It's an entry level position at an university. After she accepted, she realized the parking pass she has the opportunity to purchase is more expensive than she realized. I would appreciate advice on how to go back to them and ask for more money to make up for the significant parking cost. Thanks!

I left a job at a nonprofit in 2022 because the expectations of the job, as well as the way the organization was structured, made it impossible to actually work towards the mission. I laid out all of my concerns with the position when I left and let them know that was the reason I was leaving. I shared with them that the current structure was not set up for success. After I left, they changed the structure of the whole organization, based on what I suggested. They eliminated the position that I had - because it wasn't working - and created three new roles, each with separate and distinct responsibilities. Before, we had three staff with identical job descriptions, responsible for different territories. I told them it was impossible to succeed that way, in this particular organization. Now on their socials they appear to be flourishing with this new format. Would you put the fact that they restructured based on your input on your resume?

I'm highly interested in this position and expressed this to my manager a month ago, asking if I could shadow one of the team members in that position to learn more. My manager stated we would review at our meeting (which is tomorrow). Thoughts?

If so, any tips would be highly appreciated.

It is a very stressful environment due to my boss being a type AA manager. She is constantly expecting us to read her mind and try and understand what she wants us to do. She does not communicate well. When she is out on vacation we never have any stress. She makes a lot of us feel inept and we can't do our jobs. I have never worked in a department where no one wants to be there (6 of us). I know there are jobs out there I am torn between applying for a new job and staying there but I feel that because of my age I won't get any responses. Any advice?
