| Posted: 17 Feb 2020 07:08 AM PST I had breast cancer about a year and a half ago. I got surgery and took FMLA. Luckily I didn't have to undergo chemo or radiation. Surgery was able to remove all my tumors. I still have check ups and screenings occasionally and have to miss work. Another coworker in another department has breast cancer but unfortunately was unable to hand it removed by only surgery and had to be out longer. She is still undergoing treatment. I declined reconstruction on my breasts so I was able to come back to work at 3 1/2 weeks. My FMLA is intermittent. I do take it occasionally for those check ups and screenings because I am at high risk of it returning. I have no breast on my left side (just a flat scar - no breast tissue) and I have no nipple and only a smaller amount of breast tissue on my right side (they removed a lot of breast tissue with a lumpectomy but were able to salvage about 55% of the breast tissue). I have no nipples. I did something very dumb because I am a very dumb person. My coworkers and my immediate supervisor have been talking about my breast cancer for weeks because I had to miss an important meeting for a breast MRI and a bone scan. I requested off. Got my manager and HR to approve it. Converted under my FMLA signed by my oncologist. They have been spreading rumors that because I came back to work so soon that I didn't have breast cancer. I wear a prosthetic at work so no one sees me flat. They are saying everyone they know with any cancer always has to take a lot of time off work and I seem fine. They (coworkers and supervisor , not my manager or HR) are saying I am abusing FMLA. Someone said they saw me out at the store (after an oncology appointment that was approved by my manager I did stop by the grocery store on my way home) and I looked fine. Again I am not on chemo so my appointments are check ups and blood draws. I feel fine after. They are emotionally draining but physical I feel great. It got to the point where I was scared to even take appointments because I knew coming back to work would be the worst. Again, my manager has always been supportive and HR too. This is just my supervisor and my coworkers. I have a surgery coming up to help with some scarring. They are just going to clean up some of the tissue now that everything has healed and I have been cancer free for over a year. I let my supervisor know they are thinking about scheduling it for the summer and he said "right the cancer thing again". One particular day last week, I got upset because I heard them in the office next door talking about me. They were saying I was scamming everyone and that I didn't deserve the upcoming raises. About how I didn't have cancer. I got upset and I walked over and I lifted my shirt and prosthetic bra and showed them the scars on my chest. I did cover my remaining 55% there breast with no nipple with my hand but my scars were on display for all to see. I then told them to go fuck themselves and went back to my desk. This was on Friday at 3:30 pm. I left at 4:30 like I always do. No one has said anything. It is now Monday and I am worried. I had time to think over the weekend and realized it was a huge mistake. I should have just gone to HR about the gossip. I have seen my manager but they haven't said anything. My supervisor hasn't said anything. None of my gossiping coworkers have said anything. The ones that don't gossip haven't said anything and are acting like normal. What should I do to un-mess this up? What can I expect them to do to me legally? Could the coworkers I exposed my chest to call the police? My husband said they likely could but probably wouldn't. Do I get a lawyer now and ask his advice? Would I hurt myself more by going to my manager and HR and saying " I messed up"? I am so worried and confused. Any legal advice would be appreciate. I image if they did fire me something like this would keep me from unemployment right? I know they can legally fire me for any non protected reason and this isn't protected. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2020 01:45 PM PST Tl;dr: A (overly friendly) doctor has started confirming my psychotic mother's delusions. He's texted her about it, so there are some records of what he's said. Please help. Located in Pennsylania Hi all. This is nuts, because apparently that's what my life is right now. Thanks so much for reading. My mother was first diagnosed with cancer around 2011. For the next year or so, her health continued to decline while her condition worsened. She first met with Dr. B in 2012, as she prepared her case for disability. Dr. B took an immediate interest in my mother's case, and became her primary contact as she was going through disability hearings and court procedures. She was absolutely petrified going through all of this, and she confided to me that although Dr. B was a great contact, she was worried about 'upsetting him" in case he would stop helping her. I recently found out he had been texting her during this period (continuing until now), calling her things like "my grey eyes", flirting with her, talking about his wife, etc. I have logs of most of these texts, although some were lost when my mother got a new phone. This is while she was being treated by him, and while he was handling much of her paperwork for disability. This is where it gets nuts. Although my mother's cancer has improved, she's continued to see Dr. B every thirty days, where he's continued to advise her on matters outside of her cancer. In 2014, my mother