Careers & Employment - January 2007

My Ex-boss is a moron. He made me quit after I got tired and I began telling people how I was doing his job and mine. One time he got everyone together, and raised his voice to me infront of everyone, and I told him off back, and quit. I got 30% raise on a job offer I got the week after that. My friend worries me, my Ex-boss hates him too, and he’s trying for him to quit. But my friend isn’t as qualified as me, and hasn’t been able to get a new job. For months my Ex-boss has done things such as logging into his computer and looking at porn, so the computer will register it. Yelling bad words at him in front of others. Giving him unrealistic amounts of work and deadlines. My friend is in a situation where he can’t afford to lose his job, so he puts up with him. Unfortunately, he’s just not very qualified to get other jobs. I feel bad for my friend, I know how unethical that man can be. I wish I could get him a job, but it’s hard considering his education and experience.

I work in a high stress apartment management office as an assistant manager/programs coordinator. The company has been cut off with all but 4 vendors. They don't pay bills, we don't have office supplies--not even copy paper! We can't even run credit checks on applicants. I'm ready to bail, but I'm afraid that I'll run into a long period of unemployment and fall behind on my bills (rent/car payments/tuition/etc.). What should I do?

Found out in Louisiana employees basically have no protection concerning labor laws except for minimum wage.

They want to change me from hourly to salary and I was wondering just how many hours they can require me to work in one day.

Has anyone had a similar situtation or has any suggestions.
According to the Baton Rouge office I can not refuse their request, but it seems that they want to negotiate a new pay rate, some how I feel like I will get screwed no matter what, unless someone has some good advise on negotiations?

Recently the Regional Manager where I work approved the opportunity for a very expensive training course and I want to thank him for the opportunity. What and how should I do this? He has offered it to several of us, and to my knowledge no one else is sending a thank you letter.

The past year has been rough, for many of us at work. The "higher ups" have very bad attituides, and thus it affects all of us. As the new year is beginning, I am trying to find ways to create a positive and healthy work environment for myself. Others just don't get it. I would like some ways to assist me in not letting everyone's bad attitudes cloud the good I am striving to achieve. Thanks you. Sue

A friend of mine noticed that her paycheck is missing money and her company owes her not only for the raise she was promised, but money she is already supposed to be getting... it is a substantial amount of money that she should is owed. She already had to really fight for the raise she was promised. Now that it is the end of the year, she realizes that she is owed at least 10k not including the raise... what rights does she have in trying to get the money is owed to her?
