He's the owner, so you're not going to be able to fire him or the person who hired him. In my experience, small business owners are usually the last ones to understand this particular area of proper behavior.

I'M BEHIND YOU ALL THE WAY. Way, way behind you.

[QUOTE=Celeste Blackburn;722758]You are right Frank. Just so you know, Schickman knows his Shakespeare. In his column he corrected the common misinterpretation of "First, let's kill all the lawyers." : [INDENT]"Nobody remembers that it was uttered…

Whoa... There are enough real dragons out there... no need to go after imaginary ones.

Shakespeare is always worth quoting.

Good info. The reason I asked is I see a lot of companies letting the tail wag the dog to an extent... That is, decisions are made based on the perceived need to maintain grandfathered status, rather than the overall outcome. Initially, we were on…

What was the rationale for maintaining grandfathered status? What aspect of your plan are you protecting?

Our Compliance Officer reports directly to the CEO. I wouldn't do it any other way.

Only once in the past ten years has an employee sent out a negative goodbye e-mail to my staff. I used it as an opportunity to respond to the other employees with a message along the lines of "I was very disappointed to learn that __________'s expe…

Just ask yourself... What's the worst thing that can happen if I terminate someone who is careless with firearms? :-/

[QUOTE=NaeNae55;722717]I wondered how many forumites would not even know who Madge was. [/QUOTE] You're soaking in it!

Whether you talk to the IT guy about it or not, you need to promptly send an e-mail or other written (documented) memo to the owners letting them know his activity is most likely creating HIPAA violations, and depending on your written policies coul…

Any true "pay for performance" system should start with periodic and scheduled performance incentives, not annual increases. High performance can be a temporary thing, but repeatable. Keep the rewards just as temporary, and just as repeatable.

I hired a new manager who started yesterday. He was employed, and we hired him over one internal candidate and a half-dozen other 'finalists'. Only one of the other external finalists was employed. Several of the people we interviewed mentioned …

Excellent, as always! But maybe even more excellent this week! =D>

I don't disagree with Paul's comment, but I think I see this as a good thing regardless. We've all had employees who had undue influence over their coworkers. Most of the time, in my experience, those coworkers are fairly like-minded about the c…

She may have, but I know she did NOT have a thing for work!

We recently had an ex-EE apply for a position that would have been a step up from the one she used to have with us. On her application, she put that the "previous HR director" and the "previous VP of Ops" were discriminatory and forced her out four…

Sticking with the theme... I understand the store may have reasons for not wanting "A Whiter Shade of Pale" working the makeup counter. I just wish they would be as strict with "Rocky Raccoon".
-
Haha No, not on purpose... This time.

Looks like I unintentionally hit a nerve.

Friday came and went... I small-talked a minute or so with him on the phone, waiting for the manager to be available... but nothing. It's possible that one his friends - possibly one of the other gay employees - told him I'm just straight, not obl…

Spot on, Nae. Spot on.

If we offered that position here, I can guarantee you within minutes someone would whine about not being allowed to do it from home.

It could be work-related, depending on any benefits eligibility questions that may follow.

I juggled multiple jobs until about 12 years ago. In addition to my "real" job, I worked overnights at a psych hospital, then I worked as a stadium beer vendor. Concurrently, I umpired or officiated little league and rec league baseball, softball a…

That's why we need to close our borders! Too many illegals taking all the good volunteer positions from Americans who need them! . . . . . (j/k, of course)

That is the ridge crossing Mount Ida in Rocky Mountain National Park. This was the first time I've gone up and not found a herd of bighorn. And thanks for having the courage to scan the QR code!

But where do you find the internet?

We're also a non-profit in Missouri, and I don't see any issues with what you're contemplating.
