I want to give a shout-out to everyone who is going to have a background check! Some things can go wrong, and you can benefit from it!
I was delivering for Grubhub when I got an email saying I was deactivated. This was about five months ago. I pulled my Checkr report and saw they were reporting a theft charge to Grubhub. That was confusing, especially since I’d already been driving with them for nearly two years with no issues.
I did not find Checkr's phone number, but I found a law firm that helped me. We sued Checkr, and it took us around 3 months to get things done.
I didn’t have to pay anything up front. The attorney handled everything. I can’t share all the details, but I’ll say this: I received over $10,000 in compensation for the lost work, stress, and damage to my name. And I never earned more than 10k a month at GrubHub, so suing Checkr is more beneficial than actually working for gig apps!
So if there is a mistake on your report, you may wanna sue instead of trying to resolve it civilly, a lawsuit is actually more effective

How would you react if you noticed there was an issue arising due to current company procedures, however, the employees are receiving feedback as if this is due to employee performance?
This is where management to step in. Not everyone takes in I formation the same. Finding out how to present an issue or new policy depends, on how it's as they say televised. Making sure to extinguish, the missu derstanding by holding a meeting, answering question. To better understand how to incorporate it for u derstanding with each I dividual person.
Say you over hear your department is about to get laid off and they plan on announcing this later that day or tomorrow, would you inform your team ahead of time?
Yes, they all need to prepare, look for diffrent work. I never found that fair. Leaving people scrambling and upset.
Me I would. Some people have certain jobs because it all they can do. Or other reasons. I worked for a place. Long time ago was a hotel. Just moved to the state was trying to find my footing. Was with them 4 months, got a place. Still looking for a management position.in that state. One day I came in we all worked. Later that day when all work was done. They handed out the letter. Told us 3 to 4 weeks before our last pay. My think is. They have a cushion. Informing shows morals. Shows you care about you employees. Shows they care if they become homeless. Moral values come into place. Not policy. Police is used for cover, of not carrying.

Many years ago, I used apps like Instawork or Qwick (which I highly recommend) to supplant my income on the weekends. Some time ago, I served at a luxury members-only restaurant at a sports arena in Downtown Los Angeles.
I'll admit, as a waiter, I was a bit rusty... and it was a busy night, so I did a bit of running myself. As I served water for some high-profile guests, I spilled some ice over the lip of my metal pitcher and it landed on the floor. And perhaps on the foot of a guest...?
I did my best to apologize without panicking and slid the remaining ice away from the table's vicinity with my shoe. I came back not too long after with a butler and broom to remove the mess with discretion.
I was rather a bit mortified, but I tried not to get to me.
So, fellow Jobcasers, any advice for this kind of faux-pas?
“Have you ever been let go from a job in a way that felt unfair? If so, what happened?”
“Have you ever filed a workers’ compensation claim while still working at your current or a previous job?”
“If you’ve ever gone through that, I’d be interested to hear what the whole process and experience was like—how did it go?”

My friend recently had to undergo a medical procedure that required an extensive 3-week recovery period. During this recovery time, he's had to take an extended unpaid sick leave from work. Luckily, everything is going well, and he's on track with his recovery. However, his employer has given some signs that his job may not be there when he got back.
My friend is an "at-will" employee, so it's well within his employer's right to dismiss him for missing too many days at work. He's been with the company for just under a year, but already has a distinguished track record. Nevertheless, it looks like his days at that company are over.
So, fellow Jobcasers, have you ever dealt with long-term sick leave? How did it go for you?
I work for a county department where I was called into the office on the start of my first shift and told I have a legal hearing scheduled but they couldn’t find it. The director of my department processed to tell me the mayor called him and they decided that it would be best to place me on leave until the situation blows over or is settled. 1.5 weeks later my suspicion was confirmed, the fire chief of a local volunteer department had filed for an EPO against me with no grounds. The judge also found there to be no threat to this guy and dismissed the EPO asking us to sign a no contact agreement for 1 year. I let my department know this and they still have not put me on the schedule. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. The EPO was attempted as retaliation for a call I made to find out if he has been using his county issued vehicle for personal purposes. I feel discriminated against and very let down by the service I’m supposed to be employed by. I’ve been out of work for over a month due to this. #termination #advice
I'm sorry to hear about your situation. It sounds frustrating and unfair. Your best course of action may be to consult with legal counsel to explore your options for addressing the discrimination you feel you have faced. In the meantime, consider reaching out to your HR department or a labor board for guidance on how to proceed. While on leave, utilize this time to update your resume, network, and search for opportunities on Jobcase, as well as other job search providers, to keep your options open. Stay positive and focused on finding a new opportunity that values your skills and contributions. Good luck! #staypositive #jobsearch #discrimination #advice
Hello everyone MY aggravates & hurts me is that my last employer is telling prospective employer, that I was falling asleep on the job! REALLY ! When I got everything done your payables , your collections your receivables the deposits & balance bank Statement. It broke my heart when I found out I gave them as I did every job 100% And yet she did this to me because I disagreed with one person she told me to do something but she was my boss so I went to do it when I did it her husband said true example her husband said oh I don't want him signs up until tomorrow morning because we were going to close at noon for a funeral that we were all going to and I got tired of being in the middle it'll never happen again I wish I would have said I'm putting these up until you can speak with your wife and then if she doesn't want them up till tomorrow, then I will take them down. #termination
