  • It has been too long since I laughed out loud while reading a story... Thank you for sharing this story with us. Personally I needed just such a short vacation from the events of the day. Thanks, Dutch2
  • I seem to remember an "old" country song, in fact it is so old that it may have been called a country/western song, that is titled: "I've got tears in my ears, from lying on my back crying over you." You know what they sey, "If the shoe fits, you…
  • I too believe that it has happened. In fact our Security Officer ran a short article in bank's weekly news letter concerning this very matter. Also if you have employees that have access to confidential information such as bank account numbers, etc…
  • Back to the original thread.... Wasn't this also the show that had Tom "T-riffic and Manford the Wonder dog, Bunny rabbit, Mr. Moose and the grandfather clock, not be mention Mr. Green Jeans. Now being in my young 50's I must admit to many fond m…

  • Today is back to business as usual for the banking business. Hope you all have a great day after Christmas. Dutch2
  • I thought our Holiday dinner was going to be the best yet. We had approximately six inches of snow last Saturday mornign and by mid morning our Chairman and President decided to cancel the dinner. Had a heck of a time calling "everyone" as so many…
  • It becomes more meaningful every year. Thanks for the reminder. Dutch2
  • I have to agree with the majority of the previous posts. Having had supervisory experience is a BIG plus in working in this area. It is a tremendous help to have walked a few miles in their shoes to better be able to understand all sides of the op…
  • Sounds a bit like the person that couldn't get to work because the battery in the key fob had run down and therfore, they couldn't unlock their car door to allow them access to their car so they could drive to work. Granted with all these new gadg…
  • As someone stated: You don't mess with paychecks. How very true! This does take a bit of advance planning out on the calendar to ensure this does not occur. We too use an outside company to process our payroll. We have a policy that anytime our …
  • No "dress ups" at work. Being a bank we tend to frown a bit at people who show up in masks. At home tonight for the trick or treaters, the whole famiy will be in costumes and the front of the house set up appropriatley. We usually have between 80…
  • Must be alot of this going around. I got to stay late last evening to assist the President and EVP in dismissing a Vice President. Of course once the deed was done, I got to go with him to his office to collect all of his personal belongings, ensu…
  • I have been having this very discussion with our Sr. Mgmt. group for a couple of years now and I get no where. Our male employees are required to wear dress shirts and ties and as mentioned by others we have allowed the ladies to push their version…
  • Great ideas! We don't dare leave the house on Halloween night. Here in good old Fulton, MO we will average 1,000 Trick of Treaters every year, at least for the past 5 years we have. It is not all over town, just on a few select streets. We were …
  • Ya know.... They still shot horses in this part of the country.
  • As a youngster, our church First United Pentecost would not allow us to have a TV in our home. When visiting grandparents I loved watching the early black and white days of Gunsmoke with my grandfather. (Chester, Dennis Weaver, was a very young ma…
  • Amen! My bible talks to me about the joy of serving God. And the more I learn and experience about his world, the more I am convinced that God must have a great sense of humor. Hope you all have a great Monday evening, Dutch2
  • Me too!!! We consider this to be very confidential information.
  • I married a country gal that would just really rather drive a truck. So it beats me what a "chic car" would be. My wife has worn out two full size four whell drive Chevy Suburbans and is about to trade her full size Yukon XL 4X4 in on another GMC …
  • I am currently in the banking industry. A couple years back we went to a business causual dress from Memorial Day through Labor Day and professional dress the remainder of the year. This basically means that the men don't have to wear a tie during…
  • "when the employee should know the term is coming due to previous warnings" ...this is the key for me. That is why it is so important to make sure that each counseling form that is written clearly states what the consequences will be if this matte…
  • I had put off completing a Salary and Benefits Survey Questionnaire for a Bankers Association as long as I could and have spent all day working on this "thing" and am still not complete. Just had to take a few minutes away from this task to see wha…
  • Bring in a few more locally owned and operated South of the border and/or Oriental restaurants into your community and you will not be able to find a dead cat to swing.
  • >Gee, I guess I must be as old as Don also. I very much remember the >old chest style soda machines. They had a built in bottle opener on >them, because there was no such thing as a twist off cap x:o You know, one of my boys (14 …

  • Don, am I as old as you? Surely not. I too remember the old chest type coolers that you had to move the drinks around from one row to another to finally get to the brand that you wanted and then walk it to the end and pull it up through the slot. …

  • Which Boy Scout Camp is nearby? My oldest son is attending Camp Hohn this very week and we are going down for parens night this Thursday. If you are near Camp Hohn I will have to check this out. Thanks, Doug ps: I remember my great-grand-father…
