  • Paul I'll admit yours is the best so far, but I'm having trouble finding the dolphins...I guess you can't have it all. But I'm still jealous.
  • My commute is 35 miles one way. Depending on traffic I can make it anywhere between 30-45 minutes. Sometimes it takes an hour. The other day on the way to work I was stuck behind an accident and I looked out my window and saw dolphins swimming in …
  • I agree with the suggestion of pooling together to get a really nice gift, if you are going to go. But why do you feel obligated in going? Yes it's the CEO, but you do have your own life with your own priorities. I assume invites were sent out, si…
  • Come on over to Sunny Southern California. It's a clear 65-70 degrees out today. Of course you'd have to deal with the traffic (it took me over an hour to get to work today- usually it's 30 minutes), the cost of living( houses are averaging 300-40…

  • Okay Leslie, I'm going to have to object now. I'm a native SoCal guy and I do not do tofu! No Way! In fact I can't think of anyone I know that eats that stuff. And Don, you obviously haven't had REAL Mexican food, taco bell doesn't count. My gran…
  • I'm sure there's a song out there somewhere that sounds like the singer is saying "deep fried turkey" but it's really something else. Don, I haven't had the privledge of having deep fried turkey, YET, but may I suggest that you post your recipe o…
  • It's interesting to note that the song "Ina Godda Da Vida" came to be because the lead singer couldn't say "In the Garden of Eden" clearly. They were all drunk (or otherwise) and he was slurring his words. I know this one for a fact, I saw it on Be…
  • I saw the lyrics.com info also. Nope, I'm still not giving in. I'm going to go through my library at home and find the book that I found it in. I'll go to the bookstore if I have to. It's not over!
  • I know it's hard to believe it, but I'm going to find out for sure. I remember reading something that it really is "and Leslie". I'll find it, I know I'm not crazy.
  • Actually I'm 99% sure that they do sing "you and me and Leslie" in that song. I think it was one of the producers girlfriends or his wife or something. Don't ask me how I know, I'm cursed with possessing useless trivial information. I'm going to h…
  • If it's anything like my experience at the Vegas casinos last weekend I probably didn't win anything from this either.
  • I can take this one. His feature debut was in To Kill a Mockingbird as Boo Radley. I don't recall him having any lines at all. I just remember him standing up against a wall.
  • Leslie, that is impressive, although I'm a little concerned at the same time. I don't even know if the people that were in Canadian Bacon want to remember that movie. Wasn't that with the late, great John Candy?
  • It took me a second but I just realized why Don took the blue pills. It was the (personal) hint that helped. Thanks for the laugh.
  • The Godfather: "Leave the gun, take the canole." Thankfully I've never actually said that in my job, but I change it accordingly to something like: "Leave the file, take the doughnut" And when I was recruiting I always wanted to say: …
  • I think Paul in Cannon Beach should get a special prize for starting a post that lasted over a 100 replies. I think it's a milestone for the Forum.
  • Of course I could always do a Godfather marathon. But then we would have to sit through Godfather 3. What an utter disappointment. I don't think I've ever seen the whole thing. Why Coppola put his daughter in it is beyond me. I'll stick with Die…
  • Great suggestion! I think my wife and I will have a Die Hard Marathon on Valentine's day. Die Hard, Die Hard 2- Die Harder, and Die Hard 3- Die Hard with a Vengence. She'll love it. Thanks.
  • Looks like it's going to be up to us West Coasters to take it to 100. The easterners are going to start punching their time clocks soon. Anybody got any good movies to suggest for Valentine's Day? Oh, what about My Big Fat Greek Wedding? I haven't…
  • I think this might very well make it to 100. I've also noticed that Don has replied to this many times even though he was very adamant about this post having no redeeming quality at all in the beginnning(reply #2). Although I may have burst the bub…
  • isn't it interesting that a post with "no redeeming HR value" has lasted this long with a total of 82 threads so far? What's the record for the most replies/threads from one post? Of course this one has had approx 5 different topics within it. Thi…
  • Raising Arizona is one of the best movies- hilarious. It has 3 Oscar winners as they were just starting out- Nic Cage, Holly Hunter and Francis Mcdormant. The top movie for me is The Godfather. I have to watch it anytime it's on TV and at least…
  • I think it was too much Stump Slung Hog Bowels. I gotta do the interview just to find out why they put that down.

  • I believe this varies by state. I know in CA you must pay for half the shift but no less than 2 hours when it comes to reporting time pay. So if someone showed for an 8 hour shift but only worked 1 hour (or didn't work at all and sent home), we w…
  • Alternative workweeks are allowed in CA, but they have to be approved by the employees prior to implemation. An employer can propose an alternative workweek schedule but the employees must have a vote and it would have to be 2/3 majority in order t…

  • The comp time bill is HR 1119 the Family Time Flexibilty Act that is being proposed right now in Congress. There is a brief but informative article on this website in the National News portion dated 4/11/03.
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 05-07-03 AT 04:17PM (CST)[/font][p]If they are working, you gotta pay them. If they are not clocking then as NaeNae said, it is a disciplinary issue and it should be addressed as such. Or you could imp…
  • I agree, don't give the higher wage. In fact I would be reconsidering hiring this person in the first place. If the president is already giving preferential treatment in the matter of wages, what is going to happen if you have to deal with any disc…
