for at least a week. Theres another agency where i dont even have to pay until I'm hired for sure. I'm not an immigrant so why has this been easy for me? I have worked with immigrants and i see the harsh treatment they get. They are worked overtime like everyday and do filthy jobs for little cash.
Reply:There no job here in the UK, that a British worker will not do, you just have to pay them enough money to do it. Unfortunately foreigners will work for next to nothing, as for them its an improvement on their present standard of living, Here employers are taking advantage of that, and getting what is basically slave labour, this in turn keeps their costs down, which keeps inflation down. If they had to pay a British worker the going rate, costs would escalate, which would push up price's in turn pushing up inflation. The governemnt is fully aware of this, but its main objective is to try and keep inflation under control. Don't believe for one minute, its got anything to do with the British being lazy.
Reply:I dont know, but I know there isnt a job im unwilling to do and when I had to leave my last job as a result of ill health and when I got back to work it took me 4 months to find another job and everywhere i applied had Africans, Asians, and Poles working there, I think its like you say a case of 'im alright jack'

Reply:Probably work at the minimum wage.
Reply:I do'nt believe that it is a case of the British not wanting to do the jobs,it is the case of not being able to afford to do them.Most British people pay very high rents/mortgage plus all the other bills and the wages these jobs pay are not enough to live on.I live in LIncolnshire and there are thousands of immigrants working the fields and factories round here and some of them live in the most appalling conditions and very over crowded so they can send their money home.They also come over in their own cars which have no road tax,mot or insurance and the police do nothing!If we did'nt have to pay out all odf these things required of a British Citizen,then we could probably be able to afford to work for the minimum wage(allthough hubby only 15pence and hour over that anyway).There is no fairness iff you are legal and observe all the rules and regulations imposed upon us by the British Government etc.

Reply:I am in West Lancashire and most of the land is in arable production. I know a number of farmers in the area and they tell me that they cannot find native labour for crop gathering. A lot of produce can be picked mechanically but some veggies such as leeks, cabbages, lettuce, celery have to be picked by hand and trimmed. It is back breaking work and the only people willing to take it on are mainly eastern europeans. They also have to live in grotty old caravans for the season and they barely get above minimum wage. However, they are prepared to do it and I am reliably informed that they are prepared to graft, don't skive and don't insist on a tea break every hour. So, there you are - plenty of jobs up here.

The rest are foreign workers. The owner said his wages bill has been cut by 40%. It's a side effect of allowing open immigration from new EU countries. Many said it would happen and it has. I think they call it "open economy". Trouble is it's open for any Tom, Dick or Harry who'll work for peanuts.
Reply:Try going into all the agencies again... don't talk in English, mutter in random foreign phrases you may have picked up along your travels and give them a dodgy home made passport or something - they will probably snap you up in no time! :-)

What jobs can a linguist get?

2009-11-16T17:35:00.002-08:00

I am in high school and i LOVE languages! i am currently taking three (German, French and Welsh) As a job i would love to able to learn new languages and use them for something useful. I know that lots of jobs for linguists include teaching a language or like working for a large company, however I don't believe I would be really good at, or enjoy either job. Not to be picky but are there any other jobs that linguists can do? Like i think my dream job would be like comparing languages to each other and like seeing how they developed overtime and like still get to learn more languages. Is that a real job or do i need to compromise with an office job or something? or in order to do my dream job should i take a different major?

*sorry this is REALLY long*

What jobs can a linguist get?
Sincerely speaking from my heart and for your best interest, majoring as a linguist or in semantics (this concentration can be worded many ways) wouldn't be profitable in this day and age since English, Spanish, Chinese and Russian are the world's top 4 languages utilized.

This is due to globalization and modernization... therefore you are better off making a living on other fast-growth jobs like business, technology, science or health.

I’ve had 9 jobs in 3 years, am I a job-hopper? Or am I a good job hunter?

2009-11-16T17:35:00.001-08:00

I needed a job when I graduated from college. I was very angry I took a job with a lot of responsibilities, more then someone with years of experience, except I would be paid minimum wage. I needed a job, and they convinced me to see it as investment because I would gain experience. But after a year of working hard, and making very little money, I quit. I then began my cycle of going to through 9 jobs. Quitting as soon as someone offered me more money. Even though I’ve gone through many jobs, I’ve always done such a good job on every one, I keep getting job offers. Right now I’m making what a college graduate should make, but I think I’m doing an even better job than the rest, so I want more money. I quit on December, but I was promised a raise, so I stayed. It’s March, and I still have no raise, I do have another job offering more money. Why should I stay with a company that doesn’t pay their employees what they are worth?

I’ve had 9 jobs in 3 years, am I a job-hopper? Or am I a good job hunter?
Look IF Ur Getting pay more and like what u doing now

then U R A Great Job Hunter

IF Ur just getting pay more or just like it more u OK

but is not one of this is true ... u (suck)...lol

I hope Ur a hunter
Reply:You are definitely a job-hopper and that does NOT look good on a resume. Just because someone offers you more money does not mean you jump at it. Unless it's SUBSTANTIALLY more money and a MUCH BETTER opportunity, then you don't jump form job to job to job to job, all in the course of three short years.
Reply:This is the behavior of a job-hopper. And as a previous poster wrote, it does look bad. It makes potential employers wonder if you're reliable. If another company offers you more money that's good, but it depends how much. $0.50/hour more is not a big enough incentive, and extra $200/week - maybe. Try and keep it to changing jobs once per year and look for jobs where you will learn something new to add to your skillset. Now if an employer offered you more money for you to stay and they haven't made good on it, remind them. If they balk or backpedal, look for another job - the employer isn't worth his word.

Exporting jobs - outsourcing - saves American jobs? Is Bush right this time?

2009-11-16T17:35:00.000-08:00

George Bush, in his weekly radio address, said:

"Protectionism will cost U.S. jobs"

(http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071013/ap_o...

