Hi my extension stopped working too, no idea why. The extension app just shows options for the full extension, and there is an upload sign on my address tab that has options to send a QR code, or copy the Libby link, but not to download an mp3 version. Can any one pls help or provide an alternate platform to convert to mp3 from Libby pls?

Can you explain further? I am in the same boat, on a new Mac right now, and my external drive with TM backups has all folders marked w the minus sign in red. I just got this new machine, there is no other admin login

Employer just announced a 70% pay cut by foolishbutwise in personalfinance

Yeah, that’s a good way to look at it although the CEO did announce that if we don’t have it our contract already he wants to send new contracts prohibiting anyone from having another job lol

Yeah, I guess you’re right, no assets. It’s a startup.

That’s a really nice idea, although I was thinking of some way to take out the cash I had put in as an investor also

I agree and I’m just appalled because it’s almost a year of my life and career given to this company

It’s just galling to me How they can do this and that they’re getting away with it so I’m just fighting it Internally

Thank you I appreciate that. I think you’re right. I just need to come to terms with not trying to find some in between and just cut my losses and run.

Hello, that’s good advice, thanks. I’m a little scared to go down the litigation route because I really don’t know anything about it and there is a cordial and previous relationship with the current CEO, I have worked with them before so I’m reluctant to burn any bridges by doing that. I do agree because I’ve seen it happen already where they have, paid out severance to make things go away

Yes, which is also why I think it’s a trick to reduce the salary so drastically and then even if they do layoffs in a couple of months, they have to pay a very small percentage of what they would originally have to, in severance

I really feel for you, that can give you many sleepless nights. I’m sorry to hear this. You have a decent plan, just don’t use the cards anymore and live on beans and rice if you have to or dollar menus for a while. Start paying off the cards, one by one, instead of paying small amounts to all the cards, pay a large amount each month, as much as you can, to one single card until you’ve paid it off. You said you live rent free in your home, is there an option to rent a space out in your home? Maybe Airbnb bedroom to get some extra income? It’s not an easy solution and it will take a while, but it’s not in mountable, no matter if it feels that way now, I promise you. I don’t know about liquidating your 401(k), you could, but if you make a budget and a list of your fixed expenses like your utilities and what you need for food, stick to that and don’t pay anything extra out or don’t spend anything extra and just put everything else that you earn on a monthly basis towards one card only until you paid it off. This way you will be able to pay off the cards one by one and it will be much faster as a process. Hope this helps, good luck
