Will a low GPA kill my chances of getting a government job?
asked:
I’ve been in the workforce for 10 years after college but graduated with a sub-3.0 GPA. Now I’m applying for a mid-level federal government job and I have to provide my GPA. Will my grades severely hurt my chances of even being considered? I’m debating whether to address it in my cover letter (which could draw unnecessary attention to it) or just ignore it and focus on my work history and strengths.

What is the best part of Tampa for empty nesters?
Terry asked:
We are thinking about a move from a similar sized city in the mid south. Where is the best location in Greater Tampa where we can live within walking distance to markets, shopping, etc. Ideally, we want to rent an apartment just down the block, in front/behind a shopping area. Later, as the jobs shake out, we want a small condo with the same convienent features. Please offer any advice.

what are the best mid-atlantic engineering colleges?
happyface asked:
I am from Pennsylvania and need some advices and suggestions on good engineering colleges to go. It would be nice to know how much it costs approximately. Also, if anyone that is in the engineering field could tell me about the possible disadvantages of women in this field (is physical strength important? or do men have more creditability when looking for jobs?)

what are your opinions on **** jobs?
asked:
I’m 19, and IF I ever did get one (which I probably won’t) it wouldn’t be until I’m in my mid twenties and I’ve thought about it for a while. But what are your opinions on them? Not HUGE ones, but a natural looking C or D. I’m 5’6 and 145 lbs and I have a big butt, so they would be proportional.

Mid twenties Snowboarder considering moving to Vancouver? ?
hpeccorini asked:
Considering moving to Vancouver from Lake Tahoe, Ca. I am looking for the blend of City life (for higher paying jobs) and the mountains (close snowboarding). Is there any region in Vancouver that anyone recommends? I am looking for a younger area for people in 20′s -30′s. Is there many disadvantages to living in Vancouver? I am originally from San Francisco so homeless and drug addicts not a big issue. Any snowboarders out there help me possibly get ideas of where to live? or even where to start looking?

Is losing my teaching job mid year the career ender it seems like right now?
Jean asked:
I was an asst Pre K teacher with a masters degree, a career changer. This was my first job after many yrs as at-home mom. As a brand new teacher — with all the creativity and enthusiasm that implies — I came into job with many Qs re: how things were done at school + ideas to share. From the start =terrible chemistry with head teacher. She would yell at me in front of the kids and cut me off as soon as I tried to say anything & walk away= very frustrating. She had 25 yrs at school (whole career) and was mentored by owner (=VERY close. I didn’t understand politics until later.) I assumed I had been hired because I brought a different educational perspective and life experience to the team, so it took a little while to figure out that that was exactly where head teacher’s problems with me lay. Over time, as I was closed out of all curricular decisions by team, so I curtailed most of my questions and suggestions. (It was more important to insure a peaceful classroom environment for the kids.) I found that I could create my own place in the classroom, while compliantly supporting my teammates, by concentrating on knowing each child well as a person and a learner, and designing hands on experiences that could lead to meaningful connections across curricular domains. (This wasn’t part of school philosophy and no one in our team did this.) While the children’s enthusiasm suggested that I was providing a needed element to the classroom, I recognized that this could be “trouble” [too much attention on me] and always tried to deflect parents’ attention from myself and refer them back to the team.)
I think head probably just made owner’s life so miserable with her frequent complaining about me that she finally decided to get rid of me because she couldn’t take it any more! As I mentioned, she hired head right out of school years ago; she had mentored and personally trained her in her own vision of school philosophy; Head teacher had babysat for owner’s kids when they were babies and has been very involved with her family. I think that everything that I defined me as a person and progressive teacher created tremendous anxiety in head. Owner probably spent little time weighing her responsibility to me as a new hire against her feelings and responsibility for head. I thought I was going to job review — I thought: prob no contract for next year but not fired immediately, no good bye to kids or colleagues! (They said “Bad fit” but nothing I had done. Plus, School policy=they don’t give references –just employment dates.) Parents were shocked and upset — they sent me some great letters of recommendation but is that enough? I’m glad I’m out of that school (but still heartbroken re: kids.) At job interviews, I’m not getting anywhere. HELP!! What a blight on resume! How do I get past this? I love teaching !