So sending our jobs overseas actually saves American jobs? Why didn't Clinton think of that? Maybe my friends would still have their tech support jobs instead of having to work menial jobs for minimum wage.

But wait, they lost their jobs after Republicans' policies encouraged corporations to open support centers and factories in countries with cheap labor, like India and the Philippines - and to close the ones in the USA where my friends worked.

Another brilliant Bush idea to help working, middle-class Americans, or another way to help wealthy corporations and investors?

Here's an idea! Let's export all of our jobs, and according to Republicans' logic, we'll have zero unemployment!

Exporting jobs - outsourcing - saves American jobs? Is Bush right this time?
It saves them for the Chinese, they collect them like pelts.

After all they had already bought the factories at fire sale prices when American Pirates found they could make more money selling all the equipment in a month then they received in profits in a year or more. And come the next month they could do that to a new company so not have to worry about the loss of the previous one.

Of course the Gang Of Pirates made out like ... well pirates. And the victims of the pirates made out like .... well the victims of pirates, but since the GOP had managed to get control of Congress with their "Contract on America" they felt "entitled".

This Award winning photo perfectly illustrates the GOP concern for the welfare of others.

All of these foreign manufacturers also hire lots of American workers to work with development, procurement, etc.... teams in large companies. Or hire sales personnel, or start factories here like Sony, Honda, Toyota, etc.... My day job is with a large computer company.
Reply:When I was younger I used to move around a lot to basically go where the jobs were. Fortunately, I have not had to do this in years, but, if I was younger and in need of employment, given several other factors that are deteriorating my opinion of this country, I would seriously consider looking in other countries. The middle class seems to be in a process of slowly being 'phased out.' I think we need a serious change in our foreign and domestic policies in order to salvage this once great nation. I don't think the Republicans are going to lead us out of these troubled waters. I won't say that they are totally responsible for the situation we now find ourselves in, nevertheless, they have made a significant contribution.
Reply:"We can only save jobs by sending them overseas". This sounds like the typical double speak from the Bush administration. "White is black, black is white, don't believe your eyes, believe me."

Lies seem to be the major white house export.

Bush doesn't give a damn about a single American worker!
Reply:You must understand that cons live in opposite land where down is up and up is down.
Reply:Actually, Clinton wasn't entirely opposed to exporting US jobs. After all, NAFTA came out of the Clinton administration. Clinton even gave a speech to Asian investors at the Boeing plant in Washington state praising the shift of the economy to service-based jobs.

But there is no doubt that Republicans are the worst offenders where outsourcing is concerned. In a sense, what they are doing is a form of "protectionism" -- that is, the interests of the very rich are protected. Everyone else is supposed to adjust to the new service-based economy. So those who used to have tech support jobs should try to find jobs as managers at their local retail stores or something. I don't know...it's purely criminal behavior. It sickens me that these people drape themselves in the flag and then destroy the country they claim to love.

no matter what the job you have in the marine corp if your an enlisted member you wont be able to find employment in the civialian world. my recruiters are telling me that if i pick the right job such as jet or helicopter or something machanic ill be able to find a job in the real world however if i pick something such as infantry i wont be able to find a job. this makes sense to me i mean the military will train its personal with skills that will greatly benefit them if they pick the right job. it will give them first hand expericence. my uncle who is in the army is telling me that if i enlist in the army or marines i will not be able to find a job in the civialian world no matter what my job was. hes never been in the marines and that doesnt make as much sense. im just curious if someone will be able to answer this question better for me.

im talking enlisted not officer and my asvab score is high enough to get very impressive jobs in the military

thanks in advance

Marines jobs?
Marines and any other soldier has a job opportunity in the civilian life especially in the law enforcement agencies and security related jobs.
Reply:heres a few idea's some of them apply to the marines and some are only offered by the Navy, remember the marines is only a branch of the Navy. Honestly the Navy is now making where you must get a college education to make it past to E-7 and above and for certain fields they are making it easy to earn things like journey man lincenses.

first are you really interest in becoming a mechanic. if so then sure join the helicopter crew. you will make good money when you get out as either a mechanic or even a airport runway firefighter can make over 50k a year. but hanging around a helicoptor is a harsh hot enviroment sometimes.

maybe become a interpreter, they will send you to a school to learn a forign language. if its arabic or chinese. you can make over $70,000 a year as a civilian for the fed's.

you can go into cryptology and learn to work on computer networks. becoming qualified in things like network administration. even learn to hack etc. ssshh the goverment denies they do that. any military IT job is worth it.

you can become a legalmen or yeomen and primarly do goverment paper work. which will do great in the civilian world.

or you can join the sea bee's and become a master electrician or mason.

you can become a HM, and do medical, or you can become a dental assistant in the navy, you can even become postal clerk.
Reply:Even if you only train as an infantryman, the leadership skills and life lessons that the corp, or any branch of the military, will make you very attractive to potential employers. I know that if I owned a business I'd rather have an ex marine working for me then a Harvard grad.
Reply:I served in the Marine Corps Infantry, oorah. After seperating, I attended school at a low cost, state school, and graduated with my Bachelor's and Master's degrees. I am currently employed as a financial statement auditor with KPMG, one of the Big Four public accounting firms. The Big Four firms are the largest, and most prestigious accounting firms in the United States and in the world. I interviewed with three firms, and I received offers from each of the three firms that I interviewed with. I was placed in a job two months before I was finished with school. Just because you make a decision in life does not necesarily mean that something good or something bad is going to happen. My brother would say that advancing in life is all about timing and contacts, and I do agree with that. So my advice to you is to develop a network of contacts in whichever field you are interested in eventually working at. I also believe that a positive mental attitude at all times can keep you on track to meet your goals and succeed in life. I set goals above what I think I can achieve and I keep that positive mental attitude and it has helped me out even during dark times.

