Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Holly is entitled to recover the difference between the wages at the two jobs plus the $100 she spent to obtain the new job. This is because Great broke their contract with Holly, causing her to lose out on the promised salary. Holly then had to spend money and time finding a new job that may not have paid as well as the original job. Therefore, she is entitled to compensation for this loss.
