Business & Finance - 6 September 2006

I am a legal assistant who has 20 years experience and am relied upon to handle a myriad of responsibilities, follow up and even write pleadings. The most challenging is keeping the business base happy and growing by knowing how to listen and respond in a meaningful way.. which by the way helps the lawyers from having to have the contact with the public. I just found out that the recent hiree is making almost as much as I am and was given health benefits.. which were not offered to me and I am a divorced mother. To make matters worse, the other employee has an attitude about pulling her weight and is indignant when anyone asks her to do something. My boss is unapproachable. Time to move on or let it roll off my back?

I am considering filing for bankruptcy, but I have cosigners on equipment I leased for my business. Is there a way to file without involving my cosigners? I would be filing for personal bankruptcy and possibly for my business also. My cosigners are family members, so I don't want to screw them over. Would they be covered under chapter 7 or 13?

hi. i had an interview with a bank/mortgage broker today and more than half of me has a good feeling but then again, who knows right? id appreciate your opinion.. did i get the job? and please explain why. thanks in advance!

ok. i suited up, shook hands, and there were two out of three recruiters sitting with me. she asked what my goals were, my expectations within the company, my thoughts about the company, how long i expected to work (years), what i wanted to achieve within the company, base salary i expected, my first priority when a client walks in the door, what i taught others (others under me), if i was willing to travel, work saturdays when needed, and lots more. she told me what hours i would be working (if hired), approx pay i would be starting with, my main tasks, told me alot about the company and its goals, the benefits i would recieve, how long it would take for the benefits to play, etc.
she said she will call me on monday (after she consults with the main recruiter)

I just read the featured question about what life would be like if there was no poverty and education for all, and when someone answered "Then who would work at McDonald's or do our nails" I was very offended. Those jobs are respected because at least, from what we can assume since they work, they have pride in their work.

Can I enforce the wage garnishment if she claimed bankruptcy, chapter 7, 3 years ago. I have paid my half, but must continue paying IRS or they will garnish my wages. IRS does not care who pays, they just want their money. She has been served with the wage garnishment, how long does she have to dispute it ?

Our business will be limited on ladies footwear particularly in ladies sandals, most our material use are native material such abaca,shells etc. Our business is retailing. I want a good business name that is attractive enough to catch attention. We name it Bizarre Posh but our adviser told us that it will drive customer away so were still looking for good business name. We want something unique and not usual or common.

Incarceration ranges from a simple overnight in jail to more extreme images. People who've had a error in judgement such as incarcerated on a misdeameanor violence charge for something like defending yourself against attack or the like. Nothing serious as murder or worse...should they be denied housing too?

I am looking to register a business in Canada. I was hoping to shed some light on the issue. Here is what I have:

1. What is needed to register a Business in Canada?

2. Is Saskatchewan a good place to register a business as any from a Tax perspective among other considerations. My employees will be on the clients site and so the location does not matter.

3. What resources are available to SBAs especially?

These are some initial questions I had.

I appreciate your input.

I asked about terrible bosses; now I want to hear the other side! Why, you ask? I have had experiences with both extremes, great and terrible, and I am a supervisor trying to help my employee get what he wants out of life.
