S. O. Lewis, Esq. asked:


OK, you’ve been laid off.  Whether it is your first time ever being terminated, laid-off or fired, or not, it is generally not a good feeling.   Understood.  How you handle your new temporary situation, both mentally and actively, will be the single largest factor effecting whether you come out on top.  It is not untrue that if mentally embraced, the job termination can be the single best thing that has ever happened to your career and future.  (If you have decided you are not going to seek re-entry to the land-of-the-employee, but really think it’s time for a change for the better, consider following the lead of those who have successfully done so, the tried and true, and learning what the top business moguls consider to be the best types of businesses to build.)

 

Post-Lay-Off Unemployment Benefits

Some obvious points to keep in mind:  First and foremost, always* file for unemployment insurance with your state agency, even if you were seemingly fired for cause (meaning, “alleged” misconduct) –  unless you are fully confident that you did steal that company computer that they accused you of, then don’t bother, and leave well-enough alone.  Many people are unaware of the fact that some types of alleged misconduct, although valid reasons for termination (your employer, generally, does not even need to provide a reason for letting you go), do not rise to the legal definition of “misconduct” needed to be disqualified from Unemployement Benefits in many states.  (For instance, too many sick days oftentimes does not rise to the level of misconduct needed for one to be disqualified from Unemployment benefits.  Who knew?  Well, I did, but most others did not.)  Likewise, poor performance, if not purposeful, is likewise not a valid disqualifying reason.  Stealing, violence on the job, or overt and unreasonable insubordination, however, may be valid disqualifying reasons. Virtually every state puts their unemployment information online, and most if not all allow you to initiate the process online.  [*If you lost your job due to an inability to perform because you have a disability or medical impairment that actually prevents you from being able to perform any job on a full time regular basis, then Unemployment benefits might not be the best avenue.  You may be eligible for Social Security Disability benefits. In addition, please note that collecting Unemployment Insurance benefits is not a bar to starting a business, if that is your choice, so long as you continue to meet your obligations required to be eligible for your benefits (i.e. job search, willing and able to work, etc.) - this is particularly helpful in light of the fact that any business start up with merit will take some building time, and being able to receive your benefits will help you survive while you build your business.  Contact this author if you need more information on whether this applies to you.]

 

Severance Pay

Secondly, don’t expect an automatic severance package.  There is a misguided notion that we as employees are entitled to one if laid-off – not true.  In fact, by and large people don’t get them at all.  (Again, unless you have a written employment contract requiring your employer to provide a severance package, it is not required to do so.)  In addition, if you believe you have any legal claims against your employer (not the norm), be aware that generally, acceptance of any proffered severance package typically includes a release or waiver of any and all claims.   That being said, however, even if a severance package is not offered, you can certainly request one!  At times it is true that the squeaky wheel gets the oil.  And if a package was offered, you can certainly negotiate for more or differing terms.

 
Medical Benefits

If you had health benefits via your employment, recognize that they may very well terminate on your last day on the job.  COBRA is generally available, but the cost is a heavy burden to you as it can often be as high as 102% of the entire premium, much of which was previously paid for by your employer but will no longer be.  However, if you or anyone in your family previously covered under your employment provided medical benefits has medical issues, without COBRA, you may find it impossible to get coverage for them.  Not to mention, as we age, it is amazing how medical issues seem to readily crop up, and without medical insurance, financial ruin can very easily be the result.  Additionally, COBRA is only available, generally, for 18  months (exceptions apply), so make sure to use this time to research your private options while searching for that next job or starting out on that business opportunity you kept procrastinating about starting before.  More about this later.

 

Cardinal Rule:  Stay in Control

Although the mental shock that comes to some people after lay-off can take days to slough off, it is very important to avoid some bad habits that can crop up and take hold.  I’m talking about not treating this new situation as if it were a vacation or a period of grief – don’t sleep in until noon, don’t party like a rock star 4+ nights/week, etc.  Not only will your funds likely be tight, you really don’t know when you will next have a job or when that new business you think you may start will start seeing black.  To protect your best interests, make sure to keep your head on straight, and to do that, you need to eat right, get ample sleep (8-9 hours preferably), and get fresh air.  Lack of sleep, too many late nights and generally not taking care of yourself will inevitable wear on your psyche, which has already gone through a mental hit with the lay-off. 

