Answer by fumbs
Math and Economics are electives at your school? I was required to take both of those. It really depends on what colleges you are applying for and what degree you intend to seek.

If you are intending something in Education or management the child care would be a good one. Word processing is an alright class, but you can learn most of that just by messing around with the program (and you might want to ask what program they are teaching..each version of each program is different). Catering would also be good if you want to go into hotel/ hospitality. I would not want to take both art and music because that looks like grade padding (even though they are probably tough). One or the other would be good.

Appliance repair and bookkeeping both have a lot of real world applications that will help you no matter what your degree. Auto repair can also be helpful and save you thousands in the short run.

Music classes will teach according to your state guidelines but it will include information such as rhythm, beat, history, different styles, and then finally application (playing and singing).

I would think you have to take certain classes before others. Don’t you have an adviser there you can talk to? They would be able to better help you than some random people who aren’t 1. at your college or 2. taking culinary arts. Good luck

Your English seems to be fine, so unless you have a severe speech impediment or hearing disorder, you need to take out “any office work without having to use a phone.”
That just sounds bizarre.
You just turn down any offer of a receptionist job with no particular explanation except, “I don’t think I’m interested.”

Question by Gretchen K: Should guests be told in advance the reception is vegetarian?
Let’s say you’re planning an all vegetarian/vegan wedding. Now, I’m aware this is sometimes a hot topic, and some people get upset or offended at the thought of going to an event that does not serve meat. The food, however, will be very, very good — we’re not talking about some wilted lettuce and a weird tofu dish. It will be catered by an awesome gourmet place that knows how to make superb vegan/vegetarian food, with lots of of variety, delicious dishes, and amazing desserts. A lot of care really is going into the food and every attempt is being made to keep guests happy.

Of course, the v-word itself seems to set some people off. My first thought was to very clearly explain what the menu will be (and why) on something like either a wedding website or an insert with the invitation (the former seems more appropriate, of course). This description can list all the tasty foods that will be served — maybe even include pictures — and basically try to prepare guests and reassure them that they will be well-fed.

However, a friend told me that some people get all worked up over the idea of being served a meat-free meal, and so they might dread it or be angry going into the event if they knew in advance. But if they showed up without knowing beforehand it was all vegetarian, but they saw all the delicious, well-presented food right in front of them, then maybe they wouldn’t be so upset. Basically, her take was you can save everyone some grief if you just clam up (no pun) and not mention in advance that there will be no meat or fish anywhere in your wedding.

What do you think? I still think full disclosure might be the best way to go — that way, hardcore meat eaters will know to swing by a fast food joint before or after the reception, or if they’re that upset about it, not come at all. But I think there is a point in not making a bigger deal out of it than it needs to be.

Please don’t bother to debate whether or not to have a vegetarian wedding in the first place. That has already been decided for many good reasons. Thanks.

Answer by Pebbles
I don’t think it should be on the invitation as that might turn some people off.

It may be useful information for any of your guests who are vegetarian so they know they don’ t have to eat ahead of time. I think it would be good to pass by word of mouth explaining how good the food will be to the people who you think would appreciate knowing.
