Chicago Elementary School Officials: Alleged Gun on School Bus
In the past week I have been dealing with the Chicago Public School administration about an alleged gun on a school bus. My children, ages 7 and 6 both take the bus to their elementary school.
Last Wednesday I was watching a TV program that showed a gun that was used in committing a murder, my son told me “that looks like the gun the boy had on the bus.” Needless to say I was in total shock and asked him the typical who, what and when questions. Both my children said they saw it “before we went to Disney World”, which was a month ago.
The following day, Thursday, I called the school at 8:45AM and told the receptionist the entire story. He proceeded to tell me that the assistant Principal is in a meeting and we are in the middle of testing, she will call you back. A few hours pass and I hear nothing so I called again and was told that they were in the middled of a fire drill, I gave her the message and she will call you back.
Needless to say I did not receive a call back. My children came home and asked them what happened and they said “we found the boy”, they told me that a CPS Security Guard removed them from their classrooms around 2:30-2:45PM to take them from classroom to classroom to point out the child with the gun. I was shocked and appalled that they would do that without contacting me. The Assistant Principal finally called me at 5:40PM, to tell me she talked to the boy and even though they found “play handcuffs” and the gun in question was “paper”. I repeatedly asked her why she did not call me back and she did not answer, she only stated “I did the best I could”.
I was called by another in the office and was then contacted by the Acting Director of Safety and Security for CPS. He requested a meeting with me on Friday, but I found it unnecessary to talk to him, my children were not the offenders, but rather the actions of the principal were what I was questioning. I also contacted all of the media and two news agencies pick up the story, ABC 7 ran it on Monday.
I have been in contact with the administration via email and phone and no one wants to say anything regarding the handling of the incident. They went as far as “terminating” a conversation with me when I said he did not listen to me in our previous conversation and did not respond to any emails sent to him and I told him I have no faith in the investigation.
I need help. I need to know if certain policy and procedures were followed properly. My children were paraded around from class to class to find an offender and I fear retribution buy the child or other students. I have all the emails I have ever sent to CPS as well as the news story, with CPS “official” response. I do not want another family to go through what we are going through.

Chicago Auto Repair Shop Scammed Me: What Do I Do?
I have a 2004 Saturn Vue in which the transmission went out in May 2009. I took it to a local Chicago Transmission repair shop who rebuilt it (it took almost 3 months!), I had it for 5 weeks and it died again.
I towed it back (it was under warranty) August of 2009. They still have NOT fixed my car and seem to be avoiding me. I get a new story every time (Transmission Control Module is back ordered, then bad and reordered and now they say it won’t work with rebuilt transmissions and is working with GM to get a transmission).

I’m sure I can get my car back (broken) but I want it fixed and felt I’ve been more than patient.

Can I Sue Employer For This Drug Testing?
Can I sue my employer for unprofessional drug testing?
My brother and I work for the same company and we recently had a surprise drug test. While we were waitng I had an emergency to run to and left. My brother stayed and was afraid he was going to fail his drug test so he picked my paperwork up and took my drug test. The owners wife was doing the drug test at the facility and never asked for any type of I.D. I was reviewing DOT laws about drug testing and my company didnt comply to the rule about identification.
Can I sue?
Can Restaurant Workers Join a Union?
I want to know if there is anyway the people who work in the restaurant industry can form a union. I know a lot of people who have been injured on the job and the workers compensation to live off of due to bad tips and low hourly is brutal.
The wage is about $4.80/hr plus tips but the hours that we work and all the double shifts and the way employers can let us go so easily. We are overworked and easily taken advantage of. A lot of sexual harassment goes on and a lot of illegal immigrants get taken advantage of too.
