[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 386766, member: 805"] k, is the HR person local or is there a home office somewhere else? If he/she is local, I would make an appointment during your lunch hour to sit down and speak with them. Sometimes it's hard to get a feel for someone when dealing with email. Have you met this person when you did your initial paperwork? Usually if there is an HR person you would sit down with them and the would have you do the paperwork, inform you about benefits, pay schedules, etc. While I'm not sure I would share the bankruptcy thing with anyone I worked with, I would definitely let them know you have been unemployed for two years and don't have the money to pay upfront for anything! It's the reason are asking for a pay advance for goodness sake. Doesn't take a brain surgeon to deduce that since you are asking for an advance you also don't have the funds to prepay travel! Ask her what the formal company policy is on travel expenses. If your boss travels out of the country as well, I can't imagine the company not having corporate accounts with hotels, rental car agencies, and airlines - not to mention issuing corporate credit cards. Wondering if your boss is not telling you the whole truth. Sharon [/QUOTE]
