  • Yes, I agree. But for devil's advocate - what do you do personally when you are in that situation and there is no trash can? No, I don't expect the men to weigh in on this. They don't have the proper perspective!
  • O.K. Since this is still out there. I say put a small trash can or something (small bag?) to dispose of the feminine "item" INSIDE the stall if you don't want it going in the toilet. I am as clean as the next person (and yes, I can keep my house c…
  • And why is it that employers don't recognize that raising kids (especially single) require long hours? I guess they think it only takes a few minutes out of one's day to raise a kid!!!!
  • I notice that no one touched on the can of worms under moral and ethical aspect of solicitation at work. Coming from a military background it was allways drilled into us (one of the reasons against solicitation) that you can never solicit downwards…
  • I was serious. As cute as your poem is.
  • Speaking of training. Can I tag along? Our Police Chief was talking about some upcoming training and I opened my big mouth ... and now he wants me to do some of the training. Trouble is I can't find what I'm looking for. I went to a training cla…
  • I have been one of those "applicants" at a career fair. I can tell you that it was annoying to me to stop by a booth and get a standard this is our company and here is an application. If I did have technical questions, (or what the minimum qualifi…
  • >It always amazes me when ers say but >they are a key ee we can't lose them, >they are >no less a drug user than the hourly ee just >getting by. xclap O=* th-up
  • By their logic one would conclude that only Rich people are honest! and the only reason one would have bad credit is because they are dishonest.
  • It appears that your office is definately disfunctional and has some weird relationship triangles going on, and now they want to celebrate it? I say not on office time!
  • and then when she does end up getting the other position the office should hold a party to congratulate her on her promotion. (see post titled "fair on not fair".
  • HR would get immediate notice when an ee is injured. There would be no delay on ee or ee's supvr part. The accompanying medical documentation would actually be with the notice of injury.
  • And tatoos x:7
  • I agree, be direct. Then ask her if she minded if others in the meeting started picking their noses, and would she want to shake their hands at the end of the meeting! If you tell her that it gives the appearance of not being focused she'll just s…
  • In MD the ee would (I would) be reported as a new hire. It is also a status change. If one of our ee's goes from full-time to part-time or part-time to full-time, then I report it. It affects any medical benefits that might be due to any dependen…
  • I was going to reply along the same lines as Don.(honest) "entitlements she dreams up while on vacation" What if she suddenly has an FMLA qualifying event while on vacation? or 'develops' difficulties related to her pregnance?" Should have termed…
  • I was game. It is not free. After you get to a certain point within the website, there is a statement....."Filling out the form Questionaire is free. There is no time limit. At the end, you may decide whether or not you wish to purchase."
  • How old are you?
  • I have to disagree with James and Balloonman. So, your saying that stay-at-home moms are not productive? So, that's why my house is never clean? I can only do one thing at a time - take care of the kid(s). Only office people can multi-task? Esp…
  • You can give an ee the required notice and you can mandate direct deposit, but, what do you do if they don't provide their bank account and financial institution information?
  • Door prizes and 50-50s are allowed, so I am thinking a raffle would be ok also.
  • No one mentioned earned income credit. There are some people who qualify and don't have to pay taxes. If you are a single parent or HOH and have a few children the income limit is actually pretty high. Around 30,000.00. You don't have to pay tax…
  • I don't know HSA very well but I am going to respond anyway. Because I don't understand the logic. Children from divorce aren't typically covered under both parents health plans, so why would it matter who claims them on taxes, or what year they w…
  • I guess one could also check the better business bureau website to see if there were any complaints filed.
  • Hey - I take exception to that - not sure who you were directing it to? YOU have twisted this into and emotional crusade and started attacking those on the forum who disagree with you. I AM CURRENTLY in the National Guard, voted for Bush, and beli…
  • I was sick yesterday, so couldn't respond until today. I have often re-scheduled my drills. It can be done. My reasons for re-scheduling drill often involve my kids' activities that conflict with a particular drill weekend. Taking a test to get …
  • Well, if she wants the job, she'll reschedule her drill. We all have choices in life to make.
  • After reading 98% of the previous posts, I have one question. How come the applicant can't re-apply and be scheduled for the next test? Also, It is not entirely impossible for the applicant to miss one day of her weekend duty and then make that …
  • My philosophy has always been; the problematic late ee will always be late. He/she just doesn't want to be there. You could change the start time from (for example) 7:30 to 8:00 but then he/she would probably get to work at 8:05. What you're look…
