Kroger on Hospital Drive
Sandra, thanks for sending in this tip:
"I heard from my son that the Kroger on Hospital drive is about to hire 4 PT night stockers, 20 hrs/week. Probably pays minimum wage plus night differential. Bonus: you get 10% off Kroger brand items with Kroger card.
Not a great job, but it's employment & the discount helps. I think the hours would be very regular, not all over the place."

Retailers are hiring; good sign, economists say
GEN members, you may or may not be interested in working for this company, but this article, which comes from the Internet, suggests that the economy is looking up, and that's good news. Read on:
WAYNE, N.J. — Toys R Us will hire about 45,000 employees to help with the holiday season, doubling its U.S. work force.
The privately held toy company said Tuesday that it is hiring more workers than in the past three holiday seasons because of an additional 600 smaller stores located in malls and shopping centers. Those "pop-up" stores are called Toys R Us Express.
The news comes at a time when unemployment remains high in the U.S. and seasonal work is viewed as a potential opportunity for a full-time position.
It also shows some optimism about holiday sales. Macy's last week said it was increasing seasonal hiring slightly this year to about 65,000 because it expects better holiday revenue than last year.
"We're pleased that we can create thousands of new jobs as we double our work force nationwide in preparation for another busy shopping season in our stores," Dan Caspersen, Toys R Us executive vice president of human resources, said in a statement.
In the past the company, based in Wayne, N.J., has hired about 35,000 seasonal workers. The employees fill managerial roles as well as sales person positions and serve as stock workers.
Of the seasonal help, Toy R Us said 35,000 workers will be based out of its 587 namesake stores, with the remaining 10,000 working at Toy R US Express locations. The company said it will also hire some employees for its nine distribution centers.
Existing workers will have the chance to pick up overtime at their current locations or alternate stores.
When not contending with the holidays, Toys R Us normally has 45,000 U.S. workers.
Toys R Us purchased the assets of high-end retailer FAO Schwarz after it filed for bankruptcy protection in 2009.
The company announced in late May that it plans to go public again by raising as much as $800 million in an initial public offering that would be one of the biggest retail IPOs in years.

Special job skills workshop at RUMC - TONIGHT!
GEN members, my contact at Roswell United Methodist Church emailed me just now (Monday morning) to say that there's a great 4-hour job skills workshop being presented this afternoon, starting at 1:30 pm, at their church. It is not offered all the time, and the next chance to attend will be Oct. 25th.
We are planning to meet tonight at First Pres, at 6:30 pm, but if anyone wants to go to Roswell, please read on for details. The contact person wrote: "The skills taught in this course are immediately applicable to the job search and could help a job seeker right away."
BONUS on 9/27/10: Five Afternoon Workshops - Prior to our next scheduled meeting this Monday. You MUST RSVP in order to participate (see each workshop description for info on how to RSVP).
Workshop #1 - 3:00 pm to 5:30 pm - The Art of Buying the Right Business-A Business Ownership Boot Camp. Business ownership is not for everyone so choosing the right concept is key. This is the extended 2 ½ hour session. To RSVP please email Bill Williams at b.williams@murphybusiness.com.
Workshop # 2- 3:30 pm to 5:30 pm- Boomers' Winning Job Strategies - Overcoming Being Called Overqualified - Extended 2 Hour Version. Have you ever been passed over for a job because you were called overqualified? Join Curt Engelmann in this highly sought after extended workshop. This workshop is a full two hours compared to the shorter 45 minute overview version during our 7:00 - 7:45 pm evening session. The downturn in the economy has resulted in significant number of older, more experienced, and more highly paid employees losing their jobs. As these individuals seek new employment, they are often told that they are "overqualified" for the positions they are seeking. During the session, we will investigate the concept of a job seeker being "overqualified" and present strategies for overcoming this perception during all phases of the job seeking process. To RSVP please email Curt Engelmann at engelmann@bellsouth.net for reservations.
Workshop #3 - 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm - How to Start or Expand a Career Ministry at Your Church.

"Maximize Your Career in the New World of Work" Led by Craig Simons and Chris Gilliam, RUMC Volunteer and business professionals.

If you want to go to the meeting at Roswell anyway, and arrange your own transporation, here are the details:
