| Parents took my debit card and locked me out of my bank account and Paypal Posted: 25 Apr 2020 10:29 AM PDT I am 19 years old and live in Arizona. I sent around $600 to my boyfriend as well as bought him an expensive keyboard as a gift earlier in the year. My dad has access to my bank account as I made the account when I was underage but he never removed himself. After my parents saw there was a transfer of $600, they freaked out and acted as if I sent their money even though all the money is mine. They took away my debit card and changed the passwords to my bank account and Paypal account. My boyfriend sent back the money because he didn't want drama. After, I changed my email password and Paypal password but cannot change my bank account password as I do not know my card number by heart. This morning, my mom comes into my room and demands I give her my email password or she will take my phone and shut off my Internet. I asked my parents if I could have a separate account and they laughed and told me no. They said they don't trust me anymore and I have to ask them for any purchases. Even though the money is all mine. I'm so used to them controlling me all my life, I get scared when they demand things so I easily give in. My parent's controlling behavior is destroying my relationship with my boyfriend. Does anyone have advice on what to do? [link] [comments] |
| (CT) Hired as a nurse. (Demoted?) Now “nurse helper” Nurses get hazard pay. I don’t? Posted: 25 Apr 2020 04:08 AM PDT I was hired at a hospital as a registered nurse. I recently received an email stating I would be working as a "nurse helper" due to COVID and me having less than a year of experience (new grad). Many of my duties have been removed but no cut in pay or anything. Recently the nurses have discussed how they are now receiving a 10% pay increase for hazard pay. I am working directly with patients who have COVID, I see multiple deaths a day, and a coworker whom I worked directly with has recently been put on a ventilator due to catching the disease. Should I also receive the 10% hazard pay since I was hired as a registered nurse and am in direct contact every time I go to work? apologies for any grammatical issues or anything, just got off a 16 hour night shift and exhausted. Thanks and stay safe! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 07:17 AM PDT My grandmother is in a assisted living facility in NJ. The facility banned visitors sometime in March due to COVID. My family is in constant contact with my Mommom and we are all on her consent forms to release information to (8 of us total, sons and grandkids). We have never had trouble calling the nurses for an update when my Mommom wasn't sure what was going on. Last Sunday and Monday, no one could get ahold of her. Monday night, Tuesday and Wed we started calling the facility's main number, speaking to front desk or nurses station. We asked about my Mommom / tried getting in contact with her, they all said she's doing fine and will relay the message to her to call us. It was the same convo, "she is doing fine! Nothing wrong / to worry about. I'm sorry, we are short staffed with lockdown, I'll personally relay the message". We had more patience than normal because what is currently going on. We never heard from my Mommom, so Thursday morning I tried calling my mommoms cell phone for the heck of it. A lady answered, said she was her nurse and my Mommom asked her to answer it. I spoke to my Mommom and could hardly understand her. At one point, the nurse came back on the phone and started explaining everything. She is a hospice nurse, my Mommom is under daily care with hospice and experiencing symptoms related to COVID 19 (she did not actually say COVID symptoms, just said coughing, fever, trouble breathing, tired, etc). I asked if she thinks it's the virus and the nurse said no one else has it in the facility. Come to find out Thursday night, (based on NJ gov release) 2 people have died in her facility from COVID, 5 were confirmed positive. No one told us if she has been tested. My aunt called the facility after I called my uncle and told him about the convo, they told my aunt "she is doing fine, we have just been busy", my aunt is on the release form.

