  • That is too bad. Sorry to hear about layoffs. They are hard for everyone involved. 6 years ago my company closed due to being sold and it wasn't fun being on unemployment. BUT, it did open up an opportunity for me that I might not have had if not la…
  • Watch money orders and cashier's check too. My Dad sold something on Ebay and the person gave him a cashier's check. When he went to cash it at the bank, the bank told him he had to wait for 2 weeks b/c they weren't sure it was real.
  • I have actually decided that HR isn't for me. I am in the process of obtaining a Master's degree in Adult Education with an emphasis on Counseling. I want my profession to be a purely "helping" one. I realize that is what HR is also, however I seem …
  • Actually Don, HERE means--I told you where it was; how could I find it so easily and you didn't?
  • I really like this show. I forgot about it last night! I think there must be rules also b/c if you have noticed, they really do give 'some' customer service. I figure that if they were rude or discrimatory to customers, that would do it immediately.
  • I only get to watch the end of it most nights due to the time, but I am a junkie too. I admit it! It will be interesting to see how they do get back to the island b/c they said they were 15 miles out last night. Maybe it will be the 'island' that br…
  • I agree Nae Nae, it depends on the person. I guess applicants should send one b/c of the above post that said they had a supervisor that if he DIDN'T get one, he would not proceed with the applicant. Too bad b/c it confuses applicants on what they s…
  • I am not sure if they are still pushing the thank you note or not. I know that when I was a Career Counselor we did push them because we felt that if it is a case where the employer wanted that, it helped, but if the employer did not want that then …
  • ESFJ Extroverted Sensing Feeling Judging Strength of the preferences % 1 12 62 33 This didn't surprise me. ahhh... Winnie the Pooh is an ESFJ

  • Making a friend with someone is the best way to meet your future husband. I understand not wanting to ruin the friendship (negative aspect) but what if you met the best man you could ever dream of marrying??? (positive aspect) I don't like when men…

  • Don, i bawled like a baby, and I am not ashamed either. He was my best friend for a very long time and I loved him like he was my child. I wrapped mine in his favorite blanket and buried him under a tree. It is a difficult thing to do and if I have …
  • I went through this in 2000. I had Snowball for 17 years. We first gave him medicine and finally it didn't work either. I took him to put him down and backed out and couldn't do it. I waited a week and the poor little guy would cry constantly due to…
  • "If diamonds are a girl's best friend and a dog is man's best friend, who really is the dumber sex?" hmmmm.... good question.
  • My gram, but it would be Merry Christmas honey. She passed away 4 1/2 years ago and I still can 'hear' her say that to me. And then I would say Matthew McCaughney (sp), man he is HOT!
  • Every Staff in HR should receive a yearly monetary bonus and an 'Excellent' rating on all their performance appraisals, just for showing up to work. *disclaimer: this does not mean they have to actually perform any work, just show up for it.
  • Something silly-It has in the Kaplan book to not drink coffee before the test. It says that people who didn't, had more energy for the test. I guess they did an extensive test on it........ Yeah, that is the most important advice they could give, no…

  • I took out a Kaplan book on the GRE from the library and have been studying for about 2 weeks. I have about 2 more to study, but definitely NOT enough time! I get depressed every time I take a practice test b/c I don't do well. Penn State likes an 1…

  • I'm pretty naive when it comes to this stuff. It is easy to get me. When I was in College, I was picking up a friend to take her back to college with me after a weekend at home(we were roommates). She came down with crutches and said that she had br…
  • The Union Steward's face was as red as a radish and the CEO was smiling from ear to ear, while the employee babbled between sobs.
  • Do you think Colby and Tina will become alliances again? They would be silly to, in my opinion b/c everyone will watch for that and they both will be voted off! I still hope Ethan wins! I think he might be voted off quickly due to his 'niceness', or…
  • I have a friend whose son looks like Ethan. She is swearing to watch Survivor for that reason. We are hoping he wins this time!

  • I agree. I don't get to answer many questions, but really enjoy reading the answers and asking the questions. This has really enhanced my learning in HR.
  • I would do what you feel comfortable doing. Don't let anyone 'push' you into something that you aren't comfortable with, or don't have a desire to do. Regardless of your decision, I want to wish you a big CONGRATULATIONS!! (Besides, if HR Manager co…
  • I am having a hard time finding good employees, which in itself is amazing considering the unemployment rate in PA. I also have a gap in my resume from when my company went out of business. I was a smart aleck and thought, oh I will take a month or …
  • Ours is called the Corporate Circle. You could take it! How about.... Hospitality Hours Waker Uppers (this one makes me laugh, sorry for the goofy sense of humor!) We had a contest too. One employee voted for As the corporation turns ( I am pret…
  • That is so darn funny! Thanks for the laugh. Have a good day!
  • My parents always called their cars "Bessie". I can still see my mom driving down the road, hitting the dash and saying 'c'mon Bessie, don't break down on me now!
  • I had this day ALL week! But it has gotten better. I wonder if the full moon was out? I'm glad it is just work life and not home life too. Finally this week is over and I am going home to RELAX for 3 days! Have a great weekend everyone!
  • I know how you feel. I have my annual review at the end of the month and I have a NEW (2 months new) supervisor, so it is going to be interesting. It sounds like you have alot of examples of good work you have accomplished, so no worries. Have a goo…