unfortunately developed psychosis. She's been in out-patient treatment facilities, on antipsychotic medications, and talked openly with Dr. B about this condition - all this to say, this doctor has been very aware of her mental health struggles. So, when my mother went to him several months ago, having dropped 15lbs (she's now 5'4" and 80lbs), claiming that bugs were crawling out of her skin, covered in (presumably self-induced) open lesions, and talking about her suicidal ideation, this doctor must have known her history. Yet he told and TEXTED my mother that if she talked to other doctors about this, they would think she was crazy and that he would help her instead. He took a "sample" of one of these "bugs", placed it in a solution of sugar water, and told my mom to come back in a week. A week later, he tells my clinically depressed and psychotic mother that this "larva" apparently hatched into a bug, and that he sent it off to a university on the east coast to be identified. Later he claimed that these universities said it was a "parasitoid wasp". He texted her pictures of these "hatched" bugs. When my mother first told me all of this, I thought his involvement was another one of her delusions. However, after reading the messages between them I'm absolutely lost at his level of involvement with my mother. As far as I can tell, all of this was a lie. He did none of this, but was instead determined to convince my mom that her paranoid hallucinations were real. He directly confirms and encourages the existence of these bugs, saying and texting things like "Your mother (my grandma) isn't infected yet, so they must only really like to infect you", and commenting that "the house is probably safe for your daughter to come home, they won't touch her". My mom also brought her friend and mother into an appointment with her. They both witnessed this doctor pull out the jar with the "bugs" and confirm they were some sort of wasp. She was recently admitted to a hospital, where these "things" were tested and came back negative for any type of parasite. They're most likely skin cells or clothing particles she's pulling off. So this guy is truly off his rocker. Please, if anyone can advise me at all on what to do here, I'd be really grateful. It's... a lot. I'm young and just graduated college, and after being away from home for a few years just walked into all of this. I have no legal experience, but surely with this text records, this must be some kind of medical negligence or malpractice? Thanks all. [link] [comments] |
| My neighbors have goats that they refuse to contain, and they've now destroyed 4 of my fruit trees. Posted: 17 Feb 2020 03:48 AM PST This is in Maine, and we both have half-acre lots in a residential neighborhood. I've called animal control at least 6 times over the course of the winter, but according to them they have to have 3 "reported incidents" within a 7 day period, or 7 within a month before they can... slap them with a 50 dollar fine. I've had to completely fence in my backyard to deal with this in years prior, but I have no way to completely enclose my front yard without great expense. These were 80 dollars a piece when I bought them from a local nursery, 3 years ago. At this point, I'm thinking small claims court to recoup the loss of the trees initial cost plus some value for the time they've been growing. But more than that, I just want this shit to STOP. Would a judge be able to order them to keep their animals contained? How difficult an endeavor would this be, is it worth my time? Edit Edit: I actually got them on video just now, returning to the scene of the crime. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2020 03:55 PM PST I'm in California. My husband and I are hoping to cut contact with my mother in law. We have been led to believe that we cannot cut contact with her for the last ten or so years because of a court document. We were told the document states that MIL has to have contact with husband in order for my father in law to receive the child support she didn't pay. The court date/settlement/etc. occurred when husband was 16, we have been told this is still the case for the child support to be paid. [link] [comments] |
| Assaulted by my college professor Posted: 17 Feb 2020 01:10 PM PST So today I was just chilling in class waiting for it to start. I had my phone on the other desk to my left because I know how bad the instructor hates it when you get on the phone while he is teaching. Today the girl next to me had her phone out and was on it 2 minutes prior to class starting. He saw it, and started to go berserk. He got in her face, yelled and screamed until she put it away in her purse. Then he saw my phone on the other desk and got even more mad. I put my head down to hide myself from the embarrassment (I hate being center of attention). He proceeded to start banging my phone on the desk and threw it. Then he hit me in my shoulder (closed fist) and grabbed me by my shirt and started shaking me around for literally no reason. I have went to the VP of HR and filed a police report. Is there anything else I can do to further this? This was a technical college in Georgia, if that helps with anything. Also, they got his statement and denied everything. I had the girl sitting next to me do a witness report as well. I'm going to try and find some other people to see if they will also do one. [link] [comments] |
