2 weeks observe at a unpaid mission?
The job I currently have is proletarian and I'm a keyholder position (someone who opens and closes the store). I do like the company but my manager totally take advantage of me by have me close every single weekend night and they get extremely upset if I request one weekend darkness off (both of them are married and claim the only time they see their husbands is on the weekend). They also do not know that I just want a couple shifts a week bc I'm in institution right now. School is my main focus and I cannot be working 35 hours a week. Since I've be fed up I went out and be hired at another job which I hope to start soon. Is it necessary to confer my two weeks notice at the old charge?

Well now I want to call the place. Because my friend that I be working for told me she cant maybe hire me back. I necessitate to know if that is true or what. When I quit they told me if I wanted rear to ask her. Well since then my friend that hired me says other things. So very soon I really want the true answer if they can hire me back. this is it should I call that organization or what thanks

26 weeks of Collectable Unemployment... but what if.?
If I call MARVIN and don't "claim" a couple of weeks, because I received monies from my previous employer (a paycheck owed, plus my accrued personal time stale pay) will that "extend" my weeks on out by two weeks, as opposed to "losing" those two weeks? Does anyone know? I read the brochure, but I'm still confused.


28 near no adjectives, What should I do?
Hi all, Ok I am 28 and I have lost everything from the love of my life span (over a year ago) to my license. No it was not drugs just wrong choices and believing within others. So I am just about 28 next to nothing going for myself. I was thinking military (navy or air-force) but even later I would rather be a officer joining. Now I have no college so that would run 4 years to do (time is short). I made wrong decisions and trusted others when I tried to help beside their company's. Now I have moved back home beside nothing. So any Ideas. Reason why I was thinking military is because what else is for me?I would approaching to do Humanitarian work across seas but I see you have to own at least 2 years of college if you want to get salaried for it. I really don't have anyone to help so...


2nd Interview at Michaels?
So the first interview went good, I get the impression that she liked me since she said she like my responses and personality.

Of course I have an idea that it's a good thing that she asked me contained by for a second interview, but I'm just sort of worried, is it going to be the same point as the first? What are they going to ask? Ah, anyone who can enlighten me on this or how 2nd interviews typically mean or work would give support to lots.

4' 11...too short to get hold of a situation?
I've never had a real chore before (All the jobs I've have were/are at my school in college)...I own an interview on Friday at a real estate place as a receptionists. The area is really nice (mostly rich people) I can't back but to think negative that I'm not going to obtain the job because I'm too short. I'm 22, I'm short and slim. People tell me that I look close to a kid. Do you think I have a break of getting the job.

5 minute interview.?
I just came posterior from an interview at century 21 real estate for a receptionists position. The interview lasted roughly 5 minutes I think. She really did not ask me any real interview question. She just went over my resume and said, so you budge to (school's name) then she said you want to be a psychologist/psychiatrist. I said a Psychologist. she asked what grad school I be looking to go to I said that I don't know yet, I'm still looking and that I be thinking about taking a year off. she asked if I have any questions and I just said I considered necessary to know what the position was for. When I really meant, what are the duties of the mission. anyway she said it's a receptionist position and she then told me what I would be responsible for. She asked me if I was interested. I said yes.. and said that I have applied at another location, which is where she got my resume from.. She consequently asked how much was I looking the get remunerated. I told her a minimum of 12 dollars. She said that I seem a little shy and I a moment ago smiled because I didn't want her to know I was nervous or speak something stupid. She asked if I was good near computer and I said yes..she said that was a plus.She asked me again if I had any question I said no. Then she said that's it. and confirmed my phone # and said "I'll let you know. It probably didn't play out exactly like this because Ieft little mechanical things out...at one point there was an awkward silence (when she said I be shy) but as I said it was a "real" interview, like what I be expecting. Anyways...do you think the interview went desperate... Thanks...I just really want this job...
