I work in an office as a legal assitant/secretary. I work Mon-Fri from 8-5. I have no benefits. My job duties include but are not limited to... answer phones, make appointments, answer questions, take messages, go to the post office and check the mail daily, go to the bank about 2- 3 times a week. I also go to the court house a few times a week to get files, and file paperwork. I copy the files and open files for the office. I also type and mail the letters to the clients. Dust and vacume the office. I have been on my job for 1 year. I may have taken 4 days off. I do work for family, and sometimes watch their kids when they have late meetings. I also get to pick my son up from school at 3 pm and keep him here in the office with me until 5 pm. Which is why I took the job, now with him in school, it does fit my schedule. I have worked for him for $210. a week, which is enough to pay my bills, but does not leave me any left over. What would be a fair Salary?

I temp as a secretary and he calls now and again to check on my availability (I am registered with one or two other agencies too). I emailed him to say I'll be in touch again when I'm next free for work. His response was, "You only want to call to gloat". I didn't answer, but what did he mean by this?

My last day was April 23rd, but still no P45. Or outstanding holiday pay for that matter, although that has been promised for this month...

I get the feeling they are either messing me about or are more incompetant than I thought they were!!!

I missed the day and I just felt like I wanted to hang myself, I could´ve made it, although it would´ve been late, I´m also pretty sick, lets say that I have a weak stomach... So battered as I am.... I don´t know what´s the best thing to say, I got some receit from a doctor on my stomach issue but that wont be enough. What´s the best thing to say??

I was offered my old position back with a substantial increase. I have been with my current employer for only 3 weeks. How should I let them know without burning bridges. Note: I like my current employer as well, but would rather go back.

If a job opening exists or is created, must employers make the posting and consideration process available to both internal and external applicants?
