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.

Barnes and Nobles lady mad because I was moving them Bibles?
I was at barnes and nobles trying to smoke it up, i was pulling out the weed over in the back of the store so that nobody could see me over the shelves of books. But then, something caught my eye--the Bibles were in the Non-fiction section. I was like no siree this won't do, so i began moving them into a Fiction shelf because there was some space there.
anyway barnes and nobles lady came over, she was smiling and looked mad constipated and she says "hello sir do you need help" i was like "nah thank you fam" and then she just stood there watching me put them bibles in the Fiction section. In my head im thinking why won't she leave don't she got nothing better to do? And then she said "sir, do you need assistance with finding a specific book?" and i was like "whatchu mean? Are you blind do you not see what im doing? Why you asking stupid questions?" then she called the manager and he told me to leave or kindly stop, i was like "hold on fam" but then the police came and they pulled me out of the store?
like i was just doing the store a favor
and they found the weed on me! Bookstores suck.

So I haven't used my nook in a year, and recently i have been doing lots of reading so I was like okay let me use my nook instead of using up my phone space.So I out my nook on charge and it didn't turn on or flicker. Should i wait? (so far only 1hour)Okay let me honest, I wouldn't have been asking this question if wasn't for this comment I saw (on the same problem as me) saying the battery is going to explode if I charge it. I am only 13, and so i don't know very much on how or what I should, and my dad doesn't care.[P.S sorry for any grammar, or spelling mistakes, I was typing fast]

I want to become an author, but how?
Do I type my story on word? And once I am finished with my story I get a publisher and an agent? How do they format my story like a book? And once its published, does that mean Barnes and Noble will sell it?
I am completely new to becoming an author so I don t know the steps and what happens. It would be great if someone could inform me.
Added (1). Also I am a 20 year old college student so will publishing a book be costly for me?