 

It can also do wonders for your motivation and future success to avoid naysayers – those with negative opinions on whatever your planning may entail, tend to be amongst the most unsuccessful (personally and professionally) and unhappy – yet it is ironic how they will swiftly slice through your plans, if they are not tightly wrapped in a traditional box that they are familiar with.  Also ironically, it is the highly successful among us that will urge us to take reasonable risks, because it is only with a bit of risk that we can actually make the positive change to our financial futures that we seek and dream of.

 

Now is the time to plan out “the rest of your life”, so to speak (and such plans are always subject to adjustment, so never fear!).  If you are looking to be an employee again, then it is imperative that you start your job search immediately, like, the next day.  The economy being what it is, if you want a better job than that which you just left, you are going to have to hustle.  Get your resume updated and make sure it is professional looking and sounding.  (If you have decided that you no longer want to be an employee working for someone else, and I hope you have the foresight to at least consider this option – then, now is the time to make the move.)    And whether being an employee or a successful business-owner is your goal, you absolutely want to network.  The more people you know, the better your chances of success, either way.

 

Now is the perfect time to think outside of the box – it is actually a great opportunity to make some changes that you didn’t have the heart or strength to do while working your 40+ for the man. For those who still want to work for someone else, consider changing up what kinds of jobs you apply for  — if you seem to be otherwise qualified for a job in a different industry, and it sounds interesting, then apply for it!   If you historically worked for small business, consider working for large, and vice versa. ( And for those that always (or just recently) decided that they want to be their own boss, now is, seriously, the time, for more than 1 reason, to consider starting a business, particularly a ‘recession-proof’ business.)   Searching for an employment job outside your comfort zone or starting a business involving some new activities you are not used to will likely surprise you as to the benefits, both mentally and financially.  For job seekers, avoid taking the wrong job out of desperation unless it is a “holdover” job.  

 

If money is tight, as it invariably is for most of us when we are in your situation, consider getting a job to hold you over until the right situation comes along – this is not your dream job, so don’t expect it to be.   This is particularly helpful for those choosing to finally start and own their own business.  However, for job-seekers, it can prevent you from depleting all of your savings while looking for that dream job.  (Incidentally, being a job seeker/worker and starting your own business are not mutually exclusive possibilities - you simply must find the business that can be successfully built on a PT basis (we found just such a business, see below)  or a job that can support you sufficiently PT, while building your business full time or be willing to do two full time activities, work for the man and build that business.  Because every business takes time to be built, unless you have a big nest egg, “incoming income” is needed to live while the business is ‘building.’  (I don’t know of any highly successful people who did not burn the candle working that extra job in order to survive the ‘building’ phase of their business – except those that started with a nice financial cushion from the getgo, or a working spouse whose income sufficed, which is not the norm.)  Remember not to be upset if your ‘holdover’ job is not your dream job – that is not what you got it for!  You use it temporarily, 6 months to 2 years, tops, to help you get that business up and running!  It is a means to an end, that is it!

 

As a self-employed person, and given the current lack of employer loyalty, decent pay, available budgets, pension provisions, medical benefits and other impediments to worthy employment, I can not more strongly urge each and every person to consider starting their own business.   If you are laid-off, you are in the absolute perfect place to start. If this seems out of your realm of possibilities, banish that thought from your mind, as it is only holding you back from true success.  You just have to find the right business for you. 

For instance, as noted above, there is a unique American, but global, corporation that it is in the business of making successful business owners out of regular folks like you and me, and ensuring that ultimately the residual income from their business organizations will allow them to largely retire and enjoy life within 2-4 years (some less), if they put in at least part time consistent efforts, show a willingness to follow directions and being trained, and persevering.  If you want this corporation to establish a new business for you, for a nominal fee as far as business start ups are concerned, they will do so.   And, the minimal cost for starting this business partnership is affordable for everyone, if this is something they want.  I believe you will never find a more reasonably priced start up opportunity that provides an actual, legitimate business that you can begin to build, day 1, without further cost.  It includes  everything, including setting up your business and providing you with a team of full support, both on the front lines and back-office, complete customer support for your customers and complete representative support for you and your team.  You will be trained, at no additional expense, in all the steps you need to do with full support at every step – and if you are willing to be so trained and to follow the proven steps, you will have no choice but to reep the various types of compensation available, relatively immediately and residually.  You will be looking back and thanking your lucky stars that you got laid-off from your employer and got out of your own way — and took that first step.  (For more information on this business opportunity, call 570-234-0171)



