i have been told they will tranfer my employment to the company that they have sold out to, who is my previous employer.
But my job i'm leaving is being advertised, but i'm not aloud to apply for it. what rights do i have.
Answers:
I assume you are in the UK.
I'm not exactly sure the facts of your situation but I hope this general answer helps.
Under the TUPE Regulations 2006 (as updated) it would appear that you employment is being transfered to the new owners.
The Regulations operate to transfer all the contractual terms (including pay) to the new owners. Also, all liabilities (save for pension, but that's another answer) also transfer.
If you are sacked as a result of the transfer that is (almost certainly) unfair dismissal.
However, because you've been employed less than 1 year (four weeks only), you have no legal recourse in any event if they do sack you (unless it's becasue of race, sex or disability).
Further information:
Thanks for the additional information. So you've already left? If so, then there's nothing to transfer, your contract of employment has come to an end.
There's no breach of contract on the facts you have outlined.
On the further information provided, you have no basis for any claim, if that's what you're asking.
Just fasten your seat belt and hang on.
This is why I say, "leave with class, not like an ***.,"
If you left on a handshake, you have much to worry about. Maybe they have plans to move you around, and maybe they're just advertising to see who is out there.
They have no obligation to keep you, but what you did in your old job might be the key to whether or not they keep you.
I hope they do. Believe me, you're going through a lot of BS right now, just hang tight.
I'm thinking of you.
it would depend on the contract you have in place between yourself and your new employer and maybe the one from the old employer would play a role... i would suggest you seek some professional assistance from either a solicitor or from your countries employment board to find out what your rights are and what you can do and if you will actually need to do anything at all.

I spelled that wrong.?
Answers:
t-h-a-t
There. Don't spell "that" wrong again.
:-)
No freaking way.
nope
better watch out! bad spelling is against the law!!
dictionaries are our friends
Some idiots on Y/A think that if you make a spelling mistake, you should be prosecuted. You've been warned! :)
spelt!!
dumb moron
use spellcheck
T--H--A--T. No, yer OK.
to owen r: i thought spelt was a type of wheat.
does it really matter so long as people know what you mean. being dyslexic doesn't mean you have nothing to say worth hearing! sadly the same cannot be said of those who whinge on about bad spelling!
i'm not suggesting "you" are dyslexic by the way.
dictionaries are online
Congratulation on your new invention.
Really
So ? its not a crime yet to make a mistake with your spelling, so long as we can figure out what you meant, i don't think it matters.
In politics and government it should be spieled
Shouldn't that be "I punctuated that wrong.?" It isn't correct to use a question mark after a full stop.
Oh, just a heads up for both sides of the Atlantic; over here in England, we use both "spelt" AND "spelled" as the past tense of spell. They are both grammatically correct but the US just use "spelled".
spelled?? is that a word?
No, but your typing contains an error. You don't require a full-stop AND a question mark.
'spelled' is perfectly correct.
I sold a car to a co-worker, but I accidently left my gas jug and some more things in the trunk, are they his?
I left my wash bucket that I planned on using to wash my new car, my car wax, tire cleaner and things of that sort in the trunk of the old car. I didn't realize this until 2 weeks after I sold the car to him. He has never mentioned that I left those things in the car, and my guess would be that he intends to keep them for himself and I suffer the loss. Legally, are those things still mine or do they become his since the car is now signed over to him? If he plays dumb and says he doesn't have them (I'm 100% sure I left them in the car) can I use my spare key and go in the trunk while he's parked at work and get my stuff out? Should I let it go and suffer the loss?
Answers:
I would ask him about the items , if he's an honest co-worker he'll give them back. He knows they didn't come with the sale of the car. If he denies seeing them or if he says he threw them away[suffer the lost] and forget about them. You are not being honest ,by keeping a key to a car that's not yours' anymore. If you enter his car without permission, it's like breaking and entering[Even with a key]. Don't get yourself into trouble about something so minor You should have checked the car before turning it over to him.
If you didn't remove them before signing over the car, go get new ones, they are not that expensive.
You could always ask him about it, and see if in his good grace he will return them to you.
However, used cars are sold "as is", and that includes everything in the vehicle at the time of the sale.
Take the loss.. You sold them to him when you turned over the keys to the car.
Suffer the lost
I would think that legally you sold him the title to the car. The stuff in the trunk isn't covered by the title. They are yours still. If you use the the spare key to get them yourself, you're breaking and entering. You could sue him for the stuff in small claims court if he refused to give them back. Here's a crazy idea - why not just ask him to give the stuff back?
suffer the loss cause if you sold him the car u also sold anything tha twas in the car as well. U shouldnt have a spare key plus he could get u for B%26E breaking and entering the car and taking his stuff. My advice would be ask him about it and he isnt a real prick he will give you the stuff back. and if not just suffer the loss
Why don't you just ask the guy? he probably think's your not interested in your stuff because you haven't contacted him, stop stressing and just ask the guy.
I'm sure if you ask him/her that you left some personal items in the car and you want to retrieve them he/she will let you take them. I don't see why the buyer would not let you have them back. However, if you feel a bit uneasy asking for these things back, maybe you should just go ahead and replace those items.
Ask this person the worst they can say is NO! and give the new owner the spare KEY!!
If its a co-worker you could just ask him maybe he hasn`t even looked in the trunk yet ..if he says theres nothing in there then just take the loss those items are not worth anything its not like you let something personal in there, it would be less time and trouble to just replace them..