| Jeweler lost my engagement ring!!! Posted: 17 Feb 2020 02:40 PM PST Hey awesome people! Over a month ago I dropped off my engagement ring to a local jeweler to be downsized. He told me it would be ready the next day. So the next day I go to the shop and he tells me it won't be ready for 2 weeks (fine). 2 1/2 weeks later, still no call. So I decided to pop in to inquire. He then tells me my ring was lost by another shop that does the downsizing for him! This wasn't a diamond ring, but it costs over $1000! Here's when I start internally freaking out. He told me he would create a new ring for me since it was "a simple solitaire cut." Over a week later still no call, so I popped up again. This time I even brought a copy of the certificate I received from the company it was originally purchased from. He wasn't interested in even looking at the certificate and proceeded to give me an additional run around as to when the ring would actually be ready. FINALLY 2 days later I get a call to pick up the new ring. I noticed it looked pretty beat up so I decided to take it to be inspected. 3 different and very established jewelers told me this new ring was terrible and doesn't come close to the original. Honestly I would have been perfectly fine if he made a little effort to take this ring back and try again. But now he's ignoring my calls, texts, and won't speak to me in person. I'm not sure what to do next. Any advice will help! [link] [comments] |
| 16f just got kicked out of the house Posted: 17 Feb 2020 09:06 AM PST Im 16f living in Ontario Canada and my emotionally and sometimes physically abusive parents just kicked me out of the hoise. I've thought this might happen but now that it has my mind is blank and I don't know what to do. It's taking everything in me not to run into traffic rn. Please help I don't know what to do. So, UPDATE: I went to the police, and he didn't seem to take me very seriously but he helped me out. I've looked into laws before and a lot of the things the officer said didn't sound right but I'm not completely sure so I'm asking here. He said that my parents could decide what they wanted to let me keep and what they didn't. He also said that if I don't have anywhere to go he will take me back to my parents. For now I'm staying with a friend, and i have other friends who will let me stay with them but the officer said I'd have to inform him first before moving. Is what he's saying right? It seemed to me he just thought i was being a "teenager" and it didn't help that my parents faked nice personalities and lied to him. I told him about them threatening to kill me but he didn't seem to take it very seriously. He also didn't let me take my passport or birth certificate because i "only needed necessities". What do i do from here? The officer seemed to believe my parents much more than me. [link] [comments] |
| Restraining order on a minor? (TN) Posted: 17 Feb 2020 04:33 PM PST (Tennessee) Can I take a restraining order out on a minor and one that lives directly next door? Background: In October 2019, we reported our minor next door neighbor (10 year old, Male) to the Department of Children's Services for sexually abusing our son (9 year old, Male). Our son (9M) completed a forensic interview at the local Child Advocacy Center in November 2019. A detective and the DCS case worker were present on the other side of the one sided glass. We were debriefed. DCS stated that the minor neighbor (10M Abuser) groomed and preyed on our son before the incident occurred. We were advised to not allow the abuser contact to our children (we have 3 kids in total). We were then told DCS would try to have everything wrapped up after Christmas (2019). At the end of January 2020, the abuser (10M) tried to come into a public community area where our son (9M) was playing. My husband was present and told the abuser (10M) he could not be around our children, the abuser left. The abuser attempted the same again the next week at a public community area, I told the abuser to go away. The abuser complied and left. On February 9, 2020, the abuser approached my son's twin brother while he played at a friend's house. The abuser was screaming that my son's twin needed to "be gone" and "leave", mistakenly thinking there was not an adult present. The friend's parent stepped out of the garage and the abuser rode off on his bike. Moments later, the abuser was hidden behind a fence two doors down and attempted again to make contact my son's twin. I called the DCS case worker on February 10, 2020 to inform her of what was happening and ask advice on how we can handle this situation. The case worker suggested that the detective should have filed a order of protection and I should contact him. When I contacted the detective, he stated that when cases are minor vs. minor, DCS are responsible for filing the order and a "safety plan". I called the case worker back and have yet to make contact with her. Although, being warned (multiple times) not to speak to my son's twin by the friends parents, the abuser yet again tried to make contact with my son's twin yesterday (2/16) while he played outside at a friends house. Is there a way to take a restraining order out on a minor? Or must we take the restraining order out on the parents of the abuser and list the abuser as well? [link] [comments] |
| My dad gets 1099 instead of W2 and there are so many wrong things about his job Posted: 17 Feb 2020 09:39 PM PST It's tax season again and I have to fight with my dad every year about his tax form. I'm almost certain that he should be a W2 employee, but for some reason, he gets 1099 instead which is for independent contractor/freelancer. Here's background of my dad and his job
