The NLRB defines protected activity very broadly. Employees who start out talking about performance evaluations can easily drift into a conversation about how their evaluation scores impact their pay increases, etc. A conversation about a discipli…

One of the toughest work days I ever had was the day I terminated three associates for clocking each other in-out. Two of them would go get the car and pull it around to the front of the building. About 30 minutes later, the "clocker" would punch f…

I've heard that the average 401k is down 40% to 50% from where they were in October of 2007. I can attest that mine is. However, mine did make a little uptick in March so maybe the worst of the recession is over and we're starting back up again. …

I'd be happy to post it. Now, I just have to remember to bring it in so I can. Sharon

I, unfortunately, sat through all of Battlefield Earth when it first came out in theaters several years ago. My daughter and I are both die hard sci-fi fans so we thought it would be a good movie based on what we saw in the preview. Wrong! But, a…

I don't know a lot about her politics and don;t agree with all of what I do know. I've never been able to get into her non-fiction work but did enjoy her fiction. Sharon

Electronic gadgets are taking over the world! My daughter would freak in a very big way if she didn't have not only a TV and a car but also a laptop, an iphone, and, her personal favorite, an ipod. I grew up on a farm and didn't even have an indo…
