Yes, maybe I can learn from such wisdom!
-
I think you did a wonderful job Nae. It sounds like a great time.
-
Hey Mr. Pantsless!! Don't you be causing trouble now!
-
Great run down Nae! You're too funny.
-
Sounds like someone with some major control issues. Wow!
-
Nae, I'm surprised that person is still alive! The body can only take so much. This employee's work performance is fine and he is making it to work. It sounds like he might have to serve some jail time so we will have to deal with that if that co…

Thanks guys. I think the GM really wants to help this employee out but you can't force someone to get help if they don't want to. Maybe I need to talk to the GM about healthy professional boundaries. You're right Frank. Being in jail is not an …

Wellllllll Willllburrrr - Mr. Ed (Ok, not a movie) Frankly my dear....I don't give a damn - Gone With the Wind (Would like to use this often, but you know, supposed to be professional and all) Too much mind - Karate Kid Do you feel lucky, punk? …

When I make a bone headed mistake - Oh...McFly!?!?! McFly? - Back to the Future I quote Forrest Gump a lot. Love that movie! Doesn't pertain to any given situation....just fun. Paul, you made me laugh when you said "I'll be your huckleberry". …

I meant FMLA.

Well Paul, what did you discover? Not an employee I hope.

I'm afraid to ask..........:-O

Our turnover has significantly decreased and yes, we seem to have less issues except for a few employees that are never happy. My question, why would a manager want to keep a high maintenance employee when there are a lot to choose from now. Seems…

I agree Nae, they should be communicating with her. How they are behaving is unprofessional and unkind. They should have been accounting for her FMLA from the start and if they neglected to document which absences were for FMLA, it is too late. I…

I'm sorry Cheryl for what your friend is going through. i can't imagine how tough that is. I have a question regarding her time off, doesn't payroll have records of all her vacation and sick time taken? Why can't HR get that information from them…
-
I agree also. It is only fair. At another place I worked the manager let an employee go without telling her why. I think that upset her more than being fired and I believe she had a right to know.
-
I also believe in being honest. If a person is termed for theft, and we have proof, so be it. If a manager just doesn't like someone, keep that to yourself. Emotions and personal feelings should never play into it. Just the facts. Frank, Cheryl…

I am in a different situation since all the stores do their own hiring and firing but I really like the suggestion of having only HR staff answer employment verifications (as it should be) and I will bring that up with the CEO. We have a new distri…
-
Come to find out, the manager said that this employee had an potential employer call for a reference and he told her that she is not re-hirable. I was told at an Oregon BOLI seminar years ago that it is fine to give out honest references, especiall…
-
Thank you for your responses. I talked to the secretary again and she said the termed employee wanted a copy of her last write-up, not everything in her file. In reading the ordinance (thanks David) it does say I have to supply it to her. I'm th…

Good one Dutch. That just shows you're a happily married man.
-
You guys crack me up!! Speaking of white legs, my Hawaiin husband calls me shark bait!
-
Now THAT's funny. I would have had a real hard time keeping a straight face. I'll bet that employee will never forget that.
-
You're kidding, right?!?!?
-
Our policy is to pay out at the current rate of pay. Otherwise, like Nae said, it would be a nightmare.
-
Funny! I have you beat by one inch. Guess we won't be a part of the 'in crowd. Stilettos? LOVE them!
-
Yes, what Joannie said. You can reduce his wages if you demote him but make sure all is documented, step by step.
-
O-h-h-h, a mental image I didn't want. Too early in the morning! Just kidding Frank.:D Now, about the suits, what woman would wear that to work and expect to be taken seriously? Besides the fact, I would send her home to change into something ap…
-
I agree, if an employee really wants to do the job right and act right, I'll help, but some people are never happy and are just plain mean. I'll put up with that only for so long. As for criers? Doesn't get to me as I know it can be a passive for…

That's good Frank, and so very true!
