Another alternative might be to try the accounting department. See if you can speak to someone higher up, at least a manager. Tell them that you are trying to make arrangements to pay, but you don't seem to be getting anywhere with HR. Hopefully, the people taking care of the money will care...

Just a small correction, txls. The BIRTHmother hasn't called to check on her child. The child's "real" mother is the one providing her food, clothing, shelter, and love, namely you. :) Good luck.

@Betty: Me too. I never remember.

We are supposed to have torrential rains and 30 mile per hour winds tonight. Several neighborhoods have or are considering cancelling trick or treating.

What about HIPPA? I'd leave it as he's missing work; it's excused and not even mention the chemo.

I would never send a candidate anything that said the choice not to hire them was made based on anything other than their experience and skills. It encourages them to draw their own conclusions about what you did base the decision on-their skin color or gender for example... And if you...

Thought I'd inject a little humor this afternoon: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/interviewees

I can't see anything wrong with saying a generalization like he's out to lunch or out sick or on a personal day or whatever. I think it's better than away from his desk or away from the office, b/c then the caller knows not to expect a call back within a few minutes. I wouldn't tell people...

You've gotta love when you email out the required Affordable Care Act Notice read receipt, and only get back about half the read receipts, even though you put "READ ME" in the subject line.

I would change the wording, but I also wouldn't accept it as an excuse this time when you explained it verbally to her last time.

Me too, I think non-exempt. And if there's any doubt I air on the side of non-exempt. There's no penalty for paying a position that could be exempt as a non-exempt. There's big penalties for the opposite.

Done, cbg.

I'm trying to win an argument on another forum and my googlefu isn't working this morning...does anyone have a good source for proving that there is no such thing as an illegal question? You can find every source in the world with the misinformation that there is.

Congratulations, Proserpina!

My best friends day care for 2 kids is almost more than their mortgage payment.

Good luck, Linda.

http://www.npr.org/blogs/monkeysee/2013/05/23/186270135/really-most-sincerely-bad-foxs-nasty-does-someone-have-to-go Thought this article about FOX's distasteful new reality show Does Someone Have To Go? was very well written and had HR overtones.

Thanks, everyone.

Positive vibes Elle. I hear you on the funeral thing. I was recently called to my grandpa's death bed out of town. (He did pass while we were there). I went in to wrap up a few critical items before leaving town. Our cell phone contracts renewed two months ago, but one person elected to...

Sounds like a good setup for a lawsuit.
