Goodness... one should not read this section just prior to going to lunch... We also have one of "bacon greese cans." I found it at the local Ace Hardware some years back. However, we use it for left over oils. My Mom always had one of these can…

We too are the same as CAllen and Joannie. Straight time for holiday pay and then same for any hours worked on the holiday.

Back on a food track.. We are still waiting on local and ripe home grown tomatoes. Or home grown da-mate-ers as we said back home. Just two things money can’t buy; that’s true love and home grown da-mate-ers.

Congrat's to you Nae.... I too can hardly wait to be a grand dad. So far neither son has yet to be "smitten." So no serious daughter-in-law prospects in the immediate future. Guess it will happen when it is meant to happen.

We just had the most mild July on record here in central MO. Lots of days in the low to mid 80's with a few 70's thrown in and much more rain than usual. A few nights even got down to the upper 50's. Of course there is no telling what August will…

What’s wrong with a “man” using a little creative ingenuity/resourcefulness?

I agree. We watched the tour everyday and thought most of the stages were not as exciting as in the past years. However this year's tour did have its moments. I don't know what to do at lunch now as I watched the race everyday when I went home fo…

I work in an old and very conservative bank and swear words are not a problem for us. We even have it in our handbook: As our Core Values state, “Our reputation is our most valuable asset. We will preserve and enhance this asset.” “We must make c…

Thank you for your quick response. Turned out to be mute point... our new hire keep digging through packing boxes and finally found the required documents just in the knick of time. Thanks muchly.

We do not. Our vacation program is use it or loose it, with no carry over to next year.

We allow dependent care in our cafeteria plan. Up to $5,000 payroll deduction every year. The difference with dependent care and health care is the ee can't spend the dependent care funds unless they are already in their account. So, you don't ha…

Paul... you know ya can't keep a good man down. I believe the offiical word is that he wanted to bring more attention to his progam to fight against cancer. I guess if he happens to win again or at least do very well in the Tour that is just a pl…

We too had a couple of Managers who liked to monkey with the job descriptions for their departments. It is amazing how they always came back wanting a higher grade and higher salary range. I instruct all Managers that the job descriptions are to r…

Although I am very fortunate to work with some really great people now I would have to say my tenure with Wally-World was by far the most satisfying and the most fun. You gotta remember that I started there in 1972 when there were only around 50 st…

Went into college with the intention of making a career in either the Military or Law Enforcement. Started working at Wally-World part-time while in college - 21 years later I retired from Wally-World. Spent the last 5 years in the home office in …

Panty-Hose-Police: Our dress code requires socks or hosiery to be worn. With the warm, I mean HOT, weather we are not having I am the one that others come to in order to snitch on someone that is not following the dress code. I then get to go che…

Also consider if you will pay every departing ee all of the PTO that have accmulated but not used. This could be a hit! Like Nae said you must be sure to communicate this very clearly to everyone.

Received the following yesterday: On March 18, Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.) introduced the Healthy Families Act (HFA) to the House of Representatives. If passed, the law will require companies with at least 15 employees to provide up to seven days of…

Went to [url]www.dhs.gov[/url] and clicked on E-Verify. It states: "Federal contractors and subcontractors will be required to begin using the E-Verify system starting June 30, 2009."
-
I agree with Frank. However, all I can find on line is an announcement that E-Verify has been delayed for the third time to June 30, 2009. Film at 11:00...

I thought we were flexible, but not as much as the others. We allow our managers of outside faciliteis, etc. to pretty much come and go as they feel is necessary but we also require them to first let thier immediate suuperivsor know any time they a…

Amen... thanks, I needed that.

We did the same thing as Joannie... after a couple of written counseling forms, word got out that we were serious about clocking in/out for yourself only.

Tax news was not bad... had to pay the State a little (under $50) but getting enough back from the Fed to pay for the State and CPA charges. We got in the habit of using a CPA firm for taxes when we ran a beef cattle operation and have simply contin…

I am waiting until this Friday to hand out the First Quarter 401(k) Plan statements.. Even with the recent increases in the market, our total plan is still down 25-30% from its high point. I also do not get the Federal & State tax swap. If I…

Yep... I know right were Chama is located, been through there a few times; once travled all over New Mexico and Colorado back when Wally-World was just going into those states. We have since vacationed in Colorado a couple times; the kids really e…

Joannie.... where is the vista beyond the 3 wheeler?
-
Not raising my hand... After the problems on the first day, I have not had to log in again. However, please note the tremendous drop in foot traffic. I am checking in much less than normal simply because there are seldom any new posts.

[QUOTE=Paul in Cannon Beach;714965]ooohhh... new digs! Its about time!![/QUOTE] Paul: Next time you communicate wtih Ray, be sure to tell him about the "new digs" and invite him in for a look-see. Hate to admit it but I kind of miss the ole guy.

Yep... no problem after you assigned me a new password.
