Phone won’t stop ringing? Here’s what you do…
Leola Starling of Ribrock, Tenn., had a serious telephone problem. But unlike most people she did something about it.
The brand-new $10 million Ribrock Plaza Motel opened nearby and had acquired almost the same telephone number as Leola.
.
From the moment the motel opened, Leola was besieged by calls not for her. Since she had the same phone number for years, she felt that she had a case to persuade the motel management to change its number.
Naturally, the management refused claiming that it could not change its stationery.

Plato said that work should be play. Some airline employees have taken his injunction seriously. After landing, one flight attendant announced, “Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. We hope you enjoyed giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride.” There’s a flight attendant who knows how to turn her work into play.

Several large U.S. companies are actively seeking thousands of new employees. » Firms that are hiring
As many big companies are announcing mass layoffs, these Fortune 100 employers have at least 150 openings as of mid-April.
It’s no secret that many big companies are announcing mass layoffs and pay cuts in the recession. With 5.1 million jobs lost nationwide since 2008, and the current unemployment rate at the 25-year high of 8.5%, it’s easy to feel down about the battered labor market.
But the job prospects aren’t entirely bleak. We looked at the top 100 of this year’s Fortune 500 list and found 28 with at least 150 job openings as of mid-April. Some, like Wal-Mart, say they’re hiring thousands of people to staff new locations. Others, like Motorola, have hundreds of positions open in a variety of fields: engineering, sales, finance, marketing and project management.
Brush up the résumé and iron the suit. Your next job could be a click away.
