  • I like NaeNae55's response - brief, factual, but positive "she will be missed." Undoubtably there are some things you will miss about her work. Contributing to a negative work environment is not one of them. But you can't say that at work. Great to …
  • Successfully changed my title. I might come up with something more fun later, but this is more fun than junior member. still love pantless on this particular stream - who would wear pants to the beach? someone whose HR department required it to pre…
  • If the employee is truely non-exempt, does the job description state this? I'm unclear why he's been treated as exempt if he isn't other than this is commonly done by employers. A truly exempt employee only needs to come to work some hours in the we…
  • My suggestion is entirely dependent on the size of your workforce. At Child Care Resources, all evaluations are subject to prior review by the Executive Director - me! I am able to assure that there is consistency accross the workforce when differen…
  • 2 weeks vacation/ year for first 2 years, 3 beginning on 3rd anniversary and 4 at 5 year anniversary. 12 days sick leave per year 11 paid holidays at 7 years birthday paid leave to take within 10 days of b-day some flexibility in hours and some tel…
  • [QUOTE=Paul in Cannon Beach;722605]I think its great if this employee wants to announce his "coming out" as long as its not expected that every person he feels he must announce this too is required to congratulate him or jump up and down. Agreed, …
  • Employees talk at work all the time about what they did with their spouses over the week-end, what their kids are doing, etc. It is not inappropriate and is in fact helpful to building a cohesive team. Homosexuals often feel excluded or silenced. Th…

  • We also require full-time employees to disclose outside employment or contracting. We are a non-profit funded in part by government, and that contract precludes anyone employed with us working in a child care facility. Also, we do not allow employee…
  • how do people get these member categories like shocking pink and pantsless? The latter particularly appropriate for this thread. so much more fun than junior. I want a new title please.
  • sunburn workers comp claim. We would definately need a specific dress code for this position because ours would not be appropriate at all.
  • Certainly the boss behaved badly. I've fallen down a flight of stairs and thought I might kill myself too. Very painful. This is a modern world though, perhaps Johnson could have used his cell phone to contact the office or asked if anyone else had …
  • if it is a child care facility, it may be a small business with no HR department, just the director, who may also care for children sometimes.
  • If in an at-will employment state there would be zero legal concern. I'm in MT, which is not an at-will employment state, in fact has some of the strongest wrongful discharge statutes in the nation. I also work in the early childhood industry. If th…
  • By definintion, exempt employees are to work enough to complete their job duties l- sometimes more than 40 sometimes less. As a non-profit director, encouraging them to take time away that is not their vacation following a big push is not always suc…