To file his taxes, my dad uses a CPA who is "recommended" by his boss...and I'm pretty sure his boss is also using the same CPA. I want to files his taxes on TurboTax, but I have to pass it off every year because his taxes are far more complicated with 1099. CPA guy clearly did some magic because when I used TurboTax, he owed about $4500, but when he did it, he only owed about $2500. When I looked at his 2019 returns, I noticed that his CPA filled out schedule C. Below is from Part VI (Other Expenses):
My dad wasn't even aware that these expenses were included. How is this even legal? They were completely falsified, my dad doesn't have any receipts or documentation to support his expenses. If the shit hits the fan and he gets audited by IRS, who is at fault? Is it my dad or the CPA? To top it off, the boss told my dad NOT to cash the check until he tells him to do so. He couldn't deposit the check for 3-4 weeks, so he had trouble paying the bills. WTF. I keep telling my dad to quit this shitty job, but he said he has no choice because his English is not very good. This makes me really sad. What can I do in this situation? Should I file a complaint with the Department of Labor or the IRS? I don't even know where to start. [link] [comments] |
| My landlord makes me feel unsafe. Advice please! Posted: 17 Feb 2020 12:14 PM PST ETA: Washington State! TLDR: my landlord seems obsessed with me, coming over to look in my windows and skylights. I am afraid of him and I am moving out.... Do I have to let him in for another inspection?? It is just me and my little girl and I am afraid of him. —— Over the last 7 months, my landlord has become obsessed with inspecting my house. I've lived here 5.5 years and before July he inspected twice. But since then it's multiple times per month. He refuses to give me a lease beyond a month to month and uses these inspections to basically hold my housing over my head, reminding me that he can give me a 20 day notice any time and make me move out. He comes over to "decide if he'll extend my lease another month." However, he is never happy even though I have weekly cleaning ladies and he always has an excuse to come back like one time there was a glass on the counter (which he saw me take from the cabinet, drink water from, and set down for later!). As if that is a reason to kick someone out. It's insane. I think he really likes that he can hold my housing over my head. Ok, all that to say he has escalated his invasion of my privacy to the point where he is now climbing on my roof to look in my skylights when he thinks I'm not home. He has a workshop within walking distance and will just show up with his ladder. I've caught him laying on his belly on my roof, looking in. He admitted he looks through my windows and so I got cameras and have documented this. This past week I caught him on camera staring for almost 2 minutes into my windows and taking photos. It makes me feel so unsafe. I feel like he has become obsessed with me. He watches my house from his workshop. When he sees me he comes and yells and screams at me, and it scares me. After I got him on camera this week, I made a police report and they informed him to not come on the property without proper written notice unless it is to give written notice posted on the door. I told him we were moving by end of March. I can't do this anymore as he is giving me terrible anxiety. After that he gave me a termination notice which I guess is fine, since I want to move and already told him that. But now he is badgering me via text and demanding to know how soon I will be gone and is now insisting (again via text) that he will be doing an inspection tomorrow night. I don't want him here. I don't see why he needs to come here come, since he knows we are moving. He can just wait. Do I have any rights here? Since his notice is simply a text telling me when he is coming does that count as written notice? I don't feel safe with him around. Thank you. I don't know what to do. Even having friends here doesn't stop him from berating me and yelling at me. I just don't want to deal with this anymore. I have door stopper things that prevent doors from being opened, so can I just put them up and not let him in?? [link] [comments] |
| My gf was assaulted and is now being stalked by a lyft driver Posted: 17 Feb 2020 04:54 AM PST My gf was waiting to get picked up from a driver, turns out it was a person who had cancelled a lot on her before. She lives in an apartment complex and gets Lyft's all the time, so the drivers dont know who they are getting until they get there. I dont know why the dude cancels a lot of her rides, maybe because it's a rougher part of town, but the 1st time it happened, he left her stranded at a Walmart until another rider came. Anyway, shes waiting for the driver who turns out to be the jerk driver, he swerves around and hits my gf with his car, running over her foot in the process. The apartment complex has cameras everywhere so the entire thing is on film. She files a police report and files the claim with lyft, and we're still waiting for the police to finish. He also filed a counter claim to lyft saying she punched his car, which we have on camera, and she did not. Finally, we woke up to eggs being thrown at the windows at my gfs place and she thinks his car was outside last night. So now I'm worried that the driver is some deranged person wanting revenge. We called the cops again, but should we be doing anything else? We live in Michigan Edit: typos/formatting [link] [comments] |
