The right margin of the article is being cut off too early.

same thing happens.

Thank you very much in advance.

I am involved in retail middle management, and an employee presented this scenario.

The upper management had apparently been "mis- adding" the hours punched in on the employee time cards on a regualr basis.
Sometimes by as much as a few hours per employee!

Hence, the employees were quite often not paid for their actual hours worked.

Also, the HR director instituted a policy of not paying the employees for unused breaks. In fact, he always charged them for a half- hour break even though taking one wasn't always feasible.

Now, in my current title as shift leader, I am not in a position to override these decisions and policies. I have been affected by this maltreatment as well.

Whether it is common or not, is this sort of thing legal?

Also, what are our legal options and what ramifications may they hold in store for us down the road?

We live and work in NJ and are unsure if calling the D.O.L. is the right decision right now.

Follow me on this one. We pay cops' salary. We pay taxes to drive on public roads. In a sense, we pay cops to pull us over and hassle us, for driving on roads we pay to drive on! Now, is that not stupid?

(For the record, I love cops. I have friends who are cops. I asked them this question, too. They agreed with me.)

We live in a small town, and last night my boyfriend was pulled over and given a warning ticket that he had signed without reading. The officer told him that he was pulling him over for the break light being out. The officer wrote it stating that it was for speeding. But also while he was being pulled over the officer ran his record back 20 years till he could find the one accident he did have. Then also proceeded to state that one of our neighbors said that they caught us dumping trash in the apt. dumpsters. (Why would we do that when we pay for our trsh on time since we lived here he said) - We have only lived in this town little less than a year - I feel that we are being harrassed and what can we do? It is our word aginst his. Also note that the officer told him that b/c our insurance card expired that he could give him a ticket for not having a current insurance card. What kind of crap is that anyway. We abide by the law, so why the harassmnt and what can we do? Thanks 4 any help

We've all had trouble with our animals, but I don't think anyone can top this one:





Calling in sick to work makes me uncomfortable. No matter how legitimate my excuse, I always get the feeling that my boss thinks I'm lying.

On one recent occasion, I had a valid reason but lied anyway, because the truth was just too darned humiliating. I simply mentioned that I had sustained a head injury, and I hoped I would feel up to coming in the next day. By then, I reasoned, I could think up a doozy to explain the bandage on the top of my head. The accident occurred mainly because I had given in to my wife's wishes to adopt a cute little kitty.
Initially, the new acquisition was no problem

Then one morning, I was taking my shower after breakfast when I heard my wife, Deb, call out to me from the kitchen.

"Honey! The garbage disposal is dead again. Please come reset it."

"You know where the button is," I protested through the shower pitter-patter and steam. "Reset it yourself!"

"But I'm scared!" she persisted. "What if it starts going and sucks me in?" There was a meaningful pause and then, "C'mon, it'll only take you a second."

So out I came, dripping wet and butt naked, hoping that my silent outraged nudity would make a statement about how I perceived her behavior as extremely cowardly.

Sighing loudly, I squatted down and stuck my head under the sink to find the button. It is the last action I remember performing.

It struck without warning, and without any respect to my circumstances. No, it wasn't the hexed disposal, drawing me into its gnashing metal teeth. It was our new kitty, who discovered the fascinating dangling objects she spied hanging between my legs. She had been poised around the corner and stalked me as I reached under the sink. And, at the precise moment when I was most vulnerable, she leapt at the toys I unwittingly offered and snagged them with her needle-like claws. I lost all rational thought to control orderly bodily movements, blindly rising at a violent rate of speed, with the full weight of a kitten hanging from my masculine region.

Wild animals are sometimes faced with a "fight or flight" syndrome. Men, in this predicament, choose only the "flight" option. I know this from experience. I was fleeing straight up into the air when the sink and cabinet bluntly and forcefully impeded my ascent.

The impact knocked me out cold.

When I awoke, my wife and the paramedics stood over me. Now there are not many things in this life worse than finding oneself lying on the kitchen floor butt naked in front of a group of "been-there, done-that" paramedics.
Even worse, having been fully briefed by my wife, the paramedics were all snorting loudly as they tried to conduct their work, all the while trying to suppress their hysterical laughter......and not succeeding.

Somehow I lived through it all. A few days later I finally made it back in to the office, where colleagues tried to coax an explanation out of me about my head injury. I kept silent, claiming it was too painful to talk about, which it was. "What's the matter?" They all asked, "Cat got your tongue?"
If they only knew!


Why is it that only the women laugh at this?

Hope your week is better than his!!!!!!!!!!
