  • Was it her bra? Am sure Dianna is still waiting on the second state. .so far I am the only winner and getting ready to pack for the TROPICAL island
  • Was one Missouri?
  • Dianna-that would be the Mudhens! and wouldn't I die for a Tony Packo's hot dog! Do I win a trip to the island? Guess that wouldn't be fair. .20 years in Toledo and you know all the trivia!
  • Myth: "You are required by Federal Law to give me breaks and a lunch hour" Fact: I don't think so
  • Check your state laws. . we are required to keep non hired applications one year after the position is filled. . we usually keep them two or three or until the file cabinets are filled and there is a massive shred coming up.
  • Well our storm season is almost over, but a storm is a storm. .We are a muncipality, expected by our citizens to remain open. . we had, 'til this year, sort of gone on a storm by storm basis which SURPRIZE resulted in all kind of havoc. This year a…
  • Good point, I wasn't thinking of public areas .. . although here at City Hall it is the public who is most likely to write on the walls. .
  • Well ya gotta have a lot of erasers too, but beats magic markers all over the walls. .
  • I've seen in some places chalk boards. .
  • In the case of the earn it and burn it's and patterns of abuse, we have informed ee's that if they call off sick with no sick time, they will be required to present a dr.'s note.
  • Ours is long and cumbersome, but the language you are looking for? "employees who leave the employ of the City within two (2) years of reimbursement shall refund the City the amount of such reimbursement. The reimbursement may be deducted from the…
  • We pay 15.00 a month for the company cell phone which allows us "reasonable" personal use. We have had some abusers and they warned, and then made to reimburse for what exceed the generous plan.
  • Thanks, Rita. . huge help.
  • Both? We have never done a lay off in the 9 years I have been here and I can't remember prior. (hell getting old) What we want to do is advise him his position is eliminated as of 10-1, but he is "done" as of Friday. We will pay health thru 9-30 a…
  • Agree with both of the above. If you go forward, I would include some attempt at the positive.. ."what is the best thing about working here" May also give you some valuable feedback.
  • I am wondering, too, how you can fulfill something that it isn't expressed. sounds like mind reading to me. You might be able to get something measurable out of individualized services and the environment . .
  • The only experience that I have had with this. . .was a management team effort. We started with what we valued and that drove the development of the mission statement. I would get some input from other employees/co-workers.
  • I'm not sure I would define them. . even with the "not limited to", the first one you forget to list will be the next one someone commits. Just my thoughts. . am sure others will offer theirs.
  • Welcome to the Forum Kitty. This might get more response in another area. Since none of the experts have jumped in I will and hopefully, others will join. I am a bit surprised the union would allow for disciplinary action if your system is loosy …
  • I agree. . don't think it is a big deal. FYI, here it is Director, Public Affairs. Ditto the welcome.
  • At 39 bucks I think it is a steal. .they will learn something whether they pass or not. I would not charge. But that's me
  • At my previous place of employment, it was right in our job description that we were respondsible to abide by Our Professional Code of Ethics. I am with Marc. .retrain and enforce your Code of Ethics. .they should not be guidelines and ignored, tha…
  • Yep, I would and I would probably have an attorney write it or at least review it.
  • I always gave it prior.
