  • Style... really? I knew it wasn't punctuation. Mr. Cannon Beach has a degree in English but refuses to use proper punctuation which is a source of irritation for some (myself included). :-/ Do most HR peeps find themselves in a 'babysitting' …

  • Does babysitting grown men count? I have to remind several of the officers to get their expense reports in and I pay their internal loans for them. Not sure if it is just because I am a good nag, or what, but I get those type of responsibilites quit…

  • [quote=Paul in Cannon Beach;716465]I didnt take it off. It was taken from me by the Forum Administrators when I incorrectly answered a question about whether I supported Frank's alternatively-dressed lifestyle. I took a firm stand for traditional at…

  • Let me play devil's advocate here... or do I just want to again disagree with Paul? A friend works as a project manager for a steel fabrication company. His e-mail follows him on his Blackberry. Since he spends a large portion of his day on the ma…

  • Your policy is the same as ours. One question, do you allow sick time and/or vacation time to carry over? If you do then how will you decide what carries over from year to year. I'm sure I am not being clear; lack of sleep does that to me.

  • Drat, we have to be polite? Guess that leaves Frank out... Welcome New Folks =D>

  • [quote=ACU Frank;716379]Linda - Thanks for this! I had not really thought about looking to the IRS on the topic. I have a tendency to check Wage & Hour and let it go.[/quote] I had a former employer who liked to use 'casual labor' to save mone…
    in Part-time workers not getting paid Comment by KSR6450 June 2009
  • Look up 'casual labor' on the IRS website or anywhere else and you will note that the money paid to these workers is considered wages. If it is over $50/$100 in one quarter, I'd be careful... [B]Income and unemployment taxes.[/B] You're not requir…

  • The Tennessee legislature recently passed a law which addressed texting while driving. It is illegal here.

  • [quote=Paul in Cannon Beach;716225]You know, saying "she's ba-a-a-ck" is kind of creepy. Its like saying NeedsCoffee is a seasonal illness or one of the evil spirits from the movie Poltergeist II. Am I the only one who feels that way?[/quote] It…

  • I am on there and have been for quite some time. What I noticed is that it was used primarily by people in the IT field; at least in the beginning. It is a way of 'linking' your network of contacts. You have degrees of separation and can contact peo…

    in Target is paying employees to have annual exams Comment by KSR6450 May 2009
  • Television? Really? Because... everyone has heard of the scores of people who have died due to a TV falling on them. Other than that? If being sedentary is the issue, I know very few people who read/use the computer and exercise at the same time (my…

  • Look above your name on the envelope for your next State and/or Federal Law Letter; I believe that is how I retrieved mine.

  • Agree with Nae, if his work is suffering or not being completed then it is a performance issue and can be handled that way. We have many exempt employees whose duties do not require them to be at the Bank. They abuse this and come and go as they p…

  • Is the link the same? I voted today using that link, but I want to make sure I am casting a vote that will count. (I am a Florida resident, after all).

  • Ohhhh, Tony. 8-| Swine flu...flew. Better be careful with those puns or the 'pesky pun police' might find the alert button and zap you. A friend ran in the half marathon - she is in HR also, and is a fan of Hero on FB (and would probably post her…
