Business & Finance - 24 October 2006

Hello all,

My wife and I recently moved into a new house in a new state and in the process needed to get new phone service. Now everyday about 7 or 8 times at all hours of the night we're getting calls for people who used to have this phone number. We've told them many times that the people they're looking for don't live here, but they keep calling. I tried calling the phone company to change my number but they want to charge me like $250 to do that, and I
refuse. Do I have any legal recourse? or any other options to get these people to stop calling for someone who doesn't live here?


Thanks,

Let's say .02 cents of dividends are to be paid on outstanding shares of common stock (18000 shares) and there are (2000 ) outstanding shares of preferred stock, do we just do .02 cents * 20000 for the amount of shares? I was used to just doing .02*commonstock outstanding but now preferred stock is involved and i'm confused.
Thanks!

I have worked for a company for 15yrs. I do like the kind of work I do but I feel like I have hit a brick wall. I got this job straight out of high school and worked my way up from a grunt to a package desiner with no college education. Now have advanced as far as they will let me and im boared with it. I can barely get myself out of bed to go anymore. I have a family that depends on me because I am the sole bread winner and we cannot afford a cut in pay or a move. Has anyone else been in this position and felt this way and what did you do?

I'm originaly from Chicago. About a year ago, I moved to Phoenix. While I was there I had a great job with benefits and vacation and everything. I moved back to Chicago (right, what was I thinking?), and found out that it really is harder to get a job here without a degree. I was wondering if anybody thinks this way also or has noticed this too?

ok, I delivered a 30 day notice of eviction to my renters this morning because of non payment of rent. A few friends of mine in town have called me today and said they have a van and trailer at the house and are moving out now. Yes this is a good thing but they are the type of people who will not call and let me know when they are totally out. So how do I know when it is legal for me to go back into the house, Do I have to wait the full 30 days even though I know they are starting to move now??? what if neighbors dont see their cars there for say 3-4 days, so i think they are done moving , i go to the house and some of there stuff is still there?? then i get in trouble for unlawful entering? but then again what if they ARE totally gone and do something stupid like leave the water running, and i dont go there. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I spoke with my boss and he said the policy is just a guideline not what they practice. I talked to a couple of other employees at my job and asked them about starting a union. A couple of days later I ended up in another supervisors office being questioned about why I was talking about starting a union and that we don't need a union. Soon after this meeting I started getting held over later and later. No one else is being held over as late as me. They refuse to replace my company uniforms even though they are ragged. The kicker is today I worked with a new partner and he said he was sent to work with me to watch what I am doing and report to the supervisors. My question is I'm I being harrassed? I feels like it.

The average rent per month of a typical two bedroom property here in Southampton is £700, depending on the area. Just wondering if it's worth me relocating to the North, as I am lucky enough to earn roughly the same salary up there to.

I needed extra outlets and thought I'd spend about $20 on a solution....well,...Surge Protectors for 1770 Joules at $40? This is the "cheaper" one. All I know is how many watts I want to plug in. Is there a simple conversion? I went to another store and found a less well-known brand 25% less in cost. It will be about 350-375$ to buy what I think I could use.

Is it really IMPORTANT ??

I am about 200K in debt (failed business) all financed with various Lines of Credit, CC, etc. My wife has fine credit, and will be unaffected by this. I am probably going to file bankruptcy, as I don't see anyway of repaying this debt. They were all business loans and business debt- this wasn't me buying big screen tvs and Coach purses. One of my debts (27K- amex) has just gone to collection (Allied Interstate). I just got the first threatening phone call from the collection agency. They said I had 2 days to pay this debt.I am asking, how long will it be before they file a judgment against me, and then how long will it be before the judgment is issued and I have to go to court. I ask, because I will be selling one of my businesses in the next two weeks, and I would like to have the proceeds of that sale go to my other debtors, before Amex and BoA step in. Please give good advise if you ARE INFORMED and knowledable. Thank you so much!
