help choosing my first car?

We Answered:

My suggestion is get the 5 series, much more reliable, never get the flagship 7 series, even if it looks like a good deal, plus they are notorious for being the worst car to buy used. The 5 series is one of the most famous executive saloons out there to buy. The 540i is the best in my opinion, got the V8, but if you live in a snowy climate, then I would try not to drive em in it, due to the lack of traction with the RWD configuration on the car. The Mercedes will cost way too much, more than the BMW's and Mercedes aren't as reliable as the BMW's. Another suggestion is the E46 BMW 3 series, try those, one of the best cars out there, but not as big. The 5 series is awesome, but make sure its been taken care of right, check the vin with the BMW dealership and take the car there to get it checked out, there will probably be some hidden problems, if not whatever, and go buy it

Brian Said:

how do you get a job?

We Answered:

When you are applying for a job, dress the part. Ive seen good workers fail to get a job simply because they didn't dress to impress. Also go in with a good attitude, don't sound overly needy (Sob Story) while talking to the employer, this may give them the impression you have been turned down many times for employment. Be honest and prompt with answers to any questions you are asked.

In Search of a Job
As we have already seen, the situation in the labor market is very complex. As a result, there are many valid methods of looking for a job. Any who are entitled to them can make use of government unemployment benefits where available; and where applicable, they can enroll at unemployment offices and use services offered. Others find a job by creating their own employment. But caution should be exercised. Often the self-employed have to meet heavy initial expenses that may not be easy to pay off. It is also necessary to know and respect fiscal and tax laws—no mean feat in some countries!—Romans 13:1-7; Ephesians 4:28.
To find work, some have made a job of finding a job, dedicating themselves to it with method and perseverance. Others have written to companies that are looking for personnel, or they have put announcements in local newspapers—some of which print job-request announcements free. Awake! has often given useful and practical advice on the subject—for young people and adults alike.

You must be adaptable—willing to do all kinds of work, including jobs you do not necessarily like. Experts say that among the first things asked about at job interviews are previous work experience and length of time out of work. Loss of the work rhythm is not a good sign for the potential employer.
A person who wisely spent his time in school acquiring skills has a better chance of finding his first job. “Unemployment,” says Alberto Majocchi, teacher of financial sciences, “especially affects unskilled workers.”
The Importance of Emotional Support
One important factor is a positive outlook. This can make the difference between finding a job and not finding one. The unemployed greatly appreciate emotional support, which helps them avoid isolating themselves or falling into apathy. It also serves to overcome the loss of self-respect that can result from comparing oneself with others who have not lost their jobs.
Making ends meet may not be easy. “Worried as I was, I found it difficult to make good use of the time on my hands,” says Stefano. “The situation made me so tense,” recalls Francesco, “that I began to find fault with some of my dear friends.” This is where the support of the family comes in. The lack of income requires adaptation by all members of the family in order to reduce the standard of living. Franco, fired at the age of 43 after working for the same company for 23 years, says: “Right from the time I was fired, my wife was positive and a source of great encouragement.” Armando is particularly grateful to his wife for “her great prudence in shopping.”—Proverbs 31:10-31; Matthew 6:19-22; John 6:12; 1 Timothy 6:8-10.
Bible principles can help us to keep a positive spirit and not lose sight of the more important values. Those interviewed by Awake!, mentioned above, have drawn comforting reassurance from the Bible. This has made them feel closer to God. (Psalm 34:10; 37:25; 55:22; Philippians 4:6, 7) Having an intimate relationship with Jehovah God is of the utmost importance, for he promises: “I will by no means leave you nor by any means forsake you.”—Hebrews 13:5.
Whether one is unemployed or not, God’s Word encourages one to cultivate qualities useful for everyday living. It is no coincidence that Jehovah’s Witnesses are at times sought after and appreciated as honest workers. They follow the Bible’s counsel to be diligent and reliable, not lazy.—Proverbs 13:4; 22:29; 1 Thessalonians 4:10-12; 2 Thessalonians 3:10-12.
Freedom From the Specter of Unemployment
Underlying the lack of work, there is a root cause—human selfishness and greed. As the Bible says, “man has dominated man to his injury.”—Ecclesiastes 8:9.
The problem of unemployment—and other problems too—will be resolved by the removal of human dominion, now in its “last days.” (2 Timothy 3:1-3) There is need of a world that is really new. Yes, a world in which a righteous human society can live and work under a just and fair rulership, where greed will be no more. (1 Corinthians 6:9, 10; 2 Peter 3:13) That is why Jesus taught people to pray that God’s Kingdom come and that His will be done on earth.—Matthew 6:10.
Prophetically describing the elimination of some of mankind’s principal problems, God’s Word illustrates the effects of that Kingdom: “They will certainly build houses and have occupancy; and they will certainly plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating. . . . The work of their own hands my chosen ones will use to the full. They will not toil for nothing, nor will they bring to birth for disturbance.” (Isaiah 65:21-23) The specter of unemployment will soon disappear for all time.

KATRINA VICS..Do we owe them?

We Answered:

Well, here's what I think:

I think it's great to help people out. Now they've gotten checks to help them on their way, they've gotten places to live temporarily, and they've gotten an opportunity to apply to jobs (the people in this one area, anyway). Eventually we have to cut them loose. We shouldn't set up any more job fairs, we shouldn't give them any more cash, and we have to set a clear deadline to get them out of the temporary houses. Then we have to stick to our guns and send them on their ways. If they don't take the help when it's offered it's no ones fault but their own.

Teaching Holiday in Canada, where should I start?

We Answered:

You can't just come to Canada and work, you would need a work visa for the time you are here and considering how hard it is for teachers who live in Canada to get and maintain a good teaching job I would think that teaching for a few months would be difficult at best.

As for experiencing Canada I would avoid living in Ontario and Quebec,great to visit but I really wouldn't want to live there and go to either the East Coast which is famous for its hospitality, friendly people, and rugged coastline or the West Coast which has some of the coolest and oldest wilderness in North America, the Rocky Mountains, skiing and alot of great outdoor activities and a flavour all of its own. Basically there is so much to see in Canada that it is almost impossible to see it all, just get a taste of it. Check out this site to help plan your trip:
