  • Please forgive me, as I'm, about to come across as flippant and arrogant. Why in the world would you give him the option of taking an hourly position. Now, the loaded gun you were playing with before just got cocked. Take the liver issues and che…
  • It boils down to how much risk you're willing to assume and if the costs of such policy justify the comfort level it will bring. Understand that these policies do not prevent lawsuits, nor do they make them go away. Some would even argue that they…
  • Perhaps I misunderstood the original post. Wasn't this reference given by a peer and not a supervisor? Why in the world would you draft a policy prohibiting rank and file ee's from giving personal references (assuming someone out there is stupid…
  • Any prospective employer, including a temp agency, should be able to discern between a bonafide reference and a personal one given by a peer. If they chose to give it undue weight or consideration it is their problem. Personal references mean abso…
  • Very cute
  • You may also want to hand your boss a jar of vaseline and ask him/her what the company's position (no pun intended) will be in a quid pro quo title XVII case involving this clown and one of the "subordinate" Techs. Can you say "negligent hiring"?
  • To Whatever's point, Cigna just recently replaced the SSN with an ID # and also removed the SSN from all billing. AFLAC removed the SSN from bills as well at our request. Gene
  • I agree with the other posters. I, too, have a personal file drawer which my assistant, the President and the CFO (the only ones who know of its existence) jokingly refer to as the "X Files". There is nothing illegal about it. It includes details…

  • This all depends on their base earnings during the preceding qualifying quarters. If they were employed full-time in a similar earnng capacity prior to you then the "hit" to your account will be slight. Under TN's system my charge would be miniscu…
  • I am sadenned to hear the news. My thoughts are with you. We recently had a similar scenario. While it din't affect as much of our workforce as yours, it was still traumatic for many. One of our Maintenance Technicians at our Georgia plant wen…
  • Not quite. I made a snide remark about Ned faking orgasms. There, if you must know

  • I heard that a certain forum member has had a lot of success with something similar to what Larry is reading. The title is "How to Make Love Like Ned Beatty".

  • Uh oh, sorry for the double post, I have no idea what happened. But, while I'm at it, I would like to remind everyone of the many pitfalls of the SA..........Ha! Gotcha Don! Seriously, though, sorry for the double post. I actually wanted to recc…

  • We used it with a short-lived amount of success. Initially, there was a lot of hype, themed decorations in offices/work areas but the momentum seemed to dissipate rather quickly. Approximately 90 days into it it just lost steam. In retrospect, we sh…

  • pOrK, your post above makes no sense to me. You contradict yourself. Besides, maybe you can explain to us what the SAVE program has to do with the topic at hand.
  • I would like to point out that the the new I-9 form is in no way "linked" to any data banks or programs. It is a stand-alone process. Any implication otherwise is simply misinformation. Gene
  • Very well put. The only thing I would add is that certain protective foot wear needs to meet published standards. As an example, if you decide on steel toes shoes, they must meet OSHA and ANSI standards.

  • There is absolutely no humiliation or name calling in my post. Offensive and distasteful, perhaps. That's your problem. I personally find your post offensive and distasteful since it does nothing but attempt to change subjects. However, that's m…
  • I have been rather silent and benign on this topic until now. This is where I draw the line. What a cowardly and unprofessional way to handle a situation, both on the part of the anonymous forumite and on yours for sharing it under the context by …
  • Sorry to hear about your situation DJ. I know it may not feel like it right now, but cheer-up, you'll make it through and bright days will return Gene
  • The only problem I see is the redundant, incessant banter one one topic followed by more diatribe and finger pointing whenever a dissenting opinion is expressed. Oh yeah, and the attitude that if you don't like something on the Forum that you sho…
  • This is an excellent point made by Don. Also, make absolutely certain that if you do decide to use them, that you stress proper wear. Something else I learned in my research is that a properly fitted back brace is actually fairly uncomfortable in …
  • My suggestion is to not use one. They have long been associated with enabling lower back injuries rather than preventing them. I did a lot of reserach on the matter a couple of years ago. A study by NIOSH concluded that, amongst other things, bac…
  • I'm on the side of doing it. Even though you said he is retiring, I would hate to not have anything, good or bad, to substantiate a year's worth of performance later on should I need it. Gene

  • Great info. I understand your position in '92. Unfortunately, our business climate has turned to one that is so ridden with litigation that oftentimes it makes more sense from both a business and practical standpoint to simply settle for a fracti…
  • At worst it serves as nothing more than sleep insurance and at best it will get any sort of suit dismissed later on. Not knowing your past litigation history, exposure, etc it's hard for me to say if this is a good blanket policy. I suppose that i…
