CHEAp? so tell me how you been around him?So at least 25 years ago at a cheap strip club where I'm sure everyone was sober....he doesn't act like that in his day to day life. Been around him plenty, the radio's a character

God bless the crimes that these Illegals will bring to America!!God bless the free market economy for low income jobs!
Though a Xavier I have always liked Bob but it is time for him to retire. He starting to look and sound like an old drunken fool!Huggins received a DUI last night around 8:30pm in Pittsburgh, blowing a .21. He was unsure what city he was in, he mentioned Columbus a couple of times.
Looking like the comments he made on WLW are the least of his worry. A forced Retirement seems to be the next step.

West Virginia's Huggins arrested on DUI charge
West Virginia coach Bob Huggins was arrested in Pittsburgh on a charge of driving under the influence, with police saying his blood alcohol content was 0.21% in a breath test.www.espn.com
I'm not really huge into strip clubs but yes, I'd consider Bristol's to be on the lower end when they were around. I'm not far from where they used to be. We'd take guys to the lunch buffet when friends turned 18. Switched to Diamonds thoughCHEAp? so tell me how you been around him?
Well it's obviously the business owners that are coming up with it since they're offering it as an incentive to keep the older workers in the company. Just like everything else you argue...these things are being added as incentive to keep and draw employees. The same reason companies are paying more. People don't stay with companies their entire career anymore. Most are staying 3-5 years max and leaving for better pay and benefits elsewhere. Employees are no longer loyal to their employers like past generations.Heard a good one today....I guess there are a couple of larger corps that are floating the idea of grandternity leave....what is it? Well it's paid time off for new grandparents. The issue stems from I guess older workers retiring to take care of grandkids.
This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. I mean Pa-ternity is ridiculous enough where Dad's get 8-12 weeks off paid to have a kid. There is no way anyone who runs businesses comes up with this stuff.
Let me know if Mike says anything tomorrow about the parasite ex cop Scot Peterson from Parkland, being cleared. Mike is usually aligned with me on stuff like that. Peterson should have been thrown in jail.I really think if people listen to Mike McConnell daily, they would be smarter and see things differently.
Wasn't able to catch Mike today, I'll try to catch the podcast and see if he said anything. I guess I'm not familiar with the Peterson case.Let me know if Mike says anything tomorrow about the parasite ex cop Scot Peterson from Parkland, being cleared.

I'll tell you this, yes, you're seeing SOME companies come up with these silly things, and I get it, but at some point the pendulum will swing the other way and I feel when times get tough, not if, we'll have to blame company shut downs on too much labor costs, including benefits.Well it's obviously the business owners that are coming up with it since they're offering it as an incentive to keep the older workers in the company.

N-95 for farmers and outdoor workers.So just out of curiosity, WLW reports this haze and wildfires in Canada, they also say people should stay inside and not do strenuous activities outside. So what about construction workers and farmers??? I mean you can't just take days off in certain lines of work.
I have a family member who works for a company that offers amazing benefits. I used to think it was to keep the union out, now I think it may have more to do with employee retainment.I'll tell you this, yes, you're seeing SOME companies come up with these silly things, and I get it, but at some point the pendulum will swing the other way and I feel when times get tough, not if, we'll have to blame company shut downs on too much labor costs, including benefits.
No doubt, I'd actually flip those, I think employee retainment is much more vital than keeping the union out. Union are dying all over. Most people don't even stay at employers long enough to care about a union. Employee turnover is very costly to organizations, but there are just so many jobs out there and unemployment is so good that there is little downside to leaving jobs.I have a family member who works for a company that offers amazing benefits.

It will be real interesting to see if UPS workers vote to strike and thereby screw themselves competitive wise? I still use UPS because they are easy to find in shopping centers near me, but almost everything I order comes either Fed Ex or Amazon.No doubt, I'd actually flip those, I think employee retainment is much more vital than keeping the union out.

Most workers who strike don't see the long term downside. I guess if UPS goes under then can go work for Amazon??It will be real interesting to see if UPS workers vote to strike and thereby screw themselves competitive wise?

Where have you seen Employee Strikes lead to businesses just straight up closing?Most workers who strike don't see the long term downside. I guess if UPS goes under then can go work for Amazon??
True, but the whole union mentality goes against this. Union is about protecting jobs, equality for all employees. Why work hard when everyone gets the same?Workers have a bit of a hand up right now if you're a hard worker and looking to advance
Most of these jobs aren't union jobs. I'm fine with unions are think they serve a purpose, you know what you're getting and there's probably more job security in some instances. And at those places the only way to get significant raises would be via promotion or working extended hours at an OT rate.True, but the whole union mentality goes against this.

Big City? Are you familiar with where it happened?Listening to The Big One this week, the story of the 9 year old girl being fatally shot by stray bullets while in her house is just so sad. I cannot imagine living in a big city where some people have no regard for human life.
No, wasn't in the city?Big City? Are you familiar with where it happened?
No, right around the corner from the Kenwood Mall. These types on things are happening in nearly every community to some extent. For instance I live in Warren County and it seems like we're averaging about one shooting a week now. There's been five officer inolved shootings I can think of just this yearNo, wasn't in the city?
More drive by shootings yesterday. To me, this is a direct consequence of the riots and backlash a few years ago and the constant complaints of police brutality. We've handcuffed authorities to take action because of fear of lawsuits. We get what we get.No, right around the corner from the Kenwood Mall.

I agree -- one point I've made for many many years is that when you drive by a high school these days there are cars everywhere and they are newer and in great shape. I'm going to sound like the old man I am -- "Back in my day" -- if you did have a car to drive to school it was the families 2nd or 3rd car, which was an older fixer-upper and most that did drive were taking a car load of friends and family with them.That darn Mike McConnell, he just dispels all the myths of how bad it is today for the younger generation.
................. . Cars / vehicles look pretty good, eh? Not too long ago, you'd drive by a factory and it was cars that were 10-20 years old, rustbuckets, in poor condition.
