Nine and a Half Ways to Get Yourself Fired From an IT Department
There are a lot of fools around who will do many of these things automatically without this advice. Perhaps this advice may make them think twice.1. Produce work that constantly falls over in Systems Testing and in Production.2. When the manager gives his weekly/monthly talk to the department, make sarcastic comments to those nearest to you that the management can’t hear (or so you think).3. Under pressure, put a couple of changes into Production untested. After all the back-ups are run, the program falls over again, and there is no time for a further back-up. Systems will be up late in the morning, and the big boss will be telling your boss to make sure it doesn’t happen again. He will not be very pleased with you to say the least.4. Use your lunchtimes (and work times) to look at porn on the net. The Internet is not very secure and Technical Support is normally the biggest rumormongers and gossipmongers in the building.5. Keep checking your share prices on the Internet or over the phone and tell your fellow workers things like, “I made five grand today”.6. At the Christmas Party make a play for your boss’s wife, challenge him to a fight when he complains, or better

he hearing. The court will decide at the hearing whether they will suspend the Return Order and what monthly instalments you should pay from now on. If you do not fill in the admission form there will be a hearing anyway. If you don't go to the hearing the court will probably grant the creditor an order telling you to return the goods.

I Was at the Point of Giving Up With My Website - Then Something Wonderful Happened!
This wasn't meant to sound like one of those "rags to riches" stories but for me, it sure seems that way.Hello. My name is Gary Simpson. I live in Perth, Western Australia.My internet presence commenced in August 2002 after I signed up with what has now become known as a notorious web-host company (if they could be called that). They fleeced me for several thousand dollars at an all day "seminar." I exchanged good money for a litany of broken promises, inferior template design, ongoing costs and shocking service. Ouch! Welcome to the world wide web Gary!After suffering far too long trying to make that useless scenario work I paid a lovely lady even more money to extract me from their clutches. I struggled along over the next few years with poor listings and quite dismal results. This was despite the massive effort that I was putting in to boost my site in the search engines.In desperation, I bought lots of so-called "secret" reports from what I now know are self-styled internet "gurus" - all professing to have the "magic formula." None of them were any good. I got so frustrated and angry that I wrote a series of articles called "A Simple Guide to Analyzing All Those Web Tra

WHAT IS HIRE PURCHASE/CONDITIONAL SALE?

Although people often talk about "buying on HP", Hire Purchase Agreements are quite unusual these days. Cars are the most usual goods sold under Hire Purchase or Conditional Sale Agreements. With Hire Purchase and Conditional Sale Agreements, you do not own the goods until you have paid the credit agreement off. This means they are not the same as ordinary credit agreements.

This means you cannot sell the goods yourself without the creditor's written permission. If you sell the goods without permission, it can be a criminal offense.

On ordinary credit agreements, the goods you buy belong to you from the time you take out the credit. The lender cannot take the goods back. They can only ask you to pay the money you owe under the agreement.

WHAT IF I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY?

If you fall behind with your payments on a Hire Purchase or Conditional Sale Agreement, the creditor may be able to repossess the goods. Look at your agreement. There will be a box telling you how much you need to have paid to stop the creditor taking the goods back without a court order. This should be a third of the total amount payable under the agreement.

If you have paid a third or more of the total owing, the creditor must go to court to ask for the goods back. They cannot just come round and remove them. Even if you have not paid more than a third of the agreement, the creditor will need an order from the court to remove the goods from "any premises" they are on.

This appears to include your garage or drive but not a car park or roadside. If your car is parked on the road, or in a public car park, then it would be at risk.

WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE IF THE CREDITOR HAS TO GO TO COURT BEFORE THEY CAN GET THE GOODS BACK?

There is still a chance that you can keep hold of the goods, as the court has the power to agree to this as long as you can pay the debt back in reasonable instalments.

If you have a third or more of the total payable under the agreement, the creditor will ask the court to send you a Claim Form asking for the goods to be returned.

This is called an application for a "Return Order". Notice of a hearing date with a District Judge is included. This hearing should be in your local County Court.

There will be form with the Claim that you should fill in and send back to the court within 14 days. You must fill this in if you want the court to suspend the Return of Goods Order and allow you to keep the goods at home. You need to offer to pay the debt back in monthly instalments you can afford. It is important to treat this debt as a priority over ordinary credit debts and offer as much as you can.

Send the form back to the court, not the creditor. The court will send a copy of your form to the creditor. If the creditor accepts the offer the hearing will be cancelled. If the creditor does not accept the offer the hearing will go ahead.

You must attend the hearing. The court will decide at the hearing whether they will suspend the Return Order and what monthly instalments you should pay from now on. If you do not fill in the admission form there will be a hearing anyway. If you don't go to the hearing the court will probably grant the creditor an order telling you to return the goods.

