1. Dealing with employment agencies
  
  In fact, in Canada it's actually and unequivocably illegal for recruitment agencies to charge fees to their applicants, whether or not they get jobs through said agencies. (I understand this is irrelevant as far as US law is concerned but it does show what A Bad Thing charging applicants is...

4. Contract signed to receive job training
  
  I suspect this part isn't legal. First, if you're categorized legally as an employee, they can't suddenly decide you're an IC. That would be illegal. Second, they must pay you at least minimum wage for all the work you perform for them. The law requires that. What they can do legally (and...

5. Contract signed to receive job training
  
  Contracts like this are not only usually enforceable, they are also quite common. Finally, you should keep in mind that there are no laws prohibiting your current employer from telling your prospective employer (and anyone else, for that matter) that you're trying to break your contract with them.

8. Dead Landlord's Son Moved In, Can I Evict The New Landlord From The Property For Being A Nuisance?
  
  It's blatantly obvious (to me at least) that your LL is trying to get you to leave without having to go through all the trouble and expense of a formal eviction. While it may seem to you that he will benefit from letting you live there, it's entirely possible that he wants to sell the house...

9. Is company provided equipment ever considered to be abandoned if the company fails to pick it up?
  
  Tell them (by email so's you can save what you said + their response, if any) that they have until X date (now until "X" being some reasonable amount of time, like a month or so) to get their property. And that if they haven't gotten their property by X date, you will at that point mail it to...

10. Terminated for cause
  
  Yes, I read of a case in New England where an employee was dismissed for stealing. For whatever reason, his employer didn't report him to the police. Nor did they disclose to prospective new employers why he'd been dismissed. So dismissed employee got a new job and guess what? He almost...

  So it was inappropriate of you to call her a little girl. It will remain as part of your work record forever, because you said it, because you admit to saying it. There's nothing you can do now to erase that fact.

17. How to deal with this housemate situation
  
  Legally she is a tenant. She pays rent (whether directly or indirectly, this is moot) and this is what makes her a legal tenant. Because she is legally a tenant, the only entity that the police will accept such a complaint from is either the LL or his/her agent. There is nothing you can do...

  OK. I hope you understand that no space in this house belongs to solely to you. All of your room is yours, and one third of the rest of the house (including the fridge) is yours. But that's it. About whether or not you can make one or both of them leave: you cannot. Only the LL and his/her...

  As I said before, the GF is a legal tenant now, whether or not she's on the lease - and whether or not the LL/Property Manager know about her living there. Because she's a tenant, the only person who has any control over whether or not she lives there are her, the LL, and possibly also the...