| [Colorado] Can my landlord do walkthroughs while there's a lockdown? Posted: 25 Apr 2020 09:28 AM PDT I am moving out of my house at the end of May, and my landlord wants to start doing walkthroughs for new tenants. I've asked her to do virtual ones so as not to expose myself or my family to coronavirus, but she's refusing. My county (Arapahoe) is on lockdown until May 8th, and it may get extended if the virus situation doesn't improve. I'm hoping she can't legally invite a bunch of strangers into the house until I've moved out, but I honestly have no idea what my rights are. I've reached out to the city and haven't gotten any answers. I even spoke to a housing attorney and he said he wasn't sure if I had any standing, although it seemed like he truly didn't know. No one seems to know what the laws are in a situation like this. Unfortunately, asking her to be reasonable isn't an option. She's out of her mind and that ship sailed long ago. Obviously I will be in violation of my lease if I change the locks to prevent her from entering, so does anyone have any advice about what I can do? I'm really hoping someone here knows of a law that states she isn't allowed to do walkthroughs during the shutdown. An extensive search in Google yielded no results. Again, this is in Arapahoe County, Colorado. Thanks everyone! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 07:59 AM PDT She has been abused since a very young age and last month she was attacked very violently and had to call the police. She didn't press charges against him that night because she was scared of ruining the family. She has been saying in my apparent since and has felt very safe. Her mother as a desperate attempt to bring her home has been threatening legal action saying that she's been kidnapped and brainwashed against her dad. She keeps saying she's Indian and not white therefore she can't move out before Marriage. That didn't concern us until the call yesterday where she said she will get a lawyer to find her location through my name. We don't want her father to come here and assault us. Is this really possible and if so what could we do to protect ourselves? We are in Canada. edit: She is 22 [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 07:51 AM PDT This is in MARYLAND USA My Mother is 53 and has progressed to about a late Stage 6/ Early Stage 7 of her Early Onset Dementia (Frontotemporal Dementia) over the course of the past 5 years since her diagnosis / Stage 4. In 2017 my brothers and I got her into a 'home style' assisted living / memory care facility with 3 full-time around the clock caregivers & 6 residents. It's been great so far for the most part. She was happy, we got to visit her frequently, she was being well taken care of. However over the course of the past 3 years, there have been a few caregivers hired that weren't as good as others. Some were kind of rough when helping feed or dress my Mother. But with this care facility it seems like I see a new face every 2-3 months. Which I think is normal in this line of work. Anyway - the caregivers aren't the problem. They have been great for the most part. The problem is the management / owners. When I was sold on this particular spot, I was told in no uncertain terms that it's a long-term care facility and that many residents live here until they die and that they even provide in-home hospice for the final month(s). I didn't really want to think about that at the time, but it sounded like a solid choice because we were uncertain how long my Mother's early onset dementia would last.. and everything about the facility seemed perfect. 10 minutes away, friendly staff, clean conditions, etc. Fast forward 3 years later to now. There have been several hurdles my brothers and I have had to overcome (mainly me as the primary / oldest) while my Mother has lived there, but none worse than right now. Last week I got a phone call from the head Caregiver / Manager and the OWNER of all of their care facilities telling me, "You need to take your Mother to the hospital so they can find her fast placement at a new facility immediately." This is during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic... I asked them why she needed to find a new place since they are 'full service' till 'end of life' with memory care, etc, and they told me that my Mother was "walking around with her arms outstretched 'touching things and people' with her head tilted back". And that she had knocked some things off the wall with her hands. They said this makes her a danger to herself ...??? Needless to say I was pretty upset that they were asking me to do something so unsafe right now such as driving directly to a hospital / emergency room with my Dementia-ridden mother during the COVID-19 Pandemic. It sounded over the phone like they were simply fed up with dealing with my Mother, at least that's the impression I got. I told them in no uncertain terms that there is absolutely NO WAY I am taking her to a hospital right now, and that I would begin looking for new facilities in Maryland immediately. Maybe some that actually do what they say they are going to do. I followed up with my Mother's current care facility over a week ago specifically asking them to provide a detailed letter / e-mail telling me EXACTLY why