  • oooo....the drug testing one was good too - great choice!
  • The atheist one & the one about Don going to New Orleans...
  • I didn't gain any weight - in fact, I lost some. I love Thanksgiving and all of the fixings, but once the day's over, it's over for me - other than leftover turkey. I munched on turkey the rest of the weekend - YUM!
  • HRsage - yeah, the Wal-Mart guilt is huge! My boss had me read a bunch of articles about Wal-Mart's business practices & treatment of suppliers. All I can say is xflash 'gallon jar of Vlassic pickles' (fastcompany.com has a big article on Wal-…
  • See, that's what I thought. In my county in Washington, we pay 8.6% sales tax & the rate varies county to county. We pay higher taxes than that for 'sin' items & gas - we're getting taxed to death up here, so going to Oregon is like going …
  • Is that true? On Saturday, I took my son into the Fred Meyers in Hillsboro (I think) & as he and I were cruising through the aisles, I had to tell him to keep his voice down as he was exclaiming how wonderful OR is that there's no sales tax. I…
  • I usually don't mind seeing an employee jump around every 1-2 years - it's the month to month deal that's really strange x:-) If I am interested in an applicant with 1-2 year job switches, I really focus on the types of job the person held. If the…
  • deniseE - what is it about this situation that bothers you so much? I read your other post & now this one - and it seems as though the company has made their decision to go forward with their course of action. It also seems as though no one …
  • Uh, rad - in order for it to work, she would have to have another kid in the freezer... x:-) Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
  • In re-reading my post - by no means do I even presume to be as good as Don - just sometimes my sentiment faintly echo's his - that's all I meant to say.
  • Sorry - I couldn't resist - some have said in the past that my posts somewhat resemble Don D's - so there you go. Honestly, with this question, I really don't think there's a 'right way' - but I do enjoy the conversation. x:-)
  • Interesting point Paul - so in keeping with the logic, Catholics shouldn't ask advice from their priests on marriage, sex or raising children - seeing how they don't have any experience in those areas? x;-)
  • Hi Rad - I'm with you on this one. When I went into HR it was due to knowing a lot about benefits & having a keen interest in employment law and applying business concepts to HR. I've been doing it a long time - geez, like 9 or 10 years, and i…
  • This is great - I love it. Luckily for me, Thanksgiving is down at my sister's house in Oregon - no cooking - I just have to help clean the mess. x:-)
  • I vote for Haggard.
  • I LOVE it! I can't stop laughing - I think a hat for every season/holiday is in order!
  • Okay - I don't know anything about deep frying turkeys - sounds strange to me, but if I was offered a piece I would give it a try. I do have to pass along a commercial that I saw last night which is very appropriate to this thread. A guy was sta…
  • I love all of the them, but especially 5, 7, 11 and 18!
  • HS - I'm really excited you're back! We really have missed you & your great posts - it's pretty cool that some of your posts from awhile ago are still up front and added to (Survivor, etc.) definitely tells you that you've got a pulse on our int…
  • Excellent - then, I'll take a room at the .... Kent place x;-) Just kidding. WHEN I win, a room at the Auburn place sounds just fine x:D. In the room I would like chocolates on my pillow, a welcoming fruit basket, champagne already on ice & a…
  • I'm easy - which ever place is nicer x:-)
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 11-14-03 AT 07:15PM (CST)[/font][br][br]How about using something from your vision statement/statement of purpose/tag line? Our tag line says that we will at all times go a step beyond - so our newslett…
  • This is my favorite kind of humor - thanks for the laugh!
  • Sorry, Ray - I don't buy that one. Her face clearly looks irritated - not amused x}>
  • "Seriously, what's wrong xx( with my hair?" "How many times to I have to tell you? No, you can't just fire people without documentation." "I want a raise, or I'll tease my hair even more!" "Headbands are still fashionable!" "You called me bac…
  • Look folks - as much as I appreciate all of your opinions - I have to say I'm a little dumb founded by your remarks to other members of the forum to quit complaining/whining about the changes. I'm dumb founded because I don't particularly think t…
  • Okay folks - enough already. While you don't have to agree with us for complaining, I don't think it's right to compare our issues with the changes to employee complaints and the like. First, I'm sure Don and others like myself, don't usually make…
  • I don't think of it as whining - I think of it as "the squeaky wheel gets the oil." x;-)
  • CHANGE THE FONT - IT'S TOO LITTLE - CHANGE THE FONT!!!! Man! I know some of us are taking the heat for complaining/whining, but GIVE ME A BREAK! Change the font - it's too little - it's normal size with some posts, but then switches to teeny tiny…
  • Don't you think they could get in trouble with the red bullseye - when I first saw the new format - I thought I had accidently logged onto a Target website. I'm trying to stay cool with the changes until they're complete - like road construction th…
