How To Deal With Someone Trying To Ruin My Life?


A while back I moved from Wyoming to Oregon for a job. I don’t have any family in the area and no friends. I became friends with a coworker and thought things were looking up. We would go see movies and just hang out. She went through some tough stuff and I was there for her. I helped her pay bills and took her out when it was a particularly had day and would stay with her at night until her roommate was home because she was lonely and scared. About a couple of months back my life took a turn for the worse and all of a sudden she didn’t talk to me. I was worried and would call once a day and text her. Finally I asked her what was wrong and she told me that I needed to learn to back off. So i did. i was pissed and found out that she only wanted me to be there for her and not the other way around. I was even more mad. but I avoided her like the plague. Suddenly i was getting shifted to other units and one day went to the union to find out what was going on. The cops were there and questioned me on a bunch of stuff that I never did. I was served about a week later with a temporary restraining order. I still had no idea what the heck was going on. I was told by a supervisor that I needed to get rid of the job quick because the upper management was going after me and my license ( I am a nurse). Still no idea what was going on and why this was happening. Now I am homeless and jobless living off my aunt because I can’t find work and she is taking me to court for stalking when I left the area got rid of Facebook and deleted her and anyone affiliated with her number off my phone. I don’t know what to do. How do I deal with this?

Race/ethnicity For College Application?


Ok, so the application is asking me
1) Are you Hispanic or Latino?
Yes or no
2) Regardless of your answer to the prior question, please check one or more of the following groups in which you consider yourself to be a member:
American Indian or Alaska Native
Asian
Black or African American
Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander
White
Ok, so the problem is that I consider myself only hispanic and none of the other racial groups. I am not european. I am not african. I know I’m not asian. I’m not from the islands either. I’m not affiliated with any native american tribes. So what the heck am I supposed to answer?

Husband Terminated From Job… What Do We Do?


Long story shortened (I hope I can do it…)…
My husband worked for the same company for 25 years 6 months. At 23 years 5 months, he was told that the business was being sold to another company. They forced the employees to sign paperwork for the new company within 24 hours of notice or threatened that they would no longer be employed immediately if they did not. Everyone signed for fear of unemployment. The fact of the matter is, the business was not being sold to Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. The employees were. After a year and a half, Affiliated Computer Services, Inc., began to terminate original employees that were veterans of the original business. My husband became one of them, two weeks before I gave birth to our first child. They told my husband that they would have gotten rid of him much sooner, but wanted us to be able to have health insurance for the birth. Too bad they waited until March 22, 2011 and not any later. I gave birth April 4, 2011. Anyway, it was wrong for them to include the pregnancy at all in their termination conversation.
My biggest concern is that they told my husband that they could not afford to employ him any longer and that they were letting him go due to lack of work. Even though 6 weeks earlier he was working overtime.
My husband is 53, was 52 at time of termination. The Bank, which still owns the business, did not offer severance because ACS became my husbands employer. The bank has the pension plan, which had my husband been on the bank payroll at the 25 year mark, he would have been able to receive a much higher pension.
Anyway, what the heck can we do to resolve this? Most everyone that has been terminated has been over 40, but they are doing it in increments. They are letting people go a couple at time and waiting months in-between.
