    Cyberbullying

    You're letting him rent WAY too much space in your head.

    Cyberbullying

    As you were told on the other forum, Florida's cyber-bullying laws are school-related. Stop taking what he says at face value.

    Cyberbullying

    You are overthinking this to an enormous degree. He's blowing smoke up your...skirt. Even if he made a report, the Florida police are just as capable as the Indiana police as seeing that you are the one who blocked him and you have not made any recent contacts. His making a report doesn't mean...

    Americans with disabilities question

    I concede all of your points. However: They didn't say, because she might need to participate in some kind of active duty. The reason she was given was, It wouldn't look good. That. to me, is a problem. The reasons all of you set down are not at all unreasonable and would be valid reasons to...

    Americans with disabilities question

    The poster said, there is very little activity other than traveling to and from the job site. If there is ever going to be a possibility that she is actually going to have to chase someone down, then of course I agree that a cane is not an option. But if all she is doing is sitting at a desk...

    "Unsafe Work Environment" definition, "essential job function"

    No. It MIGHT be harassment but details matter. Discuss it with HR. Not wading through the extraneous gibberish to find the reference. You don't. So choose your hill to die on. Sorry, I'm not going any further with this. Next time you post, keep it short. If we need more information, we'll...

    "Unsafe Work Environment" definition, "essential job function"

    Look, let's cut to the chase. You've written a novel here and I'm not inclined to wade through all the extraneous gibberish to find whatever nuggets of relevancy might be lurking in there somewhere. Precisely what law do you think is being violated or what legally protected rights of yours are...

    Americans with disabilities question

    I'm not so sure that the visuals override her rights under the ADA. She can't have a folding cane under her desk?

    Americans with disabilities question

    Even a security company needs administrative workers. Someone has to do sales and marketing, payroll and HR, dispatch, office management. Your scenario is reasonable IF she is a security guard. If she is not, then the situation is more problematic. Perhaps the OP will provide more detail.

    And what reason do they give her, why she's not allowed to use it?

    Northeastern University School of Law Admissions Faux Pas...

    Several employers ago I was the HR manager for a small insurance company. We had offices all over the country, 10-15 employees apiece, in roughly 10 different states on both coasts. One Monday morning I came in to find an email from the manager of one of our west coast branches; "It was an...

    Executor not following will

    I have worked for insurance companies, and I manage employment based life insurance claims. Anywhere I've ever worked that is related to life insurance, that agent would have been fired for giving you that information.

    Yes, I quite understand that there are those who are against anyone else getting a helping hand, and feel that anyone who doesn't immediately understand and are able to mentally calculate what the interest is going to account to deserves what they get. I'm very glad for those of you who are able...

    I know it's a contradiction in terms but it's how I feel nonetheless. I'll accept "unconscionable" and I realize the legal usury is an oxymoron, but that's my feeling.

    And I don't know what others may call it, but in my view when the interest rates are such that they've paid back multiple times the amount of the loan and still owe more than they've borrowed in the first place, I call that usury. Might be "legal" usury under the laws of student loan, but usury...

    Student Loans New student loans grad school

    The difference is that many of the people seeking loan forgiveness have already paid back the amount of their loan, the same again in interest, in some cases multiple times, and still owe more than they initially borrowed. I saw one story about someone who had borrowed $65,000; had already paid...

    How to fire the super in our building

    I just want to make sure one thing is clear. You do not have the power to have the super fired. You can, and should, make complaints to whatever company, board or agency employs him. However, once you have done that it is up to them what action they take. There is no law you can invoke that...

    Pay rise - but only to one sector of the workforce?

    I think that UK law and US law are very different and we have no experts on UK law here. In the US it would not be in any way illegal to give pay raises to only one area. What the UK has to say on the matter, I don't know.

    Beneficiary Question/Dilemna

    YOU have no recourse at all,. This has nothing to do with you. Nor is your opinion of who qualifies binding on the insurance carrier. You may rest assured that the insurance carrier did not blindly accept the "statement of living children" but confirmed their relationship before releasing any...

    Need help finding a lawyer for a lawsuit against a company

    Just in what you have posted, I can see two reasons just off the top of my head why you are not finding an attorney, particularly if you are looking for one to work on contingency (I do not know if you are or not). 1.) You appear to be distressed because the company you wish to sue did not...