Reply:That's not really true,a lot of people who have been in the military are able to find civilian jobs, sometimes even in the same or related field. I know a few people who were in the infantry and they are now in law enforcement, my husband was an aircraft mechanic in the Navy and got a good job doing the same thing as a civilian. With your scores I'm sure you can pick a job that you can carry over to the civilian world. A good one would be air traffic controller.

For those of you who are not sure which job works for you, here are some of US highest paying jobs!!!?

2009-11-16T17:34:00.001-08:00

I hope this helps you to decide your future job!!!

Feel free to write any comments and jobs (your current job) that pays well.

Highest-Paying Jobs in the US

Do what you love and the money will follow is great in theory, but the truth of the matter is, certain jobs and fields simply pay more. The Bureau of Labor Statistics National Compensation Survey showed, for example, that white-collar earnings, which averaged $21.85 per hour, were the highest among occupational groups. Blue-collar pay averaged $15.03 per hour, while the hourly pay of service occupations averaged just $10.40.

The jobs that pay the most require at least a four-year college degree. According to the most recent data from the Employment Policy Foundation, the nation’s 12 top-paying jobs -- and the mean annual income reported in 2003 for each -- were:

Top Paying Jobs Overall

• Physicians and surgeons -- $147,000

• Aircraft pilots -- $133,500

• Chief executives -- $116,000

• Electrical and electronic engineers -- $112,000

• Lawyers and judges -- $99,800

• Dentists -- $90,000

• Pharmacists -- $85,500

• Management analysts -- $84,700

• Computer and information system managers -- $83,000

• Financial analysts, managers and advisors -- $84,000

• Marketing and sales managers -- $80,000

• Education administrators -- $80,000

Though many of these occupations require an advanced degree, there are jobs at every education level that pay more than other jobs for workers with similar levels of schooling. Here, courtesy of the Employment Policy Foundation, is a look at the best-paying occupations at varying education levels:

Top Paying Jobs That Do Not Require a High School Degree

These jobs tend to require substantial on-the-job training and work experience rather than formal education and schooling:

• Industrial production managers -- $36,000

• Bailiffs, correctional officers and jailers -- $36,400

• Drafters -- $36,000

• Construction manager -- $33,600

• Electricians -- $31,900

Top Paying Jobs for High School Graduates

These occupations emphasize work experience and on-the-job training rather than formal education:

• Computer software engineers -- $58,900

• Computer/information systems managers -- $56,400

• Computer programmers -- $55,000

• Network systems and data communications analysts -- $49,000

• General and operations managers -- $48,000

• Database, network and computer systems administrators -- $48,000

Top Paying Jobs for a Two-Year College Degree

The following jobs tend to be technical in nature, emphasizing skills developed on the job as well as job-specific training and certifications:

• Healthcare practitioners -- $66,000

• Business analysts -- $58,000

• Electrical and electronic engineers -- $57,000

• Mechanical engineers -- $56,800

• General and operations managers -- $54,000

• Computer and information systems managers -- $50,400

"A look at expected earnings over a lifetime shows the economic benefit of higher education attainment," says Tony Carnevale, who chaired President Clinton’s National Commission for Employment Policy and authored several books, including "America and the New Economy: How New Competitive Standards are Radically Changing American Workplaces."

A person with a doctoral or professional degree, for example, is expected to earn about $3 million over the course of his or her working life while a person without a high school diploma is expected to earn less than $1 million. "Despite an increasing supply of well-educated workers, the college wage premium has nearly doubled since 1980, largely because of the added value of a college education in the new knowledge economy," adds Carnevale.

The Employment Policy Forum concurs, but stresses that these numbers are only averages. Individual earnings depend on many factors inducing geographic location, employer size (average hourly earnings ranged from $15.06 in organizations employing between 1 and 99 workers to $24.09 in those with 2,500 workers or more), industry (workers in goods-producing industries earned $18.46 an hour vs. those in service-producing industries who earned $16.44 an hour) and the worker’s skills and characteristics.

For those of you who are not sure which job works for you, here are some of US highest paying jobs!!!?
I feel I must add a more realistic link for people searching for careers in Canada, specifically BC. The education requirements for many careers differ in Canada from those of the US. For example, electricians require high school graduation to get into certification/degree programs in Canada.

This site will link careers to all post secondary facilities within the province, possibly all of Canada(?), to quickly reference what is required for each chosen field of study. It is also a great resource site for discovering what fields may suit your personality best with links to Myers Briggs type testing. Included with this resource are future prospects and earning potentials for specific job titles. Unfortunately, some careers are lumped together with similar ones and may not have precise information but usually somewhere near reality. This site is maintained and up to date.

It makes a fantastic starting point. I highly recommend following this sort of soul-searching-research with getting out there and interviewing people who work in the career one is interested in pursuing. Most are happy to do so providing you call ahead, make an appointment or as some prefer due to various constraints, e-mail.

Reply:A lot of the educational levels for the positions indicated above are, to put it politely, extremely unrealistic, e.g., a two-year degree for an electrical or mechanical engineer and a high school diploma for a software engineer.

Two possible jobs which one do i go for?

