The article (witten by a woman) seemed a little breathless to me. There is a section where the article lists "female leadership strengths" and includes "Women identify problems more quickly and more accurately." Really? That jumped out at me. I …

I dont think they were aware of the videos. Someone who had watched the videos used landmarks visible in the videos to identify what Domino's franchise it was and then contacted the VP of Communications. Sadly, these kinds of incidents are becomin…

At the last job fair a group of high schoolers were talking to me about summer jobs. Here in a resort area, housekeepers start at $10 - 11 per hour. Maybe I am old fashioned but thats not bad money for a part-time unskilled job. I tried to convin…

That is interesting. Was the military well represented?

That is what I have heard in the news as well. I guess I will find out this afternoon.

I have never been fired (yet) but I know its a traumatic emotional experience. For some people, its difficult to even drive past their former employer, much less come onto the premises. Going to them just seems to make more sense to me but maybe t…

You could take someone with you. I think the point of going to them is to remove obstacles to helping them return the property so everyone can move on. Asking a termed employee to come back to your premises and return property sounds more troublin…

Good suggestions. Honestly, at this point I am just speculating. I need to check with our food service manager to see where these discussions are at and possibly get involved myself. Frank, I hadnt thought of contacting worker's comp. Can you el…

This thread made me think of Celebrity Apprentice. I have to admit I have thoroughly enjoyed watching that show this season. I hope no one watching the show thinks Donald Trump is a good example of being a boss however. He is entertaining but his…

I would offer to pick up everything and ask the employee what a convenient time would be for them.

Thanks Celeste! I read the white paper and it was helpful. There is another one on layoffs that was also very good. Right now we are taking a "wait and see" approach. Our income is generated by guest registrations and its very possible that we …

From conversations between the employee and his manager and from what I have observed, I would say the individuals weight (perhaps over 500 lbs) has limited his ability to walk. Given that walking is a major life function I am concluding he has ADA…

No, make that $1000 - $3000.

Although "lets not talk about it" is my in-laws family motto.

That's ok. I am pretty good at googling what I need. I found a couple articles online.

At this time we are just looking at options if our revenues don't increase. We have tucked emergency funds away each year so we can weather a decrease in decrease in income but if things dont improve then more serious action will be needed. Nae, a…

Ritaanz, in your opinion what had the most negative impact on the morale of your organization:the pay cuts or the layoffs? I am realizing what a complex issue this is. I know that sounds naive but we have never laid off anyone. There is a whole P…

I understand the mentality of a person who wants to control what employees say and put a lid on negative talk but this is the wrong way to go about it. The restriction (in my opinion) is too broad and comes too close to NLRB, weingarten, and whistl…

This is very interesting. Having never experienced a lay off I really have no idea of how it impacts an organization. I could imagine some employees feeling relieved that their jobs were saved or even being more focused on how they contribute to t…

I agree with others that your zero tolerance policy needs some consideration to give you flexibility to deal with nuanced situations such as this. Even you wrote "I dont think the GM is GUNNING for them because they are black".. Its funny how a fi…

Thanks. I suggested Prospera to them. I have heard good things about their services and they appear to offer a large selection of customizable policies and documents. My concern is that they push through a lot of policies to meet their deadline (…

No, Im here. It was getting to be a bit of a distraction. I have Facebook, Twitter, e-mail, etc... Something had to give.

I am not even sure if I believe in either party at this point.

I didn't expect to see this thing again? Just because YOU CAN doesn't mean YOU SHOULD Joannie!

I love that new moderator smell! Introduce your bad self, Sharon!
-
Funny! Believe it or not, I am back on Twitter. Ive read up on it and I think I finally "get" how it could be useful. We'll see. Im giving it six months. If its not producing real results then I will probably quit. Again.

So it begins... We hit our mark of $500 (thanks KRS) and my moustache is officially started! Pics to follow.

I just read a note from a facebook friend STRONGLY urging people not to go to Tijuana. This will be very difficult for a group of people I know who just launched a short term Bible school in Tijuana. This fall will be their first year. Their targ…

Down to the last $100... any Gold Members want to step up?

Its fascinating that some parts of the country have NO jobs and other parts of the country are shutting down businesses because there are NO workers. I wonder if this will generate some population shifts.
