How to Recoup From Missing the Most Important Meeting of the Year


Sometimes missing a critical meeting just can't be helped. Despite the advance planning, you just cannot make it to the meeting. Before you get out the guilt stick and beat yourself up about how stupid that was or how bad it?s going to be for your career, take a step back and examine how to overcome your absence.

5 Steps to Standing Out Above the Crowd at Work


Do you feel like one in a million at work ? and not in a good way? When you run into your boss in the hallway, do you get the impression she isn?t sure who you are? Are the juicy projects always going to someone else?

Unemployment Blues: Mind Over Mood


Our lives are tranquil and smooth so seldom, it seems. We have our ups-and-downs, our good days and bad days, our sunny moods and black moods. The less we swing in opposite directions, the happier we tend to be. The biology of our bodies craves balance and consistency -- changes in our thought patterns and emotions interrupt the regularity of our nerve pathways leading to chemical inbalance and internal disturbances.

How to Tell if You are Fired and Just Dont Know It

Job Lead Websites To Use in Your Telecommuting Search


Let me ask you a question: are you tired of using job sites only to find scam after scam? I bet you're nodding your head in agreement to that question.

Successful Job Seeking ? The Importance of Your Cover Letter


As an employer I receive many job applications each week. Some cover letters are so well written that I am compelled to review the attached resume even if our company is not currently hiring.

Other cover letters are sufficiently interesting that I will file them away and review them later in the week, while others simply beg to be deleted immediately.

The Case For Internships


America may be the Land of Opportunity, but this is also the land of the Big Trade-Off. Sure, you can have that nice house, but you?re going to have to become a mortgage slave to keep it. You can drive that fancy sports car, but you?ll have to fork over an insurance premium as hefty as the GNP of some Third World nations. In the Bible it says, in life, if you want honey, you get bees with stingers. For anything worth having, there?s price to pay.

Wake Up and Learn Something New


The US Government has just released last month?s job creation figures. It was the lowest number in two years. This is a revealing and disturbing snapshot of what is actually happening in the real economy, not the one artificially created for the headlines. Our US GNP or Gross National Product, is based upon manufactured durable goods.

The recent improvements in jobs and growth are substantially confined to the service sector. Manufacturing is what drives the US economy and it is suffering.

Think About a Nursing Degree


If you decide to get a degree in nursing, there are many things you need to know and consider first. Choosing your nursing school may not be as easy as you expect. There is research that needs to go into it to be sure you get the best school available to you. You are going to want to look into different college programs, where they are located, how much they cost, what degrees they offer as well as information about scholarships and more to help you make an informed decision about which is best for you.

Employment Under A Microscope


A certain amount of oversight is involved in almost any job. The more important, the more highly skilled, the more successful the position, the lower the degree of oversight. At the bottom rung of the economic and social ladder - the laborers, the maids, the easily replaceable positions - the more watchful are the powers that be, the less secure are the workers, the more personally vulnerable are they to any mistakes made.
