Bare naked ladies

SMace · August 2003

Now that I have your attention, my boss and I disagree on whether many companies do criminal background checks. I have two quick questions:

1. Do you do criminal background checks?
2. How many ee's do you have?

Thanks.

Hatchetman · August 2003

Yes, even though we only hire the best bare naked ladies around.

We have about 2400 bare naked ladies including licensed professionals. I'm the only clothed male around.

Clever! We do - five entities, approximately 1,200 employees.

What company do you use to get your background checks? I get advertisements in the mail for someone doing this for me but not sure if it is valid? They do criminal records, credit, driving, worker's comp, ss verification and employer referencing for less than $20 per check. Does this sound normal?

Thanks.

Betty I_O · August 2003

Yes, we do . . . 1,200 employees (not all bare naked ladies--we'd never get ANYTHING done!)

LindaS · August 2003

We do as well - 120 employees.

aingram · August 2003

Great way to get a response! I should have thought of that before! We do background checks and currently have 164 employees.

We do statewide (meaning state they were recruited from) background and social security checks. We also do drug screens.

We have about 500 employees.

We leave the bare naked ladies to the police dept.

Clever!

Yes we do
150 employees

Hunter1 · August 2003

Yes, 250 employees. If I had time, I'd look into the laws on false advertising or 'bait and switch' with regard to this posting : )

SMace · August 2003

I'm afraid I might turn into the boy that cried wolf. I promise I'll never do this again. I actually got it from a band called the bare naked ladies. When they started out they did it to get people to come to their show. They are actually a good band with an incredible live performace.

System · August 2003

Am I the only one who's disappointed that this isn't a discussion about the rock band? I love 'em, I met 'em, I got all their CDs (except the stinky Maroon).

OMG, I just envisioned James with Bare Naked Ladies! #-o Gee, is that Margaret on his left there? x:o

HS · August 2003

SMace, they are all just jealous because they didn't think of it first. I did actually think of the band when I saw the subject line. Never seen them live, but do like their music.

Sunny · August 2003

I hate it but we don't do background checks. We have 250 employees in Alabama and about 2200 nationally.

Lola815 · August 2003

we do background checks and drug testing and we have about 75 employees.

bamahr · August 2003

We also do background checks - 200 employees

mwild31 · August 2003

We have 108 employees (manufacturing environment). We only do criminal background checks on our delivery drivers & accounting folks.

System · August 2003

Nationwide we have 50k+ employees. Your question was about criminal background checks. We do those on certain levels of employees. Not on factory workers. Any candidate for the following levels, yes: engineering, accounting/finance, customer service, HR, sales, legal (ahem), quality control, and any management or supervisory level position. We do the employment type background checks on all employees, including a urinalysis on temps. Naked ladies must be capable of supporting the weight of normal clothing but that is a question and answer test only, nothing physical.

HRQ · August 2003

1. Yes
2. 400 (Many attempt to come in to work what I consider to be semi-naked.)

DeidreFR5 · August 2003

Yes, we do a criminal (felony) history, credit history and references
We have 160 semi-appropriately dressed employees

Balloonman · August 2003

MrCreosote · August 2003

I like bare naked ladies, but not all of them.

Crout · August 2003

Isn't "bare naked" redundant? Oh....yes we do....450 ee's.

SMace · August 2003

Atually, it is. Actually, it is. As you can see, I have a problem. As you can see I have a problem. ;-).

ray a · August 2003

1. NO

2. 203, all usually fully clothed.

RoadKing · August 2003

Public sector.

Yes we do on nearly 400 Commissioners ee's. Some other elected officials do, some don't.
