agreed on all points....I guess the jist of the original post was do we really want to see all the gore, historical or not? I am sure that the movie is very well done...but I'm not sure that I need that level of reality to understand and apprecitat…

No...but I've heard much the same from others that have pre-screened...and truthfully, I've seen enough blood in the promos!!!! The kids' biological mother is taking them this weekend. I have concerns...although they are 16 and 15...I'm just not su…

The CEO advised that he plans to change the entire makeup of the business--reinventing the workforce completely.

My best friend from college got married at a country club...it was a very quiet and dignified sort of thing....just as the minister began his blessing, i used the last picture in the roll of film and it began to rewind. Generally, it's not so bad,…

so....back to the original point...sort of... aluminium boy (and steel boy too) have been pretty quiet...... :-?

You are not alone!!!! We were also not permitted to have guns of any kind. I have carried this through with my Step-kids.... We never watched Disney movies either...although I'm not sure why. After I was older, I realized that they are littered w…

My in-laws do the coolest thing...it's a hold over from the days when they were first married and had NO $$$$... they wrap up either silly dollar store type things or practical dollar store type things in the comics section and write a "reason" on …

I'm glad to see that things are getting closer to "normal" I was becoming concerned!!! It is a wonderful thing to have a place to blow off some steam, seek great advice, and hear from alternate points of view.

I came into a family that already had 2 pre-teens (now full blown teen-agers). Regrettably, they had no traditions and were not open to any of mine!! Usually it happens that I decide it's time to put up the tree. Since we're usually out of town for…

The Bathroom doodling thread has my vote also....caught between being entertaining and gross....it reminds us that our profession is sometimes reduced to just that!!!!! : )
-
We carbed out and I haven't gotten on the scale--but I'm sure that I did gain some! We'll get back on the wagon for the next few weeks and then enjoy Xmas and New Year's...then back on the wagon! I just can't resist eating the stuff that so many pe…

I'm also LCing....I've lost 23 pounds and within sight of my goal....(we took about 2 weeks off and just got back on Monday) Hubby has lost 55 pounds and is 1/2way to his goal. : )
-
I'm having a hard time seeing myself as "older" just because I'm over 30!!!!! But I do have to agree that we are more confident and I wouldn't do the "kid" thing again for anything....OK...maybe to have not had the 80's be my defining fashion state…

If you're following the Atkins plan, you're permitted up to 20 carbs per day for the first 2 weeks. This amounts to about 3 cups of veggies through the day. After the initial 2 weeks you can increase to about 30-35 depending on how your body process…
-
The first few days are the hardest...but once you get past them, you won't even miss the rice/breads/cereals. Make sure that you're taking the required supplements, because you are going to miss a lot of the fortified vitamins in processed flour p…
-
You can't wear a sweater???? not even over your dress shirt??? Dress codes are much more lax for women....but I will say that showing up for work looking well dressed is easier for a guy. Dress pants, and dress shirt...never go out of style....you…

Define the things that are better than last year, attendance, production, workplace safety, employee retention...whatever....and then issue a challenge to the employees to top it for next year. The goal is to let the employees know that management …

although I'm a complete chocoholic..carrot cake is my favorite!!!

You could also try SkillPath.com We've used this company for it's seminars, training materials, and for in-house training. The trainers are bubbly and enthusiastic and make the time go quickly. We've always been pleased with the results.

I keep a resignation letter ready at all times! Sometimes I find that it helps to just put it in writing...and then I'm ready to get back to work. Must be careful with the letter though....don't hit "print" by accident!!! I believed that most compa…
-
I can sympathize...my hubby is currently turned onto "Huckleberry" I can't fathom WHY this seems to be a good idea for him. Maybe there could be a compromise. If it's the sound he likes maybe "Owen" or "Adian" Since you found a girl's name could yo…

Agreed...we need more qualified candidates !!!! But...you knew that was coming-right? The current climate is so hard....I would never want to run for office...every essay i wrote as a college freshman would come back to haunt me!!! We seem to l…

I was thinking about this as I visited my grandmother in the nursing home. The residents are thrilled when some guy in a polyester suit and loud tie comes to sing show tunes, they work puzzels and crosswords all day long. There is a big screen TV, b…

This is from one of our depts. We used to have an Agency-wide program...but we found that it was better to let the individual depts handle this. The awards are sometimes small, we try to keep it under the "taxable income" amount. Receiving an award …

is the person meeting the minimum qualifications for the job? If not, there may be no positives to point out...and hopefully progressive discipline with take care of the matter.

We weren't crazy about it either, BUT we didn't want to send a message to the 2nd and 3rd shift staff that they weren't as important! The 2nd and 3rd shift guards volunteered when they heard about the program and since they tend to be long-term ee's…
-
Thanks Don. The contractor for the Security Staff wants to amend the Agreement to reflect these new duties, even though there will be no additional compensation at this time. I guess he's covering his butt in the event a guard is sued by an employee…

We used to have both a summer picnic (that was really nice) for families and a holiday event just for employees and a guest. We did away with this about 3 years ago due to the high cost and relatively low turnout.... Instead, because we are located…

we have a workplace violence policy...and have terminated several "unstable" ee's under it...if you'd like a copy, I can send it to you... [email]dhollan1@pheaa.org[/email] you may want to move this to the general employment question area and out …

I have a draft policy that we are working on implementing if you'd like a copy, send me an email [email]dhollan1@pheaa.org[/email]
