Actually, under current Kansas Law, it is illegal to even tell jokes referencing evolution.

I was formerly HR Manager for a couple of Home Depot stores, and we had turkey-frying demonstrations in the week before Thanksgiving and again the week before Christmas. If you ever have an opportunity to watch someone who knows what they are doing…

There will be an extension... I think you can be sure of that. I'm most concerned about the prospects of having the subsidy expire, then see a retroactive extension passed a month or two into the new year. That, my friends, will suck.

Current rate... Same as when they actually take the vacation and you put the vacation pay on their paycheck. There should be no difference.

Nae is in the lead for my Most Beloved Person of the Day award. Thanks for this!

A true fan would want to see a cozy Abe!

[B][I]"Will springs from the two elements of moral sense and self-interest."[/I][/B] Abraham Lincoln, 1857, in his commentary on the Dred Scott decision. In fact, Lincoln frequently had to illustrate the importance of self-interest in getting me…

Convenience is important these days. For example, it used to be very inconvenient to watch TV here in the Lincoln Memorial. It's chilly, and my blanket covered my arms and hands, making it almost impossible to use the remote. The Snuggie? Now, that…

That marble chair gets cold at night.

No problem. Just make it in their self interests, convenient, and easy.

Oh, I'm sure there are 200 different versions on Youtube. After hearing about it as much as I have, though, I didn't think it necessary to actually watch it.

Makes great sense... As a parent, one of the first things you learn is that kids 'behave' when they understand what's in it for them. Employees are no different. The challenge you will face, Paul, is getting your supervisors to be patient enough fo…

A few weeks ago, I found a Youtube video of a toddler who was walking from room-to-room, and each time he would encounter his mother he would throw himself on the floor and wail in great pain. When his mother would walk away, he would dust himself o…

I needed another poll answer to choose from: "Come to work, do your job, and don't pause in front of my door and cough violently to make sure I know what a trouper you are."

To answer the question posed in the Thread subject, Yes. I am a hero. Learn to live with it.

I didn't see the Adam Lambert bit. It sounded fairly contrived, but I don't know that I object to it any more than half the stuff Madonna did on stage.

As I tweeted this morning ... I was struck by the originality, talent and sheer entertainment value of Lady GaGa, but also found her costuming a bit disturbing. For her song Bad Romance, she and her dancers wore body suits that left little to the…

I think I'll link John's video to a tweet, as an example of Obama's disastrous anti-business policies, just to see if any of the RWNJs (Right Wing Nut Jobs) who troll my Twitter feed take the bait.

Erica - The primary question is this: How do you [I]want[/I] to handle it? This is a long-time employee, and as such, probably has a better-than-average record of accomplishments. You are most likely safe to show as much - or little - compassio…

By 'guys', you mean John Phillips and Tony?

I thought that was Rush Limbaugh's house!

You know, when I originally saw the title of this thread I thought you were going to talk about that first hour of the day during which several women in the office apply their makeup. I assume that happens when they get too many phone calls on the…

I'm sure our Work Comp carrier would be thrilled for us to bring our dogs to the office... they could keep our toddlers company, or even answer our phones while we're busy cleaning our firearms and polishing that chainsaw juggling act for the county…

Just as long as they didn't leave for any bottletree forums.

She's smiling because she has the remote. And she has the remote because her husband doesn't have a Snuggie. [B]He's[/B] forced to use an old-fashioned blanket, which [B]doesn't [/B]allow you to use your hands and keep them warm at the same time. …

Trivia: Who was primetime television's first married couple to be shown in the bedroom [I]without[/I] the separate beds and one foot on the floor rule?

We have a flex-schedule policy which would allow the employee to do what you are describing, but ONLY if it is requested AND approved IN ADVANCE. Otherwise, if you're scheduled and not here we pull from your leave bank. If you have no leave left a…

Hey, there's a fine line sometimes between harassment and an employee benefit!

That's why I eliminated the substance abuse policy here... and the sexual harassment policy as well. It was a win-win!

I don't work on the wharf, so I've not heard any of these words. I've heard of their existence, but I thought that was urban legend.
