In the last 4 months he started renting out space in the warehouse to solar companies and Satellite tv companies.

I am currently working for a company that is having a hard time paying me. I don't know how I will pay my bills and I have excellent credit. The owners of my company have terrible credit and I guess they want to bring me down with them. I know I need to find a new job but that will take time. What should I do in the meantime? Could I go down to the Unemployment office to collect? What happens if they will be able to pay me in 2 weeks? Also, I how would I address what happened with a potential employer during an interview? I have heard that it is not a good idea to tell the future employer that the reason why you are leaving is because you are not being paid. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I know that you can get almost any job with a Mathematics degree, and I also that Mathematics graduates have the LOWEST levels of UNEMPLOYMENT, but which jobs can they get exactly?

I'm currently in my sophmore year finishing up my associates in business administration, and I was wondering what kind of jobs would I be able to get? I have been doing alot of job searches on the web, to get ideas on job requirements and salaries. I have found several (administrative, insurance, management, entry level accounting/book-keeping, and a few others). I was just wondering if anyone had any more details or specific jobs that would hire. I am probably going to further my education afterwards (i haven't decided on a particular concentration yet, but im leaning towards accounting or management). If anyone could give me some ideas it would be great! ! Thanks!

Why is it that a lot of companies want those with experience when a 14 year old could probably do the job as long as the directions are clear. I'm in college, yet i can't find a job its kind of pointless to ask for exp when all companies have to do is train the individual which, in my case will probably take an hour or two. A relative of mine is a Payroll Manager and he said his job is very easy, even i could do it. How can anyone (someone who never had a job) get a job if all jobs ask for experience???

Im the office manager. I do payroll and manage the company bank account, credit cards and financials. No one else is trained for this position so I'm wondering how much notice I should give before quiting (I'm moving to another state). The one problem I have is that the last two people who gave notice in advance, for example a 2 weeks notice, they got treated like shit the last two weeks they were there.

I am the payroll manager at my job. There's a girl where I work that makes roughly $24,000/year. She is single, has a child, but claims 9 throughout the year, so she doesn't pay hardly anything in Federal Income and she told me she's getting back $6,000 this year. How is this even possible? I've paid close to $4,000 in Federal Taxes this year and only got back $700.