my Mother is no longer eligible for assisted living at their care facility, and they simply said they would send me 'an assessment from her Primary Care Physician.' Nothing about how long she has to live there before being kicked out, nothing about a 30 or 60 day notice, just that. I followed up again today reaming them out saying they need to give me what I'm asking for so I can find her placement in a new facility immediately. I'm currently talking to a bunch of memory care facilities in Maryland & Florida, both self-pay and Medicaid, scrambling trying to find her a new place to live. But NOBODY IS TAKING NEW PATIENTS RIGHT NOW so I feel like I'm trapped between a rock and a hard place. And I need answers that her current assisted living facility isn't providing!! **My question is a legal one; Is the care facility legally responsible for asking me to do something so unsafe such as taking Mom to a hospital during the pandemic / stay-at-home orders when she's NOT SICK? And what right do they have to kick her out in Maryland? How much time do I have??** Also if anyone has any Maryland Memory Care facility suggestions in the $3-4K per month price range, Self-Pay and/or Medicaid, please send them to me. TL:DR; Care facility that originally said my Mother could live there the rest of her life now says she needs to go, but won't tell me exactly why, or send me the information I need to find a new facility. And they told me to personally "take her to the Hospital and let the doctors and nurses find her placement quickly" during COVID-19 Pandemic. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 02:38 AM PDT My neighbors have always been noisy and we've lived here for over a year. The parents are verbally loud and always fighting. Their voices resonate, especially in this old apartment building. The fights can go on for a while at all times of the day and night. We hear things falling on the floor, chairs being dragged etc. My mom who stays at home is at her wits end because she gets woken up in the middle of the night (3-4am) by them being loud. I too have been woken up on multiple occasions and have started recording the arguments/noises that wake me up and compiled a little album. Time stamps are anywhere from 6:30am to 1:30am, aka unreasonable hours to be making noises. Their arguments also become worrisome as I hear the parents constantly cussing at their child and at each other. Recently they had a fight that went on for 2 hours or so with what sounded like "why you pushing on me," things falling on the floor and heavy stomping. My mom called the manager (she has complained about them in the past) and I did not know about that but I guess the manager also called the police on them. My neighbor approached me as I stepped outside and told me she didn't appreciate my mom calling the manager and getting police involved. She explained her teenage son has a mental disability, a fact that I have never known about. She also claims that her and her daughter have tried explaining that to my mom when she complained (English isn't my moms first language) but explained to me since she wasn't sure my mom understood. My mom said they never said that and just claimed "that's just the way he is." My neighbor said if it's noisy, come to her. She does not want the manager or police involved and said she's taken the manager to court before and it's an ongoing thing. Side note, the parents are separated and the mother is here almost every day to help take care of her son but doesn't actually live here. She basically threatened us that if we get the manager and police involved again she will have her attorney contact us and we'll be involved in this lawsuit. Do they have grounds against us? I believe I have every right to contact the manager when I am a renter. I told them I understand about the son now and as long as they aren't being noisy in the middle of the night then we're okay. It's really not the son that makes the issue, he only drags a chair around or sometimes gets worked up. It's mostly the parents fighting all the time to be honest. Should I be worried? TLDR; upstairs neighbors are so noisy it's driving us insane and they threatened to put us in a lawsuit if we complain about them to the manager because their son has a mental disability. Do they have a viable case? Edit: we are in CA [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 04:34 PM PDT My mom was a preschool teacher, and due to COVID-19 she (and her fellow employees) furloughed in the beginning of April because you can't really teach preschool through zoom. She filed for unemployment and has started receiving it. However, her employer expects them to put lesson plans together, prepare parts of the classroom (job charts, different signage/decorations) that they can from home, as well as have regular meetings to discuss what preschool may look like in the fall, depending on how the phase back-into 'normal' life looks like. This would probably be at least 5 hours a week. They claim they will pay them for this work in August, when they assume they'll be able to resume classes. I advised her to start documenting what type of work they are asking her to do, and if she does any, to record how long it takes her to do. We live in Illinois, for any applicable laws.

