Bad Guy BEWARE- ANIMAL SPECAILTIES- chico california by Elizabeth Minton

[Elizabeth Minton]

never mind. i scanned my work document that i got with my paperwork but does anyone know how to post it

Or what she could do is going back and say, hey, i am short on my check whats that deal and give them a chance to rectify it or explain that since it was a new/old work week she will get it next week instead of jumping to conclusions. There are simple ways of dealing with that and suing isn't one of them.

She has a personal check for wages which is more than enough for the DOL to investigate. Trust me. I deal with them at least once a month. Seeing as she was laid off on Saturday and not paid until Monday the DOL can also fine them and grant her an additional $128.00.

The burden of proof will lie with the employer. They will need to prove she was not an employee and that she didn't work the hours she claimed. If they underpaid her $50.00 and they don't fork it up now by the time the DOL gets to the claim they will fine the company $1920.00 and give it to her.

A client of mine just lost $3700.00 in fines for $125.00 in wages.

I have no tolerance for employers who screw employees and don't pay their taxes.

I agree with that, i am just saying to give them a chance to fix it be first and if they won't then take action.

By LAW in CA you have to pay an employee FULL wages the day they are discharged. She absolutely has a case against them. Some may not agree with it but the law is there for a reason. Way too many employers play games with their employees hard earned money.

As for the rest of the story I don't buy it. If the animals were in that bad of condition you should have alerted the authorities. I'm sorry but a minimum wage paycheck is not worth the well being of any living creature.

can someone tell me how to post a piece of my work document that states hours, payment schedule etc, i scanned it to my computer but i dont know how to post it.

someone in my math class has that happen at staples one time. he worked 24 hours only but found a better job. he got a check in the mail for $2000 because staples was stealing their employee work hours and paying them less than they should have gotten and they had gotten sued

How does the DOL know what that check was for.Her employment papers are all there is..1 day.
Where so far off track now and before Harald gets on me for taking this off topic,I'm gonna bow out.

 

[Elizabeth Minton]

my time clock hours prove othwise. 26 hours of work with $8 hour wages should be recorded on a time clock (total before taxes would be $208). and i think there are ways to prove that the if the hours were messed with say they took off two hours. im sure that would be recorded somehow

 

[Lopann]

Wow long read, well everything else aside you still have not produced any pictures of the facilities. You have no proof to back your claims, which is what this thread is about. Dont buy at animal specialties because they have sick animals, isn't that the point of your thread? Can i see some pictures please?

Your telling me your a 19 year old who cant find a way to get in and take a picture (either with a phone or digital camera)... just say you left your purse, unless you made a scene there and they wont let you back.

You have no pictures, so you have no ground to stand on. Provide pictures and i'm sure people will ease up.

Point of View from a passer by

You people disgust me!

Lay off the girl, the BOI is here for reptile matters not belittling someone.

Everyone makes mistakes, in regards to Elizabeth's past, but the matter at hand is her accusations of the company's reptiles and the way they do business. People should not be taking jabs on either side. This thread should have been closed 2 days after it was made because of lack of proof! Personally I feel that some admins let this kind of crap happen because they are friends with the bullies!

Everyone here needs to grow up, including you Elizabeth, stop posting and get your proof to show to everyone, if not just let it go, ok?

Yeah...telling the admins how to do their job without first being aware of how things actually work around here....and then accusing "them" (there's really only one, and a few moderators) of playing favorites or whatever when you don't have a clue what you're talking about. That's really grown up.

BOI threads aren't ever locked for any reason unless specific rules were broken when they were created. And anyone who thinks the mods play favorites needs to either spend more time watching how things work here, or just be quiet because that is the very last thing that goes on here.

I WILL agree with your point that if Elizabeth would just be quiet and let things go, this thread would cease being such a hot-point of activity and everyone could go their separate ways. But so long as she continues to argue every little point, there is bound to be someone else who will continue arguing back. Only SHE can put an end to it, really. And she doesn't seem inclined to do that anytime soon.

That sound soooo mature! "SHE HAS TO STOP NOT ME!" What are we 5 year old children?! Jesus

Yes, you're expecting of all the thousands of people who read and post here that everyone is as mature as you are?
Oh wait...maybe that's not such an unrealistic expectation after all.



Anyhow...mods, my sincere apologies for getting drawn off topic. I'll shut up now.

 

[rabernet]

it is actually not. this is about the companies lack of care of their animals i.e breeding deformed animals etc, legal issues about the company themselves, your missing the big picture. this is not about me its about the business

No my dear, it's quite evident that YOU are missing the big picture.

If it's a PDF like your link indicates, then just use the manage attachment feature below the post box, and upload it from your PC.

o0o Maybe shes lying about her name too! I want MORE PROOF!

How do we even know Deborah is real? Anyone?

Where are her credentials to be such an all knowing BOI expert, stopping by to drop her qualified opinion and infinite wisdom on anybody that doesn't live up to her SUPREME ethics and moral standards.

Get off your high horse, and be productive. Watch, Ill show you how to not be a snob.

Elizabeth- Youre going to need some proof if youre going to label someone a bad guy. Without pics, this thread is worthless, so next time if you lack evidence, try and just make it an info thread. Sorry about the check problem, but thats not as much an actual business transaction as an in-pet store payroll issue, and doesnt quite belong here either, although its sort of toeing the line.
And dont forget to inform the other party of this thread.



Pinkies down.

I'd have to agree with:
shinezilla
Alex G
bullies&balls
capt._howdy
shane159
snakechaarmer
Googlez_N_Vincent
A few more as well.. And of course Pav..

Such a shame, what a mess it has turned into (is she tied to the stake yet).. It's like follow the leader in here or follow the bully, humm who posted the first rude comment? Oh yeah it was Deb with "slapping people around with her neg's"

I will have to say "good for you" to the decent people in here, the not so snobby ones!

 

[deborahbroadus]

Pot, Kettle, Black (I have been wanting to say that again!!)

Pav, you answer posts the way you want, do you want me to get the thread where you called the OP something like "retarded?" Ooooooo, Pavy was bad! :lol:

Little Amanda and Co.... what can I say about you, you have already been exposed... so I am not surprised that you would chime in.

Been here for a while, and I can say now, as long as I am not getting infractions for my posts, I see no need to change. Now, y'all have a nice day!

Please, Ill link it myself. At the end of the day, Im down to earth, and your head is in the clouds.

You can be however you want towards the OP, but where do you get off questioning everyones identity and not believing a thing anybody says anymore? You're so opinionated, and people like what you say because it sounds good, but I think you're just a pretentious, self righteous, and slightly deluded woman. There's just as little proof towards your existence and as little weight behind your words as everyone else's, so why do you have the loudest voice?

GTFOver it.

Oooops! Forgot the bolded part.

I am not real, I am a part of your NIGHMARES. I never claimed to be real, just a realist.

**My little joke seems to have become the topic of the thread.

Now for getting back on topic..

Elizabeth "warned" us about a company, hopefully they'll chime in, but perhaps they don't think the topic is worth their time. I honestly don't blame them, she comes off as a disgruntled employee.
