California FMLA Maternity Leave Claim?

A really good friend's wife applied for a position in a different department within the same company she works while on Matenity Leave. The interview went extremely well. At the end she told the interviewer she has still on Maternity Leave and the response she received was, If I knew you were on Maternity Leave I wouldn't of even interviewed you. Am I wrong to think this is 100% discrimination and should not have happened? My main question is how should she write the email to HR? Dear HR, I would like to bring to your attention the discrimination that took place during my interview with DumDum. I feel that I was completely Discriminated against due to being on Maternity Leave. What DumDum said to me during the interview has made me extremely uneasy, as I believe this became DumDum's instant justification to no longer consider me for the position…

Juggling job interviews/offers

I’m looking for work (marketing) and have a few interviews coming up. I’m in a weird limbo where I’ve gone for some big amazing jobs and some average ok jobs. I think I could be offered an average job rather quickly, but if by some lucky star I can, a few weeks after I’ve gotten the average job, end up with an amazing job can I quit the new average job? Would they hate me/make my two weeks notice hell? It seems so poor form to quit a week or two after getting a ‘serious’ ‘professional’ job but I want to look after me and not waste amazing opportunities…. What can one do in these situations to not be shot to sh*t with anxiety ? (Live in Australia btw) (For context amazing job- national gallery, zoo, ballet marketing … average- retail marketing)

My job pays OK (17$/hr) and I always can work 40hrs. I still hate it. I’m a making mistake by quitting?

I work at a box factory. I don't have a car, and it's in walking distance. I was at first hired to do some basic monkey work- cutting large blocks of foam into smaller blocks. But the company ended up moving all the non-woodworking departments to a different city. Obviously, I couldn't make the switch. But they offered me a new position and a 1$ pay raise. (That I only got about 3 months in but its retroactive so fine) I do cleaning now, basically I throw away trash and clean toilets, and basic yard work, weed wacking and mowing. Been there for a year and about 5 months now, been the cleaner for around 4 months. I hate it. I listen to a lot of YouTube while working. It's the only thing I really love about my job. But listening to these people make a living talking about the…

My boss won’t let me quit to see my sick fiance

My boss won't let me quit to be with my sick fiance. My (22M) fiance (21M) currently lives in America, we've been together for 2 years. The plan is that he moves in with me, it's been his dream ever since we started talking about moving in together. I recently got a job at a grocery store, I started off with a year contract with a 2 month trial period. Due to bad performance I got pressured to sign a new contract without being given the chance to read it. This contract lasts 6 months and has a trial period of 1 month. My fiance got very sick, he can hardly breathe on his own. He gets abused by hospital staff for being transgender. I told him that I wanted to be there for him seeing as I'm the only one that's fit enough to fly. All his family members…

something crazy

I work at a McDonald's and I don't plan on staying there but I would like to see change before I leave. Can anyone get me in contact with someone who knows how to start a union. I want to see friends and coworkers benefit even when I move on.

“Pay will be negotiated during the interview” so 10 dllrs an hour to be a babysitter, dogsitter,chef and house cleaner? What a steal.
