Hello

I work in NJ for a multinational firm for the past two years. I want to quit my job as I have a better offer

If I give two weeks notice tomorrow, 21 Nov, is it acceptable to say my last day would be Dec 5? I ask becasue the two day holiday comes into the picture.

I need to be out of the country for an important occasion by the 5 th and so need to resign quickly and see if a couple of days short of two weeks is okay or not.

I am on good terms with my employer and I think if I explain, he should not mind so much.

I am actually waiting for a background check to clear and they say it will be complete tomorrow.

I know I have nothing adverse in it to harm my position, but am still waiting for the surety from the future employers.

Some people I asked opinions of said there is no need to wait as if there is no problem in the background, the check will be fine and i can resign today also.

Please advise!!

A woman in my department uses what I would call “baby-talk”. She’s 43, never had a date – I suppose she wants to be the Mother of the office.

She is an OK employee (lots of drama at home) but when she speaks to me (dept. admin) she says things like, “Precious, I have to go downstairs...” “Pretty lady, I have to call...”, “Boo, I want to tell you...”, “Good morning Precious! What a pretty blouse for the Pretty Lady!” And when she comments on the picture of my granddaughter she speaks in a lispy, fake, even worse baby voice. GAG!!!! She is not gay and wants a boyfriend in the worst way. She is overly emotional and all attempts to speak with her about issues elicits a huge passive-aggressive attitude and she feels very wronged by the world. She just cannot speak to me and others without the baby-talk. What to do?

The Indian markets, for that matter, any emerging markets seem to follow suit with the US markets. If the US closes in green, everyone expects a gap up opening here in India and If a red closing in wall st, then a red opening in India. Why does this happen? Are there Foreign Investors who buy and sell on a daily basis only based on US markets and not based on the fundamentals of the company they are investing in? Can anyone explain this phenomenon... What has US stocks got anything to do with opening of Indian or any other emerging markets?

I am a value investor and been in the market for quite some time now. Almost all of my portfolio is the Vanguard value funds for Small, mid and Large cap. Also I hold a big position in the REIT index fund. But almost all these securities have been doing really bad for the past 2-3 Qtrs. I see my portfolio going down in value every Qtr. Should I trade positions for some growth funds ? What do think future holds for Value and REIT funds?

I moved out of my moms house about the middle of last year, so I was a dependent of hers for half of they year and the other half I was on my own.
SHe had her 2006 taxes filed by Globe Financial. I did mine by myself and mailed them in, the lady at Globe told my mom it was ok for her to claim me as a dependent on her taxes and for me to claim myself. So thats how we did it. She is a single parent of me and my sister so she got back a good bit in refund. I also got back about $400. Well now we were sent a 1040x for stating that I could not be claimed twice, which makes since.
Do we need correct it to her claiming me as a dependent? I am confused and every time I call the IRS I am put on hold forever and the lady that filed my moms taxes doesnt work there anymore so they wont help us there.

Ok, so I am a graduate student, and for the first time, I am getting student loans, which has pretty much cut down on how much I will pay (i.e. nothing...yet) each semester. Now, I know that at the end of the year, my school will send me a 1099 indicating how much I "paid" to the school. Will that show student loans as an amount I paid, and thus allow me to deduct that money on my 1040?
