  • I couldn't get in either - I also send Brad an email with the message copied into it.

  • Of course I can't read it - I told you I couldn't log on. x:7
  • James, You made me laugh for the first time today - thanks, Sunny
  • Unfortunately - yes.
  • Thanks Ray. What a great start to Friday. Verbal humor is my favorite kind - I laughed out loud about the agony of defeat.
  • This is great - I love being Zippy Chuckle Brain. Thanks.
  • I agree with you - I have 20+ years of experience in HR. When I started, I had no supervisory background. I gained that along the way, along with a greater understanding of people and how to earn their respect and trust. Of course, I started as a…
  • My new favorite popped up this week. An employee left on a Thursday morning and was gone all the rest of that week and the following week without calling. When she did call in to ask about her job she said she was in Texas and "there were no phone…
  • I thought it was my computer since we often have pc problems. Do you think they could make the type in the subject of "Your Message" any smaller? Hopefully this is just a trial?
  • Come south - we need more folks like you here. The weather's great and there's a Starbucks outlet in the super Target. I don't know about birkenstocks but there is a discount shoe store that advertises birkenmocks (no kidding!) But seriously, if …
  • I took the thing (and passed) last December without using the learning system because I couldn't afford it either. Go the the SHRM site and the certification bulletin board and get in touch with Allena K. She will send you a study outline (great ma…

  • Paul - and everyone - Thanks. I hope I did make it easier for them. I have been on both sides of this table in my life and, of course, this is far from the first time I've had to give this kind of news to people. It never gets easier, but havin…
  • Dutch: You're right - that's much worse than a no-fault layoff. I've had to do more than a few of your kind as well - not pleasant. Thanks again everyone. It helps to know I'm not alone out here.
  • Thanks everyone - I needed that. This is just more of when bad things happen to good people. Not in my control, but I can't help feeling awful. Of course, I made it as pleasant as possible and they were all really nice. A call back is possible, …
  • Me too - I claim 5'2" but its a stretch. Of course, red hair helps as does the big stick I carry. x:D
  • I missed this one because I was visiting my mother in NY last Thursday and Friday. Everyone loves to hate the Yankees - but I grew up within walking distance of Yankee stadium and they have always had my heart. I also went to opening day of Shea…
  • Great picture - wow - now I'm really afraid to post one. Not only don't I have an HR Hero t-shirt - I don't have a picture that looks even one quarter as good. Anyway - congratulations for being brave - by the way I had no trouble opening the pict…
  • Leslie - Great pictures. Now I really won't post mine as you set too high a standard to measure up to. Way to go.
  • Definitely ice cream. I yearn for it but rarely eat it as it's way too fattening.
  • We have watched all the Survivor shows and I really enjoyed last night. I thought it was just the right new twist to dump them off with just the clothes on their back. It should be fun to watch.
  • I love the Outer Banks - My life took me to Nashville then Birmingham, but my heart remains on the coast.
  • Congratulations! Enjoy this time and enjoy your wedding - if you don't stress you can have a ball. After all - it's your day and you can do it the way you want.
  • Thanks Don - I needed that. I also printed it to refer to during what is already a very trying Friday.
  • Scott: In my experience there are no good terminations. Even when someone has earned what is going to happen to them through their own behavior, it feels terrible to be the agent that ruins their life. That being said, it comes with the territory…
  • Personally I like Forumaniacs - but I guess forumites will do.
  • My husband and I both quit on August 17th - the day after his birthday. We are working really hard on it - it's difficult but you can do it. Let's celebrate in a year when we're all cigarette-free. And think of the money you're saving.
  • I have to go back a few years (more than a few), but in junior high I got the acting bug. My starring role was as the Caterpillar in a student-written and somewhat racy Alice in Wonderland take-off. I took some private acting lessons and auditioned…
  • I have employed a few Kennedy's in my career. But I have also had several brushes with fame and one with what I consider greatness. When I was young (a long time ago)I was married to a music critic. Since we lived in NYC and he was considered infl…
