You have to be a subscriber to read it, Tony. Here is another link to the story. [url]http://www.news.com.au/story/0,27574,25951681-401,00.html[/url] I sort of understand about the guy who tackled the shoplifter. I don't understand about the guy…

During the last major recession I worked in California and had an opening for an entry level position. I received over 400 applications. My boss insisted that I interview everyone who came in. The waiting room was full for days. And of course, t…

Sorry Sir! I forgot, wedding anniversary and 'vow of chastity' don't really go together do they? Of course, I could say something about it depending upon who you are married to....but I'll let that opportunity slide. **==

Congratulations on your anniversary! I can't help thinking that after 24 years with you that perhaps she is just 'holy.'

Why can't you do the write up, date it, and make a note that the employee is unavailable for discussion until xxx date? It is how often these documented events occur, not how often you put pen to paper. As long as you are documenting it in a timel…

We would not expect someone to take on additional duties and/or responsibilities without an increase in pay. However, like Joannie, in some situations we only give a partial increase until they have mastered the learning curve (90 days). I can onl…

Being raised and actually growing up are two different things.

Give up on the attitude, Sharon. :ball and chain: It's a waste of time. I don't necessarily like the big hole earrings, but after seeing the tribe in Aftrica that works hard on having a lower lip that protrudes several inches, it doesn't seem li…

You guys reminded me of an experience I had when I read Alien 30 years ago. I didn't cry, but the book really had me going when the 'thing' first appeared. I was very pregnant, and the baby spent a lot of time up under my ribs. It was very painfu…

I disagree with Frank on this one. The thing that stands out to me is that the couple lives at the home. This is compensation, and makes them paid employees. That doesn't mean they must also receive a cash wage. The duties would determine if the…

[QUOTE=Paul in Cannon Beach;717369]What is "Harmonic Wealth" about? I am not familiar with either?[/QUOTE] I always have at least one self improvement book (or some book about understanding the human condition) I am reading. This falls into that …

A rest period of 20 minutes or less is just that, a rest period and as such is compensable. It is not a meal period. [url]http://www.dol.gov/dol/topic/workhours/breaks.htm[/url]

Oops. I see it doesn't actually say uninterrupted. hmmmm...

Hah! Anything by Jane Austen is an outstanding story. I am reading Harmonic Wealth (James Ray), Sense & Sensibility (Jane Austen), and hmmm...I got one of the mystery books with a letter that stands for something (like M is for Murder), but I …

Again.....EWWWWWWW lol

Thank you, Holly. This has been a really confusing issue for many and you really clarified it. Now I know why our policy was set up the way it was and will have no trouble following it in the future.

I can't believe I'm saying this since it is, afterall, chocolate we are talking about..but.... EWWWWWW.

If someone comes up with a solid way to do it, I will invest!

FYI: it's not tax deductible if it is just from her home to the worksite. Interestingly, if she comes to work first and you pay her for 25 miles, instead of 20, it will be tax deductible. You might be able to make an argument for the 20 miles if …

I don't usually look at who is following me, except to see if I should follow them back. As long as I am not following the spammers and perverts, I am happy.

His hair? Was that question out of line?

Err Paul? Did you say exactly what you meant to say? :-/

I agree with both Joannie and Paul. If they are on the clock, you might be considered liable. When we had timeclocks we always insisted that employees clock out before leaving the premises. Now they just fill out a time card (and usually at the e…

FMLA has 2 types of leave when it comes to having children. One is for the serious health condition for yourself or a family member who is having the baby, and the other has to do with bonding of the baby. Sometimes people assume it is one, and tr…

[QUOTE=ACU Frank;717258]the fact that he was leaning over to put stolen scratch-off tickets in his lunchbag. We were able to fire him and get his work comp and unemployment denied. Trifecta![/QUOTE] =D>

[QUOTE=joannie;717255] Nae, you are assuming he had a moral conscience. He knew what he was doing was wrong, but didn't care. All he had was a case of greed.[/QUOTE] Moral conscience would have to do with the harm he was causing those he was ste…

Just makes me sad. People who do these things never make out in the end. Small stealing leads to big stealing and eventually you have to bear the burden. You can argue Bernie Madoff got away with it for years, but I wonder if he thought all the m…

Some good ideas Paul. We often ask the local bed and breakfast inns, but I hadn't thought about the golf course. We will be having a golf tournament too, so that might go far. I also hadn't thought about businesses that rent equipment. I like th…
