I've always done factory work. For those that have never done it, this will illustrate your frame of mind after doing it for a little while:

That wasn't a very nice thing to post.

I've probably done that myself in the past.
Honestly, that's the most important in my case. I can eat a lot of $3it for the right money and I've passed on jobs I know I would have loved because it just wasn't enough to pay the bills. On second thought, sure seems fair. The employer is asking whatever they can to get the right person, why shouldn't the employee ask the only two questions that really matter?...

It depends on the job. Entry level shit is a no go. You get what they offer. If you've got some skills or if it's a small business most of the time it's negotiable.

I'll offer some tips I've learned (some the hard way) for hiring:
1. At the entry- to mid-level hire someone who needs the job. 2. At the upper level, run, run, run from anyone who needs the job. 3. People who did x well can't necessarily do different task y well just because you think both tasks are equally challenging. 4. Anyone can hide their freak show for a day or two. 5. Any reservations that you form during the job interview will become amplified post-hiring. 6. Entropy applies to people. The natural tendency is for them to get worse with time, but it is possible for them to get better if energy is added to the system. 7. Hiring has the crap shoot element of the NFL draft. No matter how much energy you inject into the hiring process, the hit rate may not be what you desire. |

MAKE SURE YOU WATCH A GOOD YOUTUBE VIDEO ON TYING A TIE BEFORE THE INTERVIEW.

How important is putting your GPA on a resume? Can it help get the job?
I have a job now, but it wouldn't hurt to know this for the future. |

I was told that GPA should only be on there for your first professional job after college. After that, no one cares. However, I've been out of the game for a long time so it might have changed.