2009-11-16T17:34:00.000-08:00

ok I have two possble jobs that i might be given the the choice to take

I am a volunteer firefighter

job A: the county i vol. in are hiring 4 positions, and if i appy i will probley get one of the jobs, the jobs have been posted for one week and i havent applied yet, its full time making good money for a firefighter

Job B: is for a part time firefighter in another county 30 mins south, making 9 bucks a hour which i have a interview for Jan the 9th

im going to college for a fire science degree and both jobs would work around me schedule at school

the problem is since im a volunteer with the job A county, ive seen and already know alot of the politics and nasty stuff that goes on in there and it scares me away from applying.

and working both jobs i think would not give me any free time,

so do i apply for job a, or not?

and what if i dont get job b? then im out of luck all around

Two possible jobs which one do i go for?
Go for job A, the full-time position. So long as they'll work around your school schedule, it should be OK. Its more $$; Internal politics is normal in any government agency job, whether its the fire department, police, county hospital, jail facility, etc... so if you say no to job A because of internal politics, you'll be disappointed later in job-B to find its just as bad, or worst.
Reply:Both sound boring.
Reply:Not necessarily, you could always reapply for job B. Persistance and determination are good qualities. I think you should choose according to your lifestyle and how you feel. Do you get nervous or tense when thinking about being employed at place A knowing all the politics involved? If so, then maybe you need something different. Just remember that there are politics everywhere in one form or another. You just have to be able to ignore it and do your job.
Reply:Take job A.

The devil you know is better than the one you haven't met.

Arizona Jobs?

2009-11-16T17:33:00.003-08:00

I need a job that:

Starts at or over 9$

Doesnt requier any sort of college deplomas

Is a job a person can be proud of

If anyone who is reading this knows of any jobs that are available or would be good please tell me. It would be greatly appreciated.

I've looked on monster and craigslist and jobbing.com but everything that is offered is nothing that I really want to resurch because it doesnt have detail. It just says send resume if you want a fun job. WTF? Or my favorite is do not call about job, do not email about job and do not fax in questions about job. Well if we cant ask questions how do we know what the job is!?

Thanks!

Arizona Jobs?
Where in AZ are you? Try staffing agencies. Lots of places can get you in over $9, full time if you want. And you dont need a college degree. It wont be the best work, but thats what you get for not having a college degree or some other plan. So good luck!

About two weeks ago, I interviewed for two jobs within a few days of each other. On the day I interviewed for job 2, job 1 made an offer. I put them off for a few days, but after contacting Job 2 to ask for status and not hearing back, I told Job 1 that I accepted their offer.

Friday, Job 2 contacted me, and they want me to work there. It's a better job in the long run, and if I'd been offered both at the same time, I'd take Job 2. But I'm supposed to start work at Job 1 on Monday.

How do I let Job 1 down without burning bridges? I may want to work there in some capacity someday, even if the current position is not the most beneficial right now.

Offered two jobs at once. How to keep from burning bridges?
Job 2 might not be such a good job - you did say you asked for status and they didn't get back to you... perhaps a lack of organization.

But, either way - my advice is to tell Job 1 exactly what happened. Be honest about the opportunity that Job 2 has. And if you can, offer to stay on part-time/weekends (if possible). Be very professional and courteous, and I bet you that if you come back to them in the future, they'll remember your professionalism.

Changing jobs?

2009-11-16T17:33:00.001-08:00

hey guys, i need help here. Does it look bad if a person changes 2 jobs in 3 years? (I just graduated in 2004).

I was a double major in college and have just been trying to find a good career path for myself. I left my first job after a year for a better opportunity. I have been in my current job for about 1.5 years now but this seems like a dead-end job. BTW, I am in the accounting/finance industry.

What do you guys think? Should i change my job? I can potentially spend couple of years in this job, so that instead of switching 2 jobs in 3 years, I will be changing 2 jobs in lets say 4 years. So don't know how much difference that would make. But I'm hesitant to spend a lot of time at my current job since it's dead-end and I pretty much have to start anew (start as entry level) after leaving it.

Changing jobs?
hi

to start with this is my 4th job in three years...and my interviewing experience says, it doesnt matter much if you are good at what you do...and have a valid reason to leave your old job....

switching jobs in a year or two is a good way towards getting better pay scale

think through how you want to shape your career...and good luck with your job search

2 jobs?? Fired?

2009-11-16T17:33:00.000-08:00

im currently in school but i was working two jobs to make extra money during the summer. i started the first job in May and started the second job in June. I decided to quit the first job because the second job was giving me more work hours. i gave two weeks notice. July 27 was my last day. well July 23, i got fired from my second job, which was unexpected otherwise i would keep the first job. well now im looking for a new job and i was wondering should i list both jobs? im thinking i should only list the first because i got fired from the second job. plz help!! thanks

2 jobs?? Fired?
Since both jobs were short, you don't have to list either, but if you want to list any, then go for the first. When they ask why you left, tell them you had an offer for another job but it fell through. It's the closest to the truth.
Reply:It depends on why you were fired. If it was not due to your job performance than list both jobs. On the application, when asked why you are no longer there. Say that you will explain if interviewed.

Hope this helps.
Reply:You should list both jobs. If you leave it off, they will likely find out about it anyway %26amp; it will raise suspicions about why you didn't list it and not hire you. If they find out you left it off after you get hired, you can get fired from that job for cause (dishonesty on the application).

That's a huge bummer that happened to you!
Reply:There is no big public database that lists every job you have ever done except at the social security administration. This information is not available to employers due to privacy concerns. Your credit report does not list every job you ever had and employers do not have access to this information anyway.

The other posters who told you this are wrong.
Reply:Well you have to list both jobs on your resume, because when your new job checks your back ground and sees your prior employment on your credit score sheet and you didn't list that down then that will really count against you. Every job that you work will be on your record. Just explain what happen, just state that you are a full time student that was working two jobs, then second one that you were working was offering you more hours and pay then the first job, then with in 2 weeks of resigning from your first job ( that you were responsible and gave your 2 week notice) you were let go due to downsizing or for unseen reason, that you were not given an explanation of why. Just be honest that will get you further in your job interview then trying to hid something, and I know that you are not but that is how they will look at it. Good luck and just remember, God doesn't close a door without opening a window for the better, just believe in him and trust him, he hasn't let you down so far so why would he now?!!

Americans Will Do Jobs "Americans Won't Do" ?

