| Do you have any advice against noisy coworkers? I have tried earplugs, headphones and a quiet room, but they keep talking LOUD. Should I ask them to keep quiet? They seem to hate me, whenever I hush them. |

The jobs are few, and the high demands of being a librarian are not something I can live up to. I'm still applying for librarian positions, but by and large, ... |

| Asking for salary is not easy with friends or family. But, that dog watching job really sounds like a job. I think you should ask for salary or a discount on the rent. You are not just doing favors here, you are actually working with the dog. A job is a job. |
