Secret Valentine – If you would like to participate in our Secret Valentine gift exchange (just like Secret Santa), pick up a form from Becca or Megan! We’ll do a $20 limit, with all gifts handed out by February 14th :)
From Barb: Please see Barb whenever you get a chance to have your picture taken for staff IDs!
Friendly reminder: Staff are scheduled until 3:30 (unless you have after school programming). Check the door to the red room for tasks to do once your client leaves.
URGENT EMAIL NOTICE FROM IT: We are upgrading our email servers tonight to improve performance, reduce spam, and meet the growing storage needs of the company. What does this mean for you? Your mobile devices and computers using Thunderbird will NOT be able to send or receive email until you update to the new settings. IT can assist you with this. However, if you're comfortable making the changes yourself, the new email settings (IMAP/SMTP or Incoming/Outgoing) will be posted at the top of the sdemployees.com login homepage and on the sdemployees.com email page. For immediate email access, visit www.sdemployees.com and click on the 'Check My Email' button on the homepage. Please email IT at it.dept@sdplus.us if you need assistance (or text us at 802-323-4851) after email goes down. We will not know the new settings until the switch takes place tonight between 5:00 and 10:00 PM.
****Signing in and out****
Please notify Barb (if she’s away from her desk, text her) when leaving the building WITH OR WITHOUT A CLIENT. This includes leaving the building for lunch and at the end of your shift.
AFTER SCHOOL HOURS – 14 and 52 staff will notify/text Brendan, 71 staff will notify/text Becca, and 02 and 03 will notify/text Jess Wilson.
IMPORTANT INFO REGARDING CLOCKING IN/OUT:
- Hello all hourly employees. The use of the Time Tracker form to submit hours to be paid off from will be discontinued as of the next pay period, beginning 2.9.18. There have been too many errors of incorrect recording as most people are not using them in Real Time; rather filling them out at the end of the pay period which is not okay. Paychex and the use of Time and Attendance change forms will be the only documents we will be accepting for time. If you have a situation in which you can not use Paychex and the time and attendance forms for recording your time, please see your PSI and they will assist you in finding a solution.
IMPORTANT TAX INFO: Forms 1095-C are now available. This is a form, from Paychex, that will assist you in completing questions about health coverage on your 2017 personal income tax returns. However, you do not need to submit the form to the IRS when filing your tax returns.
Penguin Plunge!!!
- COME CHEER ON THE SD FROST AND FURIOUS PENGUIN PLUNGE TEAM!!! Head down to the waterfront on Saturday, Feb. 3rd around 12:00 and watch them jump by 12:30. We would love to have a great cheering squad and then we can all celebrate downtown afterward. Can’t cheer on the team but still want to participate…you can still donate. Our team is currently in 15th place, help keep us there or move us up by donating at https://give.specialolympicsvermont.org/team/147596. Thank you!
AND FINALLY…here’s your daily dose of cuteness that we can all relate to here at FUV :)
