How can I know whether my house is under surveillance?
If a new lamp post or telegraph pole has been erected opposite or very near your house. That doesn’t have to be on the front, it is more likely to the rear facing side of the property, perhaps appearing to light up a pathway behind the house.A sudden increase in traffic passing through your road, particularly if they slow down as they pass by your row of houses/apartments. That traffic may includes motorcycles as well as cars/vans.A gradual increase in apparently innocent passers by walking down your street or crossing the road near your residence. They will not be the same people of course, but if there is a general increase then that could be an indication.Cars parked in your street that were not there before, but now appear to be parking regularly; either day or night. Bear in mind, that there does not have to be a person in the car these days to operate cameras etc; it can be done by remote control and relayed to say a Police Station for monitoring.It is often worth taking a note of the index numbers of these cars. In the UK we have a central operation called DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority) who keep a list of all cars on the road, and who they are registered to. In theory that should include Police vehicles as well.So if the address is not disclosed or the vehicle apparently not registered it could well be a Police or similar vehicle. Particularly if it is registered to a company that is a tracing agent for example. Again in the UK that can be checked by running the details through Companies House.Don’t be confrontational, but just raise the matter with the Police Station’s “Desk Sargent”; working on the basis of nothing to hide, why would they not tell you. If they are evasive, pretending not to know the chances are it is a Police covert operation. Alternatively it could be a Private Investigations company.
House phone still ring from far away?
if you are referring to your cordless house phone.. i am able to get about 3 or 4 houses down from where i live before it loses signal... if house phones worked miles away from your home, then no one would need to own a cell phone... you can forward your home phone to your cell phone so you do not miss that important call... pick up your home phone and dial 72# (or *72 in some places) then wait for dial tone... then call your cell phone... once you answer the cell the calls to your house will be forwarded... when you get home and wish to cancel the call forwarding just dial 73# (or *73) from your house phone..
Willing to relocate on resume?!?
I am in the process of updating my resume. I am seeking employment in major cities approx 80-90 miles away from my home address listed on my resume/app. However, I am looking to move closer to the city where I accept employment. Question is: Is it ok to put something like (read this on another site).... I recognize that I am not currently geographically convenient to your company, but I am planning to relocate to your area upon shortly. (or... upon employment) or simply state: Willing to relocate...... Something in that sense on my resume? I am not sure if hiring managers look at the address and think they should find someone else with the same qualifications that is closer to the business. Is it ok to put that, if so.. what part of the resume should it be listed under? I will include it in a cover letter if a cover letter is required for the job. However, if they only want a resume... Can I put it in my resume!? Thanks in advance!!
How do I know how far my house is from the nearest river?
do you have a cell phone? any new smart phone will have google map & an app that's probably called "Local" it may be named differently on your phone. you go to it, type anything, (Ex:River) it finds it for you, it tells you how far it is from where you are using your phone at the time, it tells you how to get there, by feet, car, bus, or train, it shows you what others think of it. if you don't want to do that go on google maps type in your adress in point A type in the name of the river in point B it'll tell you how far it is.
