What should I do? I am an one of 2 executive assistants at a large company and I LOVE my job. I went through a 2 month probationary term with the temp agency and they will officially be making me permanent on Dec. 16th. But the bad news is that my period is late. I haven't taken a test yet. But if it comes back positive what should I do? I don't want everyone to be pissed, but I would also be working for the next 8 months. Help!!

I typically work part-time and get paid hourly. I also do travel with groups and have to go out of town. I recently went out of town for three days. My first day - between morning flight and dinner (with client on arrival until bed) I was going for about 18 hours. Second day - 8 hours and then third day was 12 hours by the time I got home. Granted I was out of the country for those three days.

The company I work for is great - they are a small company - who takes us to lunch weekly and on my trip paid for a massage. Should I just clock 8 hours for each of those days? I wish there was a legal manual for this. I had a trip last year out of country with a large group and only charged 8 hours each day - even though it was more. What do you think is the proper way to handle this?

I am wanting to apply for a position that does a background check for the last 15 years and wants to know EVERY job I have held in that time period. I had several jobs in different fields as a college student and I honestly don't think I can remember the exact dates, length of time of every job I held while I was in school and only working part-time, ect. I can't just selectively edit because if I miss a job I previously held, I would be automatically disqualified.

A month ago, I applied for a job in the graphic design field. I met all of the qualifications, and was called in for an interview, which I felt went quite well. I was told that the company would be calling for second interviews within a week. The owner handed me a business card and told me that I was free to check back with him any time.

The next day, I sent a thank-you letter. I waited the allotted week, and after not hearing anything back, I called. I was given a receptionist, to whom I left a message stating that I was checking on the status of my application. I was told the owner would call me back. He never did.

It doesn't bother me so much that I didn't get the job, but I feel like I put quite a bit of effort into it... updating my portfolio, sending a resume, travelling to the interview (which was an hour away), and mailing a thank-you letter.

Am I wrong to think it would be proper to at least send a letter or email saying that the position has been filled?

I am doing contract work for a law firm. There are approximately 60 attorneys on one floor in an open environment (no cubicles). The floor is run by 2 managers. One of the managers gives preferential treatment to two specific contract employees. This manager is 22 years old and fraternizes with these two people while enforcing the policy on everyone else. Numerous complaints have been made to his superiors to no avail. I'm at my wits end with this hypocrisy.

Obviously it has to be professional, but not necessarily professionally-inclined. I'm her personal assistant, and I don't know what to give her for her birthday.

Thank you!

What's your current annual salary?
Do you have a college degree?
If so, how much did you make when you got out of college?

I got out of college at 22, and accepted a job in an assembly plant in the Quality department. The job put me in a position where I was responsible for anything that could go wrong; because I was new I accepted a very low salary for a job that should be paid a lot better. After the first year, I was graded as “Exceeded Expectations”, however, I got no raise. The next year, the plant expanded, and they opened up another process engineer position, but the guy they hired never did anything, he was just buck passer, he got along with the boss great, but I ended up doing all my work and his for a year. A year later, he got promoted above me. This time, I confronted my boss, and told her this was not right, she said she had to give the other guy a promotion because if it wasn’t for him, none of my projects would had been done on schedule. I hesitated before doing it, but I did. I quit, and I didn’t explain to anyone how to pick up from where I left off any of the projects.

yes its been posted b4 but the co workers arent satisfied with the question i asked since its missing some details.

I work for a pharmacy that merged with another company. We took on their Paid time off schedule, changed our email address to theirs, and the company slogan is "one year, one company" its been a year. well since we had been with them our insurance rates raised 300%. we dont get time off up front instead we have to earn it. now the other company that we merged with has done this

Whats the most effective way to approach this holiday situation?
I work for a pharmacy that has 2 offices of about 150 employees in each. One office about 40 miles away got 2 days off for thanksgiving as to our one day off. Now i found out they will be getting off 2 days for christmas and we get only one. Are their any legalities in this? My direct supervisor states she doesnt mind working but the rest of the office here does. But as you can imagine the morale of this office is shot and gone
