I'll be 27 in a couple of months, and this month will be my 3rd year in HR. I think I've learned just as much from this forum than I have these past 3 years. But nothing compares to the first hand experiences. Unlike my name, I'm far from being a…

We don't want to hear your excuses Paul! If you only knew what you've been missing. You have a lot of catching up to do. Say, Gillian isn't with you by chance, is he?

I had no idea what the heck Huber meant either. In CA we just call it work release. I didn't know what the bubbler was either. We call it the water cooler. I'm going to have to start using "the bubbler" I like it, I'm sure I'll get some weird rea…

I want Ruben to win, but based on last night's performance I don't think he will. I like Ruben's voice and style better, but I'll admit that Clay is more versatile. The thing about Clay is that he is very "Broadway". If were going to listen to CD,…

Zanne, aren't you from Missouri? That "unknown woman singer" is Sheryl Crow who is more popular than Kid Rock. She's also from Missouri. I agree though, I don't care for the song that much either.

Beagle I'm with you. Paul Simon's Graceland is one of the best records from the Eighties. I know this may cause an uproar, but when a Beatles song comes on the radio I usually change the station. Also most songs by Whitney Houston make my skin cr…

Okay the "googly eye" is a great one. I know I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face with that presented to me. Tell the ee that the googly eye is only worse than the evil eye in Europe and it has to be used with making your fingers look like h…

This was fun! I got all of them except 5,7 and 25.

Maybe she sold it for medicinal purposes. She was applying for a Home Health Aide, after all.

A quick update on the person that I mentioned in my earlier post. Something about her reminded me. I seemed to remember interviewing her in the past, over a year ago. I checked my records the other day and sure enough I had interviewed her almos…

No, she didn't say where I was going. She probably didn't want to ruin her chances of getting hired.

Mine just happened a couple of days ago. The applicant came in to meet me on her own. She wanted to know why I had not called her for an interview. I showed her her application and pointed out that she had only filled out the name and address por…

I'm game, this sounds interesting. My name would be Michael Airedale. I think I like it, I can picture the women swooning already. Hey Don and Paul, did you ever consider your names to be "mundane"?

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe he went on a 3 hour tour and got stranded on an island. Oh no, wait, that was Gilligan.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 05-01-03 AT 06:09PM (CST)[/font][p]HS I agree with you to a point. However, if my wife needs to know information about me and my condition she should be able to access that information without the burde…

I thought the way it was going to work was that the people that wanted the information to be kept private would have to be the ones to go through the trouble of filling out the paperwork. Signing something to the affect of "I want my info to be kep…

Wow! It's like trying to break into Fort Knox with a paper clip and some chewing gum. A wrong password on purpose, that's a new one for me.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 04-23-03 AT 11:45AM (CST)[/font][p]You're not behind the times, you just have proper etiquette. I have my phone with me all the time turned on, but I set it to vibrate when needed. If I was in an inter…

scantey, I think you may have my dream job...working in HR for a company that makes video games. I am jealous

My wife and I used to go to the movies a lot. One year we saved all of our ticket stubs and the total came to around 35 movies. Now we pretty much wait until the movie comes out on DVD and then either rent it or buy it. We have a home theater room…

Thank you for putting something here, I was getting a little surly myself without my daily dose of Hr de har har. I hate going to the grocery store or even a warehouse store and dealing with people who don't have shopping cart etiquette. You kno…

Sonny, I was a sociology major and wondered what I was going to do with that, so I switched to an English major and thought I would teach. But I still ended up in HR like you. I'm also the youngest of three, and I took speech and drama in high sc…

One of the earlier seasons of Drew Carey's show had "5 o'clock world" as the theme song. I play it every now and then while I'm getting ready for work. It puts me in a good mood. I do have a small background in acting and public speaking. But so…

Don't too be hard on yourself Zanne. I'm under 30 and considered a member of "Gen X" but I can't stand the way people come dressed to apply and interview. They should teach a required class in school about proper dress attire and interviewing skil…

Welcome back, Don. I knew you couldn't hold out for too long and that you'd be checking the forum from home. It was the withdrawls wasn't it? And just to let you know my profile was enabled in spirit.

I've seen quite a few unprofessional email addresses. I get a lot of resumes from our internet postings and I've seen some with the n-word and other derogatory terms in them. I won't toss it aside solely based on the address, but usually when they…
