 | I have been in the small offset field for over 25 years. I have seen many changes over the last 5-10 years with the advent of digital technology. Now there are fewer jobs for press operators and many shops are even choosing to reduce equipment and staff and farm out much of their work.
Is there a future in this business for a top-knotch press operator, or should I consider changing over the next few years? Or, is there a change I can make within the field? Is it possible that my career may continue for the next 20 years? My experience ranges from running little old AB Dick duplicators to a Ryobi 3304 (small 4 color press).
What would you say is the future for the small commercial printing business?

 | I have applied for a job, had the interview, and successfully attained the position, only to be told that because I am bankrupt they cannot employ me.
This maybe understandable if their was cash handling involved, but this is an operational engineers position (Press operator) am I wrong in thinking this is wrong and possibly and very loosely discriminatory
I mean, just because I have to suffer the embarrisment of bieng a bankrupt, this would not have any reflection on my working ability or commitment to any future employer.

 | Before de-industrialisation one would associate jobs such as welders, drill press operators, mechanics, assemblers, etc., with the British working class. However, today now that most factories are boarded-up, what are some of the typical blue-collar jobs still open to working class youths when they leave school at 16? I'm sure the numbers and variety of jobs have dwindled enormously.

| I live in Salt Lake City and have been working as printing press operator for the last 14 years. I'm just getting really tired of the stress and the physical beating that I have been enduring. I think of myself as a bright person who can learn to do just about anything.
I have good computer skills (mostly with Macs), mechanical skills and organizational skills. I'm very accustomed to working hard and solving many problems during a work day and I always strive to become very good at everything I do.
I do work well with people...(one on one or in small groups) but, I don't see myself as the sales type (I'm too honest). I do enjoy working as a team with others and training new people.
Anyway, I'm looking for any suggestion for a new career. Currently I'm working only 3 days/week (long hours) and have 4 days off. I'm hoping to taking an online course to certify myself for a new job.
I'm looking for a career where there is a demand for trained individuals and I can get started soon.

 | For example,for a job that has three parts and only one part requires using the machine,is it best to assign just one operator for all three parts of the job,or two, or three operators (one for each part).(with one operator,the machine will be idle for a while,with three operators, the men will be idle for some time.) i know that i should take into account the operators' wages and the cost of the machine (electricity,...),but what other factors should i take into account?

| Getting cut off instead of waiting. waiting for long periods of time. numbers to dial are busy or inacurate. automated numbers without the option to press 0 to talk to an operator or to get transferred to customer service. and when you finaly do get a representitive, them being incompetitant enough to put you on hold for 5 minutes and then accidently cut you off because they dont know how to use the phone line/computer system. what in the world do you do about this horrible customer service?

 | I'm still a student in cosmetology school and I want to look for a part-time job as receptionist or shampoo girl for now. Problem is I don't always have to time to change my clothes, so I usually end up wearing my school uniform around for the remainder of the day; My uniform is black slacks, with a short (sometimes long )t-shirt of either black or light purple/lavender,an apron and I.D. badge. I was wonder since my uniform is related to the type job I'm applying would it be okay, or would it be better to change?
