Muscle Tyler Tough AMERICAN MUSCLE TYLER TOUGH As an Accountant seeing the expenses for Tyler Pipe, I often wonder if those outside the Accounting Department have any idea just how much money Tyler Pipe spends on Team Building. Would you have guessed over $100,000? I’m sure everyone can name a few team building events such as the Company Picnic and Christmas Party, but the company does so much more. I will share with you all of the events and cool by Barry Patterson things that Tyler Pipe does to build our team. Sadly, many Team Members don’t Assistant Controller participate in ANY of these. I challenge all of you to read through this list and pick one this year. I enjoy meeting Team Members I normally don’t see daily and find out the contributions that they provide to make this company great. For instance, the Madison “May Day” which was a special event to honor Mr. Madison’s sixtieth year with Tyler Pipe. Not many companies would take the time and expense to honor a 60-year employee while he is still working, but we celebrated this distinct milestone with the entire company. Cost: $4,048. Annual Events: Gary Johnstone’s Stew Day, who wants to step up and share his/her best stew recipe now that Gary has retired? Easter Egg Giveaway, Bowling Day, Popcorn Day, Kona Ice Day, Sweetheart Valentine Day Drawing, Ice Cream Day, Watermelon Day and Halloween Treats. Total cost: $4,543. Retirement Parties: Eight Retirees were treated to a party honoring them and their service to our company. Really cool that this company thinks enough of the retirees to honor them and celebrates the occasion with their fellow Team Members. Cost: $23,315. Fund Raising Runs: Tyler Pipe sponsored eight fund raising events for local charitable organizations. They pay your entry fee and for a guest. A similar event is the Tyler Pipe Day of Caring where many Team Members and friends give up a Saturday morning to pack food boxes for those less fortunate. Cost: $8,246 Gifts for Grads: If you have a son or daughter graduating from high school or college, Tyler Pipe treats these folks to a nice brunch to honor their accomplishments. Cost: $1,678. Family Day: A fun time for the whole family and this last year we were treated to the Grand Slam at Time Square where we enjoyed bowling, laser tag, a ropes course as well as an amazing arcade and awesome food. Cost: $27,109. Our New Jersey Team also had a Family Day at Camel Beach Waterpark in the sprawling Poconos Mountains of Pennsylvania. Cost: $1,006. Ranger Game: If you participate in all the extracurricular events then you are eligible to have your name drawn to go watch a Texas Ranger baseball game from a skybox. Cost: $6,160. Christmas Parties: Tyler Pipe celebrated Christmas at the Villa De’ Garcia this last December. Great food, music and dancing for you and a guest. What a way to celebrate the season. Cost: $29,362. The New Jersey Distribution Center had their annual Christmas dinner at Stone House in Warren, New Jersey. A very posh venue. Cost: $2,131. Tyler Pipe Calendars which showed all of our Team Members in their work area. They were a hit! Cost: $2,067. Extra Benefits: Did you know if you retire in good standing from Tyler Pipe you are eligible for a burial benefit? Last year Tyler Pipe paid out $45,000. And did you know we had Tuition reimbursement? Some restrictions apply but basically only three Team Members are utilizing this and were reimbursed $4,025. Charitable Contributions: Did you know Tyler Pipe gives back to the community where we live? Last year over $40,000 was donated to 32 different charities and organizations. So now you know! I have worked for Tyler Pipe for almost 40 years and I can say that I am proud to work here. There is an old adage that says, “Put your money where your mouth is.” When Tyler Pipe says that they appreciate their Team Members they are not just saying it, they are willing to put their money towards appreciation events. The activities listed above prove that Tyler Pipe cares about their Team Members and our community. Issue 141 February 27, 2020 After 11 years of working in our credit department here at Tyler Pipe, Peggy Robertson has decided that it was time to put away her ledgers and spreadsheets and enjoy life with her husband Alton and their horses. I learned that the happy couple live in Stallion Lake Ranch and have multiple horses and