• With Joannie and Nae around, I'd be more worried about the search results from four letter words! O:)

• Does anybody have any other movie quotes? Bueller? Bueller?

• My problem with watching Celebrity Apprentice is simple: I don't care about the result. I watched a few times early on, thinking I would see someone who could make me want to root for them, but they were all such caricatures... it just didn't happe…

• Good timing... I just attended a GLBT awareness workshop this morning. The bathroom subject did not come up, though.

• Oh, they just wave me through.

• It may not be a question of how big Churchill Downs is, Paul. The real question may be "How unengaged is this boss?"

• I use the Blues Brothers line "I hate Illinois Nazis" waaaay too often. I think they may end up putting that on my tombstone.

• I'm just telling everyone I fire they get the subsidy until further notice. :mad:

  in another COBRA ARRA question Comment by ACU Frank March 2010
• Some movies are just one non-stop quotefest - Monty Python's Holy Grail, Princess Bride, Blues Brothers, Stripes, just to name a few of the best. I use quotes from those movies on a weekly (or even daily) basis, just to keep from having to develop a…

• I don't get it... It starts with "highly successful Human Resources director", then it shifts to "she". Which was it? ::pb&J::

  in hr joke Comment by ACU Frank March 2010
• Our voluntary-to-involuntary term ratio started dropping in late '08, and was rock bottom throughout '09. In the past few months, it has climbed quickly. Throughout the years, that's been a solid economic indicator for me, and I see it as a sign tha…

  in Less problems? Comment by ACU Frank March 2010
• I used a movie quote a few weeks ago... but I used it on the only person in the whole organization who would get it... When he came in to vent about a co-worker, I listened for about 30 seconds, slowly waved my hand once between us, and simply said…

• I was the only adolescent boy in the United States who did not watch Charlie's Angels.

• I'm not saying they should be doing this... but it could be the reason why.

  in Terminal EE Requests FMLA Comment by ACU Frank March 2010
• I would assume they use a rolling 12 months and they want to see how much of the 12 weeks they can say has already been used.

• The Office is dying a not-so-slow death. I've seen two episodes this season, and didn't care for either of them. It's gotten to the point that I'd rather trot out my DVDs from prior seasons and watch them again. Sadly, the past season or so has a…

• I'm pretty extreme about references. If it's factual, documented, and work-related, it's fair game - as long as you have the ex-EE's signed release. I had a tough one yesterday. The guy isn't eligible for rehire, and I let the reference-checke…

• Additionally, become familiar with your state's "Good Samaritan" laws... Most states provide [I]some[/I] protection to people who are trying to help, but some states provide more protection than others.

• You know how people who go barefoot a lot develop calluses???

  in HR Friendly Recruiting/Applicant Software Comment by ACU Frank March 2010
• Our tracking is done through ADP. Building the online app is a PITA, but the reporting is very nice. Of course, it also reduces my data entry at the time of hire, as well.

• We pay at the rate in effect when vacation is used.

• I have an application sitting in front of me right now... right up Paul's alley! He lists his supervisor from his current job, where he has been about 18 months. Prior to that, he worked for "Dan [U]?-[/U]stein" for about a year, and before that …

• I will work with an employee as long as I need to if they are truly motivated to improve. If they aren't, they're stealing my time from other employees who could use it.

• People who say there are no bad employees... are probably bad employees. Just sayin'.
