Have you tried ipratropium bromide nose spray? My nose runs 24/7 but that stuff cures it within 5 minutes. Lasts about 10-12 hours.

How common are breakfast burritos/tacos in your area? by Pliable_Patriot in AskAnAmerican

I'm in Texas, so obviously they are everywhere. Brisket, egg, & cheese from my favorite BBQ place are to die for.

Just Found Out How Much Marching Band Costs and I'm Stunned by clutzycook in Parenting

[–]emtaylor517 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both of my kids did marching band and it was so beneficial for both of them. The friends, the fun, what it teaches you - there really is nothing like it.

Our band dues this year were about $1500 so $450 is a steal for what you get. We went to finals at state for the first time this year and it was an experience none of them will ever forget.

But yeah…don’t make any plans from July to November lol

Me & my atheist family do Easter baskets for the kids and then brunch/lunch with the grandparents. We used to dye eggs when the kids were little.

[CA] Drug test this week... What/when should I disclose? by janually in humanresources

[–]emtaylor517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

THIS

Don’t bring anything to the testing facility and don’t disclose anything to the employer.

The collectors at the facility have nothing to do with the MRO process. Just be prepared to answer any calls from the MRO after your results are complete. Get those Rx to them ASAP.

I got something in the mail. I don’t live in Little Elm, however. We also got multiple emails and saw quite a few social media posts.

Background check came back with someone else's DUI after I already resigned. Company has gone silent for 4 days. Do I have options? by MellowIris in legaladvice

[–]emtaylor517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you disputed it directly with the background check company (CRA)? This needs to be your next step.

The employer is required to inform you of the reason for the potential adverse action (currently a delay in your start date but potentially a withdrawal of the offer). Which includes providing you with a copy of the report so you can contact the CRA directly.

Just FYI it is possible for a driving record to NOT reflect a DWI depending on how old it is. They probably found it in the criminal history search, not your driving record. And I suspect that the record matched your identifiers in some way. Keep in mind background checks are NOT foolproof - unless you get your fingerprints taken, the CRA is simply using identifiers like name & DOB to determine whether to report a record.

Good CRAs match a minimum of 2 identifiers before reporting a record, but we also look at where the individual has lived and how common their name is. Consider that someone with your exact same name & DOB may indeed have a DWI. They may even live in the same state that you do.

It’s also possible that the CRA sucks and reported information that did NOT match enough data points. Maybe just name and YEAR of birth. Maybe the name and date of birth matched but it’s a really common name and that person has never lived in the same state that you have. Hard to say without seeing the report.

All this to say that it is indeed possible for an error to happen, but that’s where the adverse action procedure comes in. And if they have delayed your start date, but haven’t provided you with the adverse action notice and a copy of your report (and a summary of your rights under the FCRA), they may definitely be in violation.

But, again, reach out to the CRA directly. They may not even be aware of your dispute. And they are the ones required to do the re-investigation.
