The Life at Work Forum :: Ask us a Question!

Life at Work :: Whether we care to admit it or not, a great deal of our time and energies are spent earning a living. The workplace has had its own unique challenges; interrelationships amongst staff, maintaining harmony of work with private life, and developing a realistic sense of balance between workplace demands and personal goals. 

Any questions or discussion topics concerning work is appropriate here. Some subjects that might be explored are finding a job, correct attire and demeanor at work, dealing with superiors and or staff, handling layoffs, and throwing the ultimate office party. Seasoned "pros" will be on hand to offer expert advice. People new, or not so new to the job, may ask questions, and create discussions. 
Polls can be written to gauge the opinions of many members. 

If you have, have had, or will have a job someday, the Life at Work Forum is the place to be. Ask us a Question!

Should I do a personal favor for my boss who moved me to a crappier job so his son could have my job?

Stay at home computer jobs
Posted by Johnmg on May, 08. :: 2 Comments
I always see and hear adds about the stay at home survey job, make 150$ a day!! but is any of it for real, are any of them ligit, and actually relatively easy to sign up and do? I would really like to know of a ligit business or company that you can work for as an average joe and understand or train quickly to be able to do at home on your own computer. It all seems too good to be true and as we all know if it seems that way then it usually is.


Any suggestions or experince???

Conference Calls
Posted by quinn1 on May, 07. :: 28 Comments
My good gosh people...in Corporate America and Brick and Mortar companies Conference Calls are bad enough but, I have got to tell you that off-site conference calls are worse. I never thought it possible. True though.

Typically when Conferencing with customer or other locations from a board room you have some long winded peeps or stupid questions, etc. It's the norm, it happens, it will make someone crazy, not a big deal but, kind of annoying anyway.

With all types of people all across the US calling in to get info on specific programs it's much much worse. People don't prepare ahead of time, they don't have any dang sense of business (not muting their kids, music, tv, or other calls, etc) and it drives me crazy. I guess I am too professional for this sometimes. lol.

I'm going to try to do these during the day from now on.

Thanksforlistening
