Just want to say it's really cool yall have this forum where you read other job hunters' stories or advice. Its frustrating and scary job searching when you're unemployed and you know your money is only going to last a few more weeks. Is there anybody here in the Houston area? I'm an accountant and there are hundreds of jobs but seems like 1000 applicants to every job I apply to. I'll get calls and then its like they just forget about me, I think they have so many to choose from that they get overwhelmed. I guess its better than no job postings. Anyways...I have found this forum helpful, it helps to hear others' stories and see that I'm not alone during this anxious time...wish all of you good luck!
I was responsible for taxes and all company reports. and my first month on the job I made a mistake on figuring payroll taxes. Fortunately, I was able to catch the mistake before the penalty period expired and I wrote a letter explaining the mistake and sent an additional check to cover the taxes due. After that, I put into place a rule that someone in upper management had to double check my work to insure that never happened again.
Retiring early. After 45 years I was or felt burned out and the only way to fix that, I thought, was to retire.
Conestoga Tours has changed since I worked there. They are only a retail tour company now. When I worked there, they owned motor coaches, Avis, retail Tours, group Tours and the corporate company that owned them all one way or another.
I would never advice any one to work there because they don't value human relationship and treats you like a slave .. Every employer should treat their employees like a family relation but not a slave or a vulnerable being ..
Need for more managerial skills in world today