that many of the folks that live in their community also ride. My source stated that she had the pleasure of visiting Peggy’s home and the house, barn and acreage were breath takingly beautiful. Thanks Karin! On Friday, January 31st, Peggy said her final farewell to friends and co-workers with promises to keep in touch. A large group of Tyler Pipe Team Members, past and present, made their way to the administrative conference room to pay their respect to Peggy and wish her the best in her retirement years. Peggy’s supervisor, Randy Alexander took a moment to talk about Peggy and her accomplishments and ended by wishing her a long and happy retirement. He kept it short because if you know Randy, he is a man of few words. After a couple of brief announcement and a speech or two, the entire group was treated to a scrumptious BBQ luncheon catered by Brisket Love BBQ out of Lindale, Texas. Everyone had a great time and as is usually the case, the party ends too soon as people have to get back to work. Peggy doesn’t have to worry about that any more! So if you see Peggy and Alton out in Lindale, take a moment to wish her the best and congratulate her on her retirement. I do believe that she is headed towards greener pastures. Referring to an old baseball adage, Chester Logan asked me to take this picture (to the right) and said, “Rod, I am almost outtalk here!” As he said it he was waving his arms like an umpire that just called someone out at the plate. After 45 years and 6 months of service to Tyler Pipe, my friend Chester Logan threw in the towel and rode off into the sunset for the last time. Chester has been a fixture in the Millroom for as long as any of us can remember. He started with Tyler Pipe back in 1974 after he left the Levi’ Strauss plant on loop 323 here in Tyler. According to our records he worked at Levi then provided his notice so he could find a higher paying job. Back then his rate of pay at Levi’s was $2.74 an hour and he needed more which lead him to our doors. His application stated that he didn’t have a car but only lived 7 miles away from work and he could get a ride from a friend. Chester evidently didn’t have any issues getting to work because you know out here at Tyler Pipe if you can’t show up for work you don’t last long. Chester performed every task in the Millroom and was looked upon as a type of lead man. I know when I spoke to Supervisor Brent Smith and Manager Jason Sieben that they had nothing but praise for Chester. Chester even took on the task of training new hires on the grinding wheel. He has worked here long enough to know the safety and quickest way to grind those fittings. Sieben told me, “Chester can work with a new hire for about two days and know whether they have what it takes to do the job and do it safely.” The guys that I spoke to who were trained by Chester had great things to say about the man. A quote was, “Chester told us how to stand, how to hold the fitting and how to increase our speed and do all of it with safety in mind. I owe a lot to Chester and the things that he taught me.” I say that Chester drove off into the sunset because he didn’t have a party and I didn’t even get a chance to say goodbye to him. You can always tell if someone was a good person Chester Logan in his and whether they positively affected other people by what is normal position, said about them after they have left. People are still talking directing folks! A Blast from the Past - Chester Logan about Chester and that is a testament to the type of man that he is. Good luck and God Bless Chester! Issue 141 February 27, 2020 It’s that time again! The time of the year when we ask for anyone and everyone that is interested in participating in the FRESH 15 to step forward and get registered. Yes, you can join the face of Tyler Pipe, the Tyler Pipe “Poster Child” herself, Faye Pettigrew in this worthy ambition to raise funds for charitable organizations throughout Smith County. The race will be held on Saturday, March 7th. There are three separate races for run- ners of all levels. There is the 1k race for the kiddos, a 5k race for the intermediate runner and a 15k for those folks that make the rest of us shake our heads! Remember, while this may be called a race it is for walkers, joggers as well as runners and if you don’t want the physical exertion then you can volunteer to help out.

