  • Nae, did they have the Metro Link running when you lived in SB? Now it's really easy to get downtown! Two things are a nightmare here - traffic and HR. At least the sunny skies and 80 degree weather make it more bearable!
  • HR tracks it here - I also prefer to keep a handle on it instead of letting managers do it. We also keep track of their benefit premiums to make sure they're paying while out. Like Sonny, we do not have the employee sign off on the hours tracked.
  • Chiming in late as well...as a driver in Southern CA, I have plenty of time to text while parked on the 10 freeway. Our state put into law that we have to be hands-free while on the phone and we can't text (nevermind that our Governator's wife was …
  • I have found with dishes like this you can substitute the vegetables to whatever your family likes. Let me know if it turns out okay Ingredients 1/4 cup chicken stock or canned low-sodium broth 1/4 cup dry sherry 1/4 cup soy sauce 1 teaspoon corn…
  • Nevada, was the chicken coated with finely chopped cashews, then cooked, or was it tossed with whole cashews when served?
  • Most places I have worked have a policy just like Joannie's. 8 hours holiday pay is a given. Any hours worked is paid at straight time, making it "double time".
  • Celeste, happy to hear it came out great for you!
  • Sharon, nothing beats Cook's Illustrated! Here's their easier version: If you cannot find andouille sausage, either chorizo or linguiça can be sustituted. For a spicier jambalaya, you can add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne along with the vegetables, and/…
  • I've lived in Upland by the golf course and loved it there. I had a beautiful view of the mountains until big box homes were built and blocked my view I'm in San Dimas (I still get Bill and Ted comments) but don't get out to the IE very often.
  • I know Redlands - I'm about an hour from there. This summer, we've been to central coast for wine tasting, went to Vegas for a long weekend, camping in Pismo Beach and we're heading to Monterey this weekend. Although this state is broke (still witho…
  • I, too, am the parking police (but no badge) when I'm not a personal counselor or babysitter...
  • [QUOTE=NaeNae55;716408]Not to interrupt the fun, but if I remember right the new law they are trying to pass would work something like the one in Caifornia. There employees paid a tax for a year before the leave part became effective, and their fml…

  • Hey cnghr, I'm just outside of Los Angeles and I got gas at $2.48/gallon. Crazy I could fill my Tahoe for $42.00 when I couldn't even fill the tank before the pump would stop at $100. Have a great trip, it's nice and sunny here in So Cal!
  • Marina, I was in the middle of a Deaver novel when I saw your post. Just finished the book last weekend and would highly recommend Broken Window (fictional novel about people being set up for violent crimes based on information gathered about them …
  • Dutch, I'm with you - first time I've ever been cut off by the pump at $100. Not quite $5/gallon yet in CA but it might get there! Considering turning in my Tahoe for a Vespa.
