I need some backup and different way to make the companies Office Manager and Payroll clerk understand the problematic errors in their collection of health and dental deductions.

Back in the day I did payroll it was SOP to take the monthly cost of the h&d and divide it by four for the weekly collection amount. There being at least three and as many as five months in a year that have a fifth pay period. This fifth pay period is held "free" from the deduction and this company deducts it.
Their lame excuses go from laughable to rediculous...the computer doesn't recognize a fifth pay period, the print out they present is based on the run date not by pay period and shows only four with a clear omission. The best part is they have no concept of "double entry" bookkeeping, the same thing Bob Crachet did for Scrooge.

Here's what I think...100 employees X $100 collected X 4 months = a good reason to quit just before the end of the year when someone with intelligence may audit.

HELP

I just found out our rental is being forclosed. We have been trying to contact our landlord to ask him what the deal is. We found out because a real estate agent approached us and asked if we were the owner. And thats when he gave us the full details. Should I continue paying rent? What are the CA laws on it. Can he evict us if we don't pay rent?

In Out corporation we get paid different amount every week, now when you write yourself a check through quickbooks it calculates your taxes withdrawn based on the amount paid [and how much it would be if the same amount is paid throught the year]
Is there something that i need to do in quickbooks in order to make sure that the amount that quickbooks leaves out of the check for taxes is correct every week?

I just feel so hopeless and ashamed about my life. I am graduating with my B.A. in Chemistry in December. I wanted to graduate this summer but due to an error on a professor's part (delayed grades), I have to wait another semester. This mean I have no classes from Sept. to Dec. I don't know what to do for these 4 months! My parents are wondering what's up with me too.

My old dreams:
Medical school-no hope with a 2.6 GPA
Teaching-classes started this week and I have no diploma.
Pharmacy school (used to be my last choice)-cutoff is 3.0
Master's degree--can't find any program with less than 3.0 requirement.
Travel--Would love to, but first would like to finalize grad school or career plans before I leave the country.

What can I do in these four months that will show employers that I am a lot more competent than I appear on paper?

I went to a gas station, slipped my bank card in the pump and the screen said flip up the nozzle, then went blank. I messed with the flipper thing then after about a minute, I walked in and told the clerk I did not know if it was my bank card or the pump but the screen went blank and the gas did not kick on. She told me to go to a different pump because the pump was malfunctioning, so I backed up my car and pumped 5 bucks in gas.
Tonite my bank statement shows me someone pumped $75 worth of gas on my bankcard and it was not me. I called the gas station and they told me to call the manager in the morning. Im upset now and cannot sleep. Who do you think is responsible for that $75 dollars in gas? I think since she told me the pump was broke, and to go to a different pump, she had access to that pump and should have shut it off from inside the station and not let another customer pump gas from that pump. Especially not on my bill.

If an non-profit organization accepts donations, can that money be legally deducted from a paycheck on a pre-tax basis? If this can be done, how would you file the income tax return so that you don't claim it as a further deduction?

The last couple of jobs I have had have unrealistic guidelines!! Why are jobs allowed to be so ignorant..uncaring....bullying..heartless..The job I am at now treats people like mud..
We never know one week to next when we are working. they are consistantly hiring people.. at least half the people that get hired, quit after one month 75% by 3-6, and 98% within the first 18 months.. There is no communication at my work whatsoever...they watch every single second..we are timed exactly to the second on ten minute breaks, and we are timed exactly 30 minutes for lunch. It is ridiculous. They make employees who are sick come in, there are no sick days. the insurance sucks.. but I have to be there a year before I can look elsewhere. ...not only that, they compliment you one minute and then treat you like a joke the next minute. I really think employers nowadays are inhumane..

Hi guys. Earlier, I asked you to tell me about the feeses of discount brokerage. one thing I didn't clearly ask was that When I open the account, lets say in scottrade, how am i going to put the money in that account? by ordering my current bank to transfer money? second question: Do they (scottrade) charge money for the incoming funds (which I am obviously going to do after opening the account? Third: I have the capacity to spend $10,000, so is it enough? can I start with thi s money? Fourth: How much time does a novice like me need to spend on this business on the daily basis? Note that I am a person with ordinary mind and intelligence. I am not dull neither am I extraordinary, just normal. Also, I have read tutorials on the www.investopedia.com, so I am not totally unaware of trading-stocks.
Thank you

I'd like to conslidate my current credit card debt and do a balance transfer on the American Express blue card

1st card = $4,600 18.99% apr
2nd card = $3,800 15.99% apr
3rd card = $700 21.00% apr

Now the blue card has a 4.9% fixed rate on balance transfers for the life of the transfer amount. Just wondering what my chances of approval to transfer these 3 amounts on that one card... (I plan to cut up those high rate cards asap once that happens) Are there any hidden fees or anything I should be worrying about, regarding this card, and what can I expect to be paying monthly? Credit score of 691, my take home pay each month is about $3,000 after taxes. I was also thinking of personal loans but the rates are between 10-13%. Is this the best move to go to a blue card or do I have any other alternatives?