| So my tenant filed an order of protection against me Posted: 17 Feb 2020 09:44 AM PST So due to some circumstances I purchased a house with some crazy high taxes. I decided to rent out a room to a guy who told me he was recovering from cancer and had a service dog. We signed a month to month lease and verbally contracted that if it did not work out after 30 days either one of us could end it. We shook hands on it. It became painfully clear soon after that this individual is a substance abuser. He did not pick up after his dog, was frequently impaired and did not pay his rent in full. I asked him politely to leave and he began asking for money to go away. I declined to give it to him and he threatened to go to my job and generally make trouble for me. I went and completed an order to quit(eviction) and filed a police report. The officers informed me that this guy had completed an order of protection against me and had used a different address thus if I returned to my own home I would be arrested and face felony charges. He also stated in his order that we were intimate cohabiting thus getting his order very quickly. I completed an order of protection against him and the marshal that served it stated that this guy said it would all go away for 10,000$. The marshal documented this. I contacted a lawyer who wanted a 5000$ retainer. I don't have the money. There is a court date of February 24th but in the meantime I am out of my house and this guy has access to my personal belongings and mail. He appears to have done this before to other landlords. I want to see a judge and get this order modified immediately so I can return to my home. I also want to charge this guy with extortion and filing a false police report. I would go to the courthouse today but it's a holiday here. I am in Connecticut any help would be invaluable to me as I'm desperate. Thank you. And yes I know I am naive and should have checked this guys background. I should have known better. [link] [comments] |
| Incompetent relatives illegally immigrating here with their children Posted: 17 Feb 2020 06:30 PM PST This is somewhat of a long story that I have attempted to distill into its essential points, but feel free to scroll down for the TL;DR I. aunt and uncle from India have serious legal and family problems there: unpaid debts to family and friends, warrants out for arrest, involved in multiple schemes and forgeries II. they have attempted to illegally immigrate here on multiple occasions since 2015 through overstaying visitor visas or spurious attempts at filing for asylum (they do not qualify). III. each attempt has fallen apart because uncle is incapable of holding down a job partially due to alcoholism, end up relying on my mother and I, who can not support them for longer than a couple months IV. most recent attempt was more successful at first, both found jobs and place to live through network of Indians that span the country (it's a thing) V. this has all recently fallen apart due to domestic violence issues between alcoholic uncle and aunt who likely suffers from some form of borderline personality disorder (my very uneducated guess). they are behind on rent, got kicked out of their old place, and live somewhere else now VI. in most recent incident, aunt assaulted uncle and neighbors called police, aunt now faces criminal charges and was bailed out by some other sketchy guy she knew from work who she now resides with and seems intent to elope with. With the laws in the state this happened in, she cannot see the kids and is on some kind of probation until trial (for obvious reasons the details are sketchy, i can get more info if it is helpful). against our advice, she refuses to go back to India (possible that legal troubles and debts await her there). VII. kids now reside with alcoholic father who has trouble holding down job, is now a visa overstay and therefore an illegal immigrant. called us today wanting to get out of this situation with their parents, they're essentially trapped there. older child is sixteen, youngest is eleven. we want to bring them to our place. VIII. a few months ago we picked the younger one up from her parents and had her stay with us after a domestic incident, but we had to drop her back off as we could not keep her indefinitely and aunt threatened legal action. IX. cherry on top, both my mother and I are pursuing a security clearance for federal government jobs and harboring them illegally is a serious threat to career and livelihood. X. Conclusion: we would like a way to keep the kids with us for a while until we can figure out something with family back home. they have been enrolled in school both in our hometown and where they reside now on and off the past few years, and have been traveling back and forth and its taking a serious toll on them. older one is now a grade behind, younger one is starting to show some symptoms of serious trauma. The social services at their school is now aware of the situation as well as both have children have told their counselors. We are able to take care of them. their situation in India does not seem that good, if sent back with their parents its not clear what would happen and what would prevent them from doing the same bullshit again, and I don't trust the legal or child welfare institutions there to take care of them nor would i want that. family is also largely incompetent and has enabled aunt and uncle's behavior and illegal immigration projects the past few years, constantly giving them money for airfare and legal troubles. we need a solution for the kids that won't put us in a legal problem or threaten our careers. What are our options? TL;DR: my cousins are here illegally with their incompetent parents against their will, want my mother and I to get them out of the situation. sending them back to India is a bad idea as family is incompetent. both my mother and I are seeking security clearances and holding them illegally, while easy, is not a feasible option. What are our options to keep them with us legally? [link] [comments] |

