I lost some Trump bucks and a $4k first time homebuyer property tax credit because of a quasi-random decision to make a 2018 conversion. 401k contributions made us eligible to begin with so feel a just result was achieved but laugh at the randomness of it.
Lot of things tied to AGI. I thinks olds not yet on Medicare have to be especially careful as healthcare subsidies are tied to it.
Never thought I’d say this but I’m glad I’m on SSDI. I get enough to pay rent, electric, phone, food, and cable. I can wait this out til there’s a vaccine.
I forget the exact wording, but there is something about payroll expenses per FTE not being able to exceed payroll expenses for a comparable time frame 1 year ago or earlier this year, you can pick the comparative time frame. So I don’t think it’s so easy to funnel the money to an owner or to existing employees. I think they’d have to hire new employees/family members to soak up excess money.
Pelosi names Donna Shalala to provide oversight on the bailout monies. I can’t even “Ok, Boomer” this decision, because Shalala is too old… This is the perfect position for a smart, young(ish), killer to make their bones, and, instead, this is who they come up with?
Need some input from the employee end of things. I’m in California.
I have two jobs. One at a casino which is obviously through for now. My second job is part time teaching at 80/hr between 8-16 hours per week.
The second job has successfully received a small business loan somehow and is offering me work on research and development since teaching is not possible now. The catch is that in order to get up to 75% pay, they are offering me 32 hours per week at half my normal rate. This is a job for which I have never once worked more than 24 hours per week.
I have been scouring the CA legal documents and it seems like I can refuse this based on it not being suitable work because of the payrate cut. However, they also might be able to make an argument based on market conditions etc. However, I think it violates at least the spirit of the loan and quite possibly the legality of the loan to offer me my job back (kind of) at half the payrate.
Some of you guys are employers, any insight on this? Am I liable to lose my unemployment benefits here by refusing? Based on my reading I think I can justifiably answer No to whether I was offered suitable work because of half pay.
You would think she would be more concerned about her image and how she is perceived during such a time.
Confounded, the “Ellen” crew sought information from colleagues on similar shows, many of whom had opposite experiences from theirs, said sources.
“Jimmy Kimmel Live!” stagehands were paid from host Kimmel’s own pocket during initial COVID-19 shutdowns, two insiders familiar with that set told Variety, and since returning to the air network ABC is paying their full rates. “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver,” “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee,” and Showtime’s “Desus & Mero” have also all had transparent communication and are paying full rates, sources said.
Ellen has been on my shit list ever since she gave a “be nice to everyone like I’m nice to George W Bush” speech. He literally got re-elected by slapping hate-fueled same sex marriage ballot initiatives on the 2004 election in swing states you “got mine” scumbag.
There’s a thread about this somewhere on Twitter, but apparently Ellen is just straight-up abusive and everyone who’s worked for her has all kinds of horror stories to tell.
Well I waited 24 hours and tried the USPS validated address and still get the “unable to determine payment status” issue. I guess that means they have not finished processing and uploading my 2018 taxes, although they sure took the money out of my bank account fast enough when I filed last April.
Bunch of people got officially notified today that they were rejected from the EIDL program due to poor credit. Given that and the hard pull on my credit on Thursday I’m going to hope I’m still somewhere in the queue. That won’t help my employees in the short term, I’m not paying them using borrowed money with income drying up, but it would make it easier/possible to ramp up immediately when someday there’s business to do.
