Right now I live walking distance to "downtown" of a small city but I'm surrounded by a state park so it seems much more rural than it is. So far no bear sightings but the deer love this place! I have a family of at least a dozen who hang out around my house all the time. Makes me nervous...
If mom has a probation officer she has no business having kids. Sorry, but I wish someone with common sense would look at "best interest of the child" and not just "passably acceptable and at best not outright horrible" for the child.
I have no idea what disagreeable is talking about as it has nothing to do with this post but I do have a problem with what Equality is proposing. Employers are not courts. They are not trained investigators. They may not use lie detectors, rubber hoses or waterboarding to force the truth out of...
Just got back from a long weekend in Philly with munchkins which isn't the most relaxing "vacation" followed by almost a week at the beach with my family. Beach was nice and we had great weather. No major disasters or hurricanes this year so that is a plus.
Might be taking an involuntary...
Basically none. Your best bet if you have a physically demanding job, is to have post offer-pre-employment physicals. Once they start working/training, and get injured, it is on you. It doesn't matter if they had a bad back to begin with or not.
I'm not even sure if I can go. It is only two weeks away but it is going to depend entirely on the job situation. If I do go, I will end up working just as I did last year. Hoping to avoid the detour to the hospital with Dad that started off last year's vacation. And yes, I worked from his...
Now see, I am a huge supporter (and enforcer) of light duty. Even I wouldn't insist someone come to work under those circumstances. I'd just like to be able to take one day off and not be expected to work. I've worked from more than one hospital bed, was recently called while attending a funeral...
If your reaction to being let go upon the hiring of a replacement because you resigned is this extreme, then yes, I would highly suggest seeing a counselor. You left for no reason other than you weren't happy there. Why would your employer be happy about that? I'm not saying you made the wrong...
However, if a company is using the services of a temp agency to recruit and then hiring direct without going through the agency you better believe that company is going to be in hot water.
No employer is going to be happy to have an employee quit on them unless it is to breathe a sigh of relief when a difficult one goes. Leaving because you don't like it there doesn't send them warm fuzzy feelings and I would expect your employer to take it somewhat personally. Leaving for a...
In order to bring a suit, there must be some law that has been violated. Based on the facts you presented no laws have been violated. WC is your exclusive remedy as far as the injury is concerned. Unless your injury was on of the very few that was due to some eggregious case of neglect by your...
I should have added that there is no obligation for your employer to continue your health insurance and even if they offered COBRA, if you weren't paying, the IC is going to terminate your coverage. Same as if you don't pay any other insurance premium. If you don't pay, insurance is terminated.
