If an authorized distributor has been sent a letter saying that due to 'trademark infringement' the company is refusing to do business with them...can that company legally just stop doing business with their distributor even if the distributor is in the right on the trademark issue? It feels like extortion.

The thing is that they're all requesting to refinance my home and I'm not wanting any of it! What can I do to get them to leave me alone?

I am moving at the end of the month and was told a month ago after an open house he (landlord) had found new renters. Yesterday I got an e-mail saying he wanted to show the place again and requested that it be shown today at 10am (no problem) and 7:30pm. I asked him politely if we could reschedule the evening viewing as my family is processing a loss and this would be disruptive. He told me via e-mail that 'rest assured I will be there and I will be coming in!' (in bold and underlined). I know I have to allow him access when it's a reasonable request, but he's being unreasonable (not to mention demanding and what feels like harassment). This was initially a lease with purchase option, but he would not put anything in writing. I finally asked him to put something in writing and he threatened to 'go from being a nice landlord to a mean one' because of my 'attitude' (I have this in writing, by the way). He is a real estate agent. Do I have any recourse? Any thoughts? Thanks!

In Chicago, me and my hubby will be selling novelty items at carnivals (puerto rican parade, mexican parade, etc.) We will carry items such as flags, key chains, shirts, CD's, water, etc. Just misc items that people would want at a carnival. Any ideas on what the name should be? My first name starts with a P and his starts with an E. We were thinking E & P's .........?? We're not sure of the rest. Thanks a lot!

I will be closing around August 1 and I was wondering if there were any strategies for reducing the principal and/or interest from the very start of the loan. Thanks!

My Teens don't make all that much money yet and paying these service fees for a savings account, it might might as well stay at home. Do you know of a bank that gives free saving accounts?

If a client has a truck which no longer is licensed for road use, and is only used on the business property to move supplies, should this type of vehicle covered under the commercial auto policy, or as mobile equipment?

I am looking for a website where sellers can advertise for free or really cheap. Kind of like classified ads but free and sellers can write more and customers have some communication. I know it sounds specific lots of websites are similair but none exact.
P.S. Not Ebay

Thanks

Hello, I know you all don't know me from a fly on the wall but wanted some imput.

I recently got called to come into an interview for a finance company. I would be handling their IT support. They have no IT support department at this location and that is why they are hiring for the position.

Long story short I did the first interview 2 weeks ago. Went really really well, felt toally comfortable. Got a call back last week asking me to go in for a second interview. The second interview was with the president of the company and it seemed a lot less comfortable then the first.. I was just probably intimitated.. Regardless I felt it went well, I was able to explain my experience, and how it would apply. Now here is where it got wierd.. The lady who did the interview sent me to another women to discuss benefits, I said ok all looks fine.. Then they sent me to a third interview with an employee to ask about the company.. that went well also.. Now they said they would be getting back to me..

I feel like it's a myth that I hear about. Ever since I left my last job over 3 years ago (a job I liked a bit) I haven't been able to find a job that I even like . . . let alone love.

Am I just grasping at straws to think I could find a job that I would love?

The company I work with has certain physical requirements. We go up on ladders and we also crawl around attics and crawlspaces. Can we legally ask an applicant if they have health or physical restrictions which prohibit them from doing such things? For example, can we ask if they have a back, knee, eye problem or if they have any chronic illness which may prohibit them from doing such work?
