  • Did I sprain or break my hand rebounding the basketball?

    I was playing basketball yesterday and rebounded the ball with one hand and brought it to my other hand like I normally do but this time when the ball came to my palm, the joint right at the base of my index finger really hurt. I still have use of the finger but I cant grasp anything with it and that area of my palm is swollen. It feels really tight when I bend my finger around my knuckle and the palm of my knuckle but doesnt really hurt to much. Did I brake that part of my hand, sprain or dislocate it?

  • My salary review is in 5 months but I get my A.A.S degree in 1 1/2 months. Should I ask for a raise then?

    I just started at a company as a computer technician. The HR lady said that my position required an associates degree and they hired me since I was going to get mine soon. She said that the pay was 30k to 36k but since I didn't have my degree yet they were starting me at 25k. My salary review is in June basically but i get my degree in March. Should I ask for a raise as soon as I get my degree?

  • What is the fastest way to move up in a company?

    I know the most obvious details:

    Hard work, Dedication, Ability to follow directions and take orders, Positive attitude and Team attitude.

    However, what about the things we can't control:

    Favouritism and etc.

    I am taking a job at Geek Squad at my Best Buy as a way to get a foot in the door for my tech career. There are six levels in Geek Squad:

    COA- Person who makes calls to customers explaining there diagnosis and helping customers on the sales floor

    CIA- In-store technician

    DCI- Basically the supervisor/manager of the CIA's

    Agent-field tech in training

    Double-Agent- field tech that supports in home problems.

    Special Agent- Technician for business and etc.

    I will be obtaining my AAS in Network Administration in December and hope this will speed up the process of promotions but other than that, any other ideas on what i could do to move up as quickly as possible?

  • Who is at fault in this accident?

    i was on a 4 lane road split by a solid yellow line for the oncoming traffic on the other side. I was in the left lane and traffic was slightly backed up. so a little bit further ahead is a turn lane but before the turn lane were the diagonal yellow lines that you can drive on to get to the turn lane if traffic is backed up. As soon as i got to the yellow diagonal line, i turned my signals on and merged into the yellow lines leading to the turn lane and as a did a car come flying by, mind you im in the left lane, so he basically tries to go around me and my left front bumber hit his rear right bumper..is it my fault?

  • Am i wrong for going out with this girl?

    So my friend Sean has a friend named Katrina and a couple days ago she invited him and i to go to the movies with her and her friend. Supposedly this was to hook up Sean with Katrinas friend and i was just along as a wingman/potential interest for Katrina. Long story short Katrinas friend ended up liking me and now that i have gotten to know her' i like her too. However, Sean thinks that i went behind his back?? He said that they were flirting with eachother but it was on facebook lmao but she actually asked to hang out with me and things took off from there. But am i wrong? or is he over reacting?

  • Does she just want to be friends?

    Ive been seeing this girl for about two weeks now. Ive made her dinner and she has made desserts and etc. She doesnt mind me putting my arm around her in public or in the movies and i kissed her on the cheek and she didnt mind that either. So i decided that i would ask her to be my girlfriend. Everything inside of me said dont ask but i had to so that i wouldnt end up in the friends zone. So i told her that i really like her and thought she was an amazing girl to be with and asked her to be my girlfriend. She said that it was really sweet of me to ask and that she really liked me too but she wants to take things really slow...what does this mean?? She isnt interested in having a boyfriend now or just wants to be friends??

  • Follow up on job interview?

    I am trying to get a job at verizon. I have had two phone interviews and a store interview. After the last interview, i was told about the next step in the process, which is having a in person interview with the HR. I was told that i was going to get a phone call but that has been 2 and a half weeks ago and i have tried to do a follow up on the situation and i leave my number for her to contact me but it seems as though..either she isnt getting my number or she doesnt want to call me back. Should i keep trying to get in contact or would that hurt my chances of getting hired?

  • How long should this take?

    So, here is what has happened so far. I had an phone interview with the store manager and then an interview in person with him. Then after that i had a phone interview with the HR. After the interview was over, she asked me if it was ok to have a background check done on me as well as a drug test. Of course i said yes and then she said that the next step in the process is an in person interview with her but she said she still has to go through other phone interviews but she would be giving me a call. It has been almost 2 and a half weeks since then and i havent gotten the call. If anyone has ever been hired at verizon or knows anything about the hiring process, could i have some insight? it would be much appreciated.
