Not for me, but this year we have a new coach in volleyball who im kind of worried about. He decided he wants me to play power this year (i was starting setter last year and our other starting setter graduates) and hes making our old power hitter learn EVERYTHING about setting next year, because im a better attacker than him. I dont really know why hes pulling such a move. We practice every wednesday and our season starts this coming september, is it enough time? We play pretty competitively too. AAA in British Columbia school volleyball.

My job title is not exactly telemarketer because I don't have to sell, only inform people of a free part of their insurance benefit and ask if they want to take advantage. It can still be depressing to call people and have people be rude and abruptly hang up.

So, I got this new job. Pays $10 hour. I make appointment for folks that are coming to the timeshares. Now, I have heard some of these timeshare people make a fortune as greeters and actual salesmen, but can I do well for myself as well? I was told I get a commission for everyone that shows up. Anyone know about this?

I just transferred to a new school and my coach is the best in the state and thinks I am doing very well for a new player. I'm 6'2" and I made varsity but he now wants me to be starting middle for the team and I have much improvement to do. I generally get the idea on how to do it I just need to fully understand what my main jobs on the court are.

I'm pretty good at warshing cars. After the races, I know those drivers are all hot and so are the crew members. I'm wondering if anybody knows how I can get a contact with Nascar to hook me up with warshing cars and trucks with the drivers or the members. I know it's a hot job, but I could cool off by staying wet. And did I mention, I hand dry? No machines doing the job, I just do it the old fashioned way.

I mean like, is there anything where you can be paid to do (not teach, but actually do) specifically philosophical stuff? I am doing this for a project at school, so I don't need to know where the jobs are located or what the outlook in the future looks like. I just need to know if there are any jobs like that.

The job I was just offered is a purchasing position for a hospital. It aligns with my major in school which is business administration and it would be very similar pay to my current job. My current job is an apprentice tile setter. My company is very busy right now, but it can be very sporadic. The hospital job has benefits and retirement as well, and my current job has no benefits.

My mom just wants me to go into accountancy or inventory-work with my math-degree... I would much rather be a Cook, or a Tile Setter, or paint houses... Anyone in these fields, are they unstable? In other words, do the hiring rates ever hit rock bottom? Are illegals flooding these markets?
