Copy and paste the content of my petition in an email to Patty Murray, the Chair of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions. Here's where you can write her an email: https://www.murray.senate.gov/write-to-patty/ Spread the hashtag, #20kraiseforteachers on social media. Share my petition on social media. Here's the url: https://www.change.org/20kraiseforteachers In short, here's my logic. My references are in my petition. In 2019, Harris proposed a $13,500 raise for all teachers on the campaign trail. Biden proposed a $60,000 minimum salary for teachers.

I’m pissed.
Company gave me 2 different checks to buy a bunch of stuff for the job. Laptop, softwares etc. The deposits didn’t go through to my bank, which I didn’t know until the next day, after I bought the stuff. So I confronted them about it, and got into this whole thing. they’re saying I need to pay more money to them for them to be able to give me my money back. some screenshots Edit: thank you everyone, I of course at this point know this is a scam, but that doesn’t make me less pissed, lol. I contacted my bank, and reported the incident to the FTC.

Post office job bait and switch?
My son- (25M) has been looking for full time work since November when his seasonal job ended. Has an English degree from WVU- I know- he knows- almost waste of paper and lots of cash. Applies for a posted full time job with the USPS. Gets email with “job offer.” Passes background check, drivers history etc…. Goes to be fingerprinted today.

He was floored because he rightfully assumed it would be in…

Edit: I was taking my colleague work on top of my duties because she was having personal leave for 6 months and yet my boss didn't mention my dedication… I was flabbergasted.
Hello all. I joined a new company last year. It’s a multi million dollar business that has moved nearly all of its employees remote because of the pandemic. I am currently in preparations for my first annual review. We have a formal survey to complete, with a numbered score being assigned to a rating scale. The manager then adds their opinion after you submit your self-evaluation. One of the questions was about attendance. I gave myself the rating equivalent of “exceeds expectations” and my manager gave me “generally adheres to standards”. I called off a total of three days last year. The first time was for me being sick, and I was out for two days in a row. The second was a single day for my daughter. Am I missing something? I thought missing three days in an entire year was exceptionally good? Am I never supposed to be…
