The Human Rights or Civil Rights Commission should be stepping in on this. Have they been eliminated?

Am I eligible for any benefits?

I was not working because I chose to take some personal time off when the pandemic hit. I was ready to look for work when my state (Oregon) began the stay at home rule. I tried to contact the Employment Dept. several times, but was unsuccessful. Anyone know if I am/was eligible for any benefits? #benefits #beenwondering

Have you ever been totally lost starting a new job?

Training for a new job is kinda key so you know what to do - and what expectations are. Have you ever had a new job and been totally lost, or had to figure out daily work for yourself? #aboutmyjob #training

Sadly, on-the-job training is becoming a thing of the past, and it's showing in major corporate companies, especially with customer services.

Customer Service Representative at West Corporation

Yes. It was a temporary position and I felt like the project was something Noone else wanted to do so they called in a temporary person. I was given very little direction and to this day I could not tell you what the goal of the project was. I honestly do not know. It was busy work with no clear objective. Very strange. I got paid for three weeks and quit.

What would you do? Tip jar etiquette

Just witnessed this interaction this morning between a customer and a barista at my local coffee shop. Customer is short for their overall order by $.50 and instead of putting something back or getting a smaller size they instead reach into the barista's tip jar to take out the necessary amount to make up for the short fall. When the barista commented, "Excuse Maam, those are our tips." The woman retorted, "You need to calm down." and proceeded to take the change and pay for her bill.

If you were the barista what would you do in this situation? Have you ever been a customer where you felt entitled to the tip jar to make up your bill's shortcoming? #foodservices #customerservice

That’s considered theft and the police should have been called. Fifty cents or not it doesn’t matter. Theft is theft.

I'm sorry. This is not the give-a-penny, take-a-penny jar. You are only short 50 cents.

Have an interview coming up? Follow these tips (#4 is SUPER important...)

If you have an #interview coming up, it's normal to feel a bit anxious. But, no need to stress! Here are 4 tried and true tips to help you nail your interview!

  1. Prepare: Ask a family member/friend to conduct a mock interview with you and run through some tough interview questions.

  2. Arrive early: Plan ahead so that you arrive at the interview about 10 minutes prior to the start of your interview time.

  3. Watch your body language: Sit up tall, smile, and make eye contact throughout the interview. Avoid fidgeting and suppress restless habits like nail-biting, knuckle cracking, and toe-tapping.

  4. Follow-Up: Always follow up with a note reiterating your interest in the position and thanking the interviewer for their time.

What tips would you add to this list?

Some said that the most difficult about a job search was the interview..Perhaps, but i would tell the job-seeker....do your homework about that company...and above all....make a good impression.....you will never have another opportunity to make a first impression.Dress to impress....professional, neat, well-groomed....avoid flashy jewelry....eye contact....more but these tips are basic.

My Thoughts on Tuesdays

What is holding people back from returning to work? This question keeps me wondering why people are still not applying for jobs? With all the companies looking to hire, people still are not applying. It’s time to break out and shine. Today is the perfect time to start applying for a job. Start at your own pace and grow into it. Yesterday at Home Depot in Taunton, MA. while I was in line waiting to cash out. I was approached as other in line were too. The clerk asked if we were interested in a career with Home Depot? She was asking random customers if they would like to apply today? Have you taken notice to the longer lines when shopping? This is do to the shortages of employees. Notice how shelf’s require stocking. Restaurants are struggling to find help. What is holding you back from returning to work?
