  • 1024 x 768 is the second largest resolution permitted under Windows. It is not small. Now, having said that, there's a huge difference between 1024 x 768 on a 15 inch CRT (conventional) monitor versus a 20 inch LCD display. Could this perhaps be …
    in Bad eyesight Comment by TN HR May 2005
  • First, let me start off by saying that I read your profile and went to your organization's website. People that do what you guys do are angels in disguise. I commend your desire to find something you're happy in. Talk to your boss. If she's worth…
  • If you keep the specimen in your groin area or in your armpit it will hold pretty close to 98.whatever the hell it's supposed to. Besides, the temp strip on the outside of the specimen bottle is only a ballpark estimate. It never gets an actual th…
  • All of the above plus failing to report an accident/incident. Acts involving moral turpitude such as, but not limited to, peeping under the stall in the women's restroom or exposing themselves to the cleaning lady.
  • Amen brother Don! This should be an integral part of your driver safety program. I think it was Dasher who also suggested a driver improvement program and I second that motion! The big brown machine (UPS) used to have a zero-tolerance policy for …
  • You've got a tiger by the tail. Given the type and severity of the surgery, I am going to speculate that the gentleman is over 40. I hope you can see where I'm going with this. While it may very well be a non-discriminatory business decision, o…
    in ADA employee Comment by TN HR April 2005
  • As a former dipper who swallowed the juice and did not spit I would be grossed out by some pig in the lunchroom spitting dip or chew juice in front of me. Your tobacco policy should address cigarettes, chew, cigars, blunts, and corn cob pipes (you …
  • Yes you may. You are under no obligation to curtail your business needs around the demands of her second job. Like Don said, she may be better off this way. Gene
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 04-26-05 AT 09:27AM (CST)[/font][br][br]Two words: BULL ****. SSA only issues these cards to individuals who have TEMPORARY permission to work in the U.S. My gut feeling is that this person's permit …
  • That won't buy you much because you can make the same argument for just about any concession. Try business ncecessity or just plain cost.
  • I'm afraid you're still missing the point here my good friend Puerco. Your letter 12 weeks out is absolutely useless as far as COBRA is concerned. Hummm "The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers, now sing "you gotta know when to hold them, know when to fold t…
    in COBRA NOTICE Comment by TN HR April 2005
  • Pork, You stated: "...it was the 3rd party administrator's responsibility to satisfy the federal COBRA requirement." WRONG! It is never their responsibility. You might delegate the authority to them to issue the notifications, but you never dele…
    in COBRA NOTICE Comment by TN HR April 2005
  • There's two ways to tackle this one. An F1 (true student visa) will allow off-campus employment under certain conditions commonly referred to as "practical training". Not a very difficult process at all considering this is an internship. In terms…
  • I've looked into them and my wife is in this industry so I know a little bit about them. They're up there with hair follicle testing. Not 100% accepted yet. The problem with what you're trying to do is not necessarily with the method. The issue …
  • Anyone determined enough to gargle with bleach is a loaded gun waiting to go off. Give him his last rites and remove his feeding tube immediately before someone gets killed.
  • I'll take it one step further. You should be terminated for exercising poor and negligent judgement in giving this employee an option to resign. Gene
  • HR Hat, Welcome to the forum. I'll do my best to help answer some of your questions. 1-Wait a bit, you'll get a slew of responses. I personally don't now, but have in previous lives. 2-With very few exceptions they are always done post offer. …
  • I have some very mixed feelings about the direction this thread has taken. I used to feel very close to the way HRCalico does. Then, in 1993 while on Active Duty in the Army, I was sent to a place called Somalia. There were people starving to dea…
  • El Don is 100% right. All juvenile relations (or whatever court has child support jurisdiction in your locality) is tied into this system, called the MISSILE (don't ask me what the acronym stands for). When a court enters a support order against y…
  • Yes, it's small though. I think under $.50. I currently pay Experian $1.00 to do my SSN Traces.
  • EL PUERCO PARA PRESIDENTE! VIVA EL PUERCO! I can hear them now Pork, throughout the meat plants, produce plants, and lettuce fields. I see a grass roots movement starting now that we've seen the kinder, gentler side of you.
  • Pork, Now that you have done such a good job, and I mean this sincerely, of explaining yourself, I believe an apology and ammends are in order for my harsh words to you and for ASSuming that you were being a hypocrite. I hope you can forgive me. …
  • Pork, My words are not unfavorable. I simply speak the facts. You work overtime at discrediting the NOMADS, as you like to call them, make sidebar remarks as to somehow regard them as parasites, discriminately lump anyone with a SSN mismatch as "…
  • Well, Pork, you had me as a captive reader up until the point where you started to interject your usual political and opinionated diatribe. Quit trying to fool yourself or anyone else. Your industry, just like mine depends on the undocumented labo…
  • VS, Welcome to the Forum! You're right. They don't and shouldn't care. It is not their responsibility to enforce immigration laws. Yes, the ee's you termed will probably go buy another SSN (well, now they buy identities because the old bogus S…
  • This is the INS Pilot started in CA about 8 years ago. It's actually called S.A.V.E. I am not sure what the acronyms stand for. In a nutshell, it allows you verify the employment eligibility of aliens. Contrary to popular belief, it does not cha…
  • This decision seems reasonable enough. In the middle of all the tree-hugging and kumbaya singing with the customer don't forget to address your employees and explain to them your course of action. They, of course, should be your priority and they …
  • Bingo! Marc and Crout nailed it. Pay for performance, not for how well they can pad the billable hours. If you do the latter you are doing your customers and employees both a major disservice.

  • Sorry guys. I just caught-up on the thread from home. I had "one of those days" and admit that I was being a party pooper when I posted. Too bad pOrK doesn't get this excited about posts which focus on factual IRCA and FLSA subjects. Good inform…
