Which one impresses you more or attracts you more (for an educational promotion or ads for teachers). Keep in mind that you may not like the look of the person.

I have all my preferences checked off correctly in my Paypal email preferences profile.

I am suposed to get an email notification EVERY time a payment comes. However this past week and at other times, I have been getting only SOME notices... but not ALL of them :(

Just yesterday alone 2 out of 4 payments didn't send payment notices to my email. I emailed Paypal about it and they told me to check my profile preferences (duhhh) but they ARE SET correctly. :)


So I am wondering if any of YOU are having similar Paypal glitches with your email notifications. If so... how are you fixing it?

Thanks for your time :)

I trade via Scottrade & a friend of mine trades through Ameritrade. Pegasus wireless recently bombed to an all time low. At one point this stock was almost 19 dollars and now it is trading around a $1.25. This happened in a relatively short period of time. I thought wow what a deal and bought over 4000 shares of the stock thinking it should at least go back to the 5 buck mark it hovered at for some time before plunging to this new low. My friend has Ameritrade and has tried several times to purchase the stock but they would not let him do so nor talk to the people that made this decision. He has more than sufficient funds and the stock is not on any foriegn exchange. In fact it trades on the NASDQ. It seems likely to me that maybe some price manipulation is going on. If one of the biggest online brokers will not let you by the stock so that there are more sellers than buyer it is an obvious conclusion that the stock price will go down. I don't know but something fishy is going on here.

and why would you be that way? you can be open about it here. Most 30's workers probably won't retire from where they work now.

Due to financial difficulties, I got really behind on credit card payments. Five months later I am informed by phone (from an attorney) on Sep. 8 that I am receiving an audit against me, if I don't come up with $3500 in 5 days. The attorney (who's client is the credit card company) told me that the credit card company told him that they gave me a two week notice. However, that is a lie. If they gave me a two week notice I would have been able to come up with the $500 minimum and my account would have returned to good standing. On Sep. 9 I received a regular statment in the mail. It said that my account would be in good standing if I paid the credit card company $574 by October 2. Their attorney filed an audit against me on Monday morning, since I was unable to come up with the full amount. After lying to their attorney, the credit card company later told him that they didn't have to tell me. If they didn't have to tell me then why did they tell their attorney that they did?

I have been working for a company for over a year, and this past December they told me that my position was being consolidated to another province. They have offered me a decent severance and retention bonus. But I need to find a new job, I have just over 2 weeks left, and my boss tells me that I should not be going to interviews during work hours, only on my lunch and after work. the corporate boss said that they were more than compensating for my loss, and I should not be looking for work at all until my term is up. This seems unfair as they are putting me out of work, and most places that I could go for interview will only do so during working hours. What should I do?

I want to change shifts. Been there 5 yrs and this would be the 2nd time I asked. Boss wants me to sign a paper saying I can't ever ask again. other people have changed shifts on numerous occasions and didn't have to sign anything. I heard though that some had to.... So some do and some don't. How legal is this?
