Ducks in Heaven...

Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven: don't step on the ducks!"

So they enter heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on one.

Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw.

St. Peter chains them together and says, "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man!" The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck and along comes St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing. With him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman.

The third woman has observed all this and, not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, is very, VERY careful where she steps.

She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on ... very tall, long eyelashes, muscular, and thin. St. Peter chains them together without saying a word.

The happy woman says, "I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?"

The guy says, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck!"

--------

kekeke.

i feel like a lot of us are like that third woman...we try sooooooo hard to avoid the "ugly" but we don't realize that we can be the "ugly" to someone else. 

happy monday everyone!

CSU Works to Ensure Employees Receive Paychecks

The CSU will look for ways to help ease impact on state general fund

(July 24, 2008) – In response to Governor Schwarzenegger's request today for state agencies to cut the pay of state workers to the federal minimum wage until a budget is passed, California State University Chancellor Charles B. Reed said that CSU employees will continue to receive their regular paychecks while the university seeks ways to cooperate with the state to minimize the impact on the state general fund. While CSU is not under direct executive authority and subject to the requirement, Governor Schwarzenegger has requested that CSU and a number of other state entities assist in the effort.

"We are working to ensure that CSU employees will receive their regular paychecks and can expect their normal compensation until a new budget is signed," said Reed. "At the same time, we are looking at paying compensation with alternative revenue sources other than the state general fund in an effort to cooperate with the Governor and the legislature in this challenging budget environment."

Gov. Schwarzenegger has announced his intent to issue an order to cut the pay of about 200,000 state workers to the federal minimum wage of $6.55 an hour until a budget is signed in an effort to avert a cash crisis. The budget deadline was July 1, and without a signed budget soon, the state has indicated it may run out of cash and be unable to borrow the billions of dollars needed to meet the state’s financial commitments.

The Governor has also called for a hiring freeze of all non-critical functions. For the CSU, this will mean "we are going to be prudent in our hiring, but the CSU needs to be prepared to serve the record number of students that will be enrolling on campuses for the fall semester beginning in August. To be responsive, the CSU will need to hire faculty and staff to help meet the needs of those students," said Reed.

In addition to the CSU, the Governor has requested that other state entities including the University of California, California Community Colleges, the California Public Utilities Commission, constitutional officers, and legislative and judicial branches, assist with similar efforts to help preserve the state’s cash supply during the budget impasse.

uh...i know that the CSU isn't complying...but if they were to....could they really do that?  just drop everyone to minimum wage?  is that just for hourly people?  how does that even work?  then do people get paid retroactively for the difference?  it doesn't make sense to me.  doooode...i'd be sooooo pissed if they told me i was gonna have to be paid minimum wage!!!