| Who is to blame? I backed over my roommates camera gear left in the driveway. Posted: 25 Apr 2020 10:22 AM PDT My roommate and I are in a fight about who is at blame for damage to property (in California). Yesterday I was heading to the store and backed out of our garage, accidentally running over a closed tripod that was left lying on the driveway with a tent cover. These items were positioned right in front of the garage door, and I didn't see they were there, even though I checked my mirrors. The tripod was maybe 4" tall from the ground and the tent cover the size of a backpack. The tripod and tent cover are damaged and now we're trying to figure out who's to blame. I think it was irresponsible to leave items of value on a driveway right in front of the garage door, and my roommate thinks I'm negligent for not thoroughly checking before backing up. He claims I should have looked in my backup camera rather than my mirrors or through the back window. I disagree and don't think it is a reasonable expectation to check the ground for small items before reversing out of my own garage onto our driveway, which is separate from the road. I also don't think it's reasonable to leave small items in the path of traffic and expect them not to be run over. My roommate wants me to pay for a new tripod ($100). I don't think I should. I think the blame is shared 50/50. What do you guys think? Who's to blame here? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 04:51 PM PDT My sister (18) came to my house due to this whole COVID thing, and while it has been unpleasant the whole time since she is generally unbearable, today had been much worse. I came home from getting some groceries to find she had spilled some juice on the floor and had not cleaned it up since it isn't her house. I asked her to mop it up, and after a while she decided to reluctantly do so. I pass her by to put some groceries in the pantry, and she starts to yell at me about how lazy I am for not cleaning up her juice for her. I went back and told her it is my house, reminded her I am allowing her to stay for free, and that she spilled the juice I bought for her on my floor so she should be the one to clean it up. She then started to scream at me and pretended she was going to hit me with the mop a few times. After so many fakes, she hit me on the head and broke off the handle. It didn't injure me, but it certainly didn't feel good, and it busted off the handle to make a jagged edge from the thin metal underneath. She tried to hit me again, so I grabbed the mop and tried to take it from her. She wouldn't let go, so it became a tug of war over it. During this she continued to try to hit me. I tried shaking it to loosen her grip, and it hit her in the body. It was more like pushing her since it did t actually strike her, but she is claiming that it hit her. She has no marks, and I do not believe I do but I do believe there could potentially be one somewhere on my scalp that I cannot see through my hair since I can feel a slight throb there. She is now threatening to call the police. I truly believe she will, as I kicked her out after this and she is very vindictive person. Can I be arrested? I am in Tennessee, and 21 btw.

| My parents have been missing for 19 hours. Posted: 25 Apr 2020 07:21 AM PDT Update 2: FOUND! Thank you all for the push to call the PD and file a report, I just rescinded it over the phone. The dumbfucks were "hiding out" and the detective said if he saw them while he was out and about he would pick them up and take them home. I don't really know what to flair this because it's kind of a clusterfuck. For reference, I live in Georgia, United States. And I'm currently living with my parents due to financial issues. My parents are known for getting too drunk to function, my dad is a PSTD Veteran and my stepmom is a domestic violence and gunshot survivor and they both have problems with alcohol and alcoholism. They left the house yesterday about 3pm EST drunk as all fuck. They said they were just going to Walmart and the liquor store. I've tried calling them on their phones and messenger, sent messages over facebook and it says they were both active between 2am and 4am. However they dont have locks on their phones meaning they could be stolen, I really don't know. I havent received any messages from them. I called our county jail last night and they weren't there, but they may not have been booked so should I try again? Is the hospital allowed to disclose if they have them admitted or in the ER? Should I file a missing person's report? They used to do this a lot when I was a kid, but I always assumed that they would be fine because they are adults. Now that I'm grown I realise that this is not normal behavior and even when they did, I was able to reach them still. There are no bars open near us because of the quarantine, everyone is takeout only. I have no access to their bank records or Lyft accounts. In the next few hours if I still havent heard anything I'm going to see if my uncle will drive me around the area they said they were going to, and around our surrounding neighborhoods to see if maybe they're passed out on the side of the road or something. My husband is walking to the downtown area for a pokemon event and he will let me know if he sees them. I realise that my parents are grown adults with agency over their own lives and maybe they crashed at a friends place. I have no phone numbers or contact for any of their friends nearby, and I don't really know if they have any friends within a 10 mile radius. But my dad has a history of being belligerent when drunk and getting arrested for petty theft and assault. I guess my question is, what are my options? What should me next step be? I'm worried for their saftey, possible legal repercussions or jailtime that would make me responsible for their finances and bills. I also dont want to file a missing person's report in case they come back while I'm out looking for them. I'm just worried and I have some people telling me to file a report now and some people saying that I should wait and stop worrying. I know the 24-48 hour wait is a myth also. Update: I called the local PD and filed a missing person's report. Sorry if this was posted in the wrong place, I'm just worried and didnt know where else to post this. No, my parents don't drive and they were last seen in an Uber/Lyft going to Walmart. [link] [comments] |
