Somedays they act like my children at home but at least at home I can send them to their rooms or take away snack!

Not all women on the Forum are 34, I get to check in at 30!! I would agree that I am older acting/thinking than some that I work with but then again some of them have the maturity level of a 5 year old. Okay I vented enough!

No one here wears anything for Halloween but I was able to find a black shirt with a red glitter witch on it with the word "wicked" above it. I figure most people will say that it fits for HR!

I like to believe that I am an x0:) but some of the ee's probably see me as the x}> or :~~!!!

We saw snow flurries on Monday here in Minnesota. Too early for snow for me. Today it was 50 degrees on my way to work, a nice change from the last few mornings.

She seemed to be doing okay. She was filled with lots of questions last night and paid a lot of attention to the news. She said that they were going to be discussing the shootings in school today with teachers. I was surprised about how calm she see…

I know my first instinct is going to be to tell her that it won't happen at her school but I know that I can't promise her that. Thanks for the advice. It just saddens me to think that this is what our world has come to.

Makes it worse that I am the only one to admit to trying it! x:-8

You know it is time for a few days off when you actually sit here and try to lick your elbow!!!

Being that we are a manufacturing company some of our best light duty activities are sorting the different coarses of grinding wheels and the nuts & bolts. It really is amazing how much quicker some people recover.

I loved Mister Rogers when I was young. But the worst part of it was that my Dad looked just like him, he even wore the dress pants with tennis shoes and cardigan sweaters. In 1st grade my friends thought my Dad was Mister Rogers!!! As I grew older …

My sister was almost completely grey by age 25 and I gave her so much grief. Well the paybacks began a year ago when my daughter told her that I had grey hairs. Seems my daughter finds humor in it, just wait until she gets older.
-
Claudia, I know the feeling. I will turn 30 in 7 months and I have more than a few grey hairs. The sad part is I noticed mine 2 years ago. I like to blame it on my HR job!!!
-
We occasionally still have ee's that complain about our cookouts but my thoughts are then don't attend. The last cookout that we had all the management decided that we need to mingle more so we all had to sit at a table with no other management. It …

During the few months when there is no snow here in MN we have monthly cookouts. We give the employees an hour for lunch and then we grill hamburgers/hot dogs or fried chicken, we provide all the fixins. We also set out tables in our production area…

It is so assuring to find out that we all feel the same way. I've been in HR a few years but only as a manager for 1 year. This year I have had to do 2 sets of layoffs each with approx. 9 employees and they were all done in 1 day. Nobody wanted to b…

MN only requires employers to allow sufficient time to eat a meal if an EE works 8 hours or more. The ER must also allow the EE adequate time from work every 4 hours to use the restroom. Breaks less than 20 mins may not be deducted from their hours.…

We started offering pre-paid legal services about 2 years ago. I signed up for it thinking it would be a good deal and in a years time I used it once to update my will. Needless to say I cancelled the benefit for myself. Out of 110 current employees…

As you can tell not great creditials!!! But at least it set the bar low for me.
-
I don't recommend taking the same approach as this previous HR manager did, but I did promise to post this. This went out in email form to all of us. The bathroom located in the front office should only be used for "Number 1"(peeing). No "Number 2…
-
We had/have the same problem here. A few years ago the former HR sent out an email asking people not to use that bathroom for #2!! Very inappropriate but you could hear the whole office laughing all at once. I'll try and find the email and post it.

We are a dairy industry manufacturing plant and do pre-emp physicals that include a upper extremity screen, a back screen including a lifting test, drug screen, respiratory use and pulmonary fuction test. We send all of our production employees thro…

We actually have an Employee Club Committee that plans all our events. HR and one individual from Sales heads the club but then we have volunteers from other departments. Our Receptionist is on the club which is a great help to type up the notes and…

No policies on teeth brushing! I just wanted to make sure that if I spoke to him directly that it wouldn't seem like I am targeting just him. I'd address everyone if this was a widespread problem but its not. I'm going to let him know that it needs …
-
I figure that I will walk thru the break room today and if I see him doing it then I can address him personally. Some days I feel like a babysitter.

If anyone has one, I would love to see it too. My email is [email]ahedlund@scherping.carlisle.com[/email] Thanks, Amy

We recognize every 5 years. The gift certificates start at $50 and go up $50 every 5 years. The EE's get to pick the place for the gift certificate and they are awarded at a luncheon that we have every quarter. Just recently we handed out (2) 25 yea…

I opened the sealed envelope, half expecting to open some curse or plague. As pointed out in some of the responses it was bogus. No need for it to be in a sealed envelope, nothing of sensitive or confidental matters.
-
Thanks for the advice. I am the manager of HR, the only HR!! The envelope was placed in the file before I took this position, so there is no one to ask about the contents. I feel that I need to know what is in there in case there is ever another iss…