2009-11-16T17:32:00.000-08:00

RUSH: Let's look at the latest news here on the illegal immigration front and these recent raids at Swift %26amp; Company. "Fewer Hispanic immigrants are being hired to replace meat packing workers arrested at Swift %26amp; Company plants in Grand Island, Nebraska, and Greeley, Colorado, during last week's immigration raid, according to union officials." Fewer Hispanic immigrants are being hired. "Local 22 union president Dan Hoppes said Tuesday that 40 to 50 new workers have been hired at the Grand Island plant since the raids, and he said the lion's share of those people were Caucasian." Now, as you remember, ICE people "arrested 1300 people, mostly Hispanic, at six Swift %26amp; Company plants in the sweep, and some experts say that the raids could lead to a shortage of meat packers and thus higher wages, and thus higher prices for the beef in homes and restaurants.

"Several union officials said that Swift, which has denied knowingly hiring illegal workers and has not been charged, improved its wages and benefits and bonuses before the raids." Now, let's look at this. "Experts say the raids could lead to a shortage of meat packers, higher wages, and higher prices for the beef in homes and restaurants." Now, why is this? Well, a shortage of meat packers. That's right, because the illegal immigrants will only do jobs that Americans won't do, and so when you go in there and raid the place, and you throw out a bunch of illegals, well! You're short of workers because Americans refuse to do it! So you gotta pay more, and the higher wages thus lead to higher prices so you people at home are going to get blamed for this.

Well, you're not going to get blamed but you're gonna face the tell you the responsibility for it. But wait. "Before the raids, roughly 90% of the Greeley plant workers were Hispanic. In Greeley, where Swift is headquartered, union local president Ernie Duran said about 75 new workers have been hired, including about 30 Caucasians, 15 Somali immigrants and seven Hispanic immigrants with the rest being US-born Hispanics, but the raid has not dissuaded Hispanic immigrants from seeking work at the plant." So let me see now if I understand this. Illegals don't exactly take "the jobs Americans won't do;" it seems like illegals take the jobs American companies won't offer to Americans. Now when ICE goes in and removes a percentage of the workforce because they're illegal, then Caucasians get the gig, then Americans get the jobs. Am I interpreting this right? (interruption)

Well, I don't know if it's indelicate or not, it seems to me we hear that Americans won't do these jobs, ergo we need this uneducated, low-wage workforce in order to fill these jobs because Americans just won't do it. When you remove some of the uneducated, low-wage workforce, why, 30 Caucasians were hired, which means they will do the work. They will. I know they hired some Somalis, but they will do the work, but we're told they won't, but they do. So if they'll do the work and aren't doing it, then whose fault is it? Is it maybe they're not being given the jobs or offered the jobs. A companion story here. This is from NebraskaStatePaper.com: "Guess who's hiring Americans who happen to be white? Some of the jobs Americans purportedly won't do have apparently been getting more popular among the white people who are doing them these days but for better money than the illegal immigrants they replaced. Union officials say that Swift %26amp; Company meat packing plants have been hiring more Caucasians since the feds raided their plants last week looking for workers who were in the country illegally.

"Up to 50 new workers have been hired at the Grand Island plant since the raids that snagged 261 workers there. Hoppes told reporters the lion's share of those people were Caucasian." Now, it didn't say white people because that could be subject to classification as a politically incorrect, so they're "Caucasian." Now, this is a story by a guy named Ed Howard at this website. He says: "Here's the interesting thing about the new hires. Union officials also said that Swift began improving wages and benefits and bonuses before the raids, not after. Was this a reflection of the holiday spirit? If so, it also reflected the fact that Swift %26amp; Company knew well in advance the raids were coming and that replacements would be needed if illegal workers were hauled off. The company apparently was just being cautious since it never knowingly hires illegal workers but understands that such things can obviously happen.

"The recent hires at Swift might indicate some Americans will do these jobs for better wages and benefits," and of course who would have thought that? Well, it seems that the meat packing industry knew it. If they knew the raid was coming and they raised wages and benefits and bonuses before the raids, they knew that they were going to have to replace these workers. So Americans will do the work if the pay is above what you will pay your uneducated, low-wage illegal immigrant workforce, and this from the Louisville Courier-Journal: "A married couple who embodied the American dream were sentenced yesterday for hiring illegal immigrants to work at their Jumbo Buffet Restaurant in Jeffersontown, Kentucky. Juan Bin Yeung, 34, received three months of home incarceration, and her husband, Hau Yeung, 34, was sentenced to three months of prison after they had admitted to hiring 13 illegal immigrants between February of '05 and February of '06.

"'These are hard-working people who in many respects embody the American dream,'" talking about the Yeungs, "Chief U.S. District Judge John Heyburn II said before imposing punishment. He opted for a punishment that he said wouldn't destroy the Yeungs' family or business, while sending a message that the nation's immigration laws must be respected. In a similar case pending in Louisville, Heyburn yesterday accepted a guilty plea from Jian Chai Lin, 35, to a charge of knowingly hiring 10 illegal immigrants over the past year to work at his Radcliff restaurant, Golden China Buffet. As part of a plea agreement, Lin forfeited $42,788 from a restaurant bank account." Well, this is a story that talks about all kinds of penalties that are being meted out for the hiring of illegals. They're just trying to pursue the American dream. So the romance, the romancing: "Well, I know they're illegal, but these people, they were immigrants themselves, just trying for the American dream." This is, "Oh, how can we dare pass judgment? Well, just so poor people. They're just trying to do the right thing, and none of us ever succeed all the time in doing the right thing so how can we hold them accountable?" and so begins the snowball. Here is John in Logan, Utah. John, welcome to the EIB Network.

CALLER: Hey, mega dittos, Rush.

RUSH: Thank you, sir.

