    left to write: no. Although this particular gadol, I frequently forget to speak to in third person, and he is pretty chill about it because he really likes me.

    Toi: Yes, thats completely true.

    Pixelate: Lots of complicated stuff, like if I am yekkish, and other stuff I won’t discuss here.

    Yehudayona: No idea what your talking about.

    childcare is good, but at the same time when making your resume, you will want other things on it such as real jobs besides childcare. I would say many schools have part time secretaries and may only need a morning secretary. the reason they gave part time positions inany places is so that they dont have to give benefits.

    What city are you located in? If New York, check out jewish press, hamodia, luach. lakewood, jewish press, hamodia, luach. Chicago, achdus bulletin and likutei peshatim. Other out of town cities may have their own weekly bulletin. Pretty much all places with a sizable Jewish population have a place that offers free job placement services for unemployed Jews. You need to network with adults and other friends of yours meaning, make sure everyone you know knows you are job searching. Also be open minded, that way, you are more likely to a job faster at your age.

    that all for sure maked sense, as a cashier in a frum place last week we had a few customers who clearly were not jewish, one wearing a burka (the thing that only lets you see their eyes is a nikab) and people started freaking out, it made this customer feel awful. a customer is a customer. on top of that a different jewish customer thought she was some other religion, and after the Muslim customer left, I corrected her when she was on the phone… it was really sad that I.had to tell a person twice my age that that is how some muslims dress.

    I think that even though we dont have tv and stuff like rhat, if magazines like mishpacha slashed their prices by a third, then it could partly solve the problem.

    i think that in general, its a good idea. However, I feel that chinuch is the major exception to the rule because you don’t want the children questioning their own hashkafa as a result of their mechanchos doing “hypocritical things” so to speak. I mean, tznius is a really big deal, and there seems to be this major idealistic picture in the yeshivish velt of the “good girl”.

    I will admit that as a bais yaakov girl myself, the “good girl” concept is pretty much the same thing as in the secular world glorifying celebrities. I don’t have a problem with aspiring to perfect one’s middos because that is part of our avodas Hashem, however, when I was at seminary, I heard girls who go to, just to name a few schools, mesores rachel, meohr, pninim, machon raaya and other places say that they weren’t “good enough girls” to go to bjj, tiferes, and hadar. That is when it gets extreme. And there girls are really good girls, however, I would not want them to be morahs at a modern orthodox zionist camp like moshava, because modern orthodoxy (and this is very much a three weeks type of post) will say that they despise chareidim, and modern orthodox jews don’t raise their daughters to wear lots of dark colors, duty length skirts, or necessarily cover their elbows and knees.

    Let me know if you chap what I am saying.

    but clearly not on the same level as when the complete bais hamikdash was around. the reason the kosel is still there is to show us that there is hope.

    playtime, yes, I really am a cashier, the job is actually a lot harder than you think because there are like twenty different types of taxes for food and its hard to remember sometimes which tax to press. also I get to use a walkie talkie and I am still learning how to do it.

    no, but that means it is a year round job.

    so you could spend your spare time working as well. I just got a job as a cashier. I dont want to say where because otherwise you might find out who I am. I am an adult though. if your in new york, try luach, parnassah network, ou job board. if your not in new york for sure still try the ou job board, but depending on the size of your community, there might be a bulletin somewhere, an newsletter or something of that nature. when I was in high school, would go to my schools job coach towards the end of the year and got one job through there and that started off my career, I am now on my fifth job and planning on this being permanent. yes, some was volunteer work, but your chessed hours count on your resume as if it were an internship.

    and bw on wellfare for the rest of my life? I already have enough strikes against me in shidduchim, at least in the states, I have a place to live until I can save up enough money to move out.

    thanks, I will take it as chizuk because one of my rebbeim is waiting for my mom to call him to sort it out. he said that given my situation, what I am doing makes sense because of my mentality and lifestyle. in general. I have an israeli mentality, but nobody else in my family does and since I live in the states, nobody around me does either so I occasionally run into situations such as yesterday when I didnt wait for people to get off s train before going on, where people dont understand what I am doing.

    there are statistics that say that stay at home mothers earn less money when they go back to work than mothers who go back to work three months after giving birth,I would recommend, or at least if I had the bracha of being a stay at home mom for a year of trying to update my credentials with a small boost. I have heard it can make a big difference.
