Flexible Working Review » Working http://flexibleworking.net ...looking at the world of flexible working Thu, 09 Dec 2010 10:54:20 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 What is it like working at McDonalds? http://flexibleworking.net/flexible-working/what-is-it-like-working-at-mcdonalds http://flexibleworking.net/flexible-working/what-is-it-like-working-at-mcdonalds#comments Mon, 11 Oct 2010 10:53:17 +0000 admin I’m thinking about getting a job there because I am in dire need of money. I’m a high school student in the middle of college applications, do they have flexible hours? Lunch breaks? Do I write my own resume or do they have their own application? I don’t plan on working there for a long time. Can I quit after 1-3 months?

The pay is great and they are flexible with my school schedule. However, I feel that my current manager uses my age and the fact that I am a female, against me. He threatened to fire me (in a playful way, but he sounded serious) and I can’t take his insults, sarcastic remarks and his screaming. I don’t feel comfortable in this position. This job is still listed on my resume and my manager doesn’t know that his behavior has had a negative impact on me.

I have a job interview next week that pays more and sounds like a really fun job! I really want this job because it is exciting, unlike the position I am in now.

I am afraid that I will not get this job if they know that I am currently working. The truth is, I’m going to quit this job if I’m hired for that other one. What can I tell them, when they ask why I want to leave that position? How can I ace that interview, get the job and stay on good terms with my manager?

I was wondering if they are flexible with their hours, what is the longest shift you usually work? Also at the clothing store I worked at you were able to pick the days and what time of the day you were available to work, can u do that at express? Another thing I wondered about was the interview, when I went to the interview to work at Hollister is was a group interview which made it alot easier, I was wondering if the interviews at express were like that! Any information would be great! thanks

Is it possible? http://flexibleworking.net/flexible-working/is-anyone-homeschooling-and-working-full-time-is-it-possible http://flexibleworking.net/flexible-working/is-anyone-homeschooling-and-working-full-time-is-it-possible#comments Mon, 06 Sep 2010 10:52:14 +0000 admin I feel very strongly about my choice to home school my son. Unfortunately with mine and my husbands student loans we can not live on 1 income. I will still have to work. My job is pretty flexible and i would be able to work around my husbands schedule. Is anyone doing something similar, if so, how does it work for you emotionally, physically, and/or relationally?

With a hectic schedule of juggling looking after the kids and bringing home the bacon, Mums are asking for more flexible working according to a new survey. Over three quarters of the 1677 mums polled on the WorkingMums website said this was a priority for their careers. And nearly half said they’d consider setting up their own business to fit in all sides of their busy lives. The strain to fit everything in means Mums need to be super efficient and speed some tasks up. Nuance have created a range of software to speed up office tasks like typing, so getting home to look after the little ones comes round quicker. The Nuance DRAGON10STANDARD software turns your talk into text. The manufacturer claims that the dictation software is 99 per cent accurate and is three times faster than speaking. So creating that document or sending that email will now leave you with three times as much time with the kids.

I want to work my way up to becoming a certified Medical Technologist. My question is there any army training programs for this, or any “flexible” distance learning school that will still meet the training requirements to be certified through ASCP.