How To Create Instant Attraction With Any Woman

C. Hand asked:


By Dr. Richard Bayer

It’s no big secret: The economy stinks, the stock market is struggling, and businesses everywhere are taking drastic cost-cutting measures just to keep their doors open. And if you are one of the “costs” that have recently been cut—or if you just see the handwriting on the wall—you’re feeling America’s financial crisis in a very painful and personal way. It’s tempting to crawl under the covers and hide out until the crisis is over, but you simply don’t have that luxury. You’d better get busy preparing and executing your own layoff recovery plan.
            No one enjoys looking for a job, even in the best of times—which these clearly aren’t. It’s a process fraught with stress, rejection, and a lot of tedious leg work. But with a smart strategy for handling your finances, managing your time, and executing your search, you can turn what could be a full-on disaster into merely a bump in the road.       Approach the time immediately after you’ve been laid off with the same sense of purpose you felt with your job. Resist the urge to think of unemployment as the end of the world, no matter how upsetting it may be. Think of it, instead, as an opportunity to improve yourself and to make a fresh start. You can end up better off than you were before you got the ax.

The fundamental rules for surviving your job loss are simpler than you think. Read on for some tips to help you survive—and thrive—after the proverbial pink slip has been laid on your desk:

Negotiate the best possible severance package. (Hint: Don’t automatically go for the cash!) There are two keys to getting the best possible severance package. First, whether it’s the cash settlement or career coaching benefits, negotiate each item individually. This will give you more leverage. Second, decide what you want out of a severance package, without regard for the company’s policy. Many employees simply don’t know what they can ask for in their severance talks, but it pays to research this issue and give it some careful thought.

When you approach the severance issue, think of what will truly benefit you in the long term. Health insurance, for example, costs the company less than it would cost you. You can also ask for one year of career coaching and the right to select the coaching service. People often underestimate how much time it will take them to find a new job, so they accept cash for the entire settlement. The reality is the time in between jobs can be far less worrisome when your health insurance is covered and you have career coaching to help you stay positive and find a great new job. Cash may ease the pain in the short term, but it’s these other benefits that will set you up the best if you are searching for a job for a long period of time.

Don’t take it personally. Lay offs are usually the result of budget cuts and lack of business—and not a direct result of poor performance. Remember that lots of good people get downsized, and in today’s economy it’s happening more than ever. If you are the company’s most recent hire, or if your department is being cut out all together, your position can be in jeopardy regardless of how well you’ve done your job. But perhaps the most important thing to remember is that you’re being laid off because your employer is having trouble in a tough economy—which doesn’t mean that you can’t still be a valuable employee to someone else.

Seventy-eight percent of the unemployed people who belong to The Five O’Clock Club get a job whose salary is equal to or more than their previous pay. And while it’s not always possible to achieve that in our current tight economy, there are still plenty of companies that are in desperate need of quality employees. We stress this fact at The Five O’Clock Club. Remember that there is something else out there for you, and chances are, it’s a great opportunity that will improve your future.

Live as though finding a new job is your job. If you are used to showing up at the office from nine to five every day, it can be daunting to suddenly have hours of unscheduled time on your hands. You need to find a way to maintain the structure in your life and to keep some sort of day-to-day routine. A great way to do this is by using your old work hours to focus on your job search. Use that time to join trade organizations, schedule interviews, and network as much as possible.

At The Five O’Clock Club, we recommend that an unemployed person spend at least 40 hours a week on his or her search. If you do this, you’ll find that you have less time to lament your recent lay off and less time to sink into the negative thought patterns that are associated with it. Once your search pays off, you’ll be glad you quickly hunkered down and devoted so much time to finding a new job that’s right for you.

