Is this legal...?

Or is it one of those things where nonprofits can get away with discrimination?

Looking at job postings for office/ops manager type of work and came across one for an org that does family behavioral services. They require their employees to be raising or have raised a child with mental health, emotional, or behavioral challenges. It's the first thing they say in the job description and is reiterated under minimum qualifications.

That seems like the kind of question you wouldn't even be allowed to ask in an interview. There's nothing else to suggest that an operations manager would be required to have a background in child psychology, etc. but this organisation appears to only consider for employment people who's children (or guardians of, etc etc) have these conditions...?

What reasons could there be for reporting inflated salary to insurance audit?

I asked this elsewhere on a nonprofit specific thread but not getting much response. Wondering if insurance people can give some better guidance on this.

I was going through some documents related to our NP organisational insurance and came upon a self-audit form asking to describe the nature of the business and list employees, roles, and gross wages, plus OT/tips if applicable.

I immediately noticed that the gross wage the ED (who filled it out and signed it) listed for me is significantly more than what I actually make and was stated in my end of 2025 compensation increase letter. To the tune of $2,500. I don't know if he inflated other salaries as well, of course. But he's also the one who decides, prepares, and signs annual compensation letters, so he has the accurate information on hand and had to have chosen to lie.

I double checked the numbers and even if he included the year-end bonus I received for 2025 (which was paid in and taxed as 2025 compensation and shouldn't be reported with 2026 compensation) the numbers are still way off.

Any thoughts on what's going on here? I have a lot of concerns about this ED's professionalism in a lot of categories and am just about ready to have a sit-down with board leadership anyway (if I don't get an "escape hatch" offer first) but is this yet another item for my long, \*long\* "problems list"?

Just sharing as only *notable* side effect in 6 months

I've been really happy with my Oz journey thus far (started a week before Christmas and I'm currently down 27 pounds, so slightly more than one pound a week).I have had next to no unwanted side effects, basically just feeling fuller through most of the day. Nothing at all unmanageable!

​

The only thing I've experienced so far has been just this week and just wanted to share for info to others and to see if anybody else has experienced this.

​

Monday evening, I think I ate something that was just a *bit* gone over. I'd made a tuna and chickpea salad on Saturday evening and it was fine that night and Sunday. I think 48 hours, even in the tupperware in the fridge, was a bit too long for the leftovers.

​

It could be way worse, but I was definitely "eliminating" that early Tuesday and had several loose movements since. Still rather bloated and tender so I've been careful about keeping the diet bland and BRATty. I used to have some IBS-like issues before I started taking a probiotic/prebiotic but not had those problems in about a year.

​

I'm betting, however, that part of why these symptoms are kind of taking a bit longer to fully resolve is because of the Oz slowing down digestion, and so leaving the stuff I don't want hanging around more than it otherwise might.

​

Has anybody else found it takes longer to get through a digestive/food poisoning type of issue since starting on the jab?

ED weird, unprofessional behavior

Ok, this is something that has been going on for some while but seems to be getting weirder/more frequent recently.

I'm in an extremely small NP and most days it's only myself and ED onsite. ED is in my opinion grossly incompetent (doesn't understand some *really* basic things about 501c3s, refuses to follow retention schedules in the interest of just getting rid of "old" things, etc). Then there's the treatment of vendors, which has been appalling - talking down to and sometimes outright shouting at their CSRs, to the point that some of them have had upper level/C-suite leadership tell ED not to contact them again. I can't tell you how many times I've heard calls on speakerphone in which the other party ended up saying some version of "I can't continue with this call if you keep using that tone with me". Another employee had to go to the executive committee about being accused of insubordination for asking how to do something a new program. I, apparently, am considered the "friend" employee and (so far, because narcissists are only nice while they think they can use you) the narcissistic bullying hasn't been directed at me.

But being the "friend", I also get told about all kinds of *weird* things that seem to happen to ED on an astonishingly frequent basis. Like random strangers (or members!) hitting on ED. This is said with an almost boastful tone and often happens several times a week. It's starting to weird me out, being "confided" to about all these people who appear to be sexualising the ED so routinely. But there's certainly nobody else around to verify what I'm hearing and if I raise something to leadership it's obviously not going to be anonymous. And then there's the fact that I'm pretty sure none of these incidents are even occurring anyway because I think ED is some kind of compulsive liar, given some other things I see, hear, and have had contradicted.

I'm actively looking for a new position elsewhere anyway, for reasons too numerous to get into, but I'm sure I don't need to point out how futile that's been over the last year. Even I think the best advice is to deal with it until something else comes along, but given the laundry list of issues this ED has displayed (oh, there's WAY more than the stuff mentioned above!) is this getting into the realm of a sexual harassment concern that *shouldn't* be shrugged off? To be frank, I don't feel "harassed" and I also don't want to bring it up if it's only going to result in my losing my "protected status" and having to deal with the ugly side of ED's personality disorder, but where's the line here...?
