The company I work for will hire one new person every 2 months or so and let them go before they have enough hours to make them eligible for unemployment? I live in Oregon, does anyone know if there is anything legally I can do to get them to stop doing this?

I don't believe that there is anything legally wrong with this, but you can apply peer pressure to the problem. Drop a note to the editor of your local paper and suggest they do a story on the business practices of that particular business. In my area of Oregon, a gas station routinely hires employees and promises them benefits after 6 months. Unfortunately, before they get to the 6 months, their hours are dropped to so few a week they can't afford to work there and most leave. I've always hated the policy, but until you wrote about your problem, I hadn't thought of taking action. But it's inspired me to drop my editor a note - if I can recommend that you do it, I can certainly take my own advice!

She is hitting a advance spurt. (it is the third question that i have responded about advance spurts, LOL) enable her devour as a lot as she desires! upload an more suitable ounce to per chance fill her abdomen up. it is widespread, it frequently occurs at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, a million year, and so on. Cereal isn't stated till the toddler is 4-6 months of age. And that's to not be fed in a bottle, that's a choking threat and would not teach the toddler the basics of ingesting from a spoon.

I thought 26 weeks of employment was eligible for unemployment (I've been at my company 16 weeks, and am waiting for this because they've been laying off other people). But isn't that like "playing the system"? Someone should be looking into that?

Most companies have probationary periods that last at least 90 days. They can pretty much fire employees for any reason then. During this period the employee isn't entitled to any company benefits. As far as I know, there isn't anything legally you can do.

Most states can fire you at will. Check the laws in your state.