Self-Employment And Work Experience
For many years I managed a computer training centre. During those years I handled the financials, sales and marketing, human resources and anything else that required input. During this time I also on rare occasions and as an emergency, took over in reception answering the phones. This was not difficult and I did a fair job of it. Certainly never had any complaints! I abided by the easy principle of being friendly to people. I would hazard a guess that I would not be able to find employment as a receptionist as I would not have sufficient work experience.What experience would be considered essential to being a good receptionist? I would guess, being able to deal with people would be the most important. Learning how to use the telephone system would require a maximum of half a day's learning, and any clerical systems the company used, would be different from company to company. This means previous experience would not count.Take this reasoning one step further and apply this to self-employment. If you work for yourself, you will be required to deal with people. Would answering the telephone at a large company provide you with the experience you need? Or would you be able to learn how to do this

Shortfalls of Seminar Training for Soft Skills
In his book Working With Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman describes how millions are wasted on two and three day leadership and management training seminars. In some researched cases, performance actually dropped after seminar training.In most instances, seminar training is like drinking from a fire hose. Participants are bombarded with facts and techniques. They are lucky to come away with a few swallows while the rest the valuable information goes down the drain. It's estimated that if you're exposed to an idea once, you're lucky if you recall 50% of it after one day. After two days, you're lucky if you recall 25%. After 16 days, you're lucky if you recall 2% of the information you were exposed to.For added perspective, let's explore another area of good intentions. In the United States, Weight Loss and Fitness is a $37 billion industry. How much of that money do you feel is well spent? Most agree that like seminar training, much of the money is wasted as exercise equipment and fad diets fail to sustain the desired improvements.Don't we already know that if we ate properly and exercised more, we would get res

Customer Complaint - A Complete Job Review
As like any other person who works in a customer service job, I surely get to see my fair share of customer complaints. Just about on a daily basis, some one or the other comes in to our store to complain about the product or the service or perhaps even both. Although it would not be right to say that all customers are annoying, there are those customers, who especially aggravate me with their right to customer complaints. Please allow me to explain.Few weeks back, there was this guy who ‘mistakenly’ bought a pair of shoes with two left feet. Well, that is the truth. As a matter of fact the shoes department is the one with a fairly high number of customer complaints. This gentleman bought the shoes alright, but if he were like you or me, he would have realized that there was something wrong the first time he tried them on. To top it off, he managed to wear these shoes for an almost continuous period of three months before a colleague pointed out that there was something wrong. That is when he came back to the store to lodge a customer complaints about the service offered to him.As a rule, if he had brought the shoes back in a near new condition, we would have handed hi

WHAT IF I HAVE PAID LESS THAN A THIRD AND THE CREDITOR WANTS THE GOODS BACK?

If you want to keep the goods you should ask the creditor to agree to a payment arrangement with you. The creditor is most likely to accept if you can afford the full monthly instalments plus something towards the arrears. If you can't make the full payments, the creditor may agree to reduce the payments, but usually by a small amount and only for a short time. In certain circumstances you may be able to go to court and ask to pay less than the full monthly instalment and extend the length of the agreement.

HOW MUCH WILL I OWE IF THE AGREEMENT ENDS?

If you have to decide whether to end a Hire Purchase or Conditional Sale agreement there are two options:

* return the goods voluntarily;

* let the creditor end your agreement and repossess the goods.

There can be a difference in the amount you end up owing depending upon how the agreement is ended.

YOU END THE AGREEMENT

You have the right to terminate your agreement under Section 99 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974

If you decide to end the agreement voluntarily and hand back the goods to the creditor, you should only have to pay up to half of the total figure on the original agreement, minus what you have already paid, plus any arrears from missed instalments, and damages to the goods (in certain circumstances). It is very important that you tell your creditor in writing that you are ending your agreement voluntarily. If you do not do this, then your creditor does not have to act on your request. Keep a copy of your letter in case you need proof. We have included a sample letter in Appendi x III, you may want to adapt to send to your creditor when ending the agreement.

Warning: If you have a Default Notice sent to you by the creditor because you are behind with the payments on your agreement, this may mean you will have lost the right to end the agreement voluntarily and return the goods yourself. It depends upon your agreement. Your creditor may have called in or "terminated" the agreement when the Default Notice runs out. Some agreements say another notice to terminate the agreement has to be sent to you after the Default Notice has run out.

THE CREDITOR ENDS THE AGREEMENT

If you fall behind on the agreement, the creditor will terminate the agreement in writing. They must send you a "Default Notice" under the Consumer Credit Act 1974. They will then order you to return the goods. The Default Notice tells you what payments are outstanding and gives you a date by which to make up the arrears. The whole balance may then automatically become payable and the agreement terminated. Some agreements need another notice to be sent to you before the agreement is terminated. You may have to pay the full amount owed on the original agreement, minus what you have paid and minus the amount the creditor gets back from selling the goods. The "option to purchase fee" is also deducted. Most agreements will include a clause telling you that you must take reasonable care of the goods. This means the creditor might argue that there will be an extra charge for damage or unusual wear and tear. It is important to look at any charges to see if they are reasonable.

Some creditors try to charge you for collecting the goods after the agreement has been terminated. I
