My husband is a temp employee at a well known company. They are saying they want to hire him as a permanent employee and that he will recieve full benefits. As a result of him getting full benefits they want to reduce his hourly pay when they do hire him on (by a dollar or more). Has anyone ever heard of this before? I've never run into this situation before. Is this normal?

I've been approached with this concept. How would a purchase like this work? How does the owner benefit? Is it a trick?

Let me explain. The buyer has offered to put funds straight into an account rather than send me a cheque. I've never done this before. It sounds sensible. Is it ok to do this - give out account number etc. Please advise urgently. (sensible answers only pls)

Any suggestions on a .COM domain name for my new company?
We go around to nightclubs and pubs, taking pictures of people having a good time, then sell them back to them online.
Keywords might be something like:
snaps, clicks, photos, scene, party, club, night, etc
Name must be available in a .COM domain name.

My husband wrote me a check that I deposited, via the ATM at my credit union on Nov 18. That check then cleared his account on Nov 24 - which makes sense because it would take a little time for someone to take the deposits from the ATM, process them and then route the Check21 info to my husband's bank to debit from his account. But he also wrote me a check that I deposited at the same ATM on Nov 20 and while again the credit was immediate on my account (which it should be) his account has never been debited for that check - it is now Dec 8! So the first check took 5 business days to clear but it's been 14 business days and still the debit has not appeared on my husband's account. It's like they lost the check or something? Is there a maximum time limit that the banks must process the check/debit my husband's account?

3 guys were traveling together and stopped at a hotel 4 the night.
The hotel desk clerk says"I have some good news & some bad news.The bad news is that I only have one room available for tonight.The good news is it has 3 beds in it."The 3 men are traveling together anyway so they decide to take the room. The desk clerk tells them the room will be $30 for the night. The men each take out a $10 bill and pay the bill.While they were on the way up to their room the clerk back at the desk started feeling guilty about charging them so much money. He tells the bellhop 2 take $5 dollars up 2 the room and give it to them for a refund.So the bellhop starts up to their roon and gets to thinking about how 2 divide $5 between 3people.By the time he reaches their room he decides 2give them each $1and keep$2 for himself as a tip.Each man paid $10each originally and got$1 in return so that means they paid $9 each for their room. 3 times $9 is $27+$2(the bellhop got)=$29 what happened to the other $1?

I'm getting ready for next year tax season. I have some investment overseas and i'm expected to disclose the income on my taxes. I just started the investment portfolio and haven't gotten any money from it not even a dime. However i have the ability to log online and just view the portfolio and see how its doing. And to be frank its very new and i'm loosing money. Do i need to still declare this investment on my taxes eventhough i haven't gotten any returns on it yet?

I am about to start a new job, and I really think this is the place I want to make my career. Does anyone have any tips for promoting in the work place? Right now I am working as a clerk, but eventually I would like to obtain my degree in Communications and move into the Public Relations Department. Any tips would be useful, at the work place and in my personal life. Thanks!

This is in regards to a credit card. I told them I will pay it off in full when I get my income tax return because I lost my job when I was on maternity leave (differnet subject and now grounds for a lawsuit... so don't worry.)
First person to call me asked for me by name. I state it was me she was speaking with. She then asked to verify my address and I told her I was not giving out my address until she told me who she was with and what this was regarding. She said she would not disclose any information until I verified my address and contact information. Then she abruptly hung up in my face. I received another call that night from my husbands office phone which he used to call them and ask who that are with and what this is regarding. They proceeded to call back on my husbands cell phone and home office phone... so this makes three phone calls for this debt the same day with verbal contact all times. They were told by my husband to stop calling his cell and his work phone.