Manage your money responsibly. Whether you receive severance pay or not, the way you manage your money immediately after being laid off will determine your worry level during the foreseeable future. If a cash settlement is part of your severance package, you might be tempted to maintain your current living status while you search for a new job. However, that money can disappear quickly, especially if you are left to pay for your own benefits. Most people assume that they will find a new job within 30 days of their job loss and are surprised that it can actually take much longer. Create a budget so that you can see how long you can live off of your severance pay. To make your severance money last as long as possible, cut back on any unnecessary living expenses for the time being and get started on your search sooner rather than later.

If you didn’t receive any severance money, you’ll also want to create a post-job budget as soon as possible. Take a look at how much money you have, which bills are coming due, and what expenses you won’t be able to cut. Make sure you can pay your critical bills—mortgage, car payment, insurance—and don’t spend money on anything extra. You may have to cancel an upcoming vacation or get rid of your cable TV, but you will be glad in six month’s time that you didn’t rack up credit card debt and that your savings is still intact.

Expand your search. Just because you worked for a large corporation in a large city doesn’t mean that’s the only type of job you are qualified to do. If you are searching only in Los Angeles, for example, think of looking outside the city or even in a different state. Or if you are looking only at large public corporations, consider small or private companies.

Your personal talents can lend themselves to a variety of different job titles. You just have to be open to them. Searching for a job outside your comfort zone can sometimes open you up to some great unexpected opportunities.

Be picky. If the bills keep rolling in and your paychecks have long since stopped, it can be easy to panic and take the first job that’s offered. Don’t leap into the wrong job. It’s important that you take your time, keep your cool, and ultimately make the right decision for you.

If money is low, get an interim job. It may not be something you would want to do in the long term, but it will provide you with a steady paycheck during your job search. That way you’ll have money coming in and you will be free to keep searching until you’ve found the right job for you. Taking the wrong job and ending up being miserable could cause a string of job hops that will cost you valuable time and effort.

Start your own business. While it may not be feasible for you to start your own small business from the ground up—complete with angel investors and expensive staff members—it may be just the time for you to put your talents to work as a freelancer. Are you a prolific writer or a graphics guru? Use your business savvy to start freelancing while you’re searching for a new job. It can provide a cushion of income in between jobs and maybe even continue to supplement you once you’ve landed a new gig.

Even better, the business in the meantime will keep your skills sharp and provide great references for your résumé. And doing work in between jobs can show a potential employer that you are motivated and that your skills are desirable.

Now, more than ever, is when being proactive counts the most. We live in an economy where there are fewer jobs and more people looking for them, and the competition is tough. This is just the reality. And as hard as it may seem at the time, the more objective that you can be about your job loss, the better the end result you will create for yourself. Don’t let losing your job define who you are; let the way you handle it define who you will be.

I was Laid off…But made more money than my boss unemployed…

There really is no such things as a get rich quick program that’s is legal or moral if your looking for that please stop reading now and play lotto. However, I want to share a system that will turn your money many times over, it not stocks, chain letters, or any other traditional form of investing. This system will Save You Significant Time Energy and Money like all great systems should. The best this about this system is that you can start it will only a few dollars. I was very skeptical about this system if fact I did not even want to tell anyone what I was really doing in my spare time to make money when business was slow.  I am not even sure why how it started because I am not the gambling type of person however I do take on risk in my line of work and this system reduce the risk of gambling by 97%.

With such a startling result I was just blown away! And the best part of all this is that it literally takes me less than 5 minutes to place all my in the morning. I must admit though that I have substantially increasing my bets as my betting bank became larger. But even then…growing $300 into $1000 in under 1 week and over $2000 in the First, four Weeks with practically zero work is something fascinating! Wouldn’t you agree?

After being totally mesmerized with this somewhat ‘miracle’ sport betting system…

How To Be The Ultimate Bad Boy Women Jealously Compete And Fight For

Justin G. Randolph, Esq. asked:


 

It’s pretty clear that the economy is bad with only a few holdouts are denying it at this point. So what to do when you are on an H1B visa and you get laid off? Well first of all don’t panic. You likely have a visa that lasts for years at this point so you are NOT accruing unlawful presence even though you ARE out of status. What in the world does that mean? Well, simply put too much unlawful presence means that you will not be allowed back into the US for many years. Specifically, 180 days to 365 days of unlawful presence means that you will be barred from the US for three years should you leave and attempt to return. Anything over a year results in a 10 year bar to reentry should you leave the United States.

