After a disagreement at work (non-violent) I was notified by the owner via email that they were "unsure if they would have hours to offer me in the future." Never giving me an oppurtunity to respond or even relay my opinions or perception of the situation.

I quit my job 1 month ago and still haven't received a check. What are the laws in the U.S. I was working for a company in Florida and I currently live in Idaho. The company was dishonest and took advantage of me.

I was just laid off from my job. Just wondering if I should expect to get 67% (rhode island) of my net or gross pay. Do my insurance benefits get carried for the length of my unemployment? Other information welcomed and appreciated.

Thanks

Today marks the 10th Week that I have covered for an open position here at my company - along with my regular position & duties. The pay rate for that position is $52,000.00 per year or $1,000.00 a week. To date I have saved our Company $10,000.00 or 10 weeks of salary that has NOT been paid out. I notified my boss in the beginning that if covering the position lasted longer than 2 weeks I wanted a bonus of somekind. But now it has been 10 weeks and we finally are seeing some qualified candidates for the job. My boss is very cheap I will MAD if he offers me a check for $500.00 or something. The extra work has really been weighing down on me I believe I deserve more. What SHOULD I be receiving? Is there a standard? Note: Covering empty positions is NOT part of my job description.

I feel like teenagers have been understimated, people globalize when coming to situations involving teens, I know that i not only speak for myself but i speak for a lot of people my age, who have the maturity of someone older, i feel like this is racism, teenager like me have talent and are capable of doing things that would fit into a corporate job, so, why is this happening, why we have to take fast food jobs or that kind of jobs?

I'm trying to find out what basic services are provided by non-profit organizations. I know they all have their specific field, but there is a structure of sorts that all non profits will go through. I'm looking for a list of basic (and some not so basic) services they render, as well as a list of information detailing what the organization does through out the year. ie, look for sponsors 20% of the time, give away money or services 30% of the time, etc. Best answer will go to the person who is descriptive, detailed, knowlegable, and meets the requirements of the question. Thank you.

I have been going through some medical problems lately and have missed 4 days of work but not in a row. They demanded a doctor's note the last time I called in and now I had to miss today. Again they called me up asking for a doctor's note! I had my doctor write the last time that I have an ongoing medical condition. I can't keep going to the doctor paying office calls when I have been diagnosed and treated! If I show up without one can I get fired even if I tell them I to re read the last one my doctor gave me!

I'm interested in serving on non-profit boards. I have a great deal of volunteer experience, but I just started working full-time. I have a post-graduate degree. It's a great way to use the skills I have while networking and gaining new experience. The organizations I volunteer for already are... bureaucratic and their board members are all significantly older with more experience and major donors. They include health and advocacy groups. I know they value my time and effort, but they've brushed off my inquiries.

How do I go about achieving this goal?

I am a 3rd year law student. I am undecided if I want to be a lawyer or not, assuming getting a job will be tough, does anyone recommend any careers where my law degree would help?

I currently make 42k a year, applying for a job which I'm not exactly sure what the salary would be, but assuming it would be approximately 10-20k more. During a preliminary phone screening, I was asked for my salary and told it to the HR person. I said I expected a raise shortly, and a 10% bonus at end of year. My concern is that she'll try and low ball my salary offer because I probably make far less than what the job pays. So, my question is whether someone's salary depends more on the job itself or the person's qualifications/current salary. And if its current salary, how can i go about getting closer to the market salary. Finance industry (investment banking operations, near NYC) if that helps.

It has been a year since I finished my MA and during this year I have only been working on a part time basis. This is regarded as a gap in my career and many employers frown on such gaps greatly.

It is a cycle. I can't get a job because I have a gap in my record and the longer I remain without a proper job, the longer my gap is going to become.

Any ideas on how I can find a way out???
