  • First-timer at airline recruitment event?

    I recently applied for a flight attendant/cabin crew position for an airline company and I have never done anything like this before so I need to know what to expect and what I need to mentally prepare myself for when I go. And what do I wear? They only told me to wear a skirt and nude stockings but what about on top?

    I also need to bring a resume and a photograph but I don't know what to say on my resume because I don't know what kind of experience I should put that relates to being a flight attendant because all my previous job experience was in the food industry so I don't think I should put that on my CV, it just seems irrelevant to the job I'm applying for.

    And what kind of photograph should I bring? One from my shoulders up or a whole body photograph? How many pictures do I bring with me?? Yeah, I'm totally new at this so I really need someone with experience in this area. I really don't wanna mess this up. Thanks in advance for your help and advice.

  • Do guys get turned off by this?

    If a girl tells you she's into Justin Bieber (let's say she's not a fan girl, she only listens to his songs) would that be a deal-breaker for you? Let's say you think she's 99.9% perfect to you but JB keeps it from being 100%. Would you still get to know her or would you think she's an immature girl without even knowing her that well just cus she listens to JB?

    Also, would you get with a girl who has no experience in relationships (like never had a boyfriend and is still a virgin)? Or would you rather not deal with that and find a girl with experience? And if so, why?

  • Need help with this guy?

    Okay so I just found out from my classmate that this guy in our class really likes me. And to be honest I wasn't surprised when she told me cus he flirts with me a lot but I never knew for sure and he had never made a definite move or asked me out. So now that I know for sure that he likes me-cus I kinda like him too, I mean, I wanna get to know him better-how do I get him to make a move? What do I say to him to get him to ask me out? All help is appreciated as I am quite new to this, yet I am not a little teenager, I'm in college. So please help! : )

    Oh and one more thing: My friend told me that he likes me but he's kinda weary about me ever since I told him I liked listening to Justin Bieber. He's 5 years older than me but honestly he's being unfairly judgmental cus I only listen to JB and nothing more. I'm not like a crazy fan girl or anything-used to straight up HATE the kid but my little sisters got me into him, so now I listen to his music just cus. I've been told I'm pretty mature for my age but I feel like I blew it when I told him I listen to JB. How do I get him to really give me a chance? I mean, he's really missing out on a lot of other stuff if he just lets Bieber get in the way ya know!

  • Guys: Who do you prefer amongst all the fish in the sea?

    This question is mostly for guys but I'd be glad to get girls' take on this too.

    Why do so many guys flirt with so many girls but can never choose who they wanna settle down with? Like be girlfriends with? They're always touching all the girls intimately, and I get confused if they like me like that or are doing it just for a booty call, cus frankly, I'm not lookin for a booty call and neither are most girls. So why do they do it? And who do they choose out of all of the other girls? How? Why?

    Is it because they want to sample everything on the menu before they decide what they want? How do I know if a guy is serious about a relationship even if he flirts with me and a lot of other girls around me?

  • Guys are so confusing! Who do you like dammit?

    This question is mostly for guys but I'd be glad to get girls' take on this too.

    Why do so many guys flirt with so many girls but can never choose who they wanna settle down with? Like be girlfriends with? They're always touching all the girls in that intimate way you know, and I get confused if they like me like that or just for a booty call, cus frankly, I'm not lookin for a booty call and neither are most girls. So why do they do it?

    Is it because they want to sample everything on the menu before they decide what they want? How do I know if a guy is serious about a relationship even if he flirts with other girls?

    I have an example:

    My co-worker is hella nice to me and he and I flirt all the time with each other. He always says things like "I love you" and stuff like that but he says that to a lot of other girls too all the time. He even shows me little notes with girl's numbers who left it there for him after they ate (he's a server). Then these past few days when I come to work, he'd come over to me, hug me and pick me up and say he missed me ("jokingly" of course, but he says to everybody at work) I just don't know if he means it genuinely to me. Then after he hugged me, he said something the other day to me that went like this: "Oh my God girl you're so skinny! I wish my girlfriend was that skinny!" (FYI: He doesn't have a GF, he broke up with her like 6 months back).

