I'm glad this subject came up because I would like a little feedback on a similar issue. We posted a job online, got a number of resumes electronically, and are currently interviewing the top people. I sent an email response to those we did not se…

If you do not qualify for FMLA, you could probably let them drop their insurance while they are out. However, I would not recommend it. You are probably much better off if they continue to keep their health insurance. I seem to remember that such…

What a true show of sincere appreciation! Alas, I feel sure my boss would be reluctant to put such appreciation in writing, at least, in writing the way you did.

I love that line from Commando. Another one we use is from Throw Mama from the Train: "You lied to me!" - bonk!

Got reminded of a good tv line recently: "If we all stop lying how will we ever get to the truth?"

I think it was the DOL, but I can't really say for sure. The woman wheeled herself through her office talking about this impairment and that one (for instance, one guy was very loud on the phone and whatever she named it was funny). In the end the…

Family practice physicians don't make very much when you consider the hours and the time and cost of education. That's why so many specialize. We hear a lot about the cost of insurance and the cost of health care, but the fact is that many provide…

Cool beans.

I can see I'm gonna have to give in and take a looksie. I watched alot of the first Celebrity Apprentice, but found myself disgusted by many of the remarks and the way some treated each other. I also did NOT like the final result. I haven't watch…

I remember working with an employee for 4 years who smelled of alcohol the entire time. I understood he had been there about 10 years and had always smelled that way. He always showed up for work and on time. Never any work issues. He drank on h…

Watched Undercover Boss last night. The boss got fired. Hilarious, except I think he was a bit relieved to be done with the work in spite of his embarrassment. He talked to everyone about their home lives and their dreams except one. That employ…

You mean words like jerk, bore, nerd, dork, etc? ::pb&J::

We changed to a PTO policy in 1998, and modified it about 2 years ago. The employees LOVE it, and it is easier on managers too. We found in general that employees were more likely to come in and save their time for scheduled vacations. (In this s…

You're mean.

BTW, I am VERY disappointed that no one noticed my movie reference (Mr. Mom) as discussed on another thread.

Well, he did have a bit of a stunned look on his face, but I knew almost everyone else and they are used to me. Since I made a point of introducing him to several people I think he may have decided to just let it pass.

You can probably do it then, but frankly, I would not handle it this way. You could set yourself up for all kinds of problems like having to justify the amount, etc. If you have talked to this employee with no change, then moved up to writing the …

Nae Nae, Me Me, whatever it takes.

I think you are treading on thin ice. You are essentially not paying an employee for time worked. This is similar to not wanting to pay an employee for unauthorized overtime. Instead, I would handle it as a failure to follow procedures. Employee…

Just thought of two more from the Die Hard movies. One was "Yippee Ki-yay..." (I'll leave the last part off. and the other was, "I got a bad feeling about this."
-
Yep, it was Dirty Harry. Also like the line from the same move: "Go ahead. Make my day."

You seem to want to make a drinking game about everything. :drinking smiley:

First, do you have guidelines? Does the information learned fall into the guidelines, and do you explicity forbid online classes or language classes? The key in most cases is not the method of learning, but rather the information learned (is it re…

[QUOTE=joannie;719371]Does anyone remember the old Saturday Night Live skit about Pat?[/QUOTE] Just a week or so ago I was at lunch with some co-workers and brought Pat up (our server was a dead ringer for Pat). Apparently neither one ever watched…

Joannie sent me a boatload of info on it. After reading it I came to the same conclusion you did. It is 15 months from September 1st. Just wanted to make sure before I send out some information to the participant. Thank you for your help. And t…

My favorite line from Raising Arizona is "We got a child now. Everything's changed." My youngest could really do it well when she was younger. My hubby loves to break the tension when he is annoyed at me by saying, "Lucy, you got some 'splainin t…

We use a lot of those mentioned too. Another one I thought of comes from the 1947 movie, "Miracle on 34th Street." There's a scene where a tipsy wife makes a phone call and says, "HelllOOOOOO!" Several of my family members say it when they get on…

Ahh Frank. The reason you don't get it is very obvious, especially in your pantless state. Did I just say that? :-O
-
What a great line! Now, who can I use it on who will actually get it?

We have PTO, which helps us avoid any of these types of issues. When our leave was separate, employees were required to use all leave available before going into a leave without pay situation. When all is said and done, it really depends on how yo…