 

But I’m out of status so I’m accruing unlawful presence right?

 

No, not at all. The date on your I-94 rules your world. So if you still have time on your I-94 then you are not accruing unlawful presence until that date has passed.

 

GREAT! I’ll just stay!

 

Well the bad news is that you ARE deportable since you are out of status so that’s a really bad idea! Additionally, you can’t change your status to any other status once you are laid off since you are no longer in valid non-immigrant status. That means you’ll have to leave if you try to change your status.

 

So what do I do??

 

I can’t answer that question for you. However, I can say that you aren’t supposed to be here (and I would never advocate that you violate any immigration laws) BUT if you quickly find a new and appropriate H1B visa sponsor you MAY get lucky and the USCIS MAY allow you to change employers without leaving. It’s certainly happened before and, arguably, you getting laid off isn’t your fault and you and your new employer shouldn’t be punished for you getting laid off. In other words, you shouldn’t have to spend the money to leave the US, get your new H1B issued, and then reenter costing you and your employer time and money. The likely worst case scenario in this instance is the USCIS issuing you an H1B but making you leave to get your new visa stamped. But you’ll have to find an appropriate job and beg for mercy from one of the most merciless agencies in the United States!

 

Good luck!

 



How To Create Instant Attraction With Any Woman

James Copper asked:


If youre forced into a career change because of a layoff, dont panic. While it may seem the end of the world it could end up being a blessing in disguise. In fact many, especially those in middle age whove been stuck in jobs they dont enjoy because theyve built up seniority, find they ultimately welcome the forced career change. Here are some things you must do to help yourself survive the career change.

First, take stock of what you are due by your former employer and make sure you get all of it. If you are laid off unemployment compensation is your right. It may not be a lot of money many states pay1000 a month or less but its your right and its tax free. Take it. Youll generally only have to wait one week before you start getting your checks. You also have a right to the same medical coverage as you had when you were working, as long as you pay into it the sum total of what you had been paying and what your employer had been paying for you. While this might seem a hefty price youll generally find that the coverage will be a much better buy than anything you can find on your own. Dont be tempted to go without health insurance. Its far too great a risk.

The plan that allows you this coverage is called COBRA, which stands for Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act. Its regulated by the U.S. federal government and you can take advantage of the coverage for up to 18 months after you leave your job. Your employer is required by law to provide the coverage. It doesnt require any medical exam and you have up to 60 days from the expiration of the insurance coverage period you were paying into when you were last employed. In other words, if you paid for the month of April and were laid off April 9th, you would have until the end of June to pick up COBRA.

Many companies offer laid off employees a severance package. If you are not offered this, do ask. Your career change may involve further education and this money might be the difference between being able to go back to school or not. It may also be that your former employer will pay for an outplacement counsellor to help you with your career change.

You must strategize your career change. Take full stock of your finances and devise a plan to manage and pay your household expenses. Reduce and even eliminate any luxury items. Make smart budget decisions. Digital cable TV is far less important to your career change plans that your high speed Internet connection, for example.

Plan your job hunt and your career change wisely. It may be that an immediate job hunt is not going to be the same as your ultimate career change. You may need to take a job at least part time, or second shift, or temporarily to get by while you pursue your career dreams, expand your training and so forth. It may be that youll have to take a lower-paying job in your new field to get your foot in the door. Accept that if its necessary, and budget accordingly. Keep in mind the ultimate career change goal and look at it as the first step in the very right direction.

get laid

Scott Patterson asked:


There are so many online web sites devoted to the topic of helping you to get laid now. But is there any merit to those web sites? Or are there other ways to approach actually getting laid within the very near future? There sure are – and knowing how to work a situation and find an interested partner is only a few steps away.

First, get off the internet. Most of the web sites that offer the opportunity for you to get laid tonight are all smoke and no fire. You’ll end up spending so much time talking to people who are only toying with you or who would need way too much encouragement to actually come out and meet up with you.