    He'd just come out of nowhere and hug me and I like that but I don't know if he means it sincerely, or if he's just trying to cop a feel and check my waist sizes and body measurements. (Guys do that ALL the time in order to sneak in a feel). But what does it all mean???? Please help.

  • Help with cute guy *there's a twist to this one!*?

    This is kind of a long story but to make it short: I REALLY like this guy in my class and I think he is SOOOOOO cute. He's like, SUPER cute and pretty sexy, I won't lie. BUT.....I recently found out from two other people that he's gay! I don't know for sure, they're both gay too though. They don't know him personally but they asked around and stuff and said he's gay. It sounds CRAZY, but he doesn't look gay AT ALL!! I kinda talk to him during class a little bit and get his attention - cus he may supposedly be gay, but that doesn't change the fact that he is frickin hot okay...So my question is..do you think he'd change if I lure him in long enough? Like if I play my game right?

    I honestly don't know 100% if he's gay or not and I don't wanna assume that, but I won't believe it till I hear it from HIM. I just haven't known him long enough to ask him or talk that personally with him. And it's kinda hard to talk to him cus I don't work with him in class, I just take every opportunity to talk to him whenever he's working near my area - cus if I don't have a chance with him cus he's supposedly gay, I AT LEAST wanna have him as a friend ya know. Is there really a possibility he might change if he really IS gay? I feel like he kinda knows I like him cus I make it evident when I talk to him and I told some of my classmates who probably talk about me to him, but I wouldn't know. And he kinda alludes that he might be interested in me too, it's his body language that I try to decipher that leads me to this.

    I'd appreciate any input and your take on this, especially from gay, lesbians or bi's. I can give you more info if you need, I know this might be a little confusing so I'll be glad to add more info if necessary, just ask me. Let me know cus I'm SERIOUS, I'm not joking around. I REALLY like him, he's that frickin cute! Him being supposedly gay doesn't deter me. Any dumb comments will be reported!

  • Help with upstairs unit people stealing our mail?

    I am living in a single family house with my family in the downstairs unit and the people living upstairs have been taking our mail and important letters from OUR mailbox. I know this because I went to check the mail one day before going to work and didn't find anything in the mailbox, but after coming back from work at midnight, I checked the mailbox to find a STACK of letters all for us.

    I want to know what I can do to make them stop. I'm thinking about reporting them to the Section 8 Authority because they live on Section 8 and are abusing this because they are taking someone else's mail. Or should I go to the post office?? Or the police department? I don't know what to do but this HAS to stop. It's been over 2 weeks now and we haven't gotten ANY mail so far. Please help.

  • Background noise reduction video camera?

    I'm looking for a good video camera that doesn't pick up background noise like the wind. I want to be able to record with it and you can hear everyone's voice, no matter how far away they are, as if they're right next to the camera's microphone. Is there any camera that has that? Or do I need to just buy extra little microphones and have them clip it on them and connect it to the camera I'm using? I need some feedback on this especially if you're a camera or tech person. Thanks.

  • What's the right word for this?

    At my new job, I am part of the agency people that works at the company, and the other people are direct-hire, which are from the company. So there's company and there's the agency.

    After a few weeks of working there, I-and many of my other co-workers-noticed that there was a lot of favoritism directed towards the "company" people against us "agency". So there's this silent war going on between the "company" and the "agency." How so? The company people get better treatment and they are more informed about things. I wasn't even trained and they also just got 2 new people and are training them! They somehow expected me to already know everything about their company!

    Recently, I asked my supervisor a simple question and all she could say was "That was in the manual, did you read the manual? It should've been in the manual." I told her I read the manual and I didn't see it there and waited for an answer, but she proceeded to ignore my question. When the new "company" girl asks her questions, she ALWAYS answers them. I know this because she tells me so!

