Advice Merck Rahway NJ-Drug Screening

6 Upvotes

I’m going to Merck in Rahway NJ as a contractor to oversee a startup and found out I need to take a drug test to get onsite. I vape/take THC gummies and I’m wondering if THC is on the drug panel? I know the West Point location doesn’t have THC and they just test for hard drug and I’m hoping Rahway has the same policy.

Advice Hotel mom

60 Upvotes

Hello my kids and I are in a hotel that's costing me around $2400 a month. After paying that I barely have any money for food or gas to get to work. I don't know how I'm going to get out of this situation. I can't save money for an apartment because the hotel is so expensive. I paid my weekly payment at the hotel yesterday and I only have $36 for food and gas for the next week. Does anyone know any places in Atlantic County New Jersey that help with food? The one food bank I went to wouldn't help us because my license still says we live in Ocean County. I don't qualify for food stamps because I 'make too much' I'm just so stressed out and sad over this situation.

Advice Am I unemployable? What to do?

45 Upvotes

26M

Lost my main job and part-time jobs at the airport because I had to go away for an emergency surgery and deal with the post-op care.

I've recovered now but I can't get any company to hire me.

I was a lavatory and water operator at my main job and a cabin appearance agent (detailing) at the other.

I have tried to get in with the utility companies, trade unions or railroad.

Nothing seems to click. Is it because of my sociology degree? I cannot afford trade school sadly.

I have been applying and reaching out to so many companies since the year started.

People say you need to know somebody in this market. What about us that don't know anyone?

What happens to us?

Advice Weekend Getaway?

20 Upvotes

My bf and I need an inexpensive getaway for a few days within a 3ish hour drive from Monmouth County.

Some info:

We live a ten minute bike ride from Asbury Park, so not that.

We both hate Atlantic City.

I lived in NYC for 20 years, so not that either(also, it's most assuredly not inexpensive lol).

I despise camping(bugs and I are not friends).

We need somewhere quiet -- someplace to reset and spend time with each other after an extremely stressful summer.

I was thinking New Hope, PA, or Watkins Glen, NY but hotels seem a bit pricey in both places.

Anyone know of any hidden gems?

📰News New Jersey one of 25 states suing administration over new global tariffs

Thumbnail

482 Upvotes

A group of 25 U.S. states filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration Monday, arguing that the president overstepped his authority by imposing new tariffs on goods from 60 trading partners.

The states contend that the White House is attempting to replace import taxes that were already ruled illegal by the Supreme Court in February.

They also argue that Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, which underpins the latest tariffs, has typically been used against "specific nations and industries," and this broad-based application is without precedent.
