Question:

Stilk was one of 12 crew members hired by Myrick to work on his ship. All members of the crew signed a contract which included a clause requiring them to do “all that they could under all emergencies of the voyage. ”While in port, two of the crew members quit their jobs and walked away. Myrick was unable to hire any replacements so spoke with the remaining crew members and promised them the wages of the two members. The remaining crew members agreed and worked the balance of the voyage. However, Myrick then refused to pay out the wages of the two members, contrary to his promise. Stilk wants to sue Myrick for breach of contract. What is the argument that Myrick does not have to pay the extra wages? Do you agree with that argument?

I tutored mostly elementary school students privately after school and during the summer. We met in their homes or at the public library. I charged an hourly fee, and I provided any necessary materials. Having taught in special education in two local schools for many years meant that I had contact with a lot of parents of special needs students. I never had to advertise — word of mouth was how most folks knew of me. At one point I did have a website but didn't utilize it much. I stayed very busy, especially in the summers, and always had a full schedule. I typically met with each student's teacher in order to get an idea of what the focus of my instruction/remediation should be. Becoming familiar with the student's learning style(s) was also very helpful. Often parents would share records and test results with me. After each tutoring session, I documented the student’s progress and gave parents written updates, as well as phone calls or emails as needed.
