In order to be considered an exempt employee in California, an employee will generally need to meet a strict duties test. For most exemptions, more than fifty percent of an employee's time must be spent performing exempt job duties. Job titles do not determine a California employee's exempt or nonexempt status.
I haven't used Southwest gift cards before, but I have purchased tickets for my kids to fly without me. You can pay for the ticket with your credit card and as long as you fill in her details exactly as it appears on her ID she will use for travel, it should be no problem. If she has access to email, use her email address for the notifications.
Re: Why do creditor use Experian when it is NOT a FICO score. There is simply no such thing as an Exp, Eq, or TU score. They are only the CRAs who maintain your credit file. When you get any credit score, they all use the credit files of the CRA upon which the score is calculated. No credit scoring vendor, including Fair Issac, maintains yuour current crdit file information. So they must cross-license access with the CRAs in order to get the data needed to genarate any credit score.
