The woman's a *****. Plain and simple.

... And she's made it obvious that she can't stand me.

Here's the dilema. I can't quit. I'm pregnant, and cannot leave because of the insurance issues, at least, not until the baby's born.

Sometimes, though, I seriously wonder how great I would feel at the end of the day if I throttled the sh!t out of her for some of her condescencing comments, ignoring my questions, or acting like I'm an inconvenience.

She's made my job such a catch-22. I get in trouble for most of my judgment calls, but when I ask her for advice (to avoid an asschewing), I never get a response, and then get my asss chewed again when I haven't gotten something resolved in time.

... I feel like I'm in HELL.

I work in california and was wondering if there is a california or federal law on when a company should provide insurance benifits for a full time worker? My friend has been with the company over a year and still has no benifits...i know most companies give it to you after 60 or 90 days probation even 6 months but is there a law about how long they should take ?

You may remember me posting a questions last week, but I had an interview last Monday and I was to find out the results by Friday. My phone acts up and turned itself on vibrate so I missed her call on Friday (I had a missed call from her). I called back but she'd left for the day so I left a voice mail and I have yet to hear back from her today...Monday. Should I wait or call? I'm anxious! They don't usually call if they don't want you but now I'm worried that she accidentally called me. She also said she doesn't like leaving people VMs because she likes to talk to an actual person. Should I be concerned? Should I call her back this afternoon or just wait it out? If I take this job, my last day for my current job will be Friday so I need to know ASAP!

I have been in my job as a retail assistant for river island for just over a year, there seems no chance of working up the system in my job to be a Visual Merchadiser (person who deals with putting together the display for the windows..etc). The person who comes in and does this has said she doesnt really know how she got her job, she was offered it by a friend who left the role. She did say I could help her put out the displays when shes there but my managers keep grabbing me for the shop floor as I have "great customer service skills"
I have a degree in textile design but it seems to make no difference, I have listed myself on several websites for jobs in retail and applied but am told I need experience.
I cannot afford to go back and study further as I already owe too much money after my B.A and my retail job is £5.10 an hour I have asked my store managers and they dont know, I have sent emails to job ads asking how I gain the experience they are looking for and they dont know!!

I recently received a notice that I have to attend a phone hearing on the 27th for possible ineligbility for unemployment benefits, though my reasoning for discharge was poor work performance. However, after being let go, I was able to qualify for the Cobra insurance option(the HR of my last job even assisted with the paperwork), and it's common knowledge that you have to be let go from employment for anything other than gross misconduct to receive that type of health coverage, so shouldn't that automatically prove that I am eligible for unemployment due to them having the actual reason on file?

My husband got this job a year and a half ago. His boss has had trouble keeping people, so he did everthing he could to keep my husband working. He has gotten 4 raises, 4 huge bonuses, gift cards, lots of cash, all sorts of stuff. His boss came to our baby shower, they bought us an expensive highchair. His bosses wife and I had a kid at the same time. There are only 2 employees, including my husband. My husband goes kiting and is best friends with his boss.
Problem: My husbands dream is to run a resturaunt, his passion is cooking. His mother bought us a resturaunt out of state, its more money than we'd ever dreamed, he has to give his 30 days notice now.
His boss cannot just hire someone new. It takes months to train for this specialty. My husband will be screwing his boss big time to leave now. He could possibly go under. Should my hubby get drunk, or write a letter, or what???? How do you tell your friend you have no choice but to screw them and their family?? :(

I have had an interest in mystery shopping (or secret shopping) for a long time. I have tried several online programs, but they all seem to be scams. I was wondering if anyone knows any legitimate mystery shopping companies, or has any advice on how I get started in mystery shopping. I had a particular interest in hotels, higher paying jobs, and clothing stores, but any information is appreciated. Thanks!
