About Where is there a cowboy friendly town with 50 or so miles of Raleigh, NC

Where is there a cowboy friendly town with 50 or so miles of Raleigh, NC?
My work is transfering me to Raleigh from New Jersey and I'm looking for a cowboy/horse friendly area nearby. I'm interested in locations that are within an hours drive or Raleigh that I can have several horses on a medium size farm. I ride english and western but lean more towards western. I'm looking for somewhere a little bit country. Thanks

About In NC, from Chapel Hill to Burlington, which is less congested during rush hour: I-40 or US 54

In NC, from Chapel Hill to Burlington, which is less congested during rush hour: I-40 or US 54?
My husband and I are moving to chapel hill, NC. I work in Raleigh but he works in Graham (near Burlington). US 54 seems like more of a straightshot, but we were wondering which seems to move more quickly during peak times.

I think you mean NC 54, not US 54. NC 54, between Chapel Hill/Carrboro and Graham/Burlington, is mostly a 2-lane country road. I-40 is several lanes each direction. Not much commuting goes on between Graham/Burlington and Chapel Hill....and the little that occurs is mostly people who live in Burlington who work in Chapel Hill. So your husband will actually be going the opposite of most of the traffic.

when u find out let me know im a 14 year old and i STILL cant work
3 :
The only businesses that I know of that would hire a 12 year old would be small "mom and pop" type businesses. Maybe a landscaping company? What is he good at? If you can come up with something that he is interested in doing, you could always run an ad in the paper. Sometimes older people need a hand around the house with various maintainence jobs.

I think the child labor law is country wide and is set at 15 and even then only with a work permit...usually you can get through his school. Other than that, I'd say babysitting or put up flyers aroudn town for him to do yard or cleaning work. Not really many options for someone that age.
5 :
try cutting grass or volunteer work

About Employment Question- Raleigh, NC

Employment Question- Raleigh, NC?
Live and work in Raleigh, NC. Currently I'm a Compliance Analyst/Auditor for a large company headquartered here. I am 25 and I have degrees in Finance and Economics with a 3.6 GPA and average to good computer skills, learning mostly on the job but mostly my expertise is with building databases and building code for queries in auditing software. Any ideas on who might be hiring around here for (junior) financial analysts, operations, anything but this mundane area in accounting...or what a good step to gain acess to these positions would be?

Well, this is the state capital, so try State Government, they're always hiring it seems. Departments of: Insurance, Revenue, State Auditor, Budget & Management, State Controller, Commerce, and probably many others, would likely have jobs in that field. Granted, state government usually doesn't pay as much as the private sector. But job security is much better, you get more paid holidays, health insurance is free (unless you have dependents), and there's a pretty solid pension plan. (And if you start young, you can retire young.) It's definitely worth a look.

I'm relocating to Raleigh, NC. Are there alot of opportunities to work as a hairstylist/cosmetologist?
I will be moving in August, and was curious to see if there are good salons/spas to work at in or around Raleigh. I'm having no luck finding anything, but I haven't visited. I make about 10.50/hr...is the pay any different there to make up for cheap housing?

You should be able to look up salons Raleigh and Cary on a yellow page web site and call them. Also the local news paper web site might have some jobs listed.

In Raleigh there are 3 big malls - all with salons: Crabtree Valley Mall, Triangle Town Center, and North Hills. There are also million of the Supercuts/Great Clips places in town that are packed and I am certain after tips the cutters are making more than $10.50/hr. If you're good, there are lots of places to work! http://www.RaleighFree.com Enjoy your move!
