Those who care to make predictions for what to expect in 2004
may have differing opinions in a number of areas: what the new
fashion in hemlines will be, who will become our nation's next

HANGING CHAD AND ALL HIS ANTI-ENVIRONMENT BUDDIES Voting

I like Simon, one of three judges on American Idol. I find his
feedback refreshingly honest. And while his words startle me
with their ego wounding potential, the traditional feel-good,
let-you-down-easy, sugar-coated feedback is not much of a gift.
It's hard to tell someone they're not good enough and their
dreams are not going to happen, at least in this venue. But not
telling them is no gift either. Some contestants rise to the
challenges he throws at them. Some don't. And, some can't. ...

- Résumé Lies and Half Truths - According to the résumés that
are distributed to large corporations and small businesses, only
good guys look for jobs. This seems to be especially true in the
Information Technology field. You will never see a résumé that
shows that a project was cancelled, or that the programmer was
removed from a project due to his inability to meet the needs of
the company or a client. Instead, the résumé's all show that
only the best of the best are looking for work. ...

I have been searching for over 5 years for the ultimate work
from home internet business job that would provide me and my
family with a life long lasting full time income. But the truth
of the matter is that I have not yet found one single internet
business job that would lead me to financial freedom all on its
own.
What I did find is that with your own web site you could work

We spend too much time and effort into staff training, product knowledge and market research. Don't you think the investment on the staff appearance worth it? You will admit your staff is the first point of interaction with your clients or customers. It's sheer the look of the staff which helps forming a view about you. Let's take some time to consider what you may think of a company that has their staff in Jeans or has their staff in smart suits; what might each tell you about the company? A ...

the right foot. After a lot of trial and error, I have learned
[and still learning] on what to do and not to do to get started
in my "WORK AT HOME " business.
