The Manager of the company I work for, gave my co-workers and I a In store credit we could use to buy item. I was cautious at first and dint use it but after several of my coworkers did I decided to try it. Now we are all being told that if any of us leave without paying off our in store credit we used the owner will take us to small claims court. I am at a loss for what to do and feel very uncomfortable with what has happened.

That's a lousy situation, but it might be what you agreed to when you accepted the credit. Your best approach would probably be to just pay it off and don't ever do anything like that again. It seems like something that shouldn't even be legal, as it's a way to coerce people to keep working there. But it may be legal. Might be interesting to talk to a lawyer and see what laws might apply.

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?
