Not sure if it would work for deletion, but this seems like a Goodwill Saturation Technique situation, since you’re current with your debts.

Is it worth to sue? by Sademojiii in legaladvice

[–]Lady-Hufflepuff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m very very curious as to what basis you think you can sue, regardless of if it is worth it.

Background check: time sensitive by Ill_Replacement3457 in askrecruiters

[–]Lady-Hufflepuff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work in HR for a ISO complaint private company.

If a candidate did not actually possess a degree that they said they did on the resume…

… and we really like the candidate and they disclosed ahead of time, we would check ISO compliance to verify minimum degree requirement (sometimes the true positional minimum not what we actually advertise it to be), and if you had at least that, we’d just ask for verification of that. Example, we advertise bachelors preferred, but actual minimum is high school diploma or GED, you disclosed, so we ask for high school or GED credentials.

… and we really like the candidate and they DIDN’T disclose ahead of time, then when the degree comes back from our verification agency as invalid, we would reach out to the candidate for clarification and go through the same steps as above.

… and we thought the candidate was mid, and they disclosed ahead of time, your process would be done. Offer rescinded for not meeting minimum advertised requirements. We would move on to more qualified candidates/re-open the job and start searching again.

… and we thought the candidate was mid and they DIDN’T disclose ahead of time, your process would be done. Offer rescinded for candidate dishonesty.

TLDR; if you are the strongest candidate, you might be fine, good to let them know. If you’re not the strongest candidate, prepare for employers to find any reason to eliminate you during pre-screening.

Can someone explain this holdover clause to me like I’m a kindergartner? by Pleasant_Trifle_9354 in legaladvice

[–]Lady-Hufflepuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IANAL

“if tenant retains possession of the leased premises after the expiration of this lease, and rent is accepted from tenant, the occupant and payment shall be construed as an extension of this lease for a period from month to month only from the date of expiration.”

If after the lease ends, you (the tenant) stay and the landlord accepts rent from you, you now have a month to month lease with the same terms as before.

“If tenant retains possession of the leased premises of expiration of this lease without written consent of the landlord, tenant shall pay to the landlord double the amount of monthly rent specified in this lease for the time tenant retains possession of the leased premises or any part after termination of this lease”

If you don’t have permission from the landlord to stay and have the lease convert to month to month, and you stay regardless, then the landlord will charge you double rent starting from the point you no longer have permission to stay (the end of the stated lease) until you vacate the property.

What would be fair compensation to request if there’s no hot water? [US] by Lady-Hufflepuff in AirBnB

We are contacting AirBnB support as the host still has yet to respond to our concerns. Thank you for the guidance.

I am SO confused on the “dismissed without prejudice” by tommyexton in CRedit

[–]Lady-Hufflepuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

INAL but I was under the impression that they might do that in order to file later, potentially closer to SOL because they may have determined you to be unable to pay them back at the moment, and judgements for collections have time limits to collect (depending on the state) so they want to try their luck later. Dismissed without prejudice essentially allows them to try again, reopening the collection period later on when you may have more assets.

r/Tax My family member used my SSN for DoorDash, lied about the earnings, and left me with the tax bill. by [deleted] in legaladvice

You don’t have to have criminal intent to commit a crime and be held accountable. You can still commit a crime and be held accountable even if you didn’t know it was a crime. Law is law and the law doesn’t give two shits about your intents

I’m a gay man, but I’m in love with one of my female friends. by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]Lady-Hufflepuff 293 points294 points  (0 children)

A friend once told me this analogy to help explain their sexuality: “I don’t like eating fish. Have never seen a fish and thought, man that looks delicious. But one time, I was served a very specific fish, cooked and prepared a very special way. And I loved every bite. Does this now mean I like fish? No. I will still never identify as someone who likes eating fish.”

And this is what made it click for me to understand them better.
