It is never, anywhere in the US, legal to have a completely unpaid internship UNLESS it is under a bona fide program in which you receive college/university credit for the work you do. The FLSA prohibits work for free. Stipends can be legal but I'll let Tax get into the details as they're...

Welcome, Eek!

The idea here is for YOU to come up with new ideas. Your professor doesn't want to hear what we think - we're not taking the class and he's not grading us. It's not going to teach you anything if we tell you what to include.

Take a deep breath. Just because she makes a report doesn't mean the police are going to take any action. If she's that unbalanced, they'll be able to tell.

It's been a while since I read them but I seem to remember Anne McCaffrey's Crystal Line series envisioning everyone being issued an ID bracelet that functioned similarly to Jack's implants. I use the system Foamback describes regularly but it's really more geared for regular participants. I...

Yep, that's how I pay for parking on those days when I take the train to work. Even in my little New England village.

And when you reported these drunk employees to the company's HR, what happened?

Depending on the mailing, it may be possible to have these sent by email as well. However, there are some notifications that are required by the Feds that must be sent as a hard copy - at least the rules for how to send them electronically are so complex that even the major research university I...

Okay. Let's cut to the chase. I completely get that it's annoying. I've had an internet stalker as well. But what DAMAGES has she cost? Have you lost a job? Been demoted? Had your marriage break up? The law can't compensate you without damages. Don't just avoid her. BLOCK her. She's not going...

I think Tax Counsel has already answered that question if you review his responses.

I wasn't asking why you thought she needed to be investigated. I was asking why, instead of opening a case against her, you wanted the case against Watts re-opened.

This thread is from 2022, reopened by a spammer

I still want to know why it is so important that the case against Watts be re-opened, as opposed to opening a new case against Kessinger.

I concur with Z.

Just so you know: In a previous job, I was the one who did the in-house discrimination investigations. I also was paid to teach employers how to recognize illegal discrimination when it occurred. As should be obvious, I know nothing of your situation other than what you have told me. BASED ON...

However, neither law requires that existing employees all be given raises when another employee is hired at a higher rate due to market changes.

Fine. Clearly you've made up your mind. But do us a favor. When you come back to tell us how wrong we all were and how big an award you won from your EEOC claim, make sure you wait long enough to make it believable. Those of us who deal with this as a matter of our jobs have been amused by those...

For the reasons I've been attempting to explain to you; the job market and the economy were in different places when I started in 2010, than when they started in 2021, 2022 and 2023 respectively. And that female co-worker you're not including in your complaint? You'd better, because you just...

Cleo, here is what I am talking about. I have been in my current position for 13 years. I am at the present time the team leader and I do additional duties over and above what the rest of my team does, so I get paid more. However, there are 3 members of my team who have been in place for 1...

If they were hired after you, that's not definitive proof of gender discrimination by a very long shot. Read my first post and also retic's.