| [OR] Ex Girlfriend moved in a year ago, broke up, 4 months later refuses to move out. Posted: 25 Apr 2020 05:52 PM PDT We initially had a conversation about her coming up with a plan to get her own place or move back home in 3-4 months, but that time has since passed. She's gone through multiple jobs and tends to just sleep upstairs constantly, I've urged her to get therapy and go to the doctor but haven't been able to help. This puts me in an awkward position, work is now demanding as ever.. this has been a constant distraction and she gets in periods where she just wants to start fights and drama. Sometimes she will text me and I'll be working and won't answer and she will flip out. We aren't even dating anymore. It's taking it's toll on me. I rent, I am the only person on the lease.. is my only recourse to evict her? If so how involved is that going to be? I feel bad that I'd even have to resort to this. [link] [comments] |
| Ex’s bank garnishment emptied kids savings Posted: 25 Apr 2020 06:58 PM PDT Ex and I have two children who each have a kids saving at a local credit union. Both their father and I are joint owners on the accounts. I make deposits with the kids occasionally and don't actively monitor their balances. I recently received statements with low balances that prompted me to check their transaction histories. Both accounts were emptied December 2018 due to garnishments. I've been emailing with someone at the bank about this, because COVID. I asked her to confirm that the garnishment was ordered under the kids fathers name. She said she is unable to provide that information because he is a family member of an employee at the credit union(his mom works there). She did provide the name of law group that the garnishment was filed under. Does anyone know what my rights are to this information? If I write to the corporate branch of the credit union, will they provide more details? Will the law group provide details? Once I have documentation I intend to remove my name/close the accounts. Located in Michigan. [link] [comments] |
| Went from being furlough to laid off (MN) Posted: 25 Apr 2020 06:46 PM PDT Roughly about a month ago, due to COVID-19, I was put in furlough status by my employer. Yesterday afternoon I received a call from the HR Manager that I was officially being laid off because they chose to eliminate some positions and mine was identified as one. I asked if there was a reason they couldn't keep me in furlough status instead of laying off and she said because they can only keep someone in furlough for 30 days before they have to bring them back or let them go. She went on to say that the company is offering 1 weeks pay as severance but I would need to sign a document stating that I can't sue them or hold them liable for the termination. She continued on and said I would be receiving a packet in the mail and it will be thick but it's just all the legal mumbo jumbo. My questions are, I am currently on unemployment because of the furlough, will accepting this severance affect that and in what way? Secondary to that, is there something I should generally look out for in this "legal mumbo jumbo" packet to make sure I don't do anything stupid? I guess a third that just came to mind is can I negotiate the severance pay? I've never been on unemployment or dealt with this kind of situation before so I'm not sure how to navigate these waters. I appreciate any advice you guys have. Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 07:22 PM PDT Baton Rouge, LA United States Hello, I'm seeking advice on postnuptial agreements, my wife and I are in our early twenties. We both have agreed this would be a good idea. Should I get a lawyer involved? Would a notarized form be enough? We want to keep it pretty simple, in the sense that if we do split up I keep everything in my name and under my accounts. Same goes for her. And anything bought jointly or in both our names would be sold and split 50/50. Any advice would be appreciated! [link] [comments] |
| Boss is saying that I must go into work or he will cancel my unemployment Posted: 25 Apr 2020 01:31 PM PDT I work at a car dealership and since the quarantine we've been closed. I had just gotten off a conference call with my boss and all the employees that have been staying home because of corona. He first called and told me we were opening up on Monday and then he made it clear to another employee we would not be getting paid we will still be collecting unemployment because we can not re open yet. Once I became aware of the situation I did not feel comfortable going back to work. He then said he will get in contact with the state and tell them to revoke our unemployment because he is offering us all a full time job again. I currently work in New Jersey and as far as I know the state is still on lockdown until the governor makes a decision to start phase 1 of opening the state. I just want to know what actions I should be taking or how I should be responding to my boss. PS- I haven't posted on this sub before but I didn't know who else to ask. [link] [comments] |
| Brother suddenly passed, no will/estate/never married, need help w/ financials for children Posted: 25 Apr 2020 11:04 AM PDT I have 3 brothers and our youngest brother passed suddenly last weekend. He has 4 children, ages 4.5 - 1.5, one boy hasn't been born yet. 2 children are with Woman A (4.5 yo autistic boy and 3.5 yo), Woman B has 1.5 yo and boy yet to be born. Here's the situation.
We understand that the boys get the life insurance money directly. Our concern is Woman A having access to that. There's probably nothing we can do. We have family members and friends, including us, that over the course of these children's lives, want to financially contribute to them to ensure their success. Woman A is not a suitable caregiver and is not mentally or emotionally mature enough to care for them. This is a separate issue, but I wanted to make mention so that it's understood the necessity of our involvement. Woman B is not an issue, great mother.
