How can I…..?

Move out on good terms with my mother? She thinks I’m so unrealistic and naive. I graduated hs at 16 (managed to squeeze my way into the harsh world of rock journalism as I traveled and wrote articles for a large record company) and graduated beauty school a month after I turned 17. I’ve had two jobs for as long as I can remember, and yet I’m still a failure to her. I’m moving from FL to Chicago in November where I will start college and get a job in a salon. And yet she laughs every time I mention it. She constantly has negative comments and it tares me apart. She thinks I believe life will be such a breeze away from home. I know things will be different, but not a major struggle, I’ve been paying my bills for the past two and a half years (phone, car payments, medical, medicines, groceries, gas, beauty school tuition, etc). I just need her support. I know in life the only support system you have to count on is yourself, but I just…need her to understand why I need to leave.

Help?

How can I pull this off…?

Okay, so this didn’t happen recently, but I just now thought to ask a question about it.
My dad used to work for a company in Urbandale, and he had a non-compete agreement with his boss.
His boss was totally ripping him off so he had to quit. (That part was obvious.) But because of the agreement, now he had to move all the way to Chicago and get a job there!!! And he has to stay there for 2 years!!!
I’m only 13 and I really feel like this is a part of my childhood that will be gone forever.
But would I be right in saying that if I put his old company out of business, he could come back?
Just tell me if I’m wrong about that last part.
But, if I’m right then how can I do that?
Or is there something else I could do?
If so, what?
Thanks!
(Sympathy is welcome too. But if you’re going to say, “deal with it”, then be prepared to have anything you’ve ever written reported!)

Should I go to Loyola University Chicago or UIC for my undergraduate business degree?

I know Businessweek ranks Loyola’s undergrad business program as 103 and UIC’s program as 105. There’s not much difference between the two but Loyola is two ranks higher. But I believe it’s also more expensive than UIC. I’m sure companies would look at Loyola more than UIC. But my case is a little different. After I get my bachelors, I am immediately moving to Sydney, Australia and will be living with my cousin. I will already start searching for jobs before I go to Sydney. Will it really matter if I go to Loyola or UIC for my bachelors then? Won’t employers in Australia treat Loyola and UIC degrees the same and hire me if I am the right candidate? Because If I am right, then I should just go to UIC and not waste money on Loyola. Please help me out guys!!
Oh sorry, and I’m transferring from William Rainey Harper Community College to one of these schools (Loyola, UIC)

As a single mother raising two kids without child support could I owe alimony?

My soon to be ex wants alimony; I’ve had two attorneys and cannot seem to get a straight answer as to whether he has a case. We separated after nine years of marriage. We had two children together who are now eight and four years old. I wanted the divorce largely because I could not convince him to work full time.

We split in August 2010. At that time he chose to abandon his part time job and was fired for job abandonment. He had the option of going full time employment with the company but chose to move out of state, eight hours from our kids. He is now working sporadically while pursuing a comedy career. I have full custody of the kids; he has not seen them since September 2010.

I work full time from home as my youngest is Autistic. I worked in downtown Chicago but took a work from home position to accommodate some of the educational needs.

Here is the dollars and sense of it, he made around $18,000 a year part time and I made around $70,000. In my eyes that $70,000 is ok money for a single person but I am raising two children 100% on my own, he is not paying any support. I pay housing, daycare, medical expenses, and school clothes, not to mention lots of money to lawyers trying to avoid paying another dependent.

Lastly, I never finished college so I do not have a degree. My soon to be ex has an associate’s degree, 15 years of customer service experience, supervisory and management experience, computer skills, telephone skills, has held insurance and investment licenses and is capable of working. Since he moved of state he has no child-rearing responsibilities, nothing like raising children or maintaining a home keeping him from working.

I welcome any feedback, even reasons why I should pay alimony.
I understand people have been ordered to pay a custodial parent child support and alimony. However, In my situation I am the custodial parent. I understand women who raise children sometimes get alimony and child support in order to care for the children, my ex does is not caring for children or disabled.

What kind of experience should I gain if I’m looking into getting my MBA in health-care?

I graduated with an undergraduate degree in Accounting and Finance. I’ve worked for a big financial company for a year but recently left since I’ve moved to Chicago. Now I have job offer for a Technical Institute which I plan on taking. However, my long term goal is to get an MBA in Health-Care. I was thinking is there anything part-time I could do to gain some experience in Health Care so when I look for a job after my MBA it would be beneficial? Would care-giver job experience help? Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks!

flying out for an interview?

i’m in the middle of a long distance job search, and after two interviews, the company has offered to fly me out (i’m in boston. they are in chicago) to interview. the individual i last interviewed with was the person who called me today. her words were “we would love to fly you out for a day next week so we can meet in person. i will have my assistant get in touch with you to arrange the details.”

great!

i have an etiquette question. as i’ll be moving to chicago in june (i’m not assuming i have this job in the bag. but i’m going either way). i do need to look at apartments, so of course i’d love to take the opportunity to do that when i go out next week for the interview. i can stay at my boyfriend’s apartment.

now, when the assistant contacts me, is it appropriate to ask that my return flight be scheduled for a later day? can i say, “i’m so happy to be coming out to chicago, and i would love to take advantage of this trip and look for apartments during my visit. is it
possible for my return flight to be scheduled for a few days later? i am not in need of accommodations.”

is that appropriate? how would you word this?

