  • Now Now children....no fighting...If HS runs out...I've got mounds of it that I can ship!! I'm in the same boat as HS...sick and tired of snow and ice. I'm almost as sick of my kid having snow days and delayed openings. Doesn't the school know I …
  • Pennsylvania (burbs of Philly) prices are @ 1.64 here depending on what grade you get. Another big expense is home heating oil...OUCH!! Last time I bought oil it was @ 1.30, heard today that it went up to 1.50. Spring better come soon or I'll be …
  • No Parabeagle you don't have NASCAR in Portland. Fontana, California or Las Vegas would be the closest to you. Pass on Fontana and go for Vegas...super speedway...lots of excitement. If you want to impress your girlfriend...you need to learn who …
  • Parabeagle, you must attend a race to understand the attraction. You will never forget the feeling when 43 cars thunder to life (you feel it in your chest). Its something that can't be explained. Be a good boyfriend and buy two tickets to a race…
  • Okay here's my two cents worth... Animal House and The Blues Brothers are awesome movies, as well as Gone With the Wind (no my husband won't watch this one but has been known to show up at parties dressed in a toga introducing himself as "________ …
  • My resolutions are: 1. To forgive those Southerners that assume (you know what that does)Northerners aren't educated in southern life. x:o 2. To have more patience with my family, co-workers and friends. 3. To appreciate life every day no matter…
  • I was born and raised in Pennsylvania and live 45 minutes from Philadelphia. We are home to the Mummers, Betsy Ross's House, The Liberty Bell, Philly Cheesesteaks and of course those 10-3 Eagles. GOOOOO EAGLES We have Valley Forge National Park …
  • This memo brings back memories of a place I once worked, no lie it was almost like this. Thanks for the snicker.
  • Don D...Does Bubba Claus service your area? I think I'm a displaced southerner, I can relate to the entire thing! Even the north has good ol boys. Thanks for the laugh.
  • Speaking of memories, when I was in Kindergarden I made a paper gingerbread man ornament. I brought it home to my mom and she hung it on the tree and has hung it on the christmas tree ever since. It is a little worse for wear, and a little nibbled…
  • Jimi isn't dead, he's in Dallas with Elvis and Bob Marley! Great musicians never die, they go into the rockstar protection program.
  • I'm with Ritaanz...At least the good lord could have had it at a more reasonable hour!! I watched a full length movie shown on the insides of my own eyelids!! In color too!
  • Don D or Pork...both are right up there with their wit and wisdom.
  • >Here's a question for all of you...if you didn't know your age, how >old would you think you were? In response to this question, here's a story for you. When they did the census two years ago (think it was 2 yrs), the census man rang…
  • Whose is older Tom Jones or Neil Diamond?
  • Sorry, I don't know about Neil Diamond, but if you ask me how a Jimmy Buffett concert is, well I could right you a book. Its a flocking thing.
  • I would like to participate in Workplace Survivor...but I don't want to be HR....I want to be the one giving HR all the headaches (papercuts, do they qualify for WC?). The things I've seen in HR, I could be an awesome pain in the rear. Paul.....It…
  • Don, did you belong to the Animal House fraternity? If so which one were you?
  • OUCH!!! Maybe Don needs a vacation.
  • Our company requires you to pull off to a safe area and take the call or that your car be equipped with a "hands free" unit.
  • My company pays dues for professional organizations. There is no limit on the amount or based on salary, but you must show how it ties into our companies professional development program.
  • Cut them the check ASAP. Due not wait. All monies should be paid to an ee on pay day, unless they have been terminated and even then most states require you to pay them with that payroll. If there is an error correct it immediately do not wait un…
  • I can process my payroll for 80 ee's in 1/2 hour. We do ours with Paychex and most of my work is entering it into the software. I don't have anything extra to do like child support deductions or anything like that, so I fly threw it.
  • My company strives to have accurate timesheets....our yearend bonuses are tied to the accuracy of them. That is our incentive, but we do have those that slip up. In those cases we don't hold payroll for anything. If the error shorts the employee,…
  • My company has had interns and co-ops. We pay them. I on the other hand was an intern once (many moons ago) and received the big goose egg.
  • My answer is much like the rest. "Are you writing a book? If you are then leave this chapter out and call it a mystery!" Usually followed by a befuddled look and subject change.
  • In the event that the bank has a holiday on the day our payroll is to be processed, we adjust the processing so that the employees paychecks will be there on the appropriate day. We normally process payroll on Wednesdays for a Friday pay day. Chri…
  • I don't know of anyone that has planned sicknesses? If you state in your policy that PTO can be used for sick time, you need to define exactly what sick time is to your company. It sounds like you want your employees to plan when they are going to…
  • Yes Hunter my company is very generous, but we are located outside of Philadelphia and many of our employees go to colleges where a 3 credit class runs between $1,400 - $1,600 or more. We currently don't pay for books, lab fees or any extras. I wa…
  • Our PTO can be used for anything. We no longer have holidays, they are included in your total PTO. For example, a new employee gets this: 3 Weeks vacation = 15 days PTO 10 paid holidays = 10 days PTO We don't have sick days, we don't have holida…
