There is more to this story than you are telling us. Does your friend have his green card? I can't think of any legal way that he could have his wages cut by 50% unless he also received a cut to his scheduled hours of work, of which you make no mention. He should be able to make a complaint somewhere, either to a shop steward (if it's union wages) or to a labor board, civil or human rights commission. \n\nAside from that, I suggest that he get hold of one of those mini tape recorders that fit in your pocket, than find an opportunity to discuss what happened with this woman when she thinks they are alone together and she can speak freely. He could ask her why she did that and get her replies on tape. We are not talking courtrooms here so it doesn't matter whether its "legal evidence" or not. All he needs is something he can play back to his boss.\n\nGood luck to your friend and tell him to keep his ears open for another job. His days there are numbered no matter how this scenario plays out. The boss won't like being played for a fool, or having anyone know about it within the office. He'll very likely get rid of both of them in time.

Your son is an adult now and needs to make his own way in this world. I don't know his living situation, but I would recommend if anyone is supporting him financially it is time to stop. Enabling him to continue the lifestyle he is living is not in his best interest. When he is on his own, he will be made accountable for his actions. If he cannot hold a job, he will be fired. If he cannot pay his bills, he will be evicted. These things will show him what it takes to survive as an adult in this world. If you truly believe he is suffering from a mental illness you can recommend he go to counselling. However, unless he is a danger to himself or others, no one will be able to make him go to counselling. If it gets to the point where you fear for his safety or the safety of others, dial your local distress line or crisis team. They are located in your phonebook in the Emergency section. They will assess him and transport him if needed to a safe place until he is stabilized. Aftercare and follow-up will typically follow his progress for a brief time after his discharge. I wish you and your son the best of luck and good blessings.

He should report them to OSHA. They regulate work environment rules. I think they will be fined and will probably have some other type of recourse taken against them. \n\nI also think he could sue, b/c it's a health hazard (as a CA resident myself) i see that these things are taken pretty seriously, so I'm sure he'd have a case. I think it totally sucks that this is happening though, what about talking to another manager in the company or human resources? \n\nUnfortunately, that i know if, you can't quit and ask for unemployment. You have to be layed off. But he wouldn't really make that much money that way anyways..\n\nGood luck!

where does he live in the U.S.? Is he a citizen? Does he have a job? Are you still planning on having the baby here? What you will probably want to do is contact the United Way Information and Referral Line in whatever county he lives in to find out where to start.  It is usually easy to find the UW I&R's via http://www.211.org/ReferWeb/MainForm.aspx \n\nGood Luck\nand\nCongratulations on your baby!!

If he was on a raft for a month that would have been a news worthy item. This would have been in the local paper. The bad thing is most papers are out of business, but you might find out info at the library. Do you know when he was shot down or when he was found??The problem is that most of the service records were burnt in a fire in St Louis in the 70s. You can try to get his records if you are a close relative.

My wife's grandmother came and visited.  WHen she unpacked she came downstairs and said that a present for our daughter had been stolen from her bag.  So I called the airport and got in touch with the TWA and got forwarded to someone who could help me, etc etc etc...  \n\nFinally after hours and hours on the phone I was told that the complaint had to be filed with the departing airport.  So I made copies of everything and took them to the Grandmother explained what she had to do when she got back to Illinois, showed her all the paper work, explained it all again, etc etc etc. \n\nThe day before she left she came down with a small box and said she had put it in a different pocket of her suitcase than she remembered.  Here is the baby's present.\n\n\nWhen we went on our honeymoon (pre 9-11), our flight back got changed and we were supposed to go through Cinncinatti instead of Cleveland.  When we landed in Toronto I looked at the printout I made and realized that we only had 20 minutes to make the connection.  So we ran through the airport, barely made it and hopped on the plane with the ticketing agent barely looking at our boarding passes.  My printout was before the flight change and we went to Cleveland and our bags went to Cinncinatti. We got to Indianapolis about three hours before our luggage.  The airline was overly apologetic for allowing us to get on the wrong plane and brought our luggage to our apartment 60 miles away.

Yes, have him go to the "Safer Foundation" located just west of downtown, close to Union station. They have contacts will several of the large corporations in Chicago and can get him a good paying job. They usually have you work a couple of smaller jobs first until they can evaluate how well you work and then they can set you up with Commonwealth Edison, Peoples Energy, etc.

Reality hit "home".  Also, one of the stages of grief, is anger.\nAllow him to rant, without delving into politics. \nWar seems like such an abstract thing, until you find yourself having made the ultimate sacrifice of your child.\nHis feelings may change in time, and, they may not.  It's something he has to come to terms with, on his own.  And in his own time.\nJust be supportive of him in this time of need.  He may thank you someday for being a caring, "bleeding -heart liberal".  His Republican friends may be spewing the usual "gave his life for his country" type of thing...which, as a father, he may not want to be hearing right now.

He may have fallen into the "make more money to have a better life with my family" obsession/trap.  Get him to talk about "why" he's doing what he's doing.  If he's in that mindset, help him remember that money is a means to and end and that losing the end while pursuing the means is foolish.  Um, don't make him "feel" foolish, though.

If your daughter's husband travels so much, can't you use his car?  Also, check with local charities such as Catholic Charities and United Way, they may be able to help and/or point you in the right direction.  Also, check and/or put a posting on your local Craigslist.com - they have a section for "free" you can check and/or put a posting on there.

Ok you need to contact the VFW in your area it should be in the telephone book. Talk to them they will be able to advise you on where to go for help with the benefits. You should take him to your local Department Human Services to get food stamps and they may be able to supplement  some of his income for certain bills only. Look on his heart medication bottle and call the pharmacy ask them if the maker of that drug has a program that could help your uncle. If not they can lead the way to a program.

Let's see if I can remember is - I've been flying a lot lately:\n\nLadies and gentlemen, on behalf of ________ Airlines, I'd like to welcome you to our non-stop flight to _________.  Our flight time today is approximately ____ hours and ____ minutes.  As we prepare for take-off, I'd like to remind everyone to place their seatbacks up and return their tables to the stowed position.  All carryons should be stowed in the overhead bins or under the seat in front of you.  In a moment, we'll be showing a video about some of the safety features of our aircraft.  We ask that you remove the brochure from the seatback in front of you and follow along.  We'd like to remind you that this is a non-smoking flight.  Smoking or tampering with any smoke detectors is a federal offense.  As we prepare to taxi, all electronic devices must be turned to the off position and remain so until we are approximately 10 minutes into the flight.  The seatbelt sign is currently illuminated and any time it's illuminated, you must remain in your seat with your seatbelt fastened.  When we have reached a safe cruising altitude, the captain will turn off the seatbelt sign, but we encourage you to keep it fastened anytime you are in your seat.  Now sit back and relax as we show our safety video.\n\nHow's that?

He knows the pain of being jobless. And the importance of Job. Carrier seems to be his high priority now. \n\nGive him time to settle down.... and will come back to you (thats my estimate). \n\nI want to test my "estimate" , so please update me thru mail.
