  • Our company policy reads: two consecutive 'no call/no shows' is an automatic dismissal. The only way out of it is if you are in a coma somewhere with no other human contact to make a call for you. And even then, we want to know who the caller is. …

  • Thanks for responding, Pork! If I understand you correctly, I need a doctor to say my e/e can no longer perform the mechanic duties of his job. Then, if he can't perform his duties, he could be let go. But......letting him go, could possibly set …

  • Let me add to this story......this girl is a single mom, and in terrible financial straits. Her supervisor is leaning heavily on the moral issue here. This company has to decide if it's going to run the place on moral issues or with productivity i…

  • What I think happened is the police were waiting outside Copper's office and hauled him/her off to prison already, and then they picked up Hatchetman for obstructing justice. Well.....it's as good an ending as any!!

  • Don, like Blanche, I don't often 'say' much, but I spend alot of time 'gleaning' knowledge from you and the rest of the 'pros'on this forum. I feel that you are all far superior to me in your experience and knowledge. But one thing I DO know and re…

  • I hate to be 'anal' about this situation, but, really......what kind of psyche has a need to do this kind of thing? Can his parents be blamed? Is it something like the mark of 'Zorro'??

  • Thanks, Don, for your 3-10-03 post. That's the FIRST time I really understood how to count FMLA. I use the rolling forward method also, but was still somewhat confused because we have not had many FMLA events. Mine don't usually take the full 12 …

  • Upon interviewing potential new hires, I always go over the recognized Holidays, and other benefits before they even agree to join the company. To me, if they don't like what they hear, or don't like the Company's 'government', they shouldn't take …
