I am 17 and work for one of the country's larger employers. I have colleagues who are over 18 doing the exact same job as me. They get paid 50% more per hour. Is this legal, in light of the Age Discrimination Act. If it's not, how do I go about challenging my employer?

However hard you try, working in an office - or anywhere for that matter - still feels like school. Bosses watching you, keeping an eye, assessing. You clock watch (however much one enjoys their job)... never seem to relax... Then when you socialise - you only talk about work!!

The husband and wife were fighting horribly and it spilled into ever aspect of the business. I felt obligated to them since they brought me up through the ranks from general labor so I stayed until the end, but what do I say to people when they ask. I don't want to say I was running a business that went under, but I don't want to sound like I am blaming the owners either. Should I say that they decided to get a divorce and then had shut the business down in order to split it?

I turned in my 2 weeks notice on 2/1/07 and was walked out the next day. I was willing to work up until 2/14/07 but they had other plans and my new job doesnt start until 2/19/07. Do you think I will be able to collect unemployment for the 2 weeks I am off? I just filed a claim but I will probably be working at my new job before they get around to calling me. It is a better job for me, more money and I dont think they will let me start early. The lady on the EDD line couldnt tell me, she said they will have to review the claim.

If I dont have to pay for some high price kit. I am willing to devote 40 hours a week if the pay will compensate. I need to work from home. If anyone knows of a reputable business, I would appreciate it greatly...Have a great day!!!

I was a contractor for three months and then hired on permanently. I have now been with the company for a total of 13 months. When I update my resume, do I put that I worked for the contracting company for 3 months and my current company for 10 months? Or do I say that I've been with my current company 13 months and notate it started as a contract-to-hire in parentheses? Or do I completely leave off the contractor information? Even though this is a common circumstance for many, I can't find a standard protocol of how to indicate this on a resume.

I was offered a position at work that holds the same title as which I carry now, however, this position is supporting a person that is up the chain from what I am currently supporting and the position is going to require me to do alot more than what I'm doing at the job I am doing now. Is it wrong to assume more money, or bring up the idea of an increase in salary if I decide to take this position.

I have 2 degrees one in Marketing and the other in Communications. I have a concetration in broadcasting, but to start off as a Production Assistant or an Administrative Assistant would pay enough for me to live and I have experience in both.

Me & a co worker got a huge raise back in the summer. But because of this my boss told us that we wouldn't be able to get one come January. I don't think it was written in our file because my co worker told me that she got a form last Thursday stating that she was getting a 3% raise (we had our evals a couple of wks ago) & that what we usually get every January. I asked her if she was going to say anything to them & she said no. We have a new boss now & I guess she wasn't aware that we weren't suppose to get one, however I haven't received a form stating that I am getting one. We stay close to each other & I should've already gotten a letter by now. I get paid Monday but I don't want to wait till then. Me & this co worker are the only 2 people that do this job so we are essentially suppose to be making the same. I would like to know if I got a raise also. What should I do? I don't want to ask my boss...should I ask some one in payroll...maybe they'll know. How do I ask this??

I work for a construction company in the office. I feel I have been a great employee ( I have had raises in the past, etc). I just found out (since I do payroll) that I am the only one in the company that is not going to get a raise this month! I report to four men, and during my last review all but one of them scored me above average except the one man. I think he has a personal hate for me - what should I do?
