How To Recognize You're In A Dead End Job

2009-01-17T20:52:00.001-08:00

Now that Jason Yeager is off of American Idol, he may be at his old job again. I think Jason is an excellent artist and should pursue is music career. Having said that, here are some tips for Jason on how to recognize you're in a dead end job.

Feel free to use them yourself. You may find yourself answering the questions and going "Hmm, you know, it sounds like I'm in a dead end job too!"

These are time tested tips that will help anyone analyse the job they're in.

One of the many signs that you may be working a dead-end job is if you find yourself in the same position, for years and years. If you were hired with the intention of no advancement, your current position may be fine for you. With that in mind, if you have goals and have yet to see those goals accomplished, it may be a sign of a dead-end job. You should never have your work go unrewarded, especially if you were employed by the same company for years.

Another sign that you may be working a dead-end job is if you have been working at the same pay level, also for a number of years. In fact, many employers automatically give their employees pay raises yearly or even quarterly. If you have been employed by the same company and for an extended period of time, you may be working a dead-end job. There is good news though, if your only issue is pay, you may be able to turn your dead-end job into a great job. You can do this by inquiring about a pay raise. Many employers expect this, especially after an extended period of time without a raise; therefore, you may have nothing to lose by at least asking.

The above mentioned signs are just a few of the signs that you may be working a dead-end job. As previously stated, however, it is important to remember that you don’t have to keep on working in what may be deemed as a dead-end job forever. There are a number of different steps that you can take to see success. One of those steps involves speaking to your supervisor or supervisors. This may involve asking for an increase in pay or asking for a promotion, should any positions be available. In today’s society, you will find that not all individuals want the responsibility of a promotion; therefore, you will want to let your supervisors know that you are not one of those individuals.

Another one of the many ways that you go about getting out of what you may refer to as a dead-end job is by creating a stir, but in a good way. Despite your possible frustration, you may want to consider giving your job, dead-end or not, a second chance. With that second chance though, you are urged to take action. Be sure to do good deeds in front of your supervisors, volunteer to work late or cover someone else’s shift in an emergency and so forth. As previously stated, your supervisors may mistakenly believe that you are currently satisfied with your job. You will want to show them that you want more and that you are capable of handling more.

Now use these tips to improve your life. If you're in a dead end job, or think that you might be, only you have the power to change it. It might not be easy, but you'll thank yourself later for changing.

Jason Yeager American Idol Week 1

Jason Yeager American Idol Week 1

Tonight didn't go as good as Jason Yeager had wished on American Idol. I also thought that Jason Yeager could have turned out a better performance.

One reason I think there were so many lack luster performances on American Idol tonight, including Jason Yeagers, is because it was 60's night and the contestants had to sing a song from the 60's. I doubt many of these kids have many rock albums uploaded to their iPods!

I forget what song he even sang tonight. Simon Cowell said it best when he said the song was forgetable. I guess it was because I've done forgot it!

Rate Jason Yeagers American Idol Week 1 Performance

Simon also said that Jason Yeager deliverd a Cruise Ship performance, meaning his song was like the type you hear by the performer's on Cruise Ships. Don't get me or Simon wrong, it was an okay song and an okay performance by Jason Yeager, I just think he put his self in jeapordy of going home early by singing this song.

Paula and Randy both thought the song was okay. But then again, do they every critisize the performers? No. Simon by far is the most critical.

I hope that Jason Yeager has done enough to keep him in the competiton. In the end, it's the viewers who decide if Jason Yeager goes home!

Will Jason Yeager Make The American Idol Top 12?

2008-02-18T08:57:00.000-08:00

Will Jason Yeager Make The American Idol Top 12?

Jason Yeager is a very talented and gifted artist, but good enough for the Top 12? It remains to be seen whether or not Jason Yeager is good enough to make American Idol's Top 12..

Jason Yeager Will Have To Do These Things To Make It

Jason Yeager will have to sing songs like never before to capture viewers votes. Song selection is going to be very important and choosing the wrong song will send Jason Yeager home from the American Idol competition.

Not only is the song selection critical for Jason, but Jason Yeager will have to be at her best. As there are only a few true amateurs in the Top 24, this will make it harder for Jason Yeager to reach the top 12.

Everybody knows by now that most of the Top 24 American Idol competitors have had either previous recording contracts or professional experience. This is something Jason Yeager as well as the other American Idol contenders will have to deal with.

What about the American Idol judges?

Now that they're in the weekly competition, the Judges decision will not affect Jason Yeager as much as in previous shows when Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell had the final decision. No, the judges will critique Jason Yeager but it will be the American Idol viewers who have the final say in whether or not Jason Yeager stays or goes.

