Soap Name: Sue Koch Exotic Name (?): Taffy Koch When I write my great American novel, I plan to use a pseudonym to protect me from the accused/guilty. Look for this name on the library shelves someday - "Paige Turner".

During my last pregnancy, a fellow manager couldn't let any opportunity pass to remark about "how huge you're getting", "how many are you having? a litter?" - you get the idea. He also raised thoroughbreds (race horses) to which he constantly comp…

My first 45 I personally didn't purchase because I was too young. It was Elvis, back when 45s had two cuts on each side and the jacket was a full sleeve, not just a paper cover. My favorite cut was "Teddy Bear" and my mother colored the RCA Victor…

Sobering thoughts??? I recently heard that Moody Blues would be performing in Branson, Missouri, later this year. Yikes!!!! Wonder if they're opening for the Osmonds, Andy Williams or Boxcar Willie!

Dutch2,V-Day weekend must have been the weekend for Missouri Scout trips. My husband and son spent the weekend at an airbase in Wichita, KS. They lucked out and missed the snow/rain - got to sleep indoors.

Kansas City is anywhere between $1.55 and $1.59. The highest legitimate price I recall was a couple of years ago when the price per gallon reached $1.79. There was a time (I believe it was in the days immediately following 9/11) somebody went off …

I don't know how anyone can have ONE favorite movie. My favorites would be - Mr. Mom, Working Girl, The American President, Dirty Dancing, Fried Green Tomatoes and Splendor In The Grass with a very young Natalie Wood.

We had a new employee (not a supervisor) begin his first day on the evening shift because it would be quieter and allow for training on the switchboard. After a couple of hours, he informed his co-worker that he thought he might have left his dome …

Thank you! I have read most of these before, but they never fail to crack me up. I'm sitting at my desk laughing so hard, someone heard me and thought I was crying. And with the tears rolling down my cheeks, they thought I'd finally lost it! I n…

I used to treat telemarketers rudely at home or at work, but I too decided there must be a reason why someone would want to be a telemarketer. I wait until they take a breath and say something about not being interested at this time, thank you for …

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 06-26-02 AT 03:58PM (CST)[/font][p]I really get ticked off when department managers try to hide employee issues from me. For example, I don't find out a new employee has been hired until the last day of…

Myth: You're the Human Resources Manager. You must know everything that's going on. Fact: No, the company refused to pay my dues to the Psychic Network. My leg of the grapevine got cut long ago (and of course I try to never listen to gossip). …

If a position is determined to be exempt, it helps to think of it as paying for the quality of the work performed, not the number of hours it takes to do the work. If you want to be punitive about a couple of hours missing (for someone working an e…

In the past two days I have been researching FMLA and employees not returning to work. I just happen to have printed out section 29 CFR 825.213 as part of my research. Section (c) states "An employee who returns to work for at least 30 calendar days…

I've been reading these posts for several weeks now and have been tempted to respond but have refrained thinking I was being overly senstive because I can sympathize with the migraine folks. As a migraine sufferer, I can only tell you that my wor…

We mail W-2s once. If an ex-ee requests a copy, I'll make the copy for free but require them to pick it up (and then I don't make the copy until they are waiting in my office) or must send a stamped, self-addressed envelope. I can count on 1 hand …

I'm just wondering if the inquiring mind acquired info from personnel records (i.e., SSN, DOB, past/present address) to assist his search?

Thanks for the advice, Tammy. My husband and I were just discussing many of the same things last night. A member of our Boy Scout troop has been deployed and everyone has been trying to figure out the best things to do. The phone cards are a grea…

I am not an attorney, however, I have some might have some insight on this issue. Two years ago a creditor was calling one of our employees. The creditor was usually connected with another employee (same first name as the debtor). The creditor wo…