CALLER: From a native Sacramentan. I'm in Logan. We are about five minutes from one of the plants that was -- that was raided, and a couple things. Add to that list of newspaper articles, one from the Rocky Mountain News, where apparently there are lines of people waiting to get these jobs and all of them of course aware that their status is going to be in question, so I'm assuming these people are citizens. The interesting thing of course is I'm waiting to see articles like this because I've never bought the tripe that only illegal immigrants will do this kind of labor, so it was posed as though these people are kind of like cannibals, coming in to clean up afterward and then, you know, live off the dead bodies --

RUSH: Vultures, yeah, vultures.

CALLER: Yeah, exactly.

RUSH: Cannibals eat live people. Vultures wait for you to die.

CALLER: Well, one of the guys was a roommate of one of the illegals that was sent off, and he was left with all of his goods in his apartment; he took his animals and gave them to people that could take care of them. So it was really kind of an interesting article. But there are lines of people. Now, I don't know if you saw this, here in Logan, the newspaper that there are 16 indictments that have come down, all related to various forms of fraud and --

RUSH: Oh, come on.

CALLER: -- identity.

RUSH: This is excessive! We're talking about human beings here.

CALLER: I know.

RUSH: They're called citizens and they're human beings, and everybody has to eat.

CALLER: I know, I know, and it's really sad, and one of the editorials led off in our local newspaper saying this was appalling. "We are not first and foremost a country founded upon laws. We are a country founded on compassion," and so I am obviously out of line.

RUSH: (Laughing.) Yes, you are, because you cold-hearted extremist SOB you. Here you -- (laughing.)

CALLER: (Laughing.) And I appreciate you giving voice to the things that I have always felt and believed. So thank you, Rush.

RUSH: Thank you. I'm glad you called. I appreciate that. Thanks very much. Americans will do the work, but I there's always something left out of that equation. The jobs Americans no longer will do, the jobs Americans refuse to do -- at the wages being paid to an uneducated workforce here illegally. That's what's left out.

Americans Will Do Jobs "Americans Won't Do" ?
Americans always have and always WILL do any d@mn job an illegal invaders will do and do it BETTER with a higher quality. Americans just can't live off third world wages. American citizens deserve better than that. We have worked our way OUT of third world wages and we should NOT be forced to succumb to those low wages because of people who are in our country I L L E G A L L Y. ILLEGAL invaders should NOT even be in our country to even BE a competitor for those jobs. PERIOD.

Reply:Fantastic post...wow...I heard part of this on the radio today, but not all. Thanks.

I live about 45 minutes from Hyrum, Utah and if you want to be sick with disgust, read the Odgen newspaper. All we have heard and seen through the media are the illegals families crying and angry....wanting to know "who is going to take care of my five children now?"

My son, mentally handicapped, has had his services severely cut back for lack of funding....want to guess where his (and the other handicapped individual's) money has been funneled to? The social services supporting illegals....they get the money.

It is estimated that 10% of Utah is illegal. It won't be long before chaos breaks out here with the gangs growing like weeds....

Reply:Nice story, but next time just hit the main points--no wait,scratch that--Tell complete stories to save our conservative counterparts the time of looking it up for themselves.

As far as the Swift raising wages--I do think they smelled what was cooking and knew that it was gonna eventually happen, but what did they really risk? With the help of Reagan/Bush1/ and Clinton's worst gift to us libs--NAFTA--Union wages for the meat packaging industry have shrunk from a respectable wage to baseline poverty--Swift giving a small chunk back probably had more to do with maintaing employment universally than for a bunch of immigrant/illegals.

WHERE'S THE LEGAL RECOURSE FOR EMPLOYERS WHO HIRE ILLEGALS?

Who gives a hoot if they had illegal documents or whatever it does not justify the lack of a legal recourse for those who choose to hire them in any scenario. They prosecute the Mom and Pop business owners--but why not the mega-conglomerate's? If you get a chance do some searching for stories about the way Haliburton/KBR voraciously exploited illegals who were hired to clean up Katrina.

Jobs after college and what position?

2009-11-13T20:32:00.003-08:00

Hi

I want to know where do people work when they get their college degree.

Like say each year there are thousands of accounting, engineering, etc. graduates. Do they find/fill accounting and engineering jobs in their major field.

What if say the jobs are not available for all the accounting graduate. For example, say there are 10,000 accounting graduates each year. and when you look for accounting jobs. there are 6,000 accounting jobs available. So 4,000 accounting graduates won't find jobs in their field. What do those 4,000 graduates do?

Do they work somewhere outside their fields?

Basically supply and demand theory. More accounting graduates, but less accounting jobs available. Where are the rest of the accounting graduates suppose to find jobs if they can't find jobs in their field?

Should they go back to college and get another degree or just find any job for now ?

(not picking on accounting majors, just using them as example.)

thanks

Jobs after college and what position?
Well, that's not what happens right away; but in the long-run, that is what will happen. At the end of the day, society needs accountants; the questions is simply how many. So, let's say that the U.S. needs 300,000 accountants. Now, let's say that 50,000 of those accountants are needed in New York.

New York has more than 8,000 accounting graduates per year. Is there a shortage? No! That's because there are already people working in the accounting profession, and most of those 50,000 positions are filled. But some will be open from time-to-time. Let's assume that in each particular year, 2% of the openings will be available for new graduates. That's 1,000 openings in the accounting profession for 8,000 graduates to fight over.

Here is what will happen; each graduate will have serveral interviews, and of the ones that are not "weeded" out of the selection process, let's say 4,000 will now have to bargain for a competative salary. In this case, they can expect a very low salary, since the market is saturated with accountants in New York. Now, some lucky graduates will get to be part of the 1,000 people who get a job; but we don't care about them anymore.

We are now concerned with what will happen to the remaining 3,000 people who were qualified, but still didn't get the job. Well, ask yourself what you would do in such a situation. You would determine a cost-benefit analysis of relocation versus re-specialization. Do you relocate to lets say Chicago where there are 50 ads trying to give as much incentive to people to come to Chicago for accounting; or will you take up the costs of re-specializing in some other field?