I signed for a package for my neighbor lady & she's never home.?
Since I signed for it, i'm probably responsible for it now, otherwise I would take it to the office. (I live in apt) She works days %26 goes to college at night %26 never comes home until late. I am up late as well, but don't hear her when she comes in. Should I quietly knock on her door after midnight, take this package to the office, or leave a note on her door? I'm going to be gone for a week soon %26 want to get it to her before I leave. Any suggestions?
Answers:
Leave a note on her door stating that you signed for her package and to pick it up at the office. Take the package to the office, tell them what's going on, and leave it with them. They should have her phone number on file and can call her as well. The delivery company should have left it at the office for her when she wasn't home to receive it. I've lived in apartments for years and have received plenty of packages from UPS, FedEx, etc. and their policy is to leave it at an apartment complex office if no one is home, after sticking a missed package slip on the door. Leave her a note, leave the package at the office, problem solved.
Leave a note on her door with the days/hours when she can catch you (but don't mention you're going to be gone for a week, others could read that note too!)
leave a note on her door telling her you have a package for her that you signed for and in the note ask her to come pick it up
I would leave a note on her door and let her know that you will be leaving soon and that you would appriciate her picking up the package. Also you are responsible for it, however if she does not respond to your note or attempts at trying to reach her, you can always get the land lord involved and see if they can track her down. If that doesnt work, send the package back, but make sure you get a reciept for the package so that she doesnt say you stole it or something...better to be safe than sorry.
just leave a note on the door or in the mailbox
I'd leave her the note and your hours, mention you're up late and she can feel free to knock for it. But put it in a sealed envelope, just so passer byers can't read it.
I wouldn't leave it with the office because they are more than likely not 24 hours and she wouldn't be able to get it.

I signed a lease with my sister to help her with poor credit. I now need to get off the lease.live in PA..
I co-signed a lease with my sister to help her get an apartment because her credit is not so good. I do not live there, I have my own apartment in another town, and have a lease there. However, I no longer want my name on my sister's lease. Is there any way to get off of the lease without paying the remainer of the one year (it was signed one month ago, with 11 months remaining). Since my sister will still be living in the apartment and paying rent, how can I be sued for the remainder of the rent if she is paying it, since there are no actual "damages". Would an attorney be able to help me? Thank you.
Answers:
I'm in Pa also and I think you are pretty much stuck until the lease expires. You signed a legal contract for one year. If your sister doesn't pay the rent,they want someone else they can get it from.
If she rents from a private landlord,maybe you can talk them into it after she proves she is trust worthy,but if she rents from a complex,you can pretty much forget about it.
I did the exact same thing - co-sign. There are a few remedies you can try:
You can go to the owners and ask to be taken off. Probably after 90-120 days they may agree.
Yes, you can be sued. You do NOT need an attorney. You can contact your local housing authority and discuss with them.
Why can't you give your sister the benefit of the doubt. She may surprise her. Family is all we got - good, bad or indifferent....give her a chance.
Think that you are committed to it now until the lease expires. If she misses a month of rent, they will attempt to collect the money from you.
sorry your in for the term of the lease unless there is a buy out contract our the owners agree to take you off. Good luck
Whatever this "Housing Authority" is they can't interfer with a valid contract.
The only way to get off the lease is if the manager allows you to relinquish the lease in favor of your sister. I doubt that will happen since of her credit and especially this soon.
If she keeps up the payments and stays for 1/2 the lease you will be in a more powerful position to negotiate.
And an attorney won't deal with this either unless the lease itself is voidable. Have about $2,500 to find out?

I see a lot of fake id sites on the web, is there any way that they can legally be doing this inside the US?
Does it have to do with them creating their own templates and not copying government documents?
How do they get around the laws that would prohibit them from selling these id's?
Answers:
It is illegal. If caught they will be tried, convicted, go to jail and meet many new friends of the same sex.
no making a fake ID is illegal here because teens will do anything for drugs and alcohol or even cigarettes
If they are made to look official without being a duplicate of an official document or actually stating that it is official, then it is not illegal, even if it's a bit shady.
If they are a duplicate of an official document (like a State driver's license), or claim to be an official government document, then they are illegal.
fake i.D's are illegal there is no way you can get them legally but if you live in Los angeles California go to downtown l.a and you will hear people say " micas" in Spanish and it is cheap and it is really rare that you get caught in any way...
Yes is illegal to sell them, to buy them and a federal crime to use the mail to get or send them.
The trick is that most of those Internet companies are NOT physically in the US. nor the owners. They use foreign servers and fake companies. I wouldn't trust my credit car number to someone that sell fake Id's.