    Plus they gave the new "company" hire a different-looking manual than for me, we all got the same position but they gave me a black & white paper manual and the "company" people a color paper manual with a plastic backing. So that one must be more updated than mine cus I didn't find the answer to my question in the one they gave me!

    So I believe it's favoritism they're playing but I'm looking for another word here, like bias or prejudice or "agencism" or something! I just don't want to use the wrong word cus I automatically think "racism" or some word like that but I don't wanna say the wrong word. So what do you call that? What's the right word I can use for this?

  • Help with credit card fraud/signature forging?

    My dad used my mom's credit card without her knowledge-a long time ago when they were separated but trying to work out their differences-and now the credit card companies are coming after her with lump sum collections payments to pay off the bills and fix her credit.

    The problem is that she barely used any of that money, it was all the work of my dad. So she wants to report him and take him to court and make him pay for it since he was the one who spent it all. She'll pay what SHE spent, but not what he spent of course. So how do we go about this because justice needs to be served and he needs to PAY for what he did, he can't ruin her credit at our expense and just run away like he didn't do anything.

    He needs to take responsibility and pay it off, they are divorced and physically separated now and he absolutely refuses to pay off what he spent so we need to take legal action. My mom doesn't work, she's never had a job in her life, she's been a housewife ever since she married him and I'm the one who works, so this whole credit stuff is basically gonna fall on me and I'm gonna have to pay for it, and that is NOT happening.

    I don't know where to start with this so if you are an expert in law your answer would be greatly appreciated, I have a very hazy view of our rights so I need help with this. Thank you so much for all your help.

  • Help with car starter/solenoid switch/alternator?

    I own a 1999 Chevy Prizm with 125,000 miles on it. I bought it from a dealership at 120,000 miles and for the past few weeks, it's been starting up hella funny.

    When I start the ignition, the car clicks and doesn't turn on. It eventually starts but sometimes it takes a while.

    I went to the mechanic and demonstrated for him and I asked if maybe it was the starter and he just said yeah and slammed me with a $360 estimate if I wanted to replace the starter. $194 for the starter part and $170 for labor. He was very vague and didn't even open and look under the hood at least.

    So I kinda wanna figure out what it REALLY is on my own and see if I can get it done instead of paying all that money and more-which I don't have right now-so that I can have peace of mind when I'm driving my car. I really want to gt it done as soon as possible cus I need my car and I can't afford having it break down on me in times like these.

    Also, my airbag light has turned on and it never did before. I asked the guy about that and he said the car is detecting a problem with the system. And if I want a diagnostic, that's another $100 bucks right there! These guys are crazy!! I read online that I could be that there's a problem with the system, or it's just that your car is simply telling you the airbag is working.

    I'm so confused, please help me. If you need anymore info on the car just let me know. Thanks everyone for helping.

  • ATTN: Red Hot Chili Peppers fans?

    I'm kinda new to listening to this band and every time their songs came on the radio I'd cringe. But I've been gettin a change of heart now and am a little more open to hearing their songs. I really like Californication and Snow (Hey Oh). They're nice slow songs that make me feel relaxed. So considering that, what albums and songs do you recommend I listen to that you'd think I'd like.

    I heard Mommy Where's Daddy a long time ago and I HATED it so bad-still do, I don't like that style of RHCP, but the slow songs are nice. I don't know too much about them but I wanna finally give em a legit chance cus I gave em one before and I just listened to the wrong songs. So give me your fave album and fave song or single that relates to my liking and I'll check em out. Any funny band stories are welcome too! ; P Thanks in advance!

  • Entry-Level Flight Attendant Job Seeker?

    I have been trying for years now to find a job as a flight attendant, I applied here and there on the airlines websites but no response has come back. Plus, since I have no experience in the field and am an entry-level candidate, it's even harder to get my foot in the industry's door. I need help with this, I was thinking going to an open house call but there aren't any in my area-(I'm near SF, CA)-or maybe I'm just not looking right.

    And I'm also thinking about taking training classes but they're expensive and I don't want to waste my money on a possible scamming training school. So any help or advice-especially from present or former flight attendants-would be appreciated.
