re: What's the best way to onboard new employees from a 50,000 foot view?
Posted by highcotton2 on 4/27/25 at 11:29 am
From a 50,000-foot view, onboarding new employees should focus on three key pillars: alignment, connection, and empowerment. Here’s how it breaks down at that high level:
1. Alignment
• Communicate the mission, vision, and values of the organization.
• Clarify the company’s goals and how the employee’s role fits into the big picture.
• Set expectations for performance, behavior, and outcomes early.
2. Connection
• Foster relationships with managers, peers, and cross-functional teams.
• Assign a mentor or buddy to guide them through cultural and procedural norms.
• Cultivate a sense of belonging to improve engagement and retention.
3. Empowerment
• Provide the tools, access, and training they need to succeed.
• Give early wins and hands-on learning opportunities.
• Encourage questions, feedback, and autonomy from day one.

re: Anyone know why President Trump wore a blue suit to a black suit event?

This is the headline.
But when you read the article you find this gem.
This is the consensus of the internet about whether a blue suit qualifies as a dark suit.

I mean, it's not like they dipped out across town. They were gone for days.
I have no idea about the background of these girls but if they came from households without a lot of money you would not think they would have passports at a young age. Who helped them get passports? Parents would normally be involved in that.
Edit: Guess they didn’t need a passport. Just read where the island was in the US Virgin Islands. I thought it was in the BVI.

These travelers were denied entry after attempting to enter the U.S. under false pretenses. One used a Visitor visa, the other the Visa Waiver Program," CBP Assistant Commissioner Hilton Beckham said in a statement.

must haves
Silicon gun socks. Was really sold on these after seeing some guns taken out of a safe that had been in a home fire. The safe was in the basement and water from the fire hoses creeped into the safe and it was about 24 hours before the safe was opened. The guns in socks looked perfect the ones without had some pretty substantial surface rust. Also help protect from bumping against each other. Cheap investment for what they provide.
