These aren't the replies I expected and thought I would get flamed badly but thanks for chiming in. I've never quit a job without another lined up so this is new to me. I went to grad school after working for several years prior so this is my fourth job. I'm used to living in diverse, large...
I live in a small city that I ended up in after graduate school. I could've rejected this offer and continued looking in my city of choice, but what's done is done. I thought I could find something back home across the country while working in this job but I realized that it's nearly impossible...
I drove my car to Toronto and got a $60 parking ticket. I'm back in the US and will probably never be in Canada again or for a really long time. By then, I probably will not have my current car. What happens if you don't pay an out of the country parking ticket? I'm googling and reading up on it...
I go to a local barbershop that isn't busy much or I learned to go during the right times after going there for months. I go there and the barber is just lounging around with no customer but his friend is there. You go in to get a haircut and just sit in the waiting area. Their conversation...
It was certainly F'ed up what he said. Trump will still remain top of the Republican ticket but won't win. Hope this humbles his loud mouth and gets humiliated in the process.
I'm almost sure this is why I'm not getting any interviews. The job hops were towards making an industry switch and one position was even a contract role. However, I still look like I switch jobs almost every year. Should I use years only on my resume or is that worse? Any other ideas to reduce...
and I'm not sure what's causing it. Can someone review my resume and help me figure out why I can't get any interviews? I will PM the link due to privacy reasons.
Just wondering because I used the phone in one of the conference rooms to call someone. Nothing serious and it was telling someone about trying to interview for another job.
Do you guys think a month's notice is necessary? The guy who owns the house told me that they would be moving in only a few days ago and they're here already so I didn't have an opportunity to look for another place or anything
The house is a 3 bedroom, all on the 2nd floor. I've been renting a room for the past 4 months and it was just me and the owner. I really dislike living with more than 1 other person and like privacy. He told me that his relatives will be moving into the other room and it's an entire family with...
Plus there seems to be a $25 activation fee + $10 SIM card along with purchasing the $40 monthly data plan. I'm very happy right now with another mobile carrier so I'm probably going to pass.
I've been in the market for a new or used phone, and I don't mind older models released a couple of years ago. I saw the S4 in my local cell phone store and was interested in it along with the S5. The Samsung Note is too large for me.
I am well aware of the required sponsorship, but I've seen this first hand and it appears pretty easy to get one as long as they don't have poor English skills. Many companies hire in large numbers ("incoming classes") and whether you are an international or not has 0 bearing. With the...
Forget the anchor babies which is a problem in itself, but how about the thousands of international students mainly from China and India who come here every year? Majority of them come at the Master's graduate level because many Master's programs are cash cow programs for the universities. Most...
For the competitive and popular jobs at desirable companies, I really think you need some kind of connection to actually get the offer. I mean you might get the interview by applying online but it's super competitive so you'll most likely get rejected through the process and someone with a...
So if I pull into a gas station to pump gas, as long as I have a baby, I can leave the doors wide open and stand around to block others from exiting as long as I was there first right? Now I see
Using the passenger/driver side example is completely wrong as there's a lot of obstruction in between. But if I'm in the back seat and there's some reason why I should exit the other side, I always do. Most normal people do as well.
The kid was like 6 - 8 years old.
So let me ask you, if someone cares so much about others being considerate, but how come it doesn't apply to that person? She could've been considerate and have enough awareness of the parking lot situation to use the other side.
The kid was between 6-8
No idea about the car seat but she couldn't have the kid get out on the other side? Why not? They were sort of standing there afterwards with the doors open so I had no idea what they were waiting for. I thought they were reserving the empty spot for someone else but I...
I was at a jam-packed parking lot and spent about 15 minutes circling back and forth for a spot. I finally found one and a lady was unloading her kid from the back seat (not an infant so the child can get out and walk just fine). She was at the end of a row so there's all this space that she can...
I'm carrying balance on my credit card (a few thousand+) that I'm paying down now and I consider myself a very financially frugal person. I experienced a job loss which lasted over a year and I support my mom's living expenses as well so that put me in a bind when all of my savings ran out. I...
Happened recently but the cashier was trying to rip me off. It happened in NYC (duh?) and these $1 pizza places must get a lot of drunk people late at night. I ordered 1 slice of pizza which was $1 and gave him a $20. The scummy Indian guy behind the counter looks at me while he counts the money...
I have a ton of debt that I want to pay down and I'm in a new job that is cushy but low paying. I work 9-5 and have motivation to try to earn more money outside of it since I don't travel for work and no longer have outside time commitments like in the past.
The only things I can think of...
I interviewed for a corporate job at a bank but we met at a restaurant to get lunch as it was the only time slot the hiring manager had available during his busy week. We spent about an hour there, and it ended up just me asking him a bunch of questions and him spending most of the time...
