Former Barnes & Noble Employee. Where to now?


So I was in Barnes and Noble for a year and half but had to resign due to improper management replacement that forced almost 10 employees to resign in two months. I was in receiving and Bookselling. Where can I apply that'll let me use those skills. I do no want to do receiving anymore, I even turned down a position yesterday because it was that. Where's a fitting place to apply next for part time?

Should I sell or keep my stuff, before I move overseas?


I recently decided to take a job overseas. My contract is for 3 years. I can't decide if I should keep or sell my belongings. I will be taking my work related equipment, clothing, some jewelry, laptop, and a few other things. The rest I plan to leave behind. I can't decide if I should sell or keep my stuff, before I move overseas.
Added (1). I'm keeping my pictures, photo albums, and year books. I'm talking about furniture, small appliances, and other household items. Pretty much every sentimental item I own, won't fill up a suitcase.

Nook Color with black screen…Anything I can do?


My nook hasn't been charged in a while, as I didn't need it, but it always had the little "Please plug in your charger" Battery icon… Until now. It's just a black screen, and I've tried holding the power AND home key for at least thirty seconds, I've tried it all. And I'm really worried. Any answers?
Added (1). **I've charged it for at least seven hours

Is Silver Arch Books a good place to buy books?


It's from the used store on Barnes and Noble.com and looking at the ratings, I found mixed opinions. Anyone else have experience with them?

On Barnes and Noble.com, you can buy used books from sellers. Is that smart?


Will I actually get the book I wanted?

Lost my dog during a typhoon?


2 nights ago at 6 PM I was using the restroom and my door was opened, allowing my dog to escape from my room, to our backyard and onto the streets in the span of 15-20 minutes. As soon as I realised she was gone I bolted out of the house and searched every street, calling out her name and whistling while it poured. I could not find her that night, though we did search all the streets again and the surrounding street. I live in Zone 10 Pilar village and it has 2 large gates that connect it to the main roads, which we searched. We talked to all the guards within a 2-5 km radius and went to the police station, swimming pool, animal clinic and several surrounding shops in the area.
Yesterday we spent the whole day posting 60 missing posters and included 'REWARD' to help attract people and relevant information all along the village and the guard post offices. The weather is unpredictable, rain, drizzling, dry, strong rain. I spent all night looking at all the nooks and crannies in our village and she's only been spotted once inside the village. She was spotted yesterday at 7 AM, went missing the day before at 6 PM and no news as of now where she is. I'm frightened and need advice on how to search for her and what to do. She's a small shih tzu and I don't know how she's surviving the night. I'm afraid and I want to help her. I don't know what to do now. I think there's a big chance that someone has picked her up and that she may no longer be in the village. Any advice?

Will Barnes and Noble hire me?


I'm currently a 17 year old senior in high school, and I really want a job, esp. At barnes and noble. I have experience working with books since I'm doing service at my school's library for a class. I stack, organize, do the displays, etc. Do you think Barnes and Noble would hire a teenager with at least SOME experience with books? I plan on applying at the beginning of next year because I'll be done with all my college applications by then. Or should I wait to apply until I'm 18? I turn 18 early April next year.
