from her EMPLOYER . .
SHe actually asked her employer for a cash advance and they gave it to her against her check.
What to do when employer lies to get
I was hired with the "promise" and "guarantee" that I would be allowed to go home to work.  Refused however to put it in writing (should have known right?).  Shame on me!!!  Anyway, several different reasons to date as to why I have not gone home to work.  Interviewed another person for another position TO WORK FROM HOME today.  Is this discrimination?  Any advice?  Thank you in advance.

Tell HR person you insist on speaking NOW to someone who does have the authority to make a decision and have them cut a check today to be sent to you by messenger TODAY. If they bumble and stumble around, then tell them you are now starting legal proceedings -- and do it. Small Claims Court is easy if you have documentation, and pretty cheap.

My husband's employer did the same.
They also offered an alternative of taking a full week off without pay over the summer. That way the employees were able to file for unemployment benefits. It ended that so many people choose the full week off that the employer choose the week and closed the facility altogether which also reduced their other expenses and prevented a second request of the same which they had said was a possibility.

I would do it. If not enough people do it they will inevitably let go of atleast a few people and your hubs might be one of them. This is what they later did at my husbands employer because so many people complained about the unpaid time off.
since the employer has the most to gain from...
denying benefits, I would say that if the former employer would like to, they could pay for the drug testing; therefore, no tax payer money wasted on drug testing and, perhaps, drug addicts get no more of my tax money. It's an idea anyway.
Do you pay her taxes like a good employer?!

Advice on getting money from former employer
If anyone has had experience with this, could you offer your advice?  My husband took a new job back in the end of January.  His prior employer required him to have a phone through T-Mobile with unlimited data.  His last phone bill was $200 plus there was a $200 contract break fee, a contract he was required to sign by his company.  He has filed the necessary papers to be reimbursed for the phone bill; however, we just don't have an extra $400 to pay this phone bill ourselves to wait around for the former company to deign to pay his expenses.  He has called the HR person and while she is not in charge of approving the expense report, it doesn't seem like she is doing much to ensure that it does.  I am worried that T-Mobile will turn this over to collections and therefore affect our credit score.  Any advice?
Ask the prospective employer if he will accept

a faxed copy until your mom can mail you yours.  Most employers take up to 2 weeks to process paperwork and actually start an employee. 


I used to do orientations where I worked about 10 years ago.  There are other acceptable forms of ID, but you may not have those either.  Can't hurt to ask about the faxed copy!


I would send copy of it to my employer. -(sm)-
Just to let them know what the human cost is for their greed, chintzy paychecks, lack of work, and lack of resptct for their employees.
If my employer only knew the depth of my devotion...
Here I sit working and missing the Mardi Gras parade. *sniff*

But it's money, which is more important than beads.
