Thanks for the very thoughtful answers. Nae Nae, I completely agree. It's often the go-getters who get ahead but that doesn't necessarily make them good leaders. I like the idea of changing our assessments to look for those leadership skills. Dashe…

Ok, this is the second time I've posted something and no one has responded. Have I upset anyone? Am I asking silly questions? Doesn't anyone want to come out and play?

In October of last year we ran an article in HR Hero Line about a case from the Eighth Circuit that talked about exactly this issue. The analysis backs up what everyone has said in this thread. [url]http://hrhero.com/hl/articles/2009/10/23/employee…

This takes me back to a former life when I was the sole PR person for a large public school system. It never ceases to amaze me how something that should be small can blow up spectacularly and get a lot of media attention not because the actual issu…

Julie Athey wrote an article about the sexual harassment case that's been making the news this week filed by a woman who was fired by Citibank because -- she claims -- she was too sexy. What do you think? There's a link at the end of the first parag…

We do a pot luck meal at church after our Thanksgiving service and it's great. You get every kind of side dish and turkey done all kinds of different ways. The new thing I did last year was brandied, candied cranberries from a recipe I found in a So…

Funny you should ask. Tonight (Nov. 3) we are sending out an email to the HR masses asking them just this question and others about the upcoming holiday season and the 2010 holidays. The survey will run through Nov. 11 and we'll report the results i…

All of our customers. Did you not receive it? It went out at 7 p.m. last night.

Thanks for the response. He did ask for an accommodation by asking if he could be considered for work at one of our locations where the clients were more mobile. That particular home, though, has some of our most aggressive clients. What we are doi…

As of now, I do not think the employee is aware of the situation. Payroll won't be completed til Thursday, and checks are not released til next Monday. We thought about the minimum wage issue, as well as the payback scenario. Unfortunately, this is…
