You're so lucky. Just the other day, Sweets was telling me about a vendor he went to visit. They had a hallway lined with photos of their employees. And, under every photo was an idea the employee had submitted that they had acted on. I'm not so sure companies really need to pat themselves on the backs like that, but the act of change itself is definitely impressive.Nilsa @ SoMi Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474642034399063234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13000256.post-41598403244423501642012-03-09T14:16:38.361-05:002012-03-09T14:16:38.361-05:00That's really fantastic that your company can ...That's really fantastic that your company can talk about and address issues like that.<br /><br />As an additional note, I'm pretty sure benefits are also taxable if you're in a domestic partnership.
