And be prepared with your rebuttal in mid-October when they tell you they want her fired.

The first album I bought with my own money was Yellow Submarine.
-
I don't necessarily agree that you [B]can't[/B] ask... but to do so in this day and age would 'prove' that it is a factor in the hiring decision. That's probably a road you don't want to travel.

The zombies will be left. Don't forget them.

Thanks Alan! And by the way, you must be pretty old, because only us old guys (and Gameshow Network addicts) even remember that there [B]was[/B] another Alan King! Kids these days are lucky, 'cuz you're the only Alan King they will ever know! …

If anyone can describe here how to make chocolate covered bacon (I'm sure there is one way better than the others), I would make some for my son.

Suzanne - First of all, welcome to the Forum! I hope you find it to be a great resource for you, and hopefully you will have lots to add yourself! Now, regarding you question... I'm not sure if we have anyone here from California anymore. Typica…

I wish all my benefits worked as smoothly as my STD/LTD plans. Which raises the question: What's your insurance agent's motive? He's obviously trying to steer you in a certain direction through misinformation.

The more homework you do now, the less money you will pay the attorney. There is nothing worse than knowing you are paying someone a few hundred dollars an hour to listen to you leaf through files, policies, and handbooks.

Paul - This is mostly a liability invented by Labor Attorneys and consultants. I've dug into this several times in the past, and as near as I can tell, the only employers who have been smacked for giving bad references were clearly malicious. A…

That would depend on what you think he said. I'm just happy that [I]if[/I] John is making references to me, they are here, and not on his blog. Because [B]that[/B] can't be good.
-
I have more than one employee who has told me they will dance on their ex's grave. Does that count?
-
Before anyone gets the wrong idea (and how on earth would that happen?) I should point out that I have never created or delivered a presentation while drunk. In fact, I don't drink and never have, unless you count a minor indiscretion in 1978 involv…
-
Thanks Nae! I think the video John posted missed one important factor, though... We all want to make our presentations memorable, right?
-
Okay... I didn't think I would have to say it, but Paul is making me. [B]Just kidding, people![/B]
-
I don't recruit. If these kids today can't show enough initiative to come in and ask if I'm hiring, then they aren't what I'm looking for.
-
If it helps, just imagine Ayn Rand as a zombie.
-
Air drums are too much work. And when I hit the roto-toms like only I can, no one seems to appreciate the artistry.
-
We were faced with a similar situation, so we chose music without programmers.
-
The same assistant manager has a history of poor judgment involving pregnant co-workers and outrageous 'maternal' missteps. One of her direct reports lost a toddler in a car accident a few years ago. Last year, assistant manager decided to abort …
-
They are banned here. Actual quote from the CEO: "Do you think I want to hear employees walking around here singing all day?"
-
Just today I had an assistant manager refuse to accept an employee's letter of resignation. She told the employee it would be a violation of HR rules, because the employee - who is quitting to go have a baby - didn't provide a doctor's note with the…

I like the DOL's sample. It's within my budget.
-
I think SHRM has a book you can buy on when to use paper clips vs. staples.
-
Holy? Since we are in the HR-de-har-har section of the forum, is it okay to take the easy road with a retort involving a 'vow of chastity'?
-
My wife still has earring holes (just the "normal" ones) that haven't closed up after 20 years.
-
Are you sure? That NEVER happens! hahahahahahahaha
-
Dutch - Here's a link to a discussion on the topic... Just skimming it, it looks like you're probably okay on this. [URL]http://www.nonprofitrisk.org/library/articles/employment010208.shtml[/URL] Of course, I have a soft spot for unwed mothe…

Pants? That is even [B]more[/B] statistically unlikely. The biggest difficulty I would have is that the relay is split up into 36 legs, with each of the 12 runners taking 3 legs in rotation. It would be easier for me to do 15 miles at once, for e…

Hood to Coast is pretty funky... It's nearly 200 miles, and it's a relay - with each team having up to 12 runners. Registration closes pretty quickly - I think they hit their team limit on the first day you can sign up. I'd like to try it sometime…