| Roommate signed new lease, landlord kept security deposit (NY) Posted: 17 Feb 2020 06:45 PM PST Location: New York In 2018, I signed a lease for an apartment with another person. I put down the deposit (was only $300). That lease ended over a month ago and I moved out. However, my roommate decided he wanted to stay, so he signed a new lease, with just his name on it, beginning the day after our old lease expired. I asked the landlord for return of the security deposit as the lease had terminated. The response I recieved was: "The security deposit stayed with the lease agreement your roommate took over, since the apartment was not "moved out " of the computer the refund does not get credited." In my mind the initial lease agreement that I had entered into has been terminated, thus security deposit should be returned. Any new agreements signed afterwards are irrelevant. I'm probably wrong on this but was hoping someone could explain. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
| My father took my car that's in my name Posted: 17 Feb 2020 06:43 PM PST My father came to my apartment and took my car "for my health". He thinks I've been driving under the influence, which I haven't. It used to be his but he sold it to me so everything is under my name now. The title, tags, registration, insurance, everything is all me. If I go back to his place and take the car back is there anything he can legally do? Like if he calls the police and tries to say I stole the car what would happen? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2020 12:28 PM PST My ex wife bartends at a posh country club for old white dudes and reports 0 (zero) tips for child support forms. I pay in excess of 1000 a month based on these forms. I've seen her wallet, and it is often filled with more loose bills than my paycheck. I know some patrons must tip off their debit cards. I agree with child support in principle but is there a way to get her to honestly account for tips? [link] [comments] |
| Pharmacist cousin looked up my medical prescription history and share with family members. Posted: 17 Feb 2020 10:45 PM PST Cross posted in r/hipaa. My aunt sent me a text stating she knew I was on medication for a number of months, including when I filled the prescription and the amount of refills and how much the dosages were. It was out of nowhere (she's a staunch anti-Vaxxer but that's another story for another day) and said I was an addict. She called my husband to tell him (thinking he didn't know about this) and when he asked her how she knew, she proudly said her daughter was a pharmacist. I am mortified and furious that she had access to this information and abused her license to share my personal medical information with various members of our family. What can I do? She's done this before but it was years ago. I don't know the name of the insurance place she works, just her name and the state she is licensed in (IL). Thank you for your help! [link] [comments] |

| Apartment parking spot problem Posted: 17 Feb 2020 04:13 PM PST Based in West Hollywood, California. My roommate and I are new to the US (from Europe) and on the day we moved in to our apartment we were told by a neighbour and the building manager, that the parking spot we had been assigned had already been swapped to this neighbour prior to us being involved. However that specific parking spot is assigned to us in our rental contract that was previously signed by both parties. Apparently they 'forgot to change the listing'. Any suggestions on where I stand or what I can do next to reclaim the spot? (I'm not being 1st world problems - my roommate is currently learning to drive and the spot that we are in is the most difficult to park in - and I've been driving for 8 years). I tried politely asking the neighbour and, while they are lovely, they are very attached to my parking spot. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2020 12:14 AM PST I posted this over on r/advice and was directed here so ummm help. Important info, I work in North Carolina Other thing happening include pressuring employees to sign witness papers for safety searches even if employees weren't there. Well the title sums it up nicely I think. I work at corporate run psychiatric hospital that serves children and a small geriatric (55 and up) ward. I work in the admissions department so I'm privy to people medical records and who is coming and going from the hospital. Lately my concern isn't with who is here so much as how many are here. The other night I was told that we had two adolescent girls on there way to be admitted, however at the time we only had one bed. They had purposely double booked the bed and told me that if both showed up, I was to put the one that arrived first is the room and that me or another staff would need to sit with the other one until the discharge the next day. I was told that I absolutely must admit the second one "after