How to Escape a Good Job That’s Turned into a Bad Trap by Tai Goodwin - Nov, 2009 When you have what most people consider a “good” job, it is easy to feel obligated to stay where you are. After all, you have what most people want, right? Well most people want that. But there are some of us who aren’t satisfied with the good job. We require work that feeds our passion. Work that has meaning that extends beyond a paycheck. And we need work that lends itself to the lifestyle we want in stead of a job that forc... |

I Hate My Job! by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 Most people, at some point of their career wake up one morning and realize they dread the thought of having to go to work. Not because they didn’t get enough sleep or they don’t feel well, but because they hate their job! Often, however, it’s not the ‘job’ they really hate, it’s the company, boss, peers, or circumstances. When you’re immersed in it every day though, it’s sometimes hard to distinguish the difference. Many p... |

Time for a Career Change? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 It’s a tough economy! No question about it. As people get laid-off, many find that it’s difficult to find their next job.

Keeping A Job You Hate by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 This is a painful issue always. But especially now. Times are tough.

No-Nos For New Jobs by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 A friend just landed a new job! Woo-hoo! She phoned with the good news and then asked this question, “Do you have any tips for how I should act my first week on the job?” Ha. Of course, WG has tips. Weirdly, they seem to all be negative–what not to do. Hmmm. Anyway, here they are: Don’t be late. Are you thinking, “Duh”? But being late that first week brands you as a tardy person. You don’t want this. Even if yo... |

Tick, Tick, Tick by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 Doncha hate meetings? Most do. But even though they’re often an enormous waste of time, meetings still happen in every business, every day. Consider these ways to make meetings shorter. Some are so obvious it hurts. Some are sort of mean. Only hold a meeting if it’s really necessary. Duh. But how many completely useless meetings have you been to? Start on time. Punish latecomers. Charge them a buck. Make th... |

Five Words You Don’t Want to Be Caught Saying After a Layoff by Mary Sherwood Sevinsky - Nov, 2009 Today a long time friend was laid off “unexpectedly” – she was given no notice and turned in her company computer and phone on the spot. Nothing against her employer (business IS business), but she was left ill-prepared, to say the least. “I have a few cards,” she told me in a flat monotone. “I am eerily calm.” Of course, I offered my commiseration and any help in the way of a resume and contacts. HOWEVER, I was absolut... |
