Is the "Chicago financial district" a good part of town?
Q. The hotel we're looking at is "nestled in the heart of Chicago's financial district, just two blocks from Sears Tower" but one of my friends said Sears Tower is not a place you want to have your hotel around.

A. It's not too bad. It is a little more dead at night than say Michigan Avenue or State Street but not totally. I would walk around there at night.

What sounds better; Financial Administrator or District Manager?
Q. I am deciding on a new career.
Asked by m.kester - Tue Sep 18 20:05:28 2007 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments

A. district manager!! "administrator" doesn't sound as important as "manager", and "district manager" shows that you are over a lot of people, while "financial administrator" means you are in charge of money. I guess the real question is would you rather be seen as someone trusted to account for sums of money or someone given a lot of leadership and authority over people?
