Ok so when we were all hired we were fed the same shpeel that we are going to be managers, well the thing is they told every member of our team the same thing in private, so we went along with it like idiots and worked like slaves…well a year later when things were just bad…we all figured out that this is what they had told everyone on our team behind closed doors…so now we have this new girl…who we think was told the same thing by the managers….she is always in the managers office…and DELEGATES work to us….this girl has no experience or training at any of our desks..we all work with the market and our environment is very stressfull and deadline oriented but this chick walks around like shes the boss…all she does is listen to her ipod, study, go on the internet, and text all day if she dosent have work to do…im surprised that she had her ipod pulled out in front of my main boss and told her “this is just my music” so anyway
Don’t u guys think that pump and dump is the sickest management style?
Also I don’t think this girl has any clue that there is no assistant manager position open?
The company has lost billions, the position was eliminated when my current boss moved up to being a manager, and they are laying off and this chick is thinking of moving up?

I have tried so many work at home jobs and never made anything. I know I am so sick of my job and I hate being told when I can go to the bathroom and when I can take days off. I would really love to be my own boss please help.

I currently work as an Admissions/Marketing Coordinator in a nursing home. I was out on the internet looking at different jobs, thinking one day I would change my current field. On a whim, I submitted a resume for a position I found to be interesting. Without my knowledge, the HR department of the place I applied I to called my current job for a reference, all prior to even calling me with interest. Well, my boss called me into the office and questioned me about it. Needless to say I was caught of guard, but assured her I was not trying to leave the organization. At no point had I submitted a resignation. This morning I was called into her office and informed that my position had been filled and I was expected to begin training this person next week. Is it legal to hire someone into my position although I have not submitted a resignation or been terminated? What legal rights do I have????

My boyfriend and his best friend just started an internet marketing company and they have been hiring sales reps from accrossed the country. About a month ago, my man told me that they had hired his ex wife (they were together for 10 years, he adopted her 2 kids, and they’ve only been divorced for 2 years). This meant that she would be spending quite a bit of time with my fiance’ during training (until she would be sent out into the field). When he told me this, I got very upset and tried to explain to him why it was wrong if he was trying to start a new life with me (I just found out I’m pregnant… too). He still doesn’t seem to understand what’s wrong with it. Help!!!!
Update….. she ended up saying that it wasn’t enough money and did not take the job… but I’m still upset because he still doesn’t ‘get it’ so to speak. He does not ‘agree’ with me that it’s messed up… do you think it’s messed up???
The reason it upsets me is because 1) I think that if he was ready to move on he would be closing the door to his past and focusing on the future (me) – with the exception of his kids… as far as I’m concerned those kids should be the only line of communication between them (the kids are 15 and 17 years old 2) He didn’t even think about how that would make me feel (or ask me) before he and his friend decided to hire her 3) She cheated on him with her BOSS so obviously she has a history of going after management!!!!!
Well…. I don’t think that he still wants her but she has sent him e-mails over the past year that have really crossed the line…. I just don’t think I could ever feel comfortable with her around. She’s his past… and having her there… lurking in the shadows…. would be too much to handle. That’s just how I feel.
We are getting married on August 23rd.

So, I’m 19 *soon to be 20*, graduated high school almost 2 years ago, and, I’m still torn about what to do with myself. When I graduated I had no direction, absolutely no direction lol. I tried my hands at all kinds of things, but ended up quitting. Not out of depression or "oh I suck at this blah blah blah", but just because I get bored. I’m the type of person that gets very bored and restless if I don’t have something to do……..except when I was working at my last job, and when I play my music.

My last job was awesome, pretty much was with an internet marketing/consulting/advertising companies. 2 of them at once in fact (working with my direct boss, and then helping him out with his biggest account as pretty much the "assist consultant" or "secondary consultant"). It wasn’t your typical white collar, desk-jockey, type job. That type of job, where I’m just pushin paper/pencil would kill me, I’m way to restless. But with this past job, I got to be creative, I got to use my ideas, I got to edit/make videos, websites, pictures, etc. And I got my training for free. BUT, unfortunately, due to the economy, the business has taken a hit. Boss said he can’t afford to pay me right now, and didn’t want to have me working for free lol, but that I’d most likely be able to come back in a couple months. So, more like laid-off than fired.

Now on to my music. I play flamenco guitar. I play everyday and I can honestly say that it’s the one and only thing that truly makes me happy. It’s my release. I would absolutely LOVE to make a career out of it, but it’s music, much easier said than done. And considering it’s also flamenco, considering most people probably think about the bird (flamingo) when they see the word, it’s not exactly all that main-stream.

Lately I’ve been very lost, very very lost. I’ve tried my hand at a few things, and quit all of them. College……..psh, yea right. I’m not lazy, not lazy at all, trust me, the responsibility of my last job was enormous. It’s just, college isn’t right for everybody, some people just aren’t meant to go, and I happen to be one of those people. What can I say? I tried, only lasted a year then I decided that I couldn’t keep doing it. And some more things here and there I don’t want to elaborate on, and make this any longer than it already is.

Anyway, on to my question (sorry for rambling), when it comes down to it, the only 2 things I haven’t quit are: my job, and flamenco.

The reason why I keep trying my hand at other things and not just sticking with music and the job that I have/had, is that it’s free-lance. Times are good, times are bad. Music is artistic, and the web-job is free-lance. Basically, it’s not something I’m guaranteed to always have (if that makes sense). And I’m a person that grew up with VERY little stability in my life, so the thought of living the rest of my life like that……just the thought of it stressed the hell outta me. But still, those are the only 2 things I haven’t quit.

So, finally, my question is: What just sticking with my gut and do music and the internet-marketing job (when I get it back, or even finding clients of my own), or should I keep searching for something else?

Just trying to get some other people’s (aside from family/friends) view, you know, people who don’t really know me, kind of an objective point of view.

Thanks and I appreciate your advice.

To CarolO – I’ve been paying my own bills lol. And I’m currently searching for a new job/clients and leads of my own (I don’t think I can count how many places I’ve applied to this week, from odd-jobs to grocery stores to professional companies, I just some form of temporary income) So it’s not like I’m sitting on my ass. I have been living with my father, but like I said, I help out with the bills and pull my own wait, I’m not a bum. And if you didn’t notice how I said in my question "aside from friends/family", I’ve already asked them, they’re the first people I asked. I’m here for an outsider’s (objective) point of view/personal opinion.