That will obviously depend on your situation. Perhaps you were interested in Tax, but only Auditing jobs are available in New York. It is worth it for you to respecialize, or to just move to a different location to find employment. In the end, society will have as many accountants as it needs in the positions it needs them to be. And that will go for any profession. These remaining accountants may end up teaching at a college/university, giving tax training programs, becoming state auditors (a job that nobody would otherwise do); or maybe drive a taxi cab or something.

The point is, that they will be taking advantage of thier next best alternative, which is the tool that economics has built into effeciency. If these people choose to not relocate, and rather respecialize into something completely different, then it must be the case that they are recieving a higher benefit from this alternative than they normally would recieve from accounting jobs in the state of the local economy at that particular point in time. When the economy changes, maybe it will become beneficial for some people to go back to accounting. This is why, in professions like accounting; individuals usually do accounting related work if they cannot fit into their exact specialty; and then wait for the economy to adjust.

The same goes for engineers, lawyers, doctors, etc. When people cannot afford them, jobs close, but they must remain in touch with the profession to be able to re-enter quickly when the economy improves.

I hope this was helpful, Best of Luck!

Job Disenchantment: No interest in jobs that I've previously taken;?

2009-11-13T20:32:00.001-08:00

I have jumped from job to job to job, looking for a right fit. I tried real estate which I did lousy at and found that my social skills stank (I got anxiety attacks when told to cold-call); I hated office work, which bored the hell out of me; and security (another anxiety filled job; which I did well, but disliked, and finally to the end of it nearly went psychotic, thinking there were attackers in every dark corner). I'm now hunting for a job I have some satisfaction out of and am planning on turning a hobby I have (photography) into a potential career. How do I get employed in that career with the track record that I have of job-hopping. Will the fact that I do photography on my off-hours help my case? Will my passion for photography help my cause in getting employed so that my potential employers overlook the prior track record of jobs I hated?

When our daughter was a baby, a photographer came to our home. He was selling packages that every 2 or 3 months he would come to our home and take professional photos of our baby for the first year. Then he would come every six months for the next four years. I don't remember the cost (it was over 26 years ago) but what a neat idea that was.

Walmart has a picture taking studio. See if they need photographers while you get your business going. Places like Lifetouch take the pictures of students at schools. You could see if any of that type of company needs photographers (I saw an ad for someone needing one the other day) while you get your business going, also.

"Right Fit" is recruiter-ease for the PERFECT or exact fit of a candidate to the job requirements in question.

The problem is, no person or job perfectly fits. Therefore, everybody gets laid off in the end. Report It

What are jobs that Americans won't do?

2009-11-13T20:32:00.000-08:00

will somebody please tell me what are jobs that Americans won't do. I currently work in a job that an Illegal Immigrant probably would not do. Even the best job a person could possibly find, is going to have it's downside. Any job sucks. If you do a job for someone else, the other person benifits more than the worker does, that is why it is called a job. I think the jobs that the illegals refer to are jobs that most people would rather not do, but would do if he/she had to support the family. I don't know of any job that I have never seen an American do. Also, in the statement "jobs that americans won't do" are legal immigrants included? I have seen LEGAL mexicans do crummy jobs such as digging ditches, picking veggies, washing cars, whatever. That "jobs Americans won't do" is a bunch of crap and I am tired of hearing that immature, inconsiderate line of crap. Just because you see stupid stuff on TV like American Idol, don't assume that all of us are stupid. Get the HELL OUT.

What are jobs that Americans won't do?
There are none. If they really need a job and the government will no longer just give them money they will work.
Reply:be in the field picking grape or other vegetable....that they won't do...
Reply:I went and checked out Pancha's link. Yea, that's probably a job that most Americans wont do. lol
Reply:Jobs for less than minimum wage, no benefits, no taxes. That's why the illegals get hired.

Why pay someone minimum wage when you can pay someone less. Why hire someone who will complain is something is not right when you can hire someone you can fire on a whim. Why pay unemployment.

Our government needs to concentrate less on the illegals ant more on the employers who illegally hire them.

If they can't get jobs, they will go home.
Reply:it's not that Americans won't do them, it's that Americans won't do them for as little money as immigrants-when they can collect unemployment and get the same amount.
Reply:find me an american that will do the back breaking work of picking lettuce for almost no pay. you can't. it's not that they do jobs americans won't do, they do them at wages americans won't.
Reply:I don't know of any.
Reply:OK, this will be boring for those looking for a "GET OUT OF MY COUNTRY" answer...

1. Because China can manufacture products so cheaply, textile companies hire illegals who will work for way less so the product can be competitively priced. I'm assuming if the company hired legal workers, all the costs they would have to pay for a higher salary as well as benefits and taxes would be passed onto the consumer via price increases.

2. Regarding produce picking...I believe we Americans don't want to and won't do those jobs even if we have no other income. If we did, wouldn't you think all the people displaced and unemployed by Hurricane Katrina would be taking up all those jobs? I know when I got out of college I worked an overnight shift at a fastfood restaurand and I hated it! But it pushed me to find a better job in record time! We have far too many unemployed people for anyone to say that American's will do these heavy labor jobs. The problem is, because these people are "too good" to start at the bottom, someone has to pick the crops so we turn to the illegals. So not only do we have to pay for domestic costs for illegals (hospital care etc) we have to pay unemployment and welfare to those who could work, but just choose not to because it's not the job they "want". Insanity!
Reply:Win wars?

Though I must admit you're great at pretending you did.
Reply:I was looking for a question...But I guess I found rage , anger and own expression about this issue! Just because you work in a crappy environment doesn't make you part of the sample population. I don't hold any opinion about legalizing the illegal, but sure do know that we Americans likes to be lazy. No wonder we go through McDonald's drive through 3 times a day and complain if they forget to super-size our fries.

