I am a pre/mid-teen and need to start making money! What are some good jobs that make money for people my age?
If a man has a mid-life crisis, how long does this usually last?
My dad is going through this, I’m wondering if it goes away in a few years or will he always act this way? He left my mom, got a tattoo, ear piercing, took his girlfriend to Jamaica (he never took me or my mom anywhere), and he can’t stay at a job more than a few months. I was just wondering what is next?
Please answer. need good advice.been offered 2 jobs?
Hi there everyone,
I am a graduate who applied for a million and one jobs. Since the graduate jobs seemed so competitive, I decided to apply for recruitment consultant jobs because they seemed to be advertised a fair amount. I was thrilled to be offered a 3 month trial contract at a place about 20 miles away (not ideal but at least it would pay the bills!!) I am supposed to start tomorrow. (Also, they said they have had loads of people start and **** it so I had to convince them I only wanted to do recruitment and that I had only applied for recruitment jobs oooops white lie!)
On Friday I got the shock of my life to find out I have been offered a job that thousands of people went for!! It’s a graduate merchandising job with a HUGE company. They need to check my references but they have offered me the job and they said the start date is mid to end november.
So now I am in a predicament. My mum is saying it’s dog eat dog and to start the recruitment training tomorrow…and basicaly lie to them. But I would find it hard to throw myself into something (going round to meet the clients, having a big welcome from the lovely staff there, learning a new industry) when I am probably going to be leaving in like…3/4 weeks. I don’t wanna tell them the exact truth (that I have found a better job, not in recruitment) because… my references might not be amazing and it might fall through or somthing, or I might **** merchandising and I want to keep the recruitment people sweet. So my options are…
1)Start the job and quit mid to end november. I don’t wanna do this really.
2)Tell them I failed a couple of my exams and that I can’t start till end of november as I have to resit? (maybe they might agree to that??). At least by then I will definately know if I like the merchandising job.
3) Tell them I DO have a graduate internship…but maybe say it is a management one that is only a few weeks? Basically put it off long enough to know if I am definately into this merchandising job?
I could find some temp work in the meantime to keep myself going (and that’s weekly pay which is better as I don’t have a penny!!)
Help!
What are some Non-Profit jobs out there? I am looking to make a career change?
I have been told by a smart individual that seemed to peg me correctly, that I do want a Management job (even though I had said I was beginning to dislike “business” type jobs), BUT that it should be in a non-profit organization, and that it should be small to mid-size. He said that I would prefer working in an “Apolitical” enviornment. ANY IDEAS ANYONE?????????????????????????????????????????
For people in their mid to late 20’s, how has being laid off affected you?
I’m curious how being forced to file for unemployment or taking less-than-desirable jobs has changed you. Or did you find a replacement job fairly quickly? Also, what are you doing to make it through this? I am worried about losing my job and know paying down my student debt and credit cards would be a lot more difficult.
