I thought everyone else found Paul odd??? #-o My mistake, joannie. I misread your comment. I'll get back in my bicycle basket now.

>It just occurred to me that it is a good thing we do not all share an office. We'd never get anything done, with all the talk Did any of you "cooks" notice that while you were talking or boozing (among other things) your Pirates' Pork Chop…

If you attach it with STRING it would still be wireless. As Shakespear said, "A string by any other name is still not a wire made" or something like that.

I still think the Monster commercial is one of the best Super Bowl ads ever. And this spoof nailed HR! Some of the kids’ voices are hard to hear but I still loved it. Thanks for bringing it to our attention jitrbug.

Way to save time & ink,Pa in Can Be.

Congratulations, Larry! And very impressive doors. Wish you lived closer to Kansas, I would get a couple of your doors (have to be on the installment plan). Try to stop in at the forum once and while when you need a break. By the way, how come NONE…

Where is Larry Carr from "the Land of 10,000 Treatment Centers and the 2nd Drunkest Metro area". He should be bragging!! I haven't seen a post from him in a while and I miss his wit & wisdom.

I am sorry to hear of your faux pas. It may not be much consolation that EVERYONE has done something embarrassing and when they are work related it bothers us even more. Happens when we are rushed and trying to do too many things. Remember, no one g…

There you are Open1!! I was wondering where you went and why there weren’t any further posts from Pat Lewis. Hope you were okay and just busy or on vacation. You may note on the HR & Employment Law forum there was a topic started by WO from W…

Congratulations, Nae, she is adorable! Do I read between the lines that she may get preferential treatment due to her sex placing her in minority status among the grandchildren?? It was also interesting to read the origin of the name as I’ve never…

Welcome, Raymond! I am also new to the board after just reading off & on for a number of years. There are a lot of great people, HR knowledge, and different perspectives here to help all of us. Looking forward to your contributions. May I sugges…

It worked! As of 4:00 Friday it is 74 degrees. Almost chilly. I was off work yesterday working on plumbing problems in the heat. Great timing. And another thank you, HRCalico for the editing info. You are right, it was a typo and no I didn't know h…

I was in Manchester last year in September just before your flooding. Went through the White(?) mountains and the ocean. Loved the state and the people! PS: Surprised you didn't comment on me only wearing one sock.

At 2:53 it was 105 in Topeka, KS with an index of 112. Humidity 29%. And my sock are tan.

missk, You have provided a lot of detail and very thoughtful comments. Thanks. I don’t know if this is your first posting like it shows as a total (if it is, welcome), but I hope you continue to contribute to the forum.

"I" includes the Co. and I am very protective of it, that's why I require my own release form. A release from the potential company requesting info may not meet my protection requirements. I understand your position, Marc but if YOU were hiring or…
-
I provide relevant info if EE has signed my release form. I think it is the right thing to do. Not only does it reward EEs that have earned praise, it reinforces that poor perfoming EEs have a responsibility to improve or perhaps that they may be in…
-
Welcome, Janice. I do not like to tell you to avoid your attorney’s advice because he/she should have more information then you have provided us in your post. That said, I will make some assumptions from the frustration you did post and support SMa…

Vphr, When I read the Dilbert cartoon on Sunday regarding Alice having 19 days of vacation left at the end of the year, I thought of this posting of yours from Fri. Just in case you haven’t seen it, check it out. Consider it a benefit provided by M…

To expand on Nae’s comments here is a VERY brief overview. Full time: state covers 95% of single & 45% for dependent. There are 3 levels: EEs less than $27,000, $27,000 to $47,000, more than $47,000. Then there is a choice of EE only, EE & s…

Same as Dutch.

I have to ask, Lori now that we have given you three various points of view do you feel even more unsure how to handle your original question “should we have accommodated by allowing him to help her understand and communicate her own employment issu…

But was the company only informed after the termination? To excerpt a couple sentences from Anne Williams’ MLS report, (hopefully not out of context) “But you don’t have to be a mind reader. In most cases, the employee must actually request the acco…

In reading your post, the first thing I started thinking was, if she has such learning and language disabilities, how did she make it through the interview process without that coming to light. She may have been able to do the duties with reasonable…

James, Thank you for following up with Anne & confirming our thoughts. Any of us could miss an interpretation with all we have to remember & the changes that occur. I scanned Anne’s special report on FMLA leave (so you don’t have to shamele…
-
Thank you for your comments, Marc. After reading what James said, I still thought I’d stick with requiring the certification. A couple of times the HCP’s info has been difficult enough to decipher on the standard form. I decided I would still resist…
-
I was drafting a response saying stick with the FML form but Nae beat me to it. As usual, her reply is on target. Consistency is important in most things and necessary in legal areas so personally I won’t accept a note. Tell EE most drs can complete…

That thought was running through my mind, too. Sorry that I’m also late in responding. And out of state could just be a couple miles away or near a specialized medical facility to provide specific treatment. You didn’t provide enough detail, Rita an…

“Management not backing you up” was one of the possible problems I was thinking of. As you know, supv usually try to avoid many issues they should handle and you need mgmt to support you. Could you give mgmt the “teaching them (supv) to fish” speech…

Since noone is responding I’ll give my two cents. First, why are you asking the ee instead of their supervisor who should be taking a more active role? Second, if you have been communicating to that ee what you need and why, maybe you need to start …
