A previous employer had some flex scheduling. They had core hours from 9-2. The ee had to request the hours/flex schedule in writing, but if you have a policy in place why would you care what reason they are requesting it for? Would you only appr…

We are a local government. We do ask civilian applicants for dispatch postions about drug use. For dispatchers there is relevence. If they can be compromised, they are likely to alert any potential suppliers that the police are on their way to ma…

You could show him the Dilbert comic strip from Oct 19. But in all seriousness, the ee may not realize the effect he has on others. (even after having been talked to.) Maybe the approach should be some training with specific examples of how to res…

Why do you have to wait for her to come back in to work before terming her? Send a letter.

You could hire some one else to give the 'pep talk'. There are all kinds of companies out there that do motivational speaking/training. Programs to turn the company around. There are a zillion Tony Robbins' out there! Who knows, maybe the whole …

To me, its like one of those worst case scenarios that actually happened ONLY ONCE so they have to tell you about it. Not that it happens a lot. It also sounds similar to the lawsuit against Wal-Mart(everybody likes to sue them!) which included ee…

My ex's wife would have affectional protection - she has had two kids but, well, I won't go there......

I agree with Beag. This is an unsafe work practice. Stupidity is coverable under worker's comp unless you can show willful negligence or willful unsafe work practice. Start the disciplinary action now so that you are docementing unsafe or willful…

Also - I wanted to reinforce what Parabeagle said about contacting the spouse's Family Readiness Program at the unit or state level. There are many many resources out there designed specifically to help military families. There are lots of support…

It also sounds like the supervisor needs to be educated on what retirement/pension benefits the military offers. The supervisor is way off the mark. Reserve/Guard don't retire with full pensions! After 20 years of service a reserve/guardsman does…

Yes, and while were in the "Warrent Officers who are divorced and like to talk about their ex's" tent the un-official agenda will be how we can help Wanda get promoted and how we can schedule training and more training to enhance her career. But no…

I too can only think of negative reasons to have those groups. What came to my mind is the "men's clubs" and the court case that females successfully challenged in court as being discriminitroy in nature just by their existence. A lot of company b…

My sister is a nurse at a hospital (in NC)and I'm pretty sure they already do what you have in mind. She doesn't have to pay any health insurance/benefits.

I'm in MD but our attorney worded it this way on our application: "Have you ever been convicted of a crime (other than minor traffic violations) which has not been expunged, annulled, pardoned, or sealed by a court? Yes _____ No ____ If yes, give …

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 07-28-04 AT 08:36AM (CST)[/font][br][br]UH - OH Pork, you're shouting at us forumites now!x'((that was supposed to be a crying emoticon) I was trying to make this post in response to Pork's # 15 post.

In the training videos that M.Lee Smith offers the attorney, John B. Phillips points out that you should indeed make a CONDITIONAL offer first. It protects the company from discrimination suits because the qualified doctor or background check disqu…

I don't know but - I think you just made the issue all cloudy again with that diatribe.

Wow, Does Don's reputation really precede him by that much? or were you being light hearted and not putting down the rest of us formites?x}> Rest assured though, I am not going to lose any sleep over it either way it was intended.

O.K. Here's my two things to think about. 1) I don't like it when people say "They or he didn't mean anything by it, it's just the way they were raised" or She didn't mean anything by it, she's just part of an older generation where it was common t…

You do know that all federal employees will be off as well. whether or not they are in the DC area. There also will not be any mail on Friday.

The Army does it! Counsels their own. Have licensed therepist at each base to counsel soldiers and family members. Kind of makes you think about the comparisons eh?

Sounds lilke an invitation to me! (to keep it alive)x:D

Don't go to gender discrimination then, I noticed that one had come back to life after I posted on this one!(rolling eyes) (I couldn't figure out the emotion shortcut!!!)

Actually, from what I've noticed in my short time here; the dreadlocks post is way longer. I wonder what is the longest thread ever?

Ethel, that is still so dumb! I've seen people who can perfectly balance their check book in their head, never bounce a check, allways make their payments on time and still not have an honest bone in their body. People with out bad credit problems…

Sorry, just can't pass it up. What is a non-suctioned meeting?x:-/

"vegitarianism is the cause" Is that a true story? I guess I'll have to pay attention now to what I had to eat that day when the green ones come back!

To me, there are way too many intangibles for each (experience or degree) that are not measurable by formula. The experience vs. dregee debate has been around a long time. It is subjective and you just have to make a decision the best that you can…

Pork, sometines I get as frustrated as you also. I do understand how Don explained it and I have used the "Viel All" feature. But, I still agree with you - some of those larger threads still have no continuity to them and it is hard to keep focuse…

No, You seem to have it. What's wrong with straightening kinky hair?
