Time toupdate my resume and apply for jobs in Fresno

this sucks. I hate applying for jobs, but I don't want to be a therapist anymore, so grad school would be stupid.
I am applying for a guidance counselor position for CSU Fresno, a program director for a drug rehab and a few area coordinator positions for learning centers and non-profits.
*crosses fingers*
I really need to go back to work full-time and move back to CA ASAP. I need to get aout of Nevada.
Anyone else looking for a job right now? How's it going?

 

My job sucks, but I'm getting too old and the economy too bad for me to start over.

 

I have a good job here, 20 bucks an hour, all the paperwork from home and I can make my own schedule and anytime I drive from my house to anywhere for work I get mileage.
The thought has crossed my mind to go to full-time at my current job and stay here. Andy's going to be gone 9 months out of the year anyway.

 

Let me ask you something:

When you go for jobs that require college degrees, do they check and ask for your degree? Or is it like jobs that require H.S. diplomas and they don't check?

I'm not trying to be funny or mess with you, I'm really curious.

Also, do these people check job references either? I've never had a job check other job references. I know because I always play stupid and ask. "Did my other employers say anything nice? hardy har".... they reply, "Well they can't say anything other than whether or not they'd rehire you, but we didn't call them anyway".

I'm just curious because I know I can fake a resume and get a pretty decent job. My real resume isn't bad as it is, but if I throw in a degree, I'm set....

 

They always ask for a copy of my degree adn my job now verifies the degree with the university (they've had people fake degrees berfore).
I know when I checked references, and couldn't get a hold of them, but REALLY liked someone, I would make them up all the time. I know a couple fo my jobs have done that with me as well.
You might be able to get away with it, but be prepared to be caught and have a savings account just in case you do.

 

Meh. I don't need the job. I just want to buy some things that I currently shouldn't buy. After that, I'd be right back to what I'm doing now.

 

I want to go on a vacation alone. I need soem time to think-sigh.

 

Check yourself into rehab.

 

I am not the one who needs it-trust me. I need a vacation from teh person who needs to check himself into rehab.

 

Sounds like some good potentials.Hope you find what your looking for.
