Well, there you go, at least you have a system! The system I use is by checking out the Circuit Court website to see if they are on their way to jail and also the Sex Offenders website. If nothing jumps out at me, BINGO!

Oh I'm accustomed to the humor alright, Dandy Don broke me in by making fun of my Wisconsin lingo. Actually, I used to work for one of this company's customers, so they knew that I was structured, straight-laced and consistent. The owner wanted me…

How cool . . . my answers! 1. Ringo, John, Paul . . . ? 2. Oh My! 3. It's Howdy Doody Time! 4. Melt in your mouth, but not in your hands. 5. Milk? 6. No clue 7. No clue 8. Huh? 9. Why? Because we love you! 10. ? 11. ? 12. Who wrote the…

Oh, that's pathetic. I'm not a teenager after all . . . I'm 35! I should have watched more tv as a child.

I'm a few years before 40, but couldn't resist checking this out because of the interesting Subject! It was like reading German until somebody mentioned Meatloaf! If you're back from the parking lot, consider this: bring that CD into the office a…

My soap opera name would be Ann 10th Street. Not quite as glamorous as the rest of you. th-down

I'm going to go one step further and say that if you have something documented, doesn't that limit you in more ways down the line? We make the hiring decision on a case-by-case basis also.

"Since minorities tend to have higher conviction rates, such a policy COULD be interpreted as discriminatory." I completely don't agree with this. If you have a policy in place against convictions, it's not the fault of HR who falls into this cate…

Hunter1, that would be great! My fax number is 920-898-1770. Thanks!

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 08-28-03 AT 01:16PM (CST)[/font][p]That's the trouble at our company too, also in Wisconsin, which is the reason I've made my first post to this Worker's Comp forum! (See, "Challenging a Claim") We hav…

Actually, we have another guy on light duty as of today, and he's running through the duties faster than . . . well, no need for analogies. We are paying him minimum wage, rather than his normal wage, the difference to be made up by Worker's Comp. …

Thanks for the feedback. We’re very close to having his physical and drug screen done to bring him back, because we feel that we’re out of options. I may have to give it a second thought yet!

We're in the middle of this situation right now, and have contacted our legal counsel. Nothing looks good in our favor. Our ee was injured in his 20th day of work, the same day he would have been terminated because of poor work performance and bad…

I'm sorry for the late post on this subject, dredging up an old subject . . . BUT . . . . . . we are "in the pool", which means only the state will insure us at a huge premium because of our frequent injuries. We have stupid injuries which we'd li…

In our facility, we have about five women that share the bathroom and there is one large community sink. It's obvious even around 11:30 a.m. after breaks and everything that not a soul has washed her hands. Once I leave that bathroom, I return to …

We have the "at our discretion" phrase in EVERYTHING and I believe it helps us in some cases, but ultimately it appears as favoritism and ends up hurting us in the long run. The supervisors and management use the "discretion" comment as an excuse t…

Just updating the forum on my GOOD employee that was always tardy, I just walked him to the door for his last time. In some cases we're sad to see him go because he worked hard when he was here, BUT I was fed up with his excessive tardiness and I w…

We have this SAME employee here . . . he was tardy again this morning as a matter of fact. AND we have an attendance policy that says he should be fired by now. Management and the supervisors say he's an excellent employee WHEN he's here, so it wo…

I don't think you can specify somebody in a random test, can you? Aren't you supposed to be pulling names "randomly"? We had a similar call a couple weeks ago. An anonymous call about a "high" employee, although we have not seen any problems with…

What were the reasons given for the change? I wouldn't decide my job future on that, unless you're getting vibes from management that you haven't described in your post. Everybody wants to cry sometimes over the frustrations of the job, but you kn…

WOCO, was that sincere? I don't think so. I think you're just trying to keep this Post alive! :-)

If you guys were my children, you'd all be in your own rooms by now. x:D

Although I didn't previously respond to this post, I'm just catching it now, I agreed that the author needed to move on quickly and find the right job. Today is Monday, a fresh start, let us know what happened!
-
We've done something similar in the past and we wouldn't do it again. The one point I would like to make is: once your other employees realize what has happened to these three employees, you can bet they won't offer their help to others as much be…

Thanks for clarifying that . . . I may be crossing the two, OSHA and law. I knew FMLA was one of the new concerns we would have . . . are there many others? I'm actually embarassed to be asking this . . . I wish I was more comfortable with the law…
-
You forgot to mention the fact that I aimed for that puddle to see just how much I could splash the employee AND the fact that I waved as I was driving by, smiling. Thank you for your support. That's why I "tune in" to the forum each day.

I think the initial question was "do I give him a ride?", but the whole meaning behind it was "will I set a precedent? where do I draw the line?" We have supervisors here who leave the building to drive 15 minutes one way to pick up a guy who call…

Thank you for all of your feedback everybody! I knew I could get quick, realistic answers from this group! Melissa

I agree with Dandy Don about the look you should give her . . . it's the same look I was giving the screen when I read your post. She's targeting this person for some reason that is outside of our knowledge.
