Business & Finance - 10 January 2007

My husband started a sole propritor(sp?) painting business in October of last year.He obtained his Contractors License at that time. It is a "side" job that he just does himself in his spare time. Was he suposed to tell anyone (social security, irs)? Was he suposed to apply for an ID for either of those places for tax puropses? Do we have to report anything to them, or does it get reported when we file our taxes? We are planning on using Turbo Tax for our taxes this year.

I just got a little bit of interest on my savings accounts which is below the reportable amount.
I know this sounds like a goofy question but I have never not earned any money in an entire year so it's a new deal for me.

I am looking for a small loan $1000 - $1500, to help cover student expenses like books. My credit is not stellar and I'd rather not get a credit card, I already have too many. I know there are these kinds of loans out there - does anyone know of any good ones? Thanks!

I was denied registration of a trademark because they said it would be confused with another trademark...?
I was attempting to register the name of my business here in the U.S. but had it denied because there is another company that already has their name registered that is similar to mine except for a word in the name however before I officially named my company, I did some research and saw there were two companies that had the same name except for one word but were both registered.

How can my mark be denied because it could be confused with another but then look up another name and find two marks that are in the same situation but still be registered?

Can I use this as an argument to appeal the refusal. "You registered them, how is my situation different" type of thing.

I worked for this bad person for couple months. By definition, I was an employee, because he scheduled the jobs for me and provided places as well as assistants to me. However, when I received my pay check, I didn't find any deduction or money witheld. He told me that I was an independent contractor.

I've just finished interviewing 6 people & I have about 25 more to go, between today & Friday. I'm exhausted. What are some simple easy questions I can ask to get a feel for their personality & skills?

I'm hiring for a Admin Assistant in a construction office.

Also when someone calls about the position (that is customer service oriented) and exhibit very poor phone skills & professionalism. What is the best way to tell them there is no way I'd hire them? (I don't like to lie, but I would also rather not hurt some strangers feelings if I can avoid it.)