Should I move to a different country for a new life?

I’m a reporter living in Sydney and am just really unhappy with my life.

I don’t speak to either of my parents who live in sydney and just feel stuck here.

I feel like I’m drifting apart from a lot of my friends and I can’t relate to a lot of people here.

I have qualifications in television as I have done some work for a TV network and my dream job is to work on the Oprah show. Should I apply for a job there and move to Chicago if I get it?

This is not a stupid question – I have worked for big news companies in Australia so I think I would actually have a chance at the job. (I’m 25)

I have received your email regarding the 2003 Honda Accord EX with only 80,145 miles. The car is located in Sharon, MA at the shipping company. The car is in perfect condition,with no scratches on it,no damage, clear title. The engine is a 4 Cylinder 2.4 liter. The transmission is automatic. The price for the car is $2,800 with shipping included.The car was my husband`s as he loved it very much, but he did not enjoy it as he died in a IRAQ 3 month ago. It brings very bad memories to me, I want to get rid of it.The buyer will receive the car with all papers and receipts that he needs to register it to his name.Shipping will be done whit DAS and it will take no more then 2-3 days. I have a friend there who will manage me a low price shipping and I assumed that it is my duty to pay for shipping it.It will be delivered directly to your address.Anyway, I have to let you know that I want a fast deal so if you are really interested in buying it,please reply with the following information’s:
-Your full name;
-Your shipping address.(street,city,state,zip code)
The transaction will close only through eBay so we both will be protected.
I want eBay because as they are the biggest company on the internet I think that we can close this deal fast and safe for both of us. Also I am not very familiar with the internet transactions and eBay is the only one I know.I will look for your email,so that we can move forward with this deal!
Let me know.

P.S I attached you some pictures with the car,

Would the police force me to get on a plane to go back to my parents if I decided to stay in another country?

Last year my family moved from Chicago to Sydney, Australia for my dad’s job and I am totally miserable here. His company gives him tickets for us to fly back home to be with our family & friends, and I just convinced them to let me go before school starts up. My aunt invited me to live with her, and my coach on my cheerleading squad said she’d give me my spot, so I’d be able to resume my life there. I was a straight-A student and very happy in Chicago. I’m 16 and going into my junior year and my parents want me to stay with them until I graduate in 2011. I will seriously go insane by then because I hate it here that bad. I am an American citizen. If I go to Chicago and then just don’t get back on the plane to come back to Sydney, do my parents have the right to force me to return? Would they have to fly all the way over to Chicago just to get me? Would the police like make me get onto a plane to go home?

Yesterday a girl asked a question similer to mine about her friend who is 17 and wanting to just not come home from China.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Al6GGPPqussU3PphPQ7MEXfty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20090806232227AAh7qJv

Could she really stay in China? I’m just wondering.

I want to move to the USA?

i currently live in Melbourne Australia. I am only 14 but once i finish school and do my apprenticeship i want to move to Chicago. I am aware that i will need to be working and living in the states for a certain amount of years but how would i go about getting a work Visa. I was thinking could i go over for a holiday and do a bit of job searching. Then could i find a building company that would be willing top sponsor me and could i apply for citizenship that way. I wan to get in as easy as possible (legally). Is it worth the effort. How would i get a citizenship. Does it help that i’m Australian and both countries have pretty strong ties. Thanks.
Once i finish high school can i go over and learn building over in Chicago. What visa do i need please explain more and in more detail.

Anyone has experiences with them. They told me I have to wait 4 weeks. They will put 2-3 customers’ stuffs in the same container. That’s why they have a good price.

Landlord is shady light company? Can I break my lease?

I moved into a new Chicago apartment in November and when I tried to have my lights connected in my name I was told that my building does not exist. Apparently my building was rehabbed and the owner removed the old meters and when he put the new one in he did not register them. So now according to the light company my building is no where on their grid. I was told to call my landlord and ask him to call an inspector out. When I did he said the light company tells that to everyone and that he has had “problems” with this before and would call them. Three time I have call the light company and three times I was told the same thing “Your building is not on are grid. Call your landlord” When I try to tell then about my landlord they say he needs to call not me. So I was wondering can I break my lease and move because I don’t want to get a light bill six months from now for a $1000 or be without lights because of my landlord didn’t do his job.
In my lease I’m to pay for cooking gas and lights only. My landlord is to pay everything else.
The lights are on in the building and in my apartment but I want to do the right thing and be billed correctly. I don’t need any trouble with the light company because I knew what was going on and did nothing. The blow back and karma from this is going to be hell and I want my hands clean!

I have an interview with Comcast in Chicago next week.?

