You know, this has turned into a very interesting thread. I have learned some, been irritated some, agreed some, disagreed some, and even eaten some ice cream while reading this. I'm exhausted! xI-)
-
Hey - I like that: "do as Cinderella says". Yep, I could get used to that. x;)

No, you are not opening a can of worms if you are just doing your job. No, you should not try to convince the CEO to be more flexible. He has a right to set rules and standards for employees. The rules of which you speak are not unreasonable. I…

He sounds like a schmuck. I would be tempted to smack him around. However, he's the boss so if you want to keep your job then forget about it. It's not THAT big of a deal...not like he grabbed a secretary's behind or something. Sounds like he …

Who do you report to?

My experience has been the same as Don D's (minus about 20 years though) x;) I'm a smoker and I have no trouble getting myself to the smoking area, smoking, and returning to work within 15 minutes. I would not expect different rules to be created…

My only fraternization rule is I get first dibs on the new guys. x:D Sorry - tension breaker - had to be done.
-
Hmmm. Controller and owner have interesting tactics. Nice of them to let you in on it. Makes me wonder if they were hoping you wouldn't hear about it.
-
Eh. I'm with you Crout. Sounds like a lot of WORK. I don't like doing anything that causes more work for me! x;) Seriously, I've heard of places doing it but what a pain in the patella it must be. Unless your employee population is so out of han…

Porky Pie: Thanks for the update and take good care of those soldiers for us. xhugs Silly Beag: Remember, here in the Northwest the Snowy Plover and Spotted Owl are "the other white meat". x;)

Washington would be an exception too. We're the flannel shirt wearers. x;)
-
But Don, I'm from Washington - I just work in Oregon. x0:) I'll have to come visit you sometime so you can learn me all 'bout the South. x;)

Don't worry Don, I know my geography. Go south of the capital and take a right when you get to hell, right? x}>

I can see the smoke pouring from Don's ears... x}>

I don't think 45 is old...but I learned you don't wear black bra's under white blouses when I was 12! I thought sheeeeesh this lady should know better!

I don't care if someone is wearing underwear or not, they have no business sitting on my desk and I am responsible for telling them so. If I were the HR manager in this situation, however, I would feel comfortable with taking the person aside and t…

Rad - that reminds me of a woman who I worked with at my last place of employment. She was fond of wearing skirts (the kind that go UP when you twirl around in them). One day, she was in the hallway and started doing jumping jacks (I kid you not -…

I recall working for a company once that had a dresscode that said employees were required to wear "proper underclothing". It always made me laugh. Who's gonna check if they wear it or if it's proper? x:-/ You mean guys can't wear Spongebob Squar…
-
I'm just gonna be blunt here...who cares if they don't want the responsibility? Business needs change and employees need to be flexible and adaptable team players. I know our job descriptions here say that they are "not inclusive of all duties" an…

duck!....incoming....

I've always used Monster and I love it. Keep in mind I mostly hire for exempt level positions in engineering, IT, administration, finance, HR, etc. I agree with the things NM Tom has posted to think about before subscribing. I would also like to …

Beagle and Paul - there are actually books out there about haunted Portland/Vancouver Metro Area as well as haunted Pacific Northwest. You can find them at Powell's or Amazon I'm sure. I remember one is called Ghost Stories from the Pacific Northw…

I hate it when people get the crap scared out of them. But it really gets ugly when people get the CARP scared out of them. That' a sight to see.
-
I'm religious and I would not be offended by this at all. I would probably go and have a great time. However, there are plenty of people who might not want to go not matter what their religious status - it might just be scarey to them or they may …

I didn't care that she faced the wall - the furniture was the "built in" kind so she didn't really have a choice. I just hated going up to her door, pausing for a few seconds (trying to be polite) and then saying, "can I ask you a quick question?" …
-
Porky Pie that reminds me of a woman I used to work with. She was in HR, like me, but kept her door closed 80% of the time. Most of the time she would put a SIGN on her door saying she was 'very busy' doing this or that and 'please do not disturb'…

Wait a second. They have CARS in Tennessee? x;) I'll be here all week. Please tip your waitress.

Aw, Marc you missed the group hug at the end of the day!
