Former Employer giving bad references!?
I am currently unemloyed and am looking for a job, my problem is that I keep getting a bad referance from my last employer. It is not from the HR dept it is from the office manager who took my place, she fields the calls so when they call to ask about me she takes the call and gives me a bad referance! I hired this chick too! I know this for a fact because I have called asking about myself and heard the nasty things she said which were compeltly untrue and well she wasnt even my boss, she was my employee, What can I do to make her stop this because it has cost me more then one job. How do you stop someone from giving bad referances that are not true?

Do I have to keep asking a reference for permission if I want to give their information to a potential employer?
If you are being asked to provide a character reference (personal), some people want to know each time (so they can prepare) and some will tell you to go ahead and not ask them.If the potential employer is asking for professional references, you are providing contact information and allowing them to consult your current and previous employers. You can check a box that indicates you don't want them to call your current job (for whatever reason), but it's a very commonplace occurrence for potential employers to call former employers. It's usually a specific person's job to answer those calls.Most employers have a very limited amount of information that can legally provide (at least in the United States) or are willing to say, and most won't say anything negative. They will give information such as "Date Started," "Date Left," and "Salary."Most won't go any further than that. However, if someone presses them for information that they are not legal to ask of the application and try to engage them them in an "off the record," they will usually use words that indicate, "No Comment." A "no comment" is heard loud and clear by everyone. It means they don't want to be the ones to throw you under the bus. You certainly can't go back to that prospective employer and say, "My current (or past) employer probably gave a "no comment," so here's a better one. That almost always implies the reference they are receive (from you) is false.Don't include a reference who might not have been entirely pleased with your performance, because a "No Comment," can mean the difference between being offered the job, or rejected.Also, NEVER give a reference to someone without telling them (depending on how they've answered your question above). I've been caught off guard a few times, getting phone calls and hearing, "______ provided your name as a reference." My first reaction is usually, "Really?" unless I am waiting for a someone to call.NEVER give a reference that might answer like that (I don't do it purposely), because people won't give you a job if they believe they are catching someone providing reference information without permission.This information (above) applies whether you are asking for a performance reference, a housing reference, etc. Also, you can look up my answer somewhere explaining that many resumes with scratch outs and over writes are thrown out and never seen. That used to be my job -- throwing them out.
Can i still get a job if McDonald's doesn't give me a Reference?
You will still be able to get other jobs. You worked for two years at the same job so even if you left on bad terms, that counts for something. When interveiwing for a new job, be as honest as possible and tell them you left your other job without notice due to a family emergency. Assure them that the family issue has been resolved and you are now able to look for a new job. Even if Mc D's gives you a bad reference, your honesty in the situation will helpful. Try to avoid talking badly about your other manager though. New managers do not like to hear bad things about previous managers because they always assume you will say the same things about them in future interviews.
In MLA format, do you have to cite after every sentence?
(A2A) From the OWL MLA guide:———————————“When I am repeatedly quoting or paraphrasing the same source in my paper, do I have to keep citing that source at the end of each sentence?When you reference the same source more than once in the same paragraph, and no other source intervenes, you may give the in-text citation just once at the end of the paragraph. If, however, this technique creates any ambiguity about your reference, it is better to cite the source every time you reference it.For example:Romeo and Juliet presents an opposition between two worlds: “the world of the everyday,” associated with the adults in the play, and “the world of romance,” associated with the two lovers. Romeo and Juliet’s language of love nevertheless becomes “fully responsive to the tang of actuality” (Zender 138, 141).This makes clear that the first quotation is from the first page number in the parentheses, and the second quotation is from the second number.There are other ways to do this as well. You may cite the author’s name with the page number after the first direct quotation, and just list the page number after the second quotation.Romeo and Juliet presents an opposition between two worlds: “the world of the everyday,” associated with the adults in the play, and “the world of romance,” associated with the two lovers (Zender 138). Romeo and Juliet’s language of love nevertheless becomes “fully responsive to the tang of actuality” (141).”MLA Formatting and Style Guide