Any advice is helpful. My brothers are planning on contacting a lawyer but I'm looking for some advice until that happens. [link] [comments] |
| Employer refuses to allow me to wear a safety mask during Coronavirus outbreak! Posted: 25 Apr 2020 06:38 PM PDT Hi, im 18 and live in northeast Ohio, I currently work at a small independent pizza franchise (they have about 9 stores). Because pizza places generally only do pickup and delivery anyway, we are currently thriving during this crisis. Everyday feels busier than any day before this outbreak. So many people are sick of eating their own dinners that more and more people order from us everyday. The negative of that is that I interact and have physical contact with countless people a day (taking/giving them their food, money, debit cards, etc.). a lot of these people have face masks and gloves but a lot more don't. Our store manager and regional manager have told us at our store that they don't want us wearing safety masks because they don't want to "scare away the customers". I want to be as safe as possible when I interact with these people and they won't allow that. What should I do? I don't want to show up with a face mask anyway as I fear I might be fired instantly. Nowadays everyone is looking for a job and people are so disposable. But I also want to be as safe as I can and wear the recommended protection. They say on the news that health officials recommend wearing masks and gloves whenever someone goes into public. I have to interact with 100x more people than the regular person yet im not allowed to protect myself. What can I do. This has to be unnecessary danger right? Can I sue? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 08:12 PM PDT My ex-manager made sexual comments about me. I had a long-drawn-out argument with HR over her behavior. In the end, it was decided that she is upper-management and she is too valuable to lose, so I was terminated. I won my court case for unemployment, however. Quite easily, might I add. What could they fight, sexual harassment? Yesterday I found out my account was auto-logged in on one of the computer terminals. My company asked me to showcase my articles from time to time, so I must have left the browser open for it. Lo' and behold, the same exact manager not only logged onto my account without permission but also changed my username/password as well as my personal email address associated with the account. I must have had the log-in info somewhere for one of the interns. So now what? I need my account back. It's so malicious to hack and purposely change my account, but I do NOT have a good standing with this company. What do I do? [link] [comments] |

| Security Deposit Return Refused by Landlord Posted: 25 Apr 2020 06:16 PM PDT So, my family and I lived in this apartment for 13 years in Boston. We paid a security deposit of $1000. We've paid our bills on time and kept the house clean & never broke anything (This will be important later). Due to our landlord increasing rent too high, we found a new place in early April. After packing all our belongings and tossing out the furniture we don't need on the side of the road (the city of Boston picks up all trash and furniture on Fridays in my area), we moved everything into the new apartment. We expected to have a nice week after unpacking everything into the new apartment. Mid-April my former landlord shoots my father a text stating that after inspecting the house and calling a third party clean crew to pick up the property we put on the sidewalk (without asking us). She stated that the cleaning, waxing, and fixing done to the apartment costed her $1300, however, she would waive the $300 it required to wax and charge us $960 using OUR security deposit. We're both upset because she shouldn't have moved our trash and charged us for it when Boston provides the service for free. Despite the 13 years we've lived there, my father is upset because we didn't cause any damages to the apartment, properly cleaned it spotless and the landlord used our security deposit to "fix" everything. My father claims that she only wants to use our security deposit to refurbish what she felt needed changing (even though they were not broken). I don't know much about housing and laws here as my father handles that problem but is what she doing legal? Can she use our security deposit to change the unit we lived in even though nothing was broken and in good shape? [link] [comments] |
| (MA) Landlord sold house and tells me I have until June 1 to leave, is this allowed? Posted: 25 Apr 2020 12:40 PM PDT Boston MA- My landlord just texted me saying he'd need to terminate my lease for the end of may because he sold his house (year lease was through august), is this something I'm protected from at all or is it just fine to do? Especially during a pandemic I'm not thrilled to need to be finding a new place to live/sign a new long lease given my employer could cut pay or furlough. But such is life, just wanted to make sure! Thanks in advance. EDIT: my lease definitely doesn't have a clause for it specifically but has a very vague "lease may be terminated by any party hearto giving the other party a minimum thirty day notice" Thank you all for your assistance!! Will find a new home, just shitty timing. Appreciate all your help very much [link] [comments] |