midnight" on our books no matter when she arrived. I assume it had to be that way so our records wouldn't show we had more patients than beds. Fortunately for me one of my coworkers called the hospital referring hospital around managements backs and told them to send one of the girls the next day. Tonight I come in and I here that one of our doctors walked out today because of our geriatric ward. We have had the adults side capped at 13 patients for a while now because our doctors had determined that we didn't have the staff to help more than that. Well the corporate powers that be, the CEO and my boss have decided to start ignoring that. The ward is now at 17 and they want four more added soon. Patients are falling and hurting themselves because we don't have staff to watch them and they continue to pressure us to admit more patients. Before I admit a patient I am supposed to get them approved by a nurse and then the doctor and I have been told recently to ignore the nurse and send geriatric referrals to the CEO and my manager for approval. These people have NO medical license or education and are making medical decisions around the medical staffs backs. Two nurses have quit and the Dr. walked out and I'm starting to become concerned that I may be complacent in unethical behavior at the least and a possible crime at the worst. What should I do? TLDR; Management is going around doctors and nurses overfilling the hospital and some patients are getting injured. (I should also note that the understaffing is dangerous for the employees too, it is a psych hospital after all) [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2020 06:35 AM PST Context; Illinois, two sisters, both were executors, but the evil sister seized control over everything about a year ago and shut my Wife out completely. Mother passed in January, Sister refuses to communicate in person, Wife sent a registered letter asking for the copy of the will and all financial records, she refuses to respond. Sister has taken months long vacations in Europe and all the money she cares to take, my Wife received a 10k IRA. Sister is not going to respond from what we gather, so I guess we have to sue her? We have no experience with these matters.
Any help would be appreciated. [link] [comments] |
| Is She Entitled To Alimony? (MN, USA) Posted: 17 Feb 2020 05:51 PM PST At first, I laughed my head off at the idea of this, and my father did too. Now, however, he is starting to doubt and is considering just paying her rather than going to court... My father was married to Jane for just over a year. However, for most of the marriage, she lived in Utah, and he in Minnesota. They only lived together for a month tops. They never shared finances or anything. In August, without his knowledge, she bought a house in another city, and left on the 1st of September. There was no discussion about leaving- in fact, she said she was going to Bemidji to pick up a couple of things and visit her family. Several days later, she sent an email saying she was done. Here we are, months down the line. My dad gets a long, rambling email from her demanding that he pay her $1200/month for 12 months in alimony, starting this month. (There's no way on god's green earth he can afford that.) She attached a bunch of paperwork for him to fill out. I don't know much about the law, but I thought spousal maintenance was for people who were married for like, 10 years, and the amount was based on the standard of living established during the marriage. Clearly, in this situation, no standard of living was established because she only lived with him for a few weeks! Not to mention, she was the one who left. However, she is apparently in a bad way. Her house is condemned, and she's working about 15/hrs a week at a Walmart. She's on government assistance, so I guess my father's fear is that the state will jump at the chance to make him pay for her instead, and he'll end up not only paying her $14k, but the legal fees as well. Given the circumstances, is she entitled to any spousal maintenance? Is this something worth hiring a lawyer and going to court over? Please let me know if more details are needed. Thanks for reading :) [link] [comments] |
| [US-CA]Store broke my refrigerator Posted: 17 Feb 2020 06:29 PM PST I bought a Samsung refrigerator on sale about 3 years ago w/ 5 year extended warranty. A couple months ago, my ice maker froze itself over so I asked them to come fix it for me. Instead of thawing or waiting for it to melt, the guy tried to pry it open and ended up breaking the piece. No problem. We scheduled for a different day and they brought the new piece but turns out they mangled the inside connection piece while prying it so the ice maker doesn't fit anymore. They are deeming it as unfixable. Again, no problem. Just annoyed that I have to take another day off work but it has to be done. Anyways, this is why we buy warranty. They will replace it for me. Nice! A few weeks go by and nothing on their end. I give them a call and they are telling me now that I am eligible for however much money I paid for it and I have to repurchase the (edit - STILL MANUFACTURED) refrigerator at current full price. ~$800 more than I paid for 3 years ago. That is their "replacement" and this is what my $300 warranty gets me I suppose. Now we have a problem. This is crazy right? They can't come to my house to fix a small issue, end up break my entire refrigerator, and then "hehe oops but heres some money just buy a new one" can they? lol. [link] [comments] |
