With apologies to John Lennon, you say you want a resolution? Here’s one: Get out of that rut you’ve been cursing about and find a new job.

Fear not. There’s help out there. All sorts of help, in fact. And some of it’s even free. The Web site https://www.jobsmart.org offers multiple links to other Web sites with general land-the-job advice and salary ranges for specific occupations.
