Canada: What is the New York State self-employment tax rate?
I had found it somewhere once before and I dont remember what is was. I think like 6% or 7%. I know the max income tax is 6.58%, but what about the self employement tax.

Canada: Which sector of IT would be most suited to me?
I have about 2 years worth of IT helpdesk support experience on both the software and hardware sides, and I'm looking to change sectors within IT as I'm not enjoying the helpdesk side at all - not enough training, hands-on experience, job satisfaction answering all calls all day etc.
What I would like to know is, what other areas within the IT employment sector are open to me and which areas are the best to get into in terms of the current IT climate, job satisfaction and career prospects?
I have done a degree in electronic/ computer engineering, so I have done some C++ programming although I was never great at it.
Can someone advise me on what to do?
Thanks!... 03 Dec 08, 10:12:22

Canada: How do I get my husband to stop stealing things from his place of employment?
It started off with just a few packs of industrial paper towels and then I noticed new tools, putty, gloves, batteries for everything (tons of them) and enough garbage bags for the whole house. I asked him to stop, he said he purchased them or they were given to him-I think that's a lie. It adds up to hundreds of dollars. He doesn't work in retail so its not posible for him to have purchased them and the containers for the products are marked with his companies name (its a huge government corp). I'm worried he's going to get fired and I'm upset that he isn't listening to me when I tell him I'm concerned. I've stopped using alot of the products, bu... 03 Dec 08, 10:12:21
Canada: Employment in Virginia - no contract, no paper, nothing?
My husband is going to be brought aboard as a full-time (W2) employee with the company he's been 1099ing for, but they will not give him a contract that states his salary or benefits. He said one guy told him that that stuff was handled by the state government. I am highly suspicious, and my mother (a lawyer, but in Massachusetts) says she didn't think what he faxed her (it said terms & conditions of employment ) was a whole contract.
Does anyone have any experience with this?... 03 Dec 08, 10:12:04

Canada: When will we start drug testing senior executives?
It seems like most of the jobs that drug test you are the ones where you've constantly got people riding your ass. Just once I'd like to see one of these guys that has to shower before work instead of after get drug tested. How bad to they have to mess up before we require pre employment drug testing for everyone?... 03 Dec 08, 09:12:13
Canada: False record on file at the Clerk of Courts has costed me employment opportunities, do I have any recoarse?
I had a Domestic Violence charge back in 2001 that was reduced to a disorderly conduct, minor misdemeanor. I did not know until now that I had a record on file for the world to see until I needed to get a job. I have been turned down and lost job opportunities for the last year and have now lost my home to bankruptcy since I could not gain employment due to this record on file that is incorrect. The record on file says I was charged with a minor misdemeanor for Domestic Violence / Assualt when it actually should depict the true charge of disorderly conduct, minor misdemeanor. My question here is...Can I sue the Clerk of Courts for filing a wrongful conviction that has cost me everything? ... 03 Dec 08, 09:12:19
