Here is the situation for someone I know

1) Is a Teacher's Aide 2) No Union 3) Contract says 20 working days notice but lists no penalties for not doing so.

She gave two weeks notice a week ago. A few days later, they said she had to work 20 business days. Now, she had an offer from another school but they need her to start BEFORE her 20 required business days at the old school.

Some people have said that, in NJ, she would be blacklisted and would not be able to take t eh new job if she leaves the old one early. She has tried to speak to her current employers but they will NOT waive the 20 days. She may lose the new opportunity by having to wait.

Any solutions?
ron/nj I've never heard of being being black balled in NJ. There are so many people looking for a job, they can fill that vacancy in a heartbeat. Tell your friend, take the job w/o any regrets, don't worry and be happy.
