How about Voodoo chil', I like that song better.

You could always just put it in her desk drawer for safe keeping and just tell her that you didn't want it to get broken or disappear in her absence.

Hi Everyone, Just to let you know what's going on. I've relocated myself back to Connecticut and the Company is keeping me on. They've upgraded a server so that I can access the company network from home. I'm scheduled to get a cell phone and fa…

Thanks for all the morale support. No matter where I end up, I'll keep up my posts on the forum. x:D

I never thought of consultanting. Maybe that would be the way to go at least it would be a way to supplement my income. Thanks everyone. I'll keep you posted as to the outcome.

Thanks everyone for your input and your support. I'll try to get everything in writing but from some reason, I just don't see that happening. LF

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-14-03 AT 12:47PM (CST)[/font][p]The original plan was to commute 4 hours per day (2 hours each way). I would have to bring a laptop on board with me so that I could get work done on the way there and…

Well I had a conversation with our CFO and it wasn't very reassuring. In fact, my radar went up as soon as he said something like "it's not like we're going to take away your job but we need to know everything you do." I'll keep you posted but it …

I was in the same situation. I had an employee working for me for 5 years when I received a letter from SSA stating that her social didn't match. When I asked her about it, she confessed that she had falsely used someone else's greencard and socia…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-05-03 AT 08:43AM (CST)[/font][p]I use little "Status" notes that I staple on to my resumes. They just include if they meet the minimum requirements of the job and if they are considered to be a quali…

The employee on call is compensated a minimum of 3 hours for their site visit. and will paid their regular hourly rate up to 40 hours. All hours worked over 40 will be paid at 1 ½ times their regular hourly rate. So if it only takes 10 minutes to …

EE#1 lives two doors down from the manufacturing facility (he can almost see it from his front door). As per the Standard Operating Procedure (which he signed off on), he was supposed to call the Chief Operating Office and the Manufacturing Manager…

We are a very close community x:-)

We are actually re-writing the policy with those minor changes. We've had the beeper pay in place for almost a year and this is the first time we're having trouble with it.

Well if you ever catch the guy who is doing the finger painting, maybe you can feed him the hog bowels. That would be motivation to stop. Don - what do you think? LF

I had envisioned something completely different! Funny where one's mind wanders when having a bad week... Anyway, if the group dynamic doesn't work, how about hiring a bathroom attendant?
-
Yuk! After 3 days no one would be using the bathroom. If you unleased the cleaning people on the responsible party it would be more like a lynch mob. However, it would probably work in resolving the problem but then we would have a new issue...wo…

Years ago I was working in a manufacturing facility and this was happening in the ladies room. We actually ended up catching the person quite by accident (the cleaning lady caught her). Unfortunately we were a union shop so she wasn't fired but sh…

I think that we are VERY generous with our sick policy almost to a fault because in the last rolling 12 month period we paid out over 400 days of sick pay and we only have about 90 employees. We don't have any openings right now but I'll keep you…
-
Thanks for your response. What is the number of sick days that you allot to your employees?

The Calculation I use is: Number of employees who left x 100 divided by Average number employed. I use this formula for company and departmental turnover rates. Hope this helps. Laura

It depends on the position. Sometimes there is a position open after the employee is promoted. For example if a Manufacturing Tech 3 becomes a Compounder, the Tech 3 position becomes available. So in a sense, we consider it a promotion but in rea…

What would happen if a manger came to you and said that I want to promote say Jane Doe to a Senior Tech position up from a Tech position because of the great job that she is doing. Jane has exceeded expectations for her current position and her man…

I would welcome any policies. My e-mail address is: [email]Laura.Fernandes@collabo.com[/email] Thanks for your help!

The jackal and otter story sounds like some people I know! L

Thanks Don! I'll even pay overtime! Have a great holiday and Happy New Year.

I agree with use of paid time off. We are having a mandatory shutdown around the holidays and all employees are required to use paid vacation time (this also helps to reduce our liabilities on our balance sheet). We do, however, have a skelton cre…

My hourly employees are not allowed to "work through lunch". In NY it is mandatory that hourly employees be given a break after 6 hours. So just be careful of your state laws requiring meal breaks.

HR does have sign off, I just forgot to list myself in my state of tizzy this morning. HR reviews the paperwork and if everything is in order, we forward it on the Finance as the last approval for budgetary reasons. Unfortunately, we report to the…