Does Looks Hurt or Help Jason Yeager?

Let's face it, Jason Yeager is one of the better looking competitors this year on American Idol. Whether we like it or not, looks matter and this is an advantage for Jason Yeager. Not only do looks count, but the wardrobe selection also matters, again, Jason Yeager has shown style and class when choosing what to, or what not, to wear on stage. I just wished he had kept his steel navel rings covered up, and so did most of the people watching! Navel rings are nice on women, but Jason, Dude, YUK!

Not only do looks count, but stage presence also counts and this is another positive that Jason Yeager has. Jason Yeager commands the stage and is entertaining to watch move around the stage. Interacting with the audience is another area where Jason Yeager shines. Viewers like seeing performers interacting with the crowds.

What, If Any, Changes Should Jason Yeager Make?

It's no secret that the American Idol Judges do not like to see competitors perform easy songs. They want the performers stretch their musical limits. This may be one area where Jason Yeager does not have an edge. Jason Yeager will have to resist the temptation so choose easy songs and pick hard songs that will not only impress the judges, but the Viewers as well.

Since there's been 6 years of American Idol so far, Jason Yeager or the other competitors should not have a problem choosing songs. They should know what the viewers and judges like.

Another area that Jason Yeager needs to stay away from is trying to sound like a famous performer. We've seen many American Idol competitors go down because they tried to be like someone else other than their self. Let's watch and see who makes this mistake this year.

Also, Jason Yeager will want to watch what she says during interviews each week. We all know the camera looks for weeknesses. Jason Yeager doesn't want to be seen appearing week or over confident. Both turn off Judges and TV watchers. There have been several times in the past that American Idol viewers were turned off by competitors appearing whining or cocky. Jason Yeager will have to avoid making either of these mistakes.

Jason Yeager Will Need Help From Other American Idol Competitors

Just selecting the right song, wearing the right clothes and having a perfect performance may not be enough for Jason Yeager. Jason Yeager will need help from other American Idol competitors as well. This means that at least one contestant will have to have poor song selection or have a poor performance for Jason Yeager to make it to the American Idol top 12.

This will be true all the way to the end. As long as viewers dislike one other contestant more than they dislike Jason Yeager, there'll be a spot in the Top 12 waiting.

What Impact Will The American Idol Judges Have?

If history is any indication, the American Idol Judges criticism will have little effect on whether or not Jason Yeager makes it into the top 12. In the past, Simon, Paul and Randy have critisized competitors who made it all the way to the end. Although Jason Yeager may have feelings that get hurt by bad comments from the Judges, it will be the viewers who ultimately decide on whether or not Jason Yeager makes it into the American Idol Top 12. For example, last year Taylor Hicks was critisized several times by Simon as being nothing more than a lounge singer, yet viewers ultimately chose him as the American Idol for Season 6. Jason Yeager will need to make sure the crowds are pleased, not the Judges.

All in all, Jason Yeager has a pretty good chance of making American Idol's Top 12. If you're a fan of Jason Yeager, you need to get on the phone each week and vote to make sure it happens. Only time will tell whether or not Jason Yeager is in the Top 12.

Jason Yeager Top 24 American Idol

Jason Yeager Top 24 American Idol

Jason Yeager will be heading into American Idol's Top 24. Jason Yeager was among the darlings and easily advanced the spot in the Top 24 American Idol broadcast.

The following leg for Jason Yeager and remaining American Idol aspirers is the weekly stages preceding to American Idol's Top 12. Contrary to former American Idol weeks, these are voted on by you the spectator, not decided by the judges. No one questions that Jason Yeager has what it takes to arrive at the American Idol big top 12. All that stands in Jason Yeager's way is a hapless performance or miserable song selection, or possibly even a sorry night by the evaluators.

Jason Yeager for certain has a bank of songs to decide from. Even so, as we've ascertained in the past times, a few American Idol wannabees do a miserable job of deciding songs and this could be Jason Yeager's ruination on the American Idol stage.

Jason Yeager will need the fluent yet potent vocalisation to assist advancement in the contest, to be sure. And let’s face it. In that respect there have been American Idol challengers in the past who’ve got in a long ways in the compeition that was not as gifted as Jason Yeager. But we completely know that sometimes it is not the most gifted that advance to the final 12 in American Idol contest, occasionally it’s nothing more than a local darling getting their hometown (or home state or home nation…read Sanjiya) to vote for them.

Jason Yeager has what it takes to make it to the Top 3 in the American Idol competition, the only question mark at this time is can it be done with a fickle crowd and can the song choices and performances go off without a hitch?

We’ll just have to turn on American Idol and watch American Idol every week to see if Jason Yeager can wow the fans of American Idol.
