its funny cause if you reversed the situation all you would have to do is call jessy jackson and make some noise and everyone would be boycotting the company and saying that they are racist, even if there were no racist motivation involved

I'm not sure if you mean YOU are moving out of state or if the COMPANY is moving out of state.  If the company is moving I  would check with your companies HR department then check your rights on your states unemployment website.  They will give you the run down of what classifies as justifiable termination of employment.  I was working for a non profit agency through a local hospital and when I decided to leave because the non profit was going out of business and their were no other jobs I qualified for at the hospital they would not give me UE.  I probably should have let them fire me, however I did not want that to be hanging over my head with potential employers.

Check with Aiken Tech to find out what company they reported the default to, send the proper documentation about your illness so you can be removed from the default list to a deferred list.  Have them put everything in writing and you keep all communications in writing and see if you can reapply once the paperwork is cleared up

you should contact the store manager. If the manager doesn't provide any answers for you ask for human resource number or find it out yourself and just explain the situation to them. How you were missed informed. they should help you especially if you mention cancelling your membership

Are you currently covered, and thinking of a change?  Have you had any gaps in your coverage?\n\nIf you aren't covered at all, generally the Blue Cross/Blue Shields will cover even those with pre-existing conditions.\n\nIf you are covered and looking at a change, you may have rights under a federal law called HIPAA, that guarantees access to insurance.

Well, that's a tough one since anything other than the truth may come back to haunt you, and isn't exactly ethical.\nYou might stretch a little and say that they were cutting back their workforce and you got caught in the reduction process.\nBut if you did get terminated for poor performance, you'd better make sure that you improve whatever it was that got you in hot water to begin with.\nGood luck!

Chapter 7 = 10 Years after discharge or dismiss\nChapter 13 = 7 Years after discharge or dismiss\n\nWanna get rid of it? \n\nThis worked for me: http://www.expert-credit-advice.com/credit_repair_service.htm\n\n\nIt was the 1st item to come off my TransUnion report. \n\nMine was 3 years dismissed, and from what I understand if its a recent bankruptcy, it harder to be removed and you will have to wait until at least 18 months after dismiss or discharge, and even then it may take some effort....

I agree that more information about your current and previous condition will make it easier to explore health insurance possibilities. If you live in the United States and were part of a group health plan, you might be able to take advantage of protections offered by the 1996 Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). If you were part of a group health plan in the past two months, then a new health plan may not be able to deny you coverage because of your illness. Further, any time you were under the old group plan will be deducted from a new plan’s waiting period.\n\nHIPAA also limits how far back an insurance company can look-back for a pre-existing condition, in most cases. They shouldn’t deny you coverage because of a hospitalization five years ago. You might want to look into high-risk insurance pools – where people who have been denied coverage band together to get breaks on health insurance.\n\nThe best way to find the answers you need is to talk with local qualified health insurance agents. Chances are, they’ve fielded the questions you have about insurance and have helped people in your exact situation. MostChoice.com is an excellent way to reach state-licensed agents in your area. There’s no cost or obligation to you, and you can also look at health plans and prices from companies like Blue Cross Blue Shield, Humana, and Aetna. \n\nYou can find it here: http://www.mostchoice.com/health-insurance.cfm\n\nGood luck,\n\nBarnes@MostChoice.com

Just call around... Just ask if they use the sliding scale for uninsured people.  I went to one that normally charges $120 an hour but I wasn't working at the time and could only afford $40 and he agreed to see me. So just call around and state your situation and I'm sure people would help you out.

If the discharge was not dishonerable you can probably get it changed yourself.  If it was a general discharge just contact DOD.

I would search on there name on the internet too see if anyone has posted having any problems.  You can also check with your state attorney general to see if there on the up and up.\n\nThe BBB is ok but if they are members of the BBB and pay there dues they let some pretty lousy companies get away with bad practices way longer then they should.\n\nIf you are trying to repair your credit have you gotten a copy of your credit report from one of the 3 reporting agencies?  Alot of times they have programs to help you learn what effects your credit and give advice on clearing it up.

I signed a contract for a fitness club too last year and immediately regretted it.  They didn't mention it to me, I had to ask but I did have a three month grace period where I could break my contract,(which I did) and I lost my initial fee, but that was it.  I am Canadian; I don't know if you are, and if the laws are different.  Call them up and pretend you are a possible new client and ask if they offer a trial period or some way to get out of the contract if not satisfied.  Also check  the  fine print maybe it says something there.    Good luck they sound like bully's, it's just wrong

Sounds awful, mate. You do have a chance with this but, as ever, the devil's in the detail.\n\nWitnesses to poor working practices would help but aren't essential. Your employer was required by law to publish and comply with a Health and Safety Policy Statement, setting out company policy to ensure safe systems of work. If they were as slipshod with the paperwork as they obviously were on the job then that improves your chances dramatically. Essentially they would then have difficulty in demonstrating - as they will probably try to pretend - that they were a conscientious employer who took all reasonable steps to discharge their duty of care towards you. A court would instead infer a cavalier or inadequate regard to health and safety. \n\nAlso what, if any, health and safety element was included in your induction training for the job ? If little or none that could again easily lead to the inference that they have failed in duty of care.\n\nEven if the employer can tick both of these boxes, you aren't lost. Your medical evidence should not only support the injuries you've suffered but establish a timeline for the development of your condition. Taken together with the statement you've prepared the inference will clearly be that your condition is attributable to the workplace. Causation is obviously very important here and they may try to suggest that your condition is due to other factors. Alternative causation is an old favourite and can range from the obvious - any birth defects, ever in a road accident - to the bizarre. Once had a case like this where wheelchair using client was asked ' I understand you're a keen parachutist ' - the brief was reading the wrong file ! Your evidence together with the medical timeline consistent with workplace causation should be enough to defeat anything like this.\n\nSo, yes, this can be done without direct witnesses from the job. As the others have said these things tend to be a real grind and are rarely resolved quickly. Still, don't be completely disheartened, they might realise they're on a loser and offer a settlement, rather than take the hit on legal costs. Unfortunately it is more common for employers to play these things long in the hope that you do become disheartened and withdraw. \n\nFor what it's worth you do seem to have a reasonable case and it would be a shame to give up on it, especially since you've already shown a lot of perseverance to get this far. Bad employers like this should be brought to book and you deserve some acknowledgement of what you've been put through with this. All the very best with the case.

yea possibly... you need to make sure it's thoroughly documented in your medical record.  your initial complaints, follow-ups, everything... and if not, go in and complain before you get out... i got out last year and wasn't expecting disability but actually ended up with 30%...

"Termination" here, as it is usually applied with this sort of case, simply refers to the end of your employment with the company and does not infer that you have been dismissed for any reason in particular, be it "termination", the conclusion of your contract, or your deciding to quit.  Since your contract has simply expired and was not renewed, that is considered the termination of your employment with this particular company.  The non-compete clause still applies, so for a term of one year you are not allowed to be employed in the same field within a certain, specified radius of the company's offices.  Be careful how you gauge that distance, though; most companies do it as a straight line instead of driving distance.  One of the doctors I work with's husband went through a huge ordeal with this sort of thing, ended up paying an insane amount in court costs and what not.  The most important thing is to read the clause, and the entire contract carefully.  If this doesn't help, check with an attorney or someone at the Better Business Bureau in your area (you should be able to find information about them online).
