workaday Wednesday
Oct. 23rd, 2024 08:14 amIt is Wednesday! Work will be happening!
The workplace recently shared a new and improved, updated employee handbook. We were told there are some new sections, but not what they are. (Why???) The whole thing is a whopping 80+ pages long, so I've been working my way through it in sections.
So far, no surprises. (Hooray!)
Things I love about the employee handbook:
*the way it always puts the numbers in parenthesis after the word; as in "dress code includes five (5) days a week" -- I'm sure it's some legal thing, but it's been co-opted by the internet so effectively that it makes me laugh every time
*the way it specifically lists rules for certain states, but never what the rules are if you're NOT in those states
*the way the rules are sometimes extremely detailed, and sometimes incredibly vague, but always presented as if they're exactly the same