I say lock the sherriff up...?
Trying to follow this whole Paris Hilton thing, I personnally feel the judge is just trying to make a name for himself and is jealous of her life style. She went to jail, the sherriff let her out why not just let her be house arrested which is the usual punishment for the crime, its now between the judge and sherrif to determine his fate. What are your oppinions?
Answers:
I think the Judge isn't fit to sit on the bench. What is all this MAKE AN EXAMPLE of this person or this person.
Shouldn't the law apply EQUALLY to ALL regardless of their social or financial status?
And if the Sheriff violated a law then he should be charged for the offense and go to trial.
Yeah, I say he was in contempt of the court order and should be punished.
The judge is probably tired of celebrities breaking the law...and in a dangerous fashion (DUI)...and wants to make a point.
Honestly, I can't think of a better person to make a point with than Paris (I'm an idiot) Hilton.
She is young, the teens follow her much more closely than others like Bruce (I'm a bigot) Willis.
I am thinking that the judge is trying to reach nationwide to show many many youngsters that actions do have consequences...and hopefully this message will save a few teen lives as a result!
I think the sheriff was wrong. In the jails in LA county there are doctors and nurses that can treat any disease, mental or physical. Why couldn't P.H.'s be treated there? Too sick to go to jail? Don't think so!
i agree
The judge made a clear statement at the sentencing. The sheriff circumvented the judge. The sheriff now admits that he just took Paris' psychiatrist at face value. The sheriff did not do his job in my opinion.
She went to jail for a stupid Traffic Infraction.
You know criminals up here in Washington only get a couple months for stealing cars, and so I'm really surprised she got thrown in jail for only a stupid traffic infraction.
People who think she "deserves" it, really make me sick!
EVERYTHING IS POLITICS
AND PLAIN OLD BS
THERE IS MORE TO IT THEN THAT.
PARIS HILTON DIDN'T KISS ENOUGH
BOOTY.

The Sheriff decides who goes and who stays, the judge is wrong. The Sheriff has the power to declare the jail as full and un safe.. The Sherriff also has the power to determine if holding any person (who a Doctor says is sick and should be in Hospital) will result in a law suit.. Being in the Hospital is still being under arrest. It's the Sheriff's call.
The sheriff had no right to let her out without permission from the judge to do so. The judge had written specific instructions on her paperwork and the word "No" was written over and over in reference to several things, one being house arrest.
Paris was arrested last Sept for DUI. Her license was revoked in Nov and she was arrested for DUI again in Jan and Feb of this year. Then she has a court case and she is late for court. She is told she has to serve so many days and she finally reports to the jail but goes on about some health issue and the sheriff takes pity and releases her under house arrest WHICH the judge had already said she could not do.
If she was having problems in jail, she should have contacted her attorney and had him file the appropriate paperwork in her behalf, get medical documentation and work for a release. That paperwork was never filed even though the judge had been told it was on it's way.
Then she actually spends 3 days in jail, not 5, and goes home for one night. The judge orders her into court but someone else decided she would do her court appearance "on the phone" ~ something else the judge did not say was ok. So the judge orders her butt hauled into court and he had to wait for TWO hours before she got there.
Every step of the way she has shown nothing but arrogance and disrespect for the law. Her parents taught her to act like a brat and she does it well. This girl is 26 years old but acts like a 6 year old. It's about time she had to face responsibility for her attitude towards the law and her actions.
Everyone is sitting back feeling sorry for the crybaby because she can't do what she wants for a change ~ what if she had killed someone while she was driving while drunk? It's better she sheds a few tears now and wakes up to what she has done rather than have some innocent person killed on the street because of her total disrespect for mankind and the laws of the land.
And yes, I think the sheriff should be reprimanded in this case. I saw him on the news making excuses for his actions. There aren't any excuses so he can can it for all I care. He was wrong and just won't admit it.
And as one reporter said on TV earlier, if they let her do this, claiming she has a health problem, then they will have thousands in jails claiming to have some health issue and will want released on house arrest. They have to set the right precedence now and let all of them know it can't be done for anyone and that includes Paris.
Personally I'd like to see her sent to AZ and put in the Tent Jail for two weeks where she can find out what real life is all about. Mom and dad sure did not teach her to be a responsible adult, maybe jail will.
THe judge overstepped his bounds. The sheriff is the one legally that she was in custody of, and the one legally that can determine where she serves her sentence. This judge has set himself up for a severe slap by an appeals court, and I hope he gets it. The judge apparently thinks that he can do what he wants just because she's special. Once he sentenced her, he was done with his part. After that it's the sheriff's business.
