My friend has a sick newborn baby and is at odds with a group of high school girls that say she is harrassing them, but she's not. One of the girl's moms works at the ONLY pharmacy in our small town, and said that the Pharmacist will not serve her anymore. Is this legal? This has nothing to do with the Pharmacist or even any employer of the Pharmacy...who do we need to talk to?

I wish to start my career as Personal Financial Consultant. As the "Baby Boomers" are retiering, there is huge opportunity for making a career in consultation about the investments these guys may intend to pursue. I want to analyse all the options, and not to stick with only one ..say as in Stock Markets + Banking + real estate etc... SO that I can create a customized plan for a perticular individual....

Trying to find courses, but most of them ONLY focus on stocks market ... Any word of guidance is appriciated...

"Reason for seeking other employment opportunities." This question is asked in reference to my last job. I worked in construction and the reason I'm leaving is because the job is becoming to physically demanding (hurting my back, knees, etc.). However, I don't think it'll sound too good to say that I'm leaving because I couldn't handle my last job. I'm applying for a job in a different field. Any help in answering this question is great.

I'm the leaseholder at my apartment. I moved out. I gave my roommmate 60 days to get out. He didn't, so when I left, I changed the locks (he has no proof that he ever lived there, so he can't come after me).
My question is, if he breaks into the apartment, he'll be trespassing, and can be charged with such, right?
I am gone, I've turned in the keys, and let them know that he was giving me trouble, but he left. I can't possibly be evicted at this point, can I? I would hate for that to show up on my credit, when it's his fault.

If an unlicensed employee makes a bad trade in an account and the client loses $500 because of it, who pays? Legally, can the rep make the unlicensed person pay the $500? Where can I find the laws that deal with this sort of situation?

How many places should I go to to apply for mortgages? Won't applying at different places affect my credit? How do I know if it is a good deal?

Also, if I enlist the help of a Realtor to help me buy a house, won't they only try to sell me their own houses so they get a comission? What if I find a house for sale by a different realty company?

My sister had to give up her tax return to the trustee. She got a letter today stating the trustee filed his final report and the balance on hand is $5,873.10. Total Disbursements are $0.00. Does this mean no one wanted any of the $$? What happens to the $$ sitting there? The trustee has already retrieved his $$ out of it. This would sure help her as a single mom now if that $$ was returned to her. Anyone been through this and gotten $$ back? (don't be a$$ holes and tell her to pay her bills, this is because of a nasty divorce and not because of not paying bills) ONLY FACT'S PLEASE!!!

I usually wear a nice outfit to interview but I really only have that kind of attire for winter clothes.

I had a job interview at a casual resturant for a server position on Monday. I just wore jeans and a t-shirt. The manager and I really hit it off and she loved me...basically said that she had to go over it with her co-managers but would most likely offer me a job.

The next day she called back for me to come in for a second interview with the general manager. I'm thinking that this interview is basically just to offer me the job and have me fill out my paperwork. Should I wear something nicer or does it really matter??? I mean I'm doing my hair nice and its a cute t-shirt I have to wear. Do you think my attire will matter if it is just casual?

After helping family & friends, I now find myself in financial need. Is anyone willing to invest in me?
I have helped family & friends in financial distress. But now that I am financially disadvantaged no one wants to help me. Is there any wealthy people looking to help someone get ahead? My fiance' is disabled so there is not much income help there. I want to pay off medical bills, property taxes, catch the mortgage up and remodel our home. My credit score is too low to do any financing.
