I agree with Frank. I'd pay the standard amount for mileage reimbursement for any miles above their normal commute to/from work. Otherwise, you may end up with other ees wanting to get paid for their drive to/from work too. Sharon

I think more information is needed. For example, was he/she suspended because of an alleged crime committed against the company or was it a crime against a non-related third party? Can you provide a little more information? Sharon

I'm reading Cathy Lamb's books. She has three so far, all set in Oregon. The first, [I]Julia's Chocolates[/I], was a great read. The second, [I]The Last Time I Was Me[/I], was a great read. I'm now in the middle of [I]Henry's Sisters[/I] which is al…

I would pay for the hours worked on the holiday and for the holiday as well. If working on the holiday throws an ee into OT for that week, then some or all of the hours actually worked on the holiday would be at time and a half. Added to that would …

[quote=ACU Frank;717287]Probably half the stuff that goes in my shredder relates to unsolicited resumes.[/quote] I'm almost afraid to ask what the other half might be; but, what the hay! What else are you shredding, Frank? Sharon

Just goes to show that you should never underestimate the value of a good dictionary.

[quote=joannie;717278]Why would someone want to put a dry fine powdery substance on their relationship?:-/[/quote] The noun "cement" is a powdery substance. The verb "cement" is not.

The only legal guideline regarding applicants that I know of is for the internet applicant. If you don't already have one, I recommend that you establish a formal policy that specifically defines an applicant for your company, how applicants and res…

One of the things about this situation that is interesting to me is that she told her supervisor she's interviewing at another company. Most people don't do that unless they are such good friends with their supervisor they know he/she won't get mad …

[quote=ACU Frank;717256]Having come from an organization that implemented forced rankings, I have mixed feelings about it. Yes, it does hold back 'grade inflation' and ensure that managers are putting more thought into reviews. On the other hand, i…

[quote=NaeNae55;717248]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 …

Nae, Congratulations! You are truly blessed. I'm so jealous. My one and only child is 25 and in no hurry to get married, become a mom, anything -- and I have a bad case of grand ma envy. Sharon

I've used ranking as a tool to help supervisors during the annual performance appraisal process. Having them rank the employees in their group first helps them to make sure that the performance scores they issue across their group are appropriate. …

[quote=Paul in Cannon Beach;717111]Is Tennesse the "bible belt"? Do you think that has anything to do with it?[/quote] I really don't think so. I grew up in rural Tennessee with a father who uttered one swear word for every two words he spoke and …

[quote=Paul in Cannon Beach;717112]No one has responded, Sonny. What were you asking about?[/quote] If I remember correctly, the EEO-4 only applies to state, local and federal employers.

[quote=ACU Frank;717093]I saw that giant smiley and I knew Paul had taken a job as a Walmart greeter. I hope he cleans the restroom while he's there. As far as Cheney goes, all I can say is... What a Dick! :angel:[/quote] Go, Frank!! **==

I don't remember seeing any rules about past vacations not counting. I think maybe Paul is making up the rules as he goes along. I also think that any vacation that takes you away from the daily grind is a winner so hat's off to anyone who has gotte…

[quote=plynnl;716959]Oh no, the mental image of any of our male employees wearing a speedo might send me to lunch early. That is not a picture I want in my head.[/quote] A few years ago, as I drove along one of the smaller boulevards in my home tow…

[quote=ACU Frank;716994]I just assumed Jambalya was gross because you find it in New Orleans. After reading the recipe, I'm glad to know that's one assumption I won't have to change anytime soon.[/quote] Te recipe may sound gross and I will admit…

[quote=KSR6450;716948]Hmm. Went to Orlando for a high school graduation (spent time with family - which is no vacation). Went to sister's beach house in Perdido Key. Unfortunately, sister, her family and friends were there also. I got to sleep on…

[quote=Paul in Cannon Beach;716944]Well, if you stop by and see me it would clearly be the all time greatest vacation anyone has ever had so you would definitely win. As it stands, your description is too vague. Sharon is the new leader however …

Another suggestion is to deliver paychecks to supervisors for them to distribute directly to employees. Personally, I've never been comfortable with leaving employees' pay checks (or, pay stubs) in a mail sot or an untended location.

[quote=ACU Frank;716914]Nae, just reading Phelps' name sends shivers down my spine. If there is a more vile human being on the planet, I haven't heard of him.[/quote] I've never heard of Phelps. Who is he and what has he done to incur such wrath?

Exactly what is the point of golf anyway? If you want to take a walk, then take a walk.
