  • Laugh hysterically and tell them that they just got PUNK'D?
  • The most common ones have been along the lines of "you know, Jim (or Jane), we've tried to make this work for xx months now to no avail, we need someone younger, more energetic. This department is extremely dynamic and we need some young blood". …
  • Are you implying that he came by your BBQ? Do tell. Seriously pOrK, you have emnbellished your stories enough and now it's time someone calls hog sh*t on you. You've boasted that President Bush has called you into active duty to implement SAVE.…
  • Yeah, he also claims to have been "activated" into Civil Service by President Bush to lead the SAVE implementation.
  • Right, so you really believe all your illegals came forth during Clinton's amnesty? My experience has been that less than 20% came forward. Why would they? What was the incentive? Risk getting caught and never really getting anything permanent o…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-12-05 AT 02:48PM (CST)[/font][br][br]"TN HR can stick his head in the lettuce pile and continue to stand behind the "un-real belief" that the documents provided by his employees in the produce fields …
  • I would be glad to share with you "real world" on-the-ground testing of this pile of crap. To me, it is just that, another bureaucratic pile of crap. In my experience, the individuals who apply for work are doing so with valid numbers and credenti…
  • I can confirm that pOrK is at least alive. Either that or the receptionist at Prestage is high since I called and asked for him and she transferred me. I got his voicemail. Gene

  • One suggestion would be to order from a service like Take-Out Taxi (or whatever the equivalent is in your locale). This way, eveyone can order what they want and they take your credit/debit card info over the phone. This will also alleviate conges…
  • Ditto. I had an article emailed to me about six months ago but I managed to misplace it. The SHRM website should be a good place to start. 1:100 is a good rule of thumb.
  • Thank you, Kathy, for suddenly making the ills of my world go away. I needed this little piece of comic relief.
  • Thanks, Brother Bluto, and welcome to the Forum! I think you should change your name to Brother Brutal, as in brutally honest. I appreciate that quality! Gene
  • Not knowing anything about your organization and it's procedures (have never been in Gov't, local or otherwise) I would say that this is, at best, an indefensible ethical violation and at worst a criminal offense in and of itself. Gene
  • In laymen terms, show me what you do, say, show, including how you document and measure employees from the time an end-user manager says "I need a body" to the time they hit ninety days or whatever timeframe you use to measure initial "probationary"…
  • Your message is confusing. You've asked two questions. Is it legal to keep copies of SS cards? Yes, it is, as long as you do it consistently for all employees. Your second question was if it is legal to require an employee to give you a copy? …
  • We do several things throughout the year. We do monthly cook-outs for each shift. Quarterly we give out a t-shirt, cooler, mug or some other gift with the company logo. We also have monthly safety drawings worth about $500 each to each shift. At …
  • I did not want her back because the project she was working on for us is over/funding went away/we simply do not have any work for her. In other words, she's yours. Unless she can prove that a discriminatory, non-business related reasons exists th…
  • A blackjack dealer with large breasts, real or otherwise, ought to be an asset to your organization. I would encourage you to allow her ample (no pun intended) opportunity to recover and come back to work.
  • "We have no security guard, and lucky me sits right in front with an all glass office so I would be one of the first to see him coming" I have a one-word suggestion for you: Kevlar. Beagle is 100% right on the weapons/military/domestic abuse deal…
  • I agree with Lorrie. The PFA's that I have seen usually have language in them prohibiting the offender from going near the abused person's place of employment. If this wack job concerns you enough, you may want to hire a private uniformed and arme…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 08-17-05 AT 10:06AM (CST)[/font][br][br]HCA, You are really struggling with this and trying to find every excuse not to terminate. It doesn't matter if he is on a steering commitee to form a state-wide…
  • I could be wrong here, but I don't think we're talking about a seminar on union avoidance. We're talking about some sort of organizing meeting at a union hall.
  • Rest assured that the NLRA spcecifically excludes him from protection. In other words, his rallying the troops, for whatever reason, is not concerted activity. You do not need someone like him on-board, trust me. His mere presence at an organizin…

  • Thanks to everyone who offered their help and assistance, both directly through the Forum and off-line communication. The DOT audit was triggered by a complaint dealing with our use of a contract carrier. It was a full compliance audit, no stone…
  • It's a long story, but apparently our carrier, broker and consultant-approved policy does not pass muster. It's been a horrible day guys! Please someone, anyone, throw an old dog a bone........Pontius Pilate will be back tomorrow to deliver the fi…
  • You may want to call your municipality's codes section. They will tell you right off the bat. They can also advise you as to perhaps being grandfathered in to older standards depending on the age and use of your building, etc, etc.

  • Try Aerotek Engineering. I have had great success with them before with all engineering disciplines. Granted, they have several other divisions, but engineering has always been their core business. Ask to speak to a senior recruiter in Engineerin…
  • I don't know how it plays into compensation, however, I can tell you that more and more employers are making it a requirement. Don't let anyone fool you, it's not an easy test. The pass rate is between 45-60%. You will often hear from those who d…
  • By travel stipend, are you referring to mileage/expenses/per diem? Our policy is that we pay for all airfare/lodging/car rentals as well as meals and incidentals such as parking fees, etc. If it involves travel by personal vehicle, then we pay mil…
