Holiday pay can sometimes be a source of confusion for employers. For which days are you required to allow employees time off, and must that time be paid?

It’s five answers to five questions. Here we go…. 1. My coworker’s food restrictions mean that I’ll be the one restricted. My company is based mainly in two cities. Every so often, we all meet up in one city or another and go out to eat, paid for by the company. It’s usually a really nice evening, and viewed as a real treat. We’ve always had to be a little careful where we book, because a couple of employees need gluten-free food.

Their Physical Appearance (I.E., Sorry we aren’t club-ready – I was up with a sick kid all night!). Their Professional Accomplishments (I.E., Just because I’m a woman doesn’t mean I can’t brag about what I do great!).

Let’s face it: Managers can be annoying and, from time to time, you may be tempted to ignore their instructions. This is all completely logical, of course. Managers often haven’t done the job you’ve done—at least not for years—and you likely have insights that they lack. But, ignore managers at your own peril. Managers Have Power Over You. Your manager may be a brilliant and skilled technician who can guide and direct you to do a better job.

Believe it or not, some people don't like to talk about their personal life. I know, I know, this seems bizarre in a time when people post photos of themselves sitting on the toilet or reveal every detail of giving birth. In the workplace we often form friendships -- some of them very close -- and as a result we share details of our lives. The woman in the next cubicle, for example, knows that your teenager is getting into trouble and your husband lost his job last week.

Cafe friend Paul Hebert has written an intriguing article at the HR Examiner (where he serves on the Editorial Advisory Board) in which he puts forth a very interesting assertion. His premise is this: that the HR/employee relationship is dysfunctional and amost surely codependent. (Yeah, that last part stings - doesn't it?) And further that our increasing dependence on technology in general - and AI in particular - is actually increasing the dysfunction.
