Quote: The family -- with its repetitious, socially invisible, physical tasks -- is a necessary part of life, but it allows fewer opportunities for full human flourishing than public spheres like the market or the government. This less-flourishing s…

I read about this a few weeks ago. [url]http://www.corporateconfidential.com/index.php4[/url] It's a book called "Corporate Confidential". A former Human Resources executive blows the whistle on the corporate secrets that can hold back -- or …

We had the warmest January on record. Now it's 50 today. I don't want them to bloom this early! Augusta lives for the Masters "too-nah-mint" and the azaleas are part of the show! I lived in Michigan when I was a kid. I don't miss the snow. If…

Why is it when I tell my daughter to dress warm b/c its cold outside, she puts on a tank-top? Why does corporate dump tons more work on my department, but not give me the staff to complete it? Why are my azalias blooming in February? Why do peopl…

ok, that was too darn funny!! I have tears in my eyes and my co workers think I've lost it. How true...how true!

I am in agreement with you all. The Marshall had to make a split second decision: "do I protect my life and the lives of others or do I give this guy the benfit of the doubt?" I just read another article quoting different witnesses who said the g…

that was hilarious!

so if "they" think that the impact was not from the airplane, then where did the airplane go? Obviously, people were on board and are now missing....so what happened to that plane? I think it's sad that somebody out there actually thinks the gov't …

Geno, I did not think you were being rude by posting. I, just like everyone else, just feels frustrated. Our corporate office has 8 employees who live in NO and who are now not only without a home, but possibly without a job. (They are all accoun…

I thought long and hard about responding to this. I am not trying to be rude or ugly, but what exactly is this supposed to do for me? Or anyone in NO? What about Biloxi or Dauphin Island? They didn't have barriers to protect them? Are we someho…

As others have posted, you have to wonder that if the media would report about the good things happening over there, then maybe the mood here wouldn't be so dim. I read a great column in my hometown newspaper today. It was written by Navy Lt. Came…

The media chastised everyone this morning. The only reason the price went up here was because everyone started freaking out and just HAD to fill up their tanks. Something about an email stating stations would close at midnight and capping fill-ups…

I am in Augusta, GA and we had a mass of employees leave at lunch to fill up. Panic is beginning to take hold. Reports of some of the more rural stations running out. Photos of cars and cars waiting in line. We had a conference call today with cor…

Yeah, it was pretty tacky. We've had to really crack down on them at work. I would never, ever wear flip-flops to work! Even when you count the legitimate reasons why they shouldn't have worn them, the bottom line is they don't match what the g…

oooh I grew up with all these songs! I'll add: John Cougar Mellancamp Milli Vanilli Tony Basil Olivia Newton John Def Leppard Hall & Oates Prince!

oh, ha ha. They're paid for and I'm keepin' 'em until they fall apart.

I'll weigh in on the pro-SUV side. I drive a Yukon-XL (with vcr) and my husband drives a Ford F-350, diesel dooly (sp?) with DVD. We are avid campers and needed the power to pull the camper to the likes of Hilton Head/Myrtle Beach. Also have a jet…

That's it! Thanks so much

How about "nother"? As in: that's a whole nother story... Last time I checked, that wasn't an actual word. And I'm the first to admit that I've used it a few times. Biggest pet peeve would be a tie b/t people getting on the elevator before I c…

ugghhg!! My mind can't even go there. I don't understand why people do the things they do. The toddlers who were found in the pond had wandered off earlier that day. they just walked out the front door and a neighbor brought them back. How does …

uggh! Don't get me started on the flip-flops. My biggest pet peeve. However, I refuse to be the fashion police. But to answer your question, we do allow capris, but we do not allow the long, slim fitting shorts. I forget what they are called bu…

We have had a softball team in the past. We paid for jerseys and the registration fee only. We didn't have them sign anything, but if we do it again, I will probably have them sign the waiver to put in file.

we also do this. We set up Employee "Kiosks" for those without access to a computer. They login with their employee ID# (not their SS#). They can view and print right at the kiosk if they so choose. You will always have a few who still come to yo…

We are also observing on the 4th, however, one of our smaller distribution offices will observe on Friday instead. They deliver free weekly shoppers on Wednesday and have an obligation to our advertisers get it out there on time. So they will work …

3% This year we went with 2% and almost had a revolt on our hands. Horrible for morale even though that reduced rate saved some jobs.

I had this exact same issue come up this morning. Exempt sales professional wants to work the weekends for a different department, hourly position, 10 hrs tops. Can we do this? How would we pay him for this?

oh, I like your verbage " for purposes of attending the funeral and attending to arrangements..." Think I'll start using that! We had an employee ask for his bereavement day for an aunt that passed away 2 weeks ago!! He was treating it like a vac…
