I'm an Office Manager and Senior Executive Assistant with a current security clearance (secret) and military background. I want to search for a job, but in no particular city. How do I do that? Normally when job searching, you search for a job in a particular city. I just want to put my resume out there and see what feedback I get. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I had stayed there for about one month with a social visit visa; the company gave the work to process my job visa to an agent; 3 weeks past already the visa is not avilable now.Meanwhile, I have to leave Malaysia since my social visit visa expired.What could I suggest the agent to have the visa quickly processed by the immigration department and should I need to apply to the Malaysian embassy again in my own country to have sticker in my passport after I receive the job visa letter from the Malaysian immigration which the agent should send me? Many thanks for your cooperation.

All my current senior executives are male. However I wish to be seen as promoting equality by considering to promote a female executive who have just join your company not too long ago to that senior level. I think she is well qualified for the job and has people skill, but everyone knows that there are more capable male staff who are better and more capable than her to take that job. My senior executives have indicated that they are not happy about my plan. What can I do now ?

I recently found out that a male co-worker makes more than I do. Another co-worker found a document that was left on a fax machine and listed certain employee's salaries and told some people what she found. I suppose under some circumstances, this would not be a problem, however I am more senior than him. I am a Senior Account Executive and he is currently an Account Executive. I have more years in the industry, much stronger and broader skill sets, and more responsibilities. I have heard other co-workers complain about his lack of experience and his inability to efficiently manage his accounts. On one occasion, some co-workers requested that I be brought in to help manage one of his accounts because things were so disorganized. Despite all of this, I still think my boss is a fair person, and that this situation can be salvaged, but I'm not sure what the best way to handle this is. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I should approach this topic with him?

Companies around the world have in later years adopted formal statements of corporate values, and senior executives now routinely identify ethical behavior, honesty, integrity, and social concerns as top issues on their companies’ agendas. What are your experiences with working with corporate values? How did you identify your company's core values? How did you communicate them? How did you implement them? I am very sorry that honey007 has had some bad experiences with corporate values. It sounds like you need to change your job and find some happiness somewhere else. However, I am heading the corporate values work in the company I work for, and I asked my question on a positive note. I want to engage the employees in this proces and have them take responsability and ownership on the work. I know that whatever I do some people may feel left out or disagree with the proces, but I am looking for advice as to how NOT to offend people or leave them behind in the proces.

John McCain says he wants to lower taxes. It's a basic conservative belief: Taxes are bad. Government intervention into your life is bad. And yet McCain wants new taxes on your employee health insurance coverage, as if it were part of your salary rather than a fringe benefit. Besides the new tax on your health care insurance, if it raises your income into a higher tax bracket, you will pay higher taxes on ALL of your income. We've seen this kind of thing before, when they started taxing tips along with wages. Whether you work for McDonalds, Walmart, IBM, any union, or any other job that offers fringe benefits... First he'll tax your employee health care. Next, perhaps your life insurance. And then perhaps your employer's contribution to your disability insurance. And then your employee discounts. Company supplied computers and tools... Company car... Company supplied meals... When we allow government to start taxing our employee benefits, we're setting a very dangerous precedent, at least for the working person. Senior corporate executives and others who can afford accounting staffs to find tax dodges for them, will be just fine. So the question - Do you really want the government to start taxing your employee benefits like John McCain proposes? And is more taxation really what conseratives want?
