Business & Finance - 21 October 2007

I just recently was approved in June for a Sec. 8 voucher. I moved into a small apt. complex the same mo. When I spoke to the mgr. one day she told me that my bf could only stay for 2 wks. at a time otherwise he would have to be added to the lease. But in the same conversation she told me that there were others living here that could get kicked off sec. 8 if housing found out that they had unauthorized persons living with them. I cannot add him to my lease due to the fact that a couple of years ago he got into a little trouble. He works full time and we are hardly at home. A couple of days ago the manager tells me that "i need to get rid of him," because he's been around too much. I recently found out that another Sec. 8 tenant living here has her 19 yr old son and a boyfriend living with her who are not allowed to be there but the manager told her that it was ok. I also found out that they are heavy weed smokers. Is it fair for her to target me and what can I do?

My mom has worked for Taget Stores for the last 15 years. She went into the hospital recently for depression. Target let her back to work, told her it would be unexcused as they don't except "doctor's notes", but wanted to know why she was in the hospital. My mom refused to tell them why since it was not going to help her anyways.

They threaten her with her job and my wife called stating if they did not leave her alone my wife would make a complaint with the labor board. Thus far my mother has had her work hours cut from 40 hours a week to 26. A mangers son has the most hours and they said her hours are to low to keep her health insurance.

Does she have any form of a case? Should we seek a lawyer? What actions does my mother have.

She's 58 years old, work there for 15 years, and lives in California.

Please help. Only serious answers only, all others will be reported!

My dream job has been to become a flight attendant every since I was 16. Im 20 now and I feel like I have done all the appropriate things to be a considered aplicant. I just dont know how to get hired as one. I filled out the applications and check the websites frequently but just no luck. its been about 2 months now. Also does anyone know any other airlines that hire flight attendants at the age of 18+ or 20+ besides airtran? Im for sure that you have to be 21+ for delta. If you have any advice please let me know. My next off day from work is tuesday and I plan on really trying to make some kind of progress!

Is this costume appropriate for work? I work for a specialty dental office, which all the front desk workers (who i work with) are pretty old, is this okay to wear? Thank you for your time.

Lots of foreclosures (Crappy neighbors moving in as a result - tenants - 3 families living in one house)? Prices heading down? Pockets of strength? What's your take on this sub-real estate market of Los Angeles? Thank you for your insights. FYI, I am a potentially buyer (moving from another, more urban location in LA - I seek more space and peace and quiet).

I live with two other people. We just got DSL installed in our apartment. The monthly fee is 36 bucks which we split three ways. But we just got the bill that included a 120 dollar fee for the modem. My roomate wants me to pay a third for it but heres the thing...Im moving out in December and obviously wont get to use the modem anymore. I understand I need to use the modem to access the internet but I only have access to it for two months so I dont think I should pay for a third of it. Its not like when I move out Im gonna take a third of the modem with me.
