In case you're wondering what professions pay the highest and lowest salaries, there's new research to answer that. Often, college students look at this type of information to help determine their majors.
September 12, 2012 We all have our favorites, and not so favorites in the workplace. And now, a new study has been conducted on who workers fear in the office. You would think the answers would be quite obvious, but let's take a look at the findings.
June 20, 2012 We all know someone who has at one time or another worked at McDonald's. Maybe it was a family member, perhaps a friend or maybe you yourself have served up a Big Mac or two. But how about some of your favorite celebrities, have they ever donned a Mickey D's uni and said, "Can I take your order?". You bet!. Jay Leno, Star Jones and Shania Twain are among many who worked McDonald's before hitting it big. Check out this list from Money.com.

December 2, 2011 During the "Frog Days of Fall", things may get more hectic at work with the holidays on the way - planning time off, shopping, getting the work done...you name it. And some people may wish they had a more satisfying job (with today's economy, most of us are just glad to have a job).
October 15, 2011 Don't panic Neal McCoy fans. It's only temporary. The country star we are used to hearing sing, "All you gotta do is just give me that wink" will be saying, "We have a wonderful selection of pumps" for Sundays episode of GAC's "Day Jobs".
