    Emotional support animals in rentals?

    Favourite answer:

    The ADA has not been amended to allow emotional support animals in rentals.

    Emotional SERVICE animals are allowed in most rentals and it's not based on the ADA, it's based on HUD regulations.

    The difference between a support and service animal is that service animals provide aid to disabled individuals.  The aid can be in the form of support.

    As a landlord, whenever you are asked to allow an emotional SERVICE animal, you can require documentation from the tenant's doctor.  You can get the correct form from the landlord association in your area.  This won't tell any medical information but will certify that the person meets the criteria of being disabled.

    Additionally, as a landlord, under HUD, you are allowed to decline the emotional SERVICE animal if it's a financial hardship - such as can't get insurance because of a breed restriction or the unit is too small to properly care for the animal.

    Yes, I have seen emotional SERVICE animals in a dorm room.

    But dorm rooms are not covered by HUD regulations, so that's probably a policy from school to school.

    Are my intentions well-meaning?

    I asked my gold-pendulum; it indicates

    I have a strong potential to be a great 

    online tarot-card reader. It's not just so I 

    can stay home all day. It pays twice as much

    as most other jobs I can do, and I'd be 

    happy to share those profits with my family. 

    Isn't that the goal of work, to find

    something suitable that is stable, 

    it pays well and won't break your mental-health? 

    So far, most jobs I've tried 

    have caused me depression.

    What is a good site to search for apartments for rent for my fiance and I?

    Really, all we need is a one bedroom lol, it would be nice to have a second room for a potential roomie to help lower the rental cost, but we dont NEED it. With splitting rent, I could possibly afford spending about up to $450, but he is probably able to spend a little less. 

    All the sites I come across have $1k+ rent... because they are luxurious. Granted, i know many appreciate that feature but I am trying to find something affordable. I would like to compare non-luxurious places (when I say "Luxury" I am simply talking about the unnecessary addition of pools and extra rooms, yes I would like a decent place to call home but I do not want a super rich place).

    So, any advice/tips/fingers pointing in the right direction? 

    Thank you in advance!

    How do I deal with senseless workplace drama?

    I've worked for my company 5 years. Recently we are very short staffed. My boss had confronted me with things " he had been hearing" from my co workers and said I should come to him instead of telling them. Only thing I mentioned to my coworkers was that I felt overwhelmed with the schedule, nothing more. I should point out that I'm very loyal and dependable. Ive came in countless times when they were short on staff and never called in a single day. I even got an employee of the year award one year and several raises. Now I feel disrespected and unappreciated. The boss had put up a sign that that if anyone has any issues with the schedule to come to him and not the others. I feel like that was directed at me. Its like beating a dead horse, I only have to be told once.  It seems like some of the coworkers think its funny and get some kind of satisfaction from it. Sad part is, I thought they were my friends only to go behind my back. I have no idea why they have done this to me. Any ideas as to what I should do? Its getting to where I dread to go to work and I'm beginning to understand why nobody works here for long.

    why is the news seeming to be very vague or even withholding the real reason that Bitcoin crashed 15 percent lately?

    it was due to Turkey deciding to ban crypto currency transactions AND China announcing a Yuan crypto currency and they are fearing that if China does their own digital currency than that means the US will probably follow suit?

    I need advice on unemployment appeal! HR lied about a no call no show...?

    My employer has a zero excuse 12 point attendance policy. I have a chronic health condition that I found out from my doctor should have been covered by FMLA the whole past year that I've been having issues, she brought up FMLA when I told her I was about to point out due to the condition. I didn't get covered until I was at 11 points.

    February comes and the artic vortex hit our area. On the morning of February 18 I went out to start my car for work and my battery was dead, I'm sure due to the subzero temperature. I immediately called work and let them know that I was going to be late and the reason, I figured I would be able to get a ride or a jump pretty quick. I was wrong, by 6:54 I knew I wasn't going to be able to get there by 7:30 (it's a 30 minute drive on good days and the roads were still pretty bad) so I called and left another voicemail as well as text my HR manager letting her know what happened and I understood that was my final point. She texted me back and said that she was 'sorry things didn't work out' and she 'wished me the best'. I filed for unemployment and received a letter from the state saying I was denied for 602-misconduct. My employer said that I was a no call no show on February 19, the day AFTER I pointed out! I sent in my appeal already, any advice going forward would be great! 

    And I was with the company for 10 years and made $65,000 yr.

    How long would you wait for a response ?

    Favourite answer:

    I’d wait for as long as it took for him to respond. A long distance relationship doesn’t have to make people insecure, and most people in a five year relationship have the confidence in each other and the relationship to not freak out about an occasional delay in a response. Have you ever considered that maybe he just doesn’t want to talk to you when you call? Or maybe he’s in the middle of an online gaming session and doesn’t want to be interrupted. Heck, maybe he’s still asleep at 9am on a Sunday and actually hasn’t seen the message and call. But personally I wouldn’t freak out about it at all.

    Am I right to be upset about my manager texting me when I’m off the clock?

    I work for a company that has around 30 employees. The work schedule is Monday through Friday. The company is closed on weekends. There’s been times that my manager asks me if I can stay late and I have worked overtime even some Saturdays. I have felt stupid going on Saturdays because it seems like I’m the only employee that goes while everyone else is enjoying their weekend. Anyways, my manager has texted me when I’m off from work to ask my availability to work. This is something she can tell me at work face to face but she textos me at random times. Even one day during my lunch break she texted me to ask me a stupid question.

    Well today she really pissed me off. It’s Saturday and she sends me a text around 4 pm asking if I could go to work tonight because of an emergency situation. I told her I had things to do because it’s not fair that I have to rush to work on my day off. I’ve already sacrificed my Saturdays to help her while all the other stupid employees had the weekend to themselves. Did I do the right thing to say no this time or was I suppose to drop everything and get to work? If she’s a manager she needs to fix whatever problem there is. She gets paid more than me, while I get paid mínimum wage.

    One time she made me clean the cafeterias of the company and that’s not my role. I don’t want to continue being a doormat and being available without ever having time for myself. Was I suppose to drop everything to help her or I have the right to my own space ?

    Should I refinance or sell?

    I currently have a mortgage of $95.000 balance.  The house is worth $325.000 according to my realtor. It wouldn’t be hard to sell but it would be hard to find our next house with the upgrades that we want. We have the option of looking for a new build too. Or should we refinance and then sell later?? I don’t even know how that option would work other than lower our rate and monthly payment. But we are set in getting a newer home. We don’t have any debt other than a car payment. Stable job, 401k, and some savings.
