    Thank you very much...I only work part time, by choice. I am semi retired.
    And I do not have experience driving to NYC.
    I already have a part time job lined up to start in a week.

    I can pay the $500 bill, but I want the company to do the right thing and pay it, even if it means a judge has to force them to do so.
     
    ethos, windsmith and Big Don Thank this.

    Yes, that would be a pm. It is the email system that is part of the ttr web site. I would guess the system administrator would have access to the email system.

    PM's are something no one else can see.

    Profile posts on the other hand, if this is what you're actually referring to, are readable by everyone.

    But our PM's are not referred to as PM's anymore.:(
    I like most things about this new system, but there are a couple that I really don't care for. The PM situation is one of them, and the "Follow" is another one. I guess nobody can just be "friends" anymore.:confused:

    My bad.....I was dead wrong on my answer. Starting a conversation is not a pm.

    The hearing was today. The company was a no show, and the company did not even file a response.......the judge said they had been properly notified of the hearing. The Judge gave me what was fair, and was what I wanted. I wanted the company to pay the $508 medical bill that was incurred when I went to the company clinic to be treated for a minor work injury.

    At the hearing, the judge asked me to tell him what had happened. I did that and then he said he would order the company's insurance carrier to pay the medical bill.

    Apparently the company did not believe they had a valid reason to dispute my claim.....or else they don't respond to low cost claims, other than to just deny them. That is

    Anyway, I am happy with the outcome. I guess I won't pursue a wrongful termination claim, as I would never work for that DM again anyway.

    I just passed my Penn school bus test at Penn Dot today, and have a permit to drive school bus with a company here. Will start Friday trading on a bus route.

    Two for two today....Nice!