I have an interview with Comcast next week for a corporate trainer position. I’m having second thoughts now as it is a traier position in a call center. I’m currently training for a call center and though I love the work I want to move a way from the call center industry. Should I go for this job because it will get me to Chicago (oh…did I mention i really REALLY want to live in Chicago) or should I wait for a better opening in an indusrty outside of the call center world. If anyone works for Comcast can you give me some insight to the company or their experiences that would be helpful. Thanks!

SCAM OR NOT?!

Was I Wrong to DECLINE the Job offer?

Before judging, please read my entire question.

I am 30 years old and live at home with my dear, sweet parents. I have been there for four months now, ever since I quit my job with Disney Cruise Lines. I just didn’t care for the position. As it stands, I told them over coffee when I first settled in that I would not leave their house until a job called offering me $100,000 a year. Hell I see plenty of rich, snotty girls downtown with major bank buying what they want and it makes me so jealous. I doubt these office women worked hard to where they got- Daddy’s connections surely got them placed (I mean, explain all the women who are “smart” at work but dumb when they’re in bars or out in clubs). No, I’m a very respectful and reserved social person, and I should be making more money.

Anyways I have a BA and tons of work experience- writing for papers, fact checking, entertainment performing, singing, program development- you know, the works. No one was calling me for a job and I was starting to get desperate. Even desperate enough to start demanding $95,000 instead of $100,000. Then the phone rang! It was a employment company I had applied for asking me to come in and interview for a content writing position. I was ecstatic. I borrowed my mom’s lipstick to doll up as they say, got in a dress with flowers on it, and waltzed out of the door like I owned Chicago.

After the interview, the lady was very impressed and then asked me about my salary requirements. This was it- the big question. I cleared my throat, took a sip of my Starbuck’s coffee (they did allow me to drink it there), and said “I won’t settle for less then $100,000.” I smiled confidently, knowing I had made the right decision.

The lady laughed a bit, and then told me they could only get me going in the mid 40s range. “Like $40,000? That’s it?” I asked. The lady was patient, telling me she valued my experience and encouraged me to try it since they needed someone with my skills and I could move up easily. I wasn’t listening anymore though, as I got up and put on my V-kneck coat.

“Look honey. You give me a ring when you’re ready to give me $100,000 a year plus three days off a week. I don’t work Fridays. Other then that- I have parents who support my career decisions and also give me a place to sleep. Peace out.”

The woman seemed shocked but then shrugged as I walked out and said good by to the secretary. I knew I had made the right choice- and I could always call the company back. There were some other people dressed up in suits waiting in chairs by the office I interviewed. Who could they be, I thought. Probably employees taking a break when they should be at their desks. Lazy jerks.

When I got home I was beaming. I actually had been offered a job and turned it down! My mother and father were eating dinner and seemed happy that I was happy.

“How did the interview go?” My mother seemed anxious.

“Well, they offered me the job for $45,000 a year…” I began. My parents interrupted with cheers and hoots. My mom gave me a hug and then asked when I thought I would start so I could begin looking for an apartment. I interrupted them back.

“I declined it. I told them I wouldn’t work for less then $100,000. Remember, we had this discussion. Now can I borrow $20 for dinner tonight? I’m broke since I don’t have a job right now.”

But my parents were not so understanding. My mother blew up- calling me a lazy leech who was a fool to decline such a great offer in this economy. My father told me to leave his presence, and that they would decide what to do with me later. I couldn’t believe it! I tried reasoning with them- telling them that as long as they don’t charge me rent, food, cable or phone, I would do my part in helping out too- like answering the home phone and taking messages, and locking the door for them when they went to work in the morning- If I was up yet. They didn’t seem to think that was enough. I was so upset I cried in my pillow until 2am, and then had some half gallon ice cream and watched “I Love Lucy” to cheer myself up. The next morning I slept until 3pm, so I wasn’t able to lock the door behind my parents. When the phone rang I ignored it. That’s what those barbarians get for not supporting my life choices. The job refused to pay what I was worth. I wrote my parents a hand written letter saying in summary that until I was offered $100K I would remain in their home. The latest update is my parents refuse to speak to me and have given me a 30 day notice to leave or they will take higher action. What can they do? I’m their daughter.

Advice on this?

How do you tell your family your moving far away?

I’m from Chicago and I recently got a job in FL. I’m going to be graduating from college this spring and I start the job in early June. My friend who graduated last year got a job at the same company and got me in and were going to room together save on some costs. My brother is having his first child being born in May. I know this will be hard on my and my family. But I’m a biology major and in order to get the job I want I need some work experience. This job in FL will really help. I only plan on working here for 2 or 3 years. But I’m just worried that I will either like it down here, find a job that I want down here, or find a girl down here and not want to leave. My family still thinks that I’m going to stay around Chicago. How do I tell them I’m moving to FL this June? I know my grandma is going to take it the hardest and my parents are going to try and lay the guilt trip about me not seeing my nephew. How should I go about doing this?

Should i travel to the chicago ?
