QUESTIONS

  • I got an interview at this Job about a month and half ago I worked there 4 half days. Right after the 4th day she than told me I don't need you anymore. I'm not hiring you. Told me she had my hours written down. She's gonna pay me sometime soon. I texted her a week later asking what's going on she said she's gonna talk to the owner. Didn't hear back. I than contacted her last Monday and she told me she was not gonna pay me since I wasn't there more than two weeks. That's illegal right ?? What can I do to get my money ?

They had someone here earlier to try and locate the problem, but now the floor is saturated(carpet and the paint is bulging on the ceiling and the wall from water underneath.

They didn't even bring a fan over, and its getting wetter and wetter, I'm afraid that mold will start growing because It is very hot here, perfect for growing mold in wet plaster.
  • we had no electric in one room of our rental for 9 months. It would sometimes flicker when we jumped on the floor or slammed the door. We contacted the landlord several times to repair it. We have several text messages stating such. The cost to repair was more than 50% of our rent. We gave our 30 day notice on July 2 for August 1st after months of trying to get this repaired. Our landlord checked us out on Aug 1 stating everything was perfect and we would receive all of our deposit back in 14 business days. Our total deposit was $1850- we received $300. They stated we did not give them notice
