Answer 1 :
have you thought about relocation or starting up your own business
Answer 2 :
I feel for you, and all of us. Try to hang in there, and do what ever it takes to keep your home. I have a good feeling about things turning around if,and only if the big 3 can get there loans. The loans are key right now to tide them over. Once this recession is over and people start needing new cars, the big 3 will be on massive overtime to meet demand. It will happen, It's just going to take a couple of years, so in the meantime, flip burgers, deliver papers, or whatever it takes to hang on. Good luck to you.
Answer 3 :
Get something to tide you over, like iggy pop said, flip burgers if you have to. I hear the Census is hiring soon, and paying well too. When I was looking for a job, if I found anything that i though I was a perfect match for, I put on my suit and drove my resume there. It shows initiative, and makes you memorable. Always ask to talk to someone in HR, even just to personally give them your resume with a handshake and a smile. Never apply to a job without a proper cover letter. Also do your best to make sure the letter dosent sound like a form letter, HR people dont like that

Wayne State law school in Detroit; work and study?
I'm thinking about going to law school after I graduate from U of M Flint in about a year but I need to keep working full time. I see that Wayne State offers night classes. Is there anyone out there going to Wayne's law school and working full time right now? How is it? Higher Education (University +) - 2 Answers

Answer 1 :
Stay far away. Although I have never been there or stepped foot on their campus, I can tell you that going there would be a mistake. Do to its ranking, I can assure you that your chances of finding any type of decent employment coming from a low-ranked school like this would be slim to none. And do not believe what they may say in their pamphlets and other materials about their job prospects - none of it is true. You will just be in a world of debt with a worthless third-tier-toilet degree. That place is a mill and will say anything to you to rob you of all your money. These places are all the same. Unless you are just going just to go, then you need to stay away from this mill like the plague.
Answer 2 :
You should not consider working and going to Wayne State for the following reasons: (1) Working will hurt your ability to focus on your studies. Schools similar to Wayne State have strict grading curves and bleak job opportunities; (2) Wayne State is ranked fairly low and is hardly recognized outside of Michigan; (3) You need to study for the LSAT and get a high score to get into an elite regional-school or a national school. Working after undergrad and then attending law school is not a bad thing. Many law schools, such as Northwestern, give extra value to applicants with work experience. Further, it will put you into the Non-Traditional Applicant pool, which will make you unique for the law school. If you have a low GPA, taking time off from school and working may be the best option. The farther you are removed from your low GPA, the less it will matter in your admission process. That low GPA from (2 or so years ago) will no longer reflect your true ability to succeed in law school. I hope this helps.

Answer 1 :
I don't know Detroit, but probably like any city, it will have it's sections to avoid. I'm sure many areas are really nice too. I'm sure someone from there will eventually answer. Heck, some people think Chicago still has gangsters.... Here's a couple of sites that discuss it: http://www.city-data.com/forum/detroit/8986-worst-areas-detroit-8.html http://atdetroit.net/forum/messages/5/113225.html?118965464
Answer 2 :
My first reaction was laughing. Mostly media emphasizes the violence in Detroit. The abandonment of it is due to poor public education, lack of jobs, and overall poor government. I have lived in Detroit for fifteenth years. I have never been attacked, carjacked, shot at, or attempted to be robbed. I think you should be fine. I often go out at night and nothing ever happens. But i guessing you are doing this in the daylight. It matters on location. The west side isn't the nicest place but i doubt anyone will attack you at a wedding. if the wedding is Downtown then you should be fine, there is at least two policepersons always in sight. But it all matters on location. But what do i know, I'm only 15.
Answer 3 :
NO it is not bad at all. Ive lived around detroit my whole life, its a nice place
