Wouldn't you like to .......

lnelson

Be paid your salary for life.

Do nothing in your current position.

Spend as much money as possible.

Go on vacation every other week and close down for 2months paid.

Travel all over the world on someone elses dime.

Meet very powerful people/groups.

If so who would you be?

mushroomHR

Probably either a congressman or senator?

Hunter1

My wife? (Or maybe my ex-wife) Oh, no, she doesn't usually meet powerful people, but, maybe she does for all I know. Well, Ray, I thought I'd try to join you once. : )

ray a

Hey Hunter, the doghouse is kinda cold this time of year.

POPEYE

If it's not Hillary Clinton then it must be:

James Sokolowski
Anne Williams
and
Tammy Binford

I see those names come up all the time and they reply to powerful people every day and I'm sure that Mr. M. Lee Smith foots the bill for everything they do and every place they go so there's your answer.

Donald Duck

HRinNH

Congressperson

Martha Stewart. Oh, I forgot. She has a longer vacation.

HRGirl

Yeah I'd like to be President of the United States but I don't see the people voting in a woman with PMS and the power to back it up! xflash

HRinNH

You have my vote. x:D

ritaanz

Sounds vaguely familiar. It comes pretty close to describing Beaglepuss in his black leather jacket.

Going from hotel to hotel, noshing on food pretending to check on quality. He is always jumping in having just come from somewhere. I call that vacation time. Since he travels so much, he certainly cannot be working.
What ya think?

Parabeagle

Ritaanz! I never knew you cared. x;-)

For the record, travel is work... I just penciled out my schedule for 2005 and I will be out of the office at least two weeks per month from January through September.

JudyT929

Got to be the pres, especially the do nothing part....

mwild31

C'mon lis, what's the answer - I've been wondering all weekend...8-}

zen

Is it the Pope?

lnelson

Sorry for the delay Open enrollment going on here...anyway some have guessed correctly with
Senators & house representatives. Granted the President does fall into the catagory as well but I neglected to include ...to have no term limits. Which would have cancelled that position out.

Now that I have answered and not to go into a political frenzy but how many of you feel that Senators & House Reps should have the same term limits as the President.

SORRY, for the long answer and follow up question.
Just curious on going discussion here at my job.

mwild31

Shoot! x:o
I thought it was Parabeagle too! :oo

Parabeagle

How does anyone come up with this misconception that I have a cushy job? Excuse me, now. Time to go hit the Starbucks machine we had installed in the lunchroom. x;-)

System

Cushy would be like sitting out in your own lobby reading HR Magazine because you don't have anything to do, like someone else we know.

ray a

Hey I heard that. I don't sit in the lobby. The couch is in my office.

ritaanz

You have a couch in your office? x:o

Is there a dead bolt on the door too?

ray a

Actually, a sofa-bed. No deadbolt. Just a "Do Not Disturb" sign.

ritaanz

Oh, noooooooooo. That's worse.

Have you any idea how uncomfortable those mattresses are?

ray a

That depends on your perspective.

Parabeagle

Okay, I don't ever want to hear Ritaanz carping on about how easy I've got it when Ray's got a couch in his office.... all I've got is a TV.

ray a

Hey Beag, do you have a DVD player too?

Parabeagle

Yeah, and a VCR - for reviewing training tapes that I plan to use in my "frivolous jaunts" around the country (as Ritaanz would put it).

ritaanz

Hey Beagpuss, Ray doesn't need a TV. Apparently he gets his entertainment in opening and closing the sofa bed. You know, getting the thing open and closed and not getting any body parts caught in it.
