About discrimination at work place (philadelphia, pa)

Discrimination at work place (philadelphia, pa)?
a friend works in the Philadelphia pa area. She feels like she is some times discriminated at work. She wants to files charges at some type of state labor board. What would she need to do to go about that. She doesn't want to go to a lawyer because she doesn't have the money. How does she get a hold of the labor board? or some other type of labor type board? Thanks for any help..sorry for any misspelled words I'm at the library and am out of time at the computer i'm on.

If you feel that you have been the victim of discrimination and want to begin the complaint process, you need to file your complaint with one of the Commission's three regional offices. The county is determined by the location of the alleged act of harm -- NOT the county in which you live. For example, you live in Berks County, but you work in Montgomery County. Your complaint would be filed with the Philadelphia Regional Office. http://sites.state.pa.us/PA_Exec/PHRC/offices/regional_map.html

About do you even have to get out of elementary school to work for the Philadelphia Parking Authority

Do you even have to get out of elementary school to work for the Philadelphia Parking Authority?
Today I parked on a Phila street, asked the meter maid, which of these meters do I use. (because the double meters were about midway of my passengerside door). A car was parked in front of me and One behind me. She was writing a ticket on the one in front. She pointed and said that one is yours. I put money in the meter, went into the bank. I happened to see a different maid outside putting a ticket on my car. I ran and explained that that lady right there told me which meter was mine. The other metermaid explained that it was her fault. She calls the supervisor and she tells me to call the # on the ticket and go to court. she tells the lady to void the ticket on the car in front. I wanted to know why she would not void my ticket. She explained that I used the wrong meter...that's why. I will fight the $25 ticket. Good thing I had my camera phone. some people should know that carma is a b- - - -.

It is good you write this crap because these people have to be stopped. They are a Government Agency out of control, with no intention of doing what's right, and no concern for the public whom they screw everyday. You have to waste time going to court. What if your car was towed? The reason that they were there when you came back was that they were getting ready to tow it. That would had been $200 plus. They are in charge of fining and collecting fines, and also in charge of the cab industry which they call a 'hospitality initiative".. THEY MAKE ME SICK

You can apply at any restaurant in the area. Grocery stores will hire bag boys. Lawn care or light construction but they usually want year round help during the day. Bike messengers in downtown. Most retail places are worth checking into if you know something about what they sell..
2 :
Go to any ACME and your practically guaranteed a bagger position (or maybe even a cashier). We're always looking for new people over the summer, and you get good hours and good pay.

Yes. The Philadelphia City Wage Tax applies to all taxable compensation to residents of Philadelphia, even if earned outside of Philadelphia, and to non-residents for services performed within Philadelphia.
2 :
You always pay taxes where you live, not where you work.

About Is it a good idea to live in New York and work in Philadelphia

Is it a good idea to live in New York and work in Philadelphia?

And commute daily? Not a good idea.
2 :
Not to mention that they're two hours apart. You'll get sacked with taxes. You'll pay New York City income tax PLUS Philadelphia non-resident wage tax.
3 :
it would be rather inconvenient and quite expensive to commute and also pay unusually high taxes in two locations. It is also more common to live in or near Philadelphia and commute to NYC than the reverse. That is because housing tends to be much more expensive in NYC than Phila. or its suburbs.
4 :
thats really far away, if u wanna work in philly i suggest south nj.
5 :
no, that's a bad idea. Too far of a commute and you'll be taxed so much that it's just not going to be economical.
6 :
Why on earth would you do that? o_O Absolutely not it's like a 5 hour commute.
7 :
Nobody with brains or money wants to live in NY. The tax policy & bridge tolls alone make it a reason to leave. Even a pack of cigs cost your first born male child up there....
8 :
I would not unless this is a dire situation. I live in the northern suburbs of Philadelphia and its about an hour and a half to manhattan (I'm assuming you're in the new your city area) It will take you probably 3 hours or more during rush hour to get here.
9 :
A commuter ticket on the Amtrak train between New York and Philadelphia is $1,242.00 per month. It'd have to be a heck of a job. Normally people who work in Philadelphia live in the city or in nearby parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, or Delaware.