LOL...I would like to invent a machine which will help us fart! Like lifting your left and then expanding the butt chicks...If I can get a prototype...I will outsource the manufacturing to China....and then sell it to U'll!

BTW...Vote next time smartly...so that we don't invade others depending on lies. And then don't loose our future work force of this country on the front line of war. Big daddy is just trying to cover his butt and legalize the illegals so that he can collect tax and not be blamed for ruining this country's future!
Reply:the claim isn't that no americans will do the jobs, but that not enough americans will do them, so there are unfilled jobs in agriculture, construction, and cleaning industries. there are jobs where the pay and benefits just aren't good enough to draw american workers in (who could be getting more pay with benefits doing telemarketing.) but for someone in mexico, that lousy job looks enticing, because their economy is struggling.

illegal immigrants often work overtime without extra pay, or work in dangerous conditions without health insurance. even if americans were willing to do that, employers wouldn't dare treat american citizens that way, but they can get away with treating illegal immigrants illegally, because they know they won't want to risk going to the police.
Reply:Americans generally are unwilling to much of the low paid agricultural work that needs to be done by hand 'cos no-ones invented a device to do it yet. And the reason you see legal immigrants doing some of this work is because unlike most Americans, they aren't spoiled to the point they feel a sense of entitlement to a certain standard of living.

I think everyone here (legal or not) should have to take the citizenship exam, and if you fail, even if you were born here, you get traded with someone who passed and wants in from somewhere else! Just kidding, who would build my cars, fix my TV, do my banking, build my houses, work in my hospital...(LOL)
Reply:The president of the United States, and a large part of the Senate.
Reply:Well said! I agree with you.
Reply:The jobs that us mexicans do!
Reply:All these jobs are done by Americans in states with few illegal immigrants. And then of course there are the LEGAL immigrants who do the jobs too.

Pancha, explain your answer, please. Are you saying that servicing those poor lonely women is something only illegals would do? I'm not quite sure who is being insulted there.
Reply:I've never met an American Queen or King.
Reply:There are no jobs that Americans won't do for a fair wage.

DAR-I am saying that that is a job Americans won't do.I don't know if an illegal would hit that or not,I hope not.
Reply:Sounds to me like a little sour grapes going on here? What do you mean "jobs that Americans won't do"? Is there a list somewhere? You will do whatever it takes to survive, American, Hispanic, Asian ....whomever. Americans just like having a scapegoat for their own laziness. I am an American and proud to be one, but I do not understand our new "It's not my fault" generation. If you don't like your job, get an education and get a better job. Don't tell me you can't afford it, I was a single mom raising 4 kids on my own with little help and I went back to college in my 30's. It wasn't easy, but it worked and so did I. If you are not part of the solution you are part of the problem.
Reply:I think that every time I see people working out in the very hot and very cold i always see hispanics. The americans are only bossing them around. Any job that is out side for 9 hours a day and six days a week is what you will not see an american do.

Jobs and careers?
Have you tried to go to your doctor and have him certify you as disabled or a certain percentage of disability? If you can get that you can try to enroll in a program specifically run to train either disabled folks or disabled veterans who can only work with limitations. They match you up with what you can perform and train you. It is free of charge if you qualify. Think about talking to your doctor and explaining it's hard for you to find work because you can only do so much. Tell him that the jobs you are qualified for can risk further injury to your back. Ask him if they have a Disabled Veterans Outreach Program available in your area, or something similar to it.. I'm sorry I couldn't be of much help. Take care and don't give up, things will come your way! Here's the website for you to look over for more info on it.
Reply:Hi, Visit http://www.googleadvertise.com

They have a good job offers for you.
Reply:What comes to my mind regarding your situation, is what do you really want to do...career wisw? That may not be an easy question to answer, right away.

When you start to concentrate on a certain position you like, begin to edit and change your resume so you appear qualified and at least start to get job interviews. There are many resume writers on the web that could make you look real good. But you'll have to INVEST a few dollars on yourself.

Forget about Wendy's and BK shoot for something better! There are tons of jobs out there. Don't think that there are not.

Also go to a staffing agency, they can help place you into a job, especially warehouse. I see their ads in newspapers all the time. Hope this helps. Gary

Handling Two Jobs at once?

2009-11-13T20:31:00.002-08:00

Hi everyone. Here's my situation with employment that I need your advice on. I was offered a job #1 over a month and a half ago. It's a fitness center that hasn't even opened yet. The opening date is this Friday. I needed money really bad so while I patiently waited for job #1, I got a second job, job #2. These are both part time jobs. Well Job #2 has been going great, I know i'll like it better than Job #1, and it's more in line with what I want to do in life. The problem is that Job #2 has given me a set schedule for the month of May, but job #1 is REQUIRING me to go to their fitness center opening night this thursday. But I work at job #2 that night. I would like to keep both jobs, even though I like job #2, but I'm afraid of losing job #1 if I tell my boss at that job about my other part time job. I asked my boss at job #2 if I could have the night off and she said to ask my co-worker to switch but he can't. So i'm really in a pickle. How should I handle this situation? Thanks!

Handling Two Jobs at once?
You like job #2. Don't jeopardize it.

Job #1 took too long and lost out on their chance of having you as an employee. Get a replacement job for job #1.
Reply:Be honest with job #1 and tell them you took another job while waiting for them and that you have to work at job #2 that night. If you really like job #2 then you have to risk losing job #1, you can always replace it with something else.

Did they really expect you to wait 6 weeks and do nothing? Probably not realistic.
Reply:You like Job #2 and can afford to keep just one PT job?

Tell Job #1 that you have to work - it really is unrealistic of them to expect you to have done nothing for 6 weeks!

If Job #1 falls through, find something else!

Best of luck!