Plus, we all know that most people lie on their online profiles. If you did succeed in making plans to hook up with someone from the internet, you might be totally turned off by who they really are and look like when you actually meet them. Pass on that experience!

Second, get out of your house. You need to go to where the women are if you want any chance of finding sex quickly. While you’re on your way out to socialize, give yourself a pep talk.

No matter what you look like, how much money you have or what your track record is like, you can find someone to hook up with on short notice. Head for a social gathering place that you know will be filled with hot prospects ‘ not a quiet bar where shy women will avoid looking your way.

Third, once you’re at a bar or a club that’s filled with women, make like a politician and start working the room. You should be able to tell from the first few moments with a woman whether she’s into you or not. If she’s clearly blowing you off, move on. You’ll know when you get to a lady who is also interested in having a good time.

Once you do, it’s time to start working her. A great way to get her loosened up and to make plans for later is to start by buying her a drink. You don’t want to get her sloppy drunk, but a little bit of relaxation from a bottle will get this party started. Once she’s comfortable with you and giving off the get laid now vibe, it’s time to move in and close the deal.

Closing the deal means making her an offer she can’t refuse. Whether you invite her directly back to your place or just make plans to ‘go somewhere quiet’ to get out of the mayhem of the bar, you’re on your way to a fun filled evening. Keep the momentum going through constant flirting, physical contact and innuendos. Once you arrive at your digs or hers, it’ll be easy to move in on her and get laid now!

I can describe the latest release from Rock sensation Gregg Allman for you with just one word… Outstanding!

It’s a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I’m more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn’t a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all, with each song standing tall on it’s own.

These days it’s a very rare CD on which every single song is good or better than the one before it. This CD is certainly one of those rare CDs.

Overall Laid Back is outstanding from beginning to end. One of those CDs that after a few listens the songs are just etched into your memory. A must have for the Rock fan. Really spectacular from beginning to end.

While this entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 2 – Queen Of Hearts, track 4 – Don’t Mess Up A Good Thing, and track 8 – Will The Circle Be Unbroken.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – Midnight Rider. Great track!

Francis Githinji asked:


The human heart is full of complex happenings that make not to be simple and clear, as depicted by our character to look the opposite of what we have in mind. Let face it, we might be living a lie. Imagine dating for the sole purpose of getting laid, to have man have sexual intercourse with you, or have a woman to share a few hours with as you discover what she hides behind that thin dinner dress, that is so tight as to make her show all her contours; the sexy high bosom, the round fundaments that have shapely thighs teasing your manhood, and that smile that is putty and perfects the lips, which make you want to rush at her and surprise her with one of the French kisses you have ever had.

Many people feel this is way when they want to date yet they are not after long lasting relationships that the dating could occasion. It is in the character of a human to find that woman or man who has the composition that makes you want to have sexual favors with. We cannot avoid it. Sex and humans are like human beings and oxygen, separate them and there will be no life. When we lack it the society is in a bigger problem than the atomic bomb. The character of a human does not let him have peace until he has been able to get that woman he has been dating, in his bed. Getting laid is good, wholesome and refreshing.

There is nothing like it. Imagine what happens to a relationship between a man and woman and what makes things go awry. Money and material things can make you fight today, and forgive each other tomorrow, daily disagreements cannot occur, but communication quells that type of fire. Nevertheless start denying your partner the chance to have sex with you for two consecutive times, tomorrow he will get late at work, and the next, and soon, it will be a normal routine; he is always late to get home because of career issues, at least that’s what he tells you. In reality, he has gone to that woman who gives into his sexual advances without demur, rising to the occasion just like him.

He might not touch you for a very long time, until you also realize what is happening. Single men and women are dating more and more together, all in the sole reason of having a quick one after the event. They can’t avoid it. The body of a human has it that after puberty, the gonads mature and prepare themselves for sexual action. The modern world has people putting careers before their intimacy, and the resultant effect is these men and women are engaging in dating relationships only to have a fling after, because they cannot avoid it, their bodies cannot stay without sex.

Otherwise, the number of rape cases will increase, as the private parts of men and women were made to have a lustful union with each other. It’s not bad to engage in dating for a lay, what is important is that you have both determined it and you are ok to try it.