| My daughters step father hit her and I need advice on what to do Posted: 25 Apr 2020 07:54 PM PDT My ex and I have been separated since before my daughter (5) was born. Because I wouldn't marry her she tried to exclude me from my childs' life. (I think this info is needed for you all to help me). She found and married another guy before my daughter was born and ever since has tried to lie and say he is the father. Btw I'm not white and they both are. Obviously everyone knows hes not. She even punishes my daughter for not calling him dad. I have mentioned to her its messed up to force that on her and its confusing, especially with what has happened now. While watching TV we saw a movie she saw with her mom. She said she wanted to watch it again, I said no prob. Put it on and she says "yeah this was my moms and mine special movie when stepdad(she said his name but leaving it out) hurt me. I had to calm down and play it out. I said, oh did you love the movie?! What snacks did you have? She told me and then I nonchalantly said "oh what happened with stepdad did you do something to him?" She said she was playing with her little sister (their 9mnth old biological daughter) too rough and he hit her. She plays with my dog too rough sometimes so I 100% believe this to be true. Especially since I wasnt forcing the issue or acting upset. (Hard af not to, the thoughts racing through my head were crazy). So now I need legal advice on what to do. I'm in az. This is what I've thought of so far. Email detailing the story of how I found out, stating this is one of the reason she should not be forced to call him dad, (I, her father neve hit her. I give myself a time out and tell her I'm in timeout and wont talk or play with her until she calms down from her fit. Her thinking has her dad makes her think its okay for him to hit her. I did tell her it's not okay and she can tell me even if her mother threatens her not to. I told her, it's a lie of she threatens her not to and she can always tell her mom anything about me and vice versa), and whatever you all suggest to include. Email for tracking purposes. During our exchange, I will record our convo, which is legal in az, and advise her what I found out, he can never do that again and any suggestions about what legal route I can take. That way it's in writing and have told her verbally. What do you all think? Am i over reacting? Is my plan a good plan? What should i include/exclude. Because of my battle to get joint custody i got good advice from my lawyer and dont go off, and pretend all my convos with her are being viewed live by a judge. Thank you all in advance [link] [comments] |
| Oncologist neglected my handyman with a very treatable cancer and he died Posted: 25 Apr 2020 05:56 PM PDT I have had the same handyman for years now who would help me with stuff around the house and was an all around great guy. He was diagnosed with a very treatable lymphoma back in October. His first chemo treatment was last week in April. He died this morning in his sleep. He was an all around great guy but did not speak any english and was a peruvian immigrant. He doesn't leave a wife or kids behind but he was very close to his sister. The doctor delayed the start of chemo for no reason and would consistently make him wait hours in the waiting room. He deserved to live and could have easily beaten this cancer but the doctor waited too long. I really think that his sister deserves justice and I want to know if there's anything she can do or we can help her with. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Apr 2020 06:43 PM PDT I've worked in a major metroplex in Texas for the same retail company for over a decade. Like many other companies my employer was furloughed indefinitely, and I promptly filed for unemployment. I've received two payments thus far: one partial payment for back pay for the two weeks malls were closed before furlough and one full payment for two weeks. I have not received enough payments to determine what I will be consistently paid for my unemployment. While the stay at home order remains in effect in Texas for the rest of the month, the city I work in has already extended two weeks past that. I received a call from my boss' boss asking that I return to work full-time despite the company remaining under furlough. I should note that district managers (who I report to) and above have remained working, just to handle online orders. A couple shopping malls have begun a pickup shopping system, however our company is not participating in those programs. I would strictly be returning to handle the influx of online orders (everyone spending their stimulus check responsibly! /s) and get the stockroom of multiple locations all over the metroplex back in order. I should note that I am not currently a store manager, I was one for years before taking a step back when my child was born for a more routine schedule in the stockroom. I believe because of my experience with each backroom location, I was asked to return before any of the store managers have agreed. I have an underlying medical condition that doesn't necessarily put me at risk but more so the medicine that I take for it does, according to my doctor. Not to mention we've been sheltering in place all this time, I am hesitant to start leaving the house again and risk bringing anything home to my family. So the crux of my legal question - can I return to work if the company as a whole remains under furlough? Can I be penalized (be fired or lose my unemployment) if I choose not to return to work before the stay at home order is lifted? Thanks in advance for any help! [link] [comments] |
