Air Force open contract, jobs? Ok, i went up to my recruiter yesterday to change fire protection to loadmaster after thinking and he told me that i should come back thursday cause i have to sign paperwork, and then he said i would probaly get a job next month because there are a few opening up, then i think he said theyd probaly be open contract or general, something like that...and ive been reading the questions on here and i think they gave me an open general contract to sign also, so if i refuse to take an open job will they just stall till time runs out or something to try to persuade me take it? and ive been told by a lot of ppl who were previously in the military not to take an open one even before i talked to a recruiter last year also did they change some jobs scores and categories, because when i was first looking at the computer jobs like cyber surety and stuff i could have sworn i made high enough in that area to get it but when i went to finish processing and swearing in the sgt who showed me my contract told me i didnt qualify for most of them and then they were in another area also if anyone is a loadmaster or air traffic control any info would be nice, ive been leaning towards those 2, im a computer type guy and they told me you just push the carts for loadmaster so ive been considering it now, didnt think id be good with it since im not a big muscular type just found my paper...made a 73 overall..could have made better but its done...59 in general and 72 in electronic...

Are "Contingent Jobs," "Contract Jobs," "Temporary Jobs," and "2 Part-Time Jobs" Freedom or Slavery? Contingent labor, contract labor, temporary labor, and part-time labor, all in the interests of a new "flexible capitalism." Ideologues gussied-up this floating workforce by anointing it "free agent" labor, a euphemism designed to flatter. But the resulting reality has proved a bitter pill to swallow. To be a "free agent" today is to be free of health care, pensions, secure jobs, security in every sense. In our gilded era, downward mobility, lasting a quarter-century and still counting, has marked the social trajectory of millions of people living in the American heartland. http://www.alternet.org/workplace/83668/?page=entire This kind of "Freedom"? There are at least 8 million workers who want and need jobs but can't find them. And month after month, more than 200,000 of the jobless exhaust the benefits that have kept them going while they looked for work. Nearly 20 percent of them have been searching for more than six months, the others for an average of four months. In the meantime, the number of available jobs has been declining steadily - by 300,000 over the past six months alone. Which means there is roughly one job available for every two people who are actively seeking work, and explains why as many as one-fourth of the jobless have simply quit looking. http://www.zcommunications.org/znet/viewArticle/17538

My Job Has Changed My Position/Jobs etc even though it states different on my contract, legal? I was unemployed for about 9 months, when I was accepted to work on a job that basically involved going around to schools and helping a member of a charity teach kids about fruit and vegetables. My position was called 'Education Assistant' because of this: Most of what I did related to helping kids learn. In the 3 and a half months I have worked there, I have had 7 sick days off, all because I was genuinely sick. On the 4th/5th, I was told I would not be working with the man I had been anymore and that I would be working in the office instead, reporting to a new mem of staff and so on. I was also given an 'official warning' and told that it seemed like I was bunking, as I had booked a day off for one of the days I was off sick previously? For one/two weeks after I had barely anything to do. My new 'manager' accuses me of bunking and frankly is two faced. I am given very boring tasks and now hate my job. I have not been given a satisfactory reason as to why I was switched off the project, and due to me having barely anything to do(and the guy I was working with being the ONLY person who gives me jobs STILL 95% of the time) I want to quit. Trouble is, I can't, because if I do I will not be allowed on benefits as it will be my fault I don't have a job. Its a contract job and ends in late december, but I am just wondering if they are legally allowed to take me out of my position and put me into something completely different and talk to me how they are,. because quite frankly I am appalled, and miserable at work now. Is there anything I can do?

Am I eligible for employment insurance if I have been working contract jobs? The last time I worked an "official" full-time job, it was in the summertime, and since then I have been working cash contract jobs. Recently I got laid off from one, but it was not considered official employment as there was no tax deduction, so there is no ROE issued. Would it count towards the eligibility of being laid off from a job? I am now working another contract job, but once again it is the same - it's my responsibility to report to CRA my income as there was no tax deductions. I'm just confused as to what is considered an official "job", as per the EI regulations.

Is it ok to resign from a contract job before the contract period completes? My friend is working on the contract job now and he still have five months left until the contract period completes. The contract says this contract can be terminated from either party by two weeks notice at anytime. Is it ok, if he resigns from the contract job before the contract period completes? Or, is this something unusual to do and causes conflicts between him and the company? He wants to leave the job ideally by the end of this year or middle of next month. The reason he wants to leave the job is personal issue and he has no issue with the job, the people he works with nor the company.

How can I get small businesses to post their IT contract jobs on my new IT recruitment site? I'm launching www.skillect.com - new IT job site focusing on contract work.

Are you required to pay Prevailing Wages for state contract jobs? My husband is a HVAC (refrigeration) Technician and has been working a contracted state job for several weeks now. The current prevailing wage for our county in Nevada is $33.04/hr in his position, but he's only getting paid $24.06/hr. My husband actually found the prevailing wage info on the computer at his work that belongs to the bookkeeper (yes, they surf the web on it with his boss/owner so it was okay for him to be on it). Is this legal for them to not pay the prevailing wage? Are they required to only pay a % of what the prevailing wage is? There is another, more experienced, employee who is making the same $24.06/hr rate and he's beyonded angry. If this isn't legal, what do you suggest we do? Please, no stupid answers! Yes, I verified the rate on his pay stubs and it is $24.06/hr before taxes. I also have spent the last 2 hours on the internet researching information. According to the labor commissioner, his prevailing rate is indeed $33.04/hr for us. The interesting thing to me is that they ARE paying him prevailing wages. It states "prevailing wages" for this specific job on his pay stub since his pay rate is different than either of these amounts. So if they are paying him prevailing wages, shouldn't it match what the labor commission states the rate should be?

How to turn down a contract offer? I interviewed at a company for a contract-to-perm position and got the contract job. We've already had an initial project meeting and I've started work on the project for a couple of days, but they only sent me the paper contract to sign and return yesterday (which I have not done yet). This is a non-critical project as it is for their own company website. The problem is, now I have a much better offer from a company I like alot better, and is paying much more. With the proposed start date I would not be able to complete the contract project. I like the people there, and do not want to part on a bad note. 1) Is it inethical for me to turn down the contract now that work has already been started for two days, though the contract has not been signed? 2) How do I turn it down politely?
