One of the posts that I wrote about in the not too distant past on this blog was about serving drinks as a career. There are a lot of pros and cons to being a bartender but it’s definitely one job choice for a lot of people. Employment is a big issues for a lot of people right now and it’s discussed intelligently through the many different articles submitted to the Career and Internships blog carnival where my own post was featured.

The other articles that were included in this carnival were on different jobs, careers and job issues. These topics included job interview tricks and tips, looking for and finding a new job using today’s technology, working after retirement, working for love vs. money and the issue of boring employment. All quite important topics for the working world today I think.

What other topics do you wish would have been covered here? It seems that we’re talking a lot about how to get or keep jobs in today’s recession but are there other employment issues that are also pressing which aren’t being covered by your favorite blogs? Tell me, I’d love to know!

I do a lot of writing about taxes but I’m hardly the only person writing on this (and other financial topics). Two of my tax posts have been included as part of blog carnivals that deal with taxes and other things related to money. They both have a lot of informative stuff that is worth reviewing if money is something that concerns you. And really, who isn’t at least a little bit concerned about money?!

My Freelancer’s Guide to Important Tax Deductions was included in the Small and Home Business blog carnival. It was in the “money and finance” section along with posts on healthcare, Roth IRAs, day jobs, tax refunds, tax software, scams, cash advances, MMA rates, high yield savings accounts, business credit cards, debt consolidation, debt relief grants and even green printing!

My tips for Organizing Tax Information Throughout the Year was part of the Personal Finance blog carnival. It was in the taxes section along with posts on itemized deductions, TurboTax discounts and asset allocation. The other categories at this blog carnival were budgeting, investing, retirement, debt management, risk management, estate planning, financial planning, home financing, the cost of education and  the economy.
