Can the Post office assign my PO Box to someone else- even though I paid for a year.?
I paid for one year to have a PO Box. After 2 months the box was lock and assigned to someone else. The supervisor at the post office says they cannot give me the box because it was assigned to someone else. They can however give me a different box. I informed them that I spend over 500 dollars on business cards etc. Please advise as to the correct way to deal with this issue
1 AnswerLaw & Ethics9 years agoCan I with hold the landlady from getting her furniture?
I have been renting a furnished apt for the past 7 months- rent always on time-
I have been getting letters from the courts that the apt is in foreclosure and I communicated this with her. Her comment was dont worry about this I have a lawyer.
Then on 7-7-10 the apt went to auction- IT was Sold. On the 5th of July the AC broke-live in fla- and the landlady said that she wants nothing to do with the apt- she is walking away.
Now I am out 179.00 for repairing the AC- 90 degrees in apt- now I have to start paying the association dues or they will kick me out. I know my only options is to move out but I am looking into moving in this condo.
So my question is can I withhold her from removing her furniture so I can get repaid for the AC unit and the Association fees-$750 for 3 months? She was still the owner at the time. Can I also sue include moving fees as well?
I appreciate you input.
2 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoHome sold in Auciton 3 days ago.?
I have been living in a furnished apt since Dec,2009. I have a 1 year lease. I was getting notices that the apt is going into foreclosure. When I contact her- she live in columbia- she said not to worry becasue she has an attorney working on it. i've paid my rent on time.
in July of 2010 I got a notice that the apt is going up for auction, and it did- it was sold.
two days before the auction the AC unit in the apt broke I called her and she said that she is not spending any money on the apt. She also told me that she is walking away from the apt. After spending 179.00 with no reimbursement- she called me to ask if she can arrange for her son to pick up her furniture including the washer and dryer.
Can I ask for the 179.00 before she can pick up the furniture. I will also have to start paying for the association dues, which was due when she was the owner. Can I ask for that as well, including moving expenses?
So the bottom line is can i ask for the repairing of the AC unit, moving expenses and the
Association dues before allowing her son to pick the furniture?
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoWhat to do about job!?
I have been working in a large organization, for 2.5 years. In this particular department there are 9 people. Sara has been there 10 years and the others between 3-5 years. Sara has a reputation of making comments, about people's weight, their ethnicity, she even made a noose like with the telephone, because we were talking about President Obama.. I had previously told her( at least 4 times) that it is inappropriate to talk like that-and that she can get in trouble. One day Sara called a coworker a Black-sharpie (she is African American). This was said in front of the supervisor, and the supervisor said and did nothing. I was so angry that I could not sleep. The next day I told her that I did not want to hear any comments about race, religion etc. She apologized. Thinking that things were changing- I mentioned to her that my daughter is learning in school about Ti-messages. I also explained that it is stretching the muscles. Her comment in front of others was- so when your daughter was giving you a message did your lesbian tendencies come out? He said this 2 times. I told her again not to talk like that. I let her have it in front of other co-workers.
Later, when I went home my supervisor (she has been working there for 3.5 years) called me because she heard what happened. I explained to her what happened. She said that she will speak to Sara. My supervisor is well aware of how Sara is, because we have discussed it.-
No one has done anything about her behavior or reported it.
The next day my supervisor came to me and said that she spoke to her and told her that she cannot speak like that. My supervisor said that Sara is scared that I will report her. I told my supervisor she should be scared.
The sad part is that my supervisor awarded Sara Employee of the year. I want to go to HR but I do not know what the ramifications will be towards me. HELP!
Please note when my supervisor is not there I am in charge.

2 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoWhy are people so cruel to others?
Should I keep her friendship?
I have had an on/off friendship with a female friend for about 8 years. More off than on.
She has done several things to hurt my feelings for example:
I mentioned to her one day that her friends husband came on to me. Of course I did not respond to him. I dont date married men. She went on to his wife what I had said. As a result I cut the relationship with all parties.
After a year goes by I gave my friend another chance- so today she went on to tell me that her husband said that today i ****** day, and laughed. II was so pissed and hurt. She knows that my daughter is bi-racial. I told her that that comment was totally uncalled for. and that if her husband was present I would let him have it.
she laughed and said she did not mean to hurt my feelings. Her facial expression was totally surprised when I became assertive with her.
she plays dumb at times. My gut feelings is not to be her friend.
I dont know whats wrong with her.
I am also rethinking our relationship.
Please any suggestions.
Thanks

About 5 months ago I paid 2000 -(car has 70,ooo miles) to replace the head gasket on a 2001 toy Camry.
After 3 weeks my car overheated and the mechanic said it was a lose hose. he fixed it but he told me to check the radiator and to make sure that there was fluid in there. I did. 3 days ago again the car overheated now he tells me that I did not properly close the radiator cap. I told the guy that he is wrong I did close it correctly.
NOw he tells me that I blew the heads again and want to check for damage. He also said that he might be able not to charge me for labor but I would have to pay for the parts. I am out of warrant.

1 AnswerDrawing & Illustration1 decade agoI need advise Please!!?
I am an assistant to an supervisor and have been working there for about 8 months. Currently there are 4 other people who work in the same department and they have been working there longer than I. My supervisor is friendly towards the other employees, but not towards me. Her attitude is flat and does not attempt to get to know me as a person. Not that we have to be friends but being polite goes a long way especially since it is a small company. I have asked her if I am doing a good job she says yes. So I leave it as that. However, her indifference is causing me to become uncomfortable at work.
I am a go getter and have been in all of my jobs. I feel that she might be jealous so I have backed off and not but so much effort on my job. I would do the required work. But her attitude is still the same standoffish. I do not know what to do. Please advise.
Please not she is quick to contradict. Note I have tried to be friendly with her but she does acknowledge it.

3 AnswersPsychology1 decade agoowe money on a used car?
I have a 2001 Toy Camry which I have blown the head gasket. I have 70,000 miles on it.
Problem is I own more than what it is worth (8000). It will take about 1500-2000 to repair it. Hopefully that is all that is wrong with it. I cannot not afford to repair it but I need a car. I went to several mechanics and they all told me the same thing. One mechanic told me that if I fix the gasket later on the head might need repair and that is another cost.
What to do. I called Toyota co and they said I am out of warranty. SOL!
Should I have the bank repo it and get another car or fix it and hope that nothing else is wrong with it?
Please I need your advise. I understand if I repo my credit will suffer from this. But I do not know what to do.
Thanks
