You said "warehouse" but we have to figure that you weren't in Sam's or Costco, since you spoke with the owner of some sort of private business so we assume that's what it was. And if it was a private business where you had the ability to load 25 cases of bottled water on a cart in the first...

And tell us why this is such a bad thing. Did your abusive ex boyfriend do something to you after this incident? Why are you trying to reach the doctor? From experience, you can have some pretty loopy delusions while lying in a hospital bed getting an IV of something like benadryl. were you...

I once had to deal with this issue with an employee who happened to be a very prickly minority. His problem was not body odor, it was too darn much cologne. He was a heavy smoker, and would bathe himself down with cologne after an (unauthorized) smoke break. We dealt with it for a long time. He...

Yes, you're enraged. We notice that. Bet if you've talked to your husband, he's noticed too. However, he has, from what you say, not yet said he will not send your child back al all, he has just said HE's not coming back. Keep screaming, keep threatening to turn him in for all his crimes, and...

Wait, please. Okay, I'm old, I've had LOTS of surgery. With and without medical coverage. What kind of surgery, what kind of bill? All in one whop, to one single service provider, or as is the usual case, in and out and with a whole lot of incremental bills which might eventually total up to...

Chicagogsh, if this is a misprint and you are just "not good AT letting go" this is your sign and I think you realize it. I also think strongly that this would be not only a good reason for you to break off your relationship with this person and her family, but to make a ptich, during this...

I from a background in child development and counseling would say that what a child acts out is what they have had exposure to. If a child came up with the idea of getting someone else to put his genitals in their mouth, he saw it somewhere or heard of it somewhere. Someone around them is either...

Unless you live in a very large place, which there are not so many of them in Mississipii, most of it's pretty rural or small town, everyone around you including the local police already know all about you and your wife and your living arrangements. If you call the local police, it will make you...

In this particular case, which was in heavy traffic I'd have had to allow about twenty feet between me and the car in front of me at that light. But I'm just being subjective, know nothing about the traffic laws in any state except what I was told. Honestly, I was just speaking to the poster's...

Well, you never know. That's just what the insurance agent said to me. When this exact thing happened to me, my insurance had to pay for the car I hit (I was standing on my brake, sitting stock still at a traffic light when the car behind me hit me and I was jammed into the car in front of me.)...

Just a comment here, I have seen some amazing police accident reports. They don't have much importance in the resolution of the claim. Don't worry about the police officer being on their side. If you hit someone in the rear end, it is on you. Even if you were pushed into the car in front of you...

And that (unemployment approval) is where any and all questions about whther you were given an opportunity to improve and not be terminated, etc. would come into play. Terminated for poor performance does not eliminate unemployment insurance which is fairly generous in New York and Connecticut...

Excellent advice! I can just hear in everything being posted how desperately this dad wants to control the action, or at least get it told like he wants it told. And that so seldom works in a courtroom situation! And it may cause the whole thing to go south severely. Having a therapist might be...

As someone who has been involved with mediation, I would implore you, concerned dad, to stop, back off, stop undercutting and mistrusting and trying to run this thing without your attorney. If the court gets the slightest bit of a hint that you are there in the background, trying to pull off...

I strongly suspect that you are also living in a totally miserable situation. Long term, you are probably sacrificing your health, as well as your years of time on this earth. My spouse was in a long time long term situation like this. Found out that gambling was very much involved. Still did...