  • 13 Musts for Breaking Bad News to Your Employees
    13 musts for breaking bad news to your employees Have to tell the troops about layoffs, an upper-level scandal, an imminent hostile takeover or divestment? Follow these essentials. SPONSORED BY: Lawrence Ragan Communications, Inc. 13 musts for breaking bad news to your employees Nobody likes to be the bearer of bad tidings, whether it’s news of layoffs, a product recall, a reduction in benefits, financial woes or an executive resigning under a cloud. Yet to succeed as an executive—or a communicator—it’s essential that you level with your employees. Transparency is an increasingly important goal for organizations. Internal communications expert Sean Williams says a related concept may be just as essential: authenticity. Publicly traded companies can’t always open their books to the world, but they can make a commit- ment to be straight—authentic and honest—in their communications, he says. This means holding to this promise: “If we’re asked directly about something, we’re going to answer directly,” Williams says. Here are more tips for successfully breaking bad news: 1. Prepare. Good messaging doesn’t emerge spontaneously, especially in times of trouble. At a previous compa- ny, Todd Johnson, now president and board chairman of Kollective, was part of a team that spent six hours preparing the chief executive for a 15-minute presentation onstage to employees. The leader didn’t do well at first. “He was going to sound like he was spinning,” Johnson says. “He wasn’t going to answer any ques- tions about layoffs. People were going to think there was some grand scheme behind all this, and none of it was true.” By working through it, the CEO boosted trust in his message.

  • Employee Free Speech in the Workplace: Using the First Amendment As Public Policy for Wrongful Discharge Actions
    Employee Free Speech in the Workplace: Using the First Amendment as Public Policy for Wrongful Discharge Actions LISA B. BINGHAM* I. INTRODUCTION A private-sector employer in the United States may fire an employee for the employee's political views. 2 During the 1992 presidential campaign, employers required that employees sit through a presidential candidate's stump speech as part of a company-wide captive audience. 3 Employees commented to * Assistant Professor of Public and Environmental Affairs, Indiana University; J.D., University of Connecticut, 1979; Partner, law firm of Shipman & Goodwin, Hartford, CT 1979-89. This research was supported by a grant from The Fund for Labor Relations Studies, Ann Arbor, MI. The author thanks Professor Theodore St. Antoine, University of Michigan School of Law, for his comments on the manuscript and helpful suggestions. Professor Harry Pratter, Indiana University School of Law, also shared his insights and improved the manuscript with his review. The author gratefully acknowledges the invaluable assistance of Clark Johnson, who served as research assistant on this project. I As used in this paper, "private sector" employment includes all but government employment. The term includes nonprofit employers and private employers with substantial government contracts or grants. "Public sector" employment includes employment by federal, state, and local government, including municipalities, school boards, state institutions of higher education, and similar boards or commissions that represent political subdivisions of a state. 2 There are limited areas of protection for certain categories of expression.

  • Sample MBE III
    Sample MBE III July 1998 See Caveat Inside ® PREFACE The Multistate Bar Examination (MBE) is an objective six-hour examination developed by the National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE) that contains 200 questions. It was first administered in February 1972 and is currently a component of the bar examination in most U.S. jurisdictions. CAVEAT! The 200 questions contained in this document appeared on the MBE administered in July 1998, which consisted of questions in the following areas: Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law and Procedure, Evidence, Real Property, and Torts. This document does not contain Civil Procedure questions. The purpose of this document is to familiarize examinees with the format and nature of MBE questions. The questions in this document should not be used for substantive preparation for the MBE. Because of changes in the law since the time the examination was administered, the questions and their keys may no longer be current. Also, because the MBE test specifications have changed over time, some of these questions may contain material no longer tested on the MBE or currently tested in a different subject area. The editorial style of questions and the general instructions have changed as well. Many of these questions are currently in use, sometimes with alteration, by commercial bar review courses under a licensing agreement with NCBE. Because these questions are available in the marketplace, NCBE is choosing to make them available online. Examinees are encouraged to use as additional study aids the MBE Online Practice Exams, which are available for purchase at the NCBE Study Aids Store at https://store.ncbex.org.

  • Talking to Strangers: the Use of a Cameraman in the Office and What
    Running Head: TALKING TO STRANGERS 1 Talking to Strangers The Use of a Cameraman in The Office and What It Reveals about Communication Sarah Stockslager A Senior Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation in the Honors Program Liberty University Fall 2010 TALKING TO STRANGERS 2 Acceptance of Senior Honors Thesis This Senior Honors Thesis is accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation from the Honors Program of Liberty University. ______________________________ Lynnda S. Beavers, Ph.D. Thesis Chair ______________________________ Robert Lyster, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ James A. Borland, Th.D. Committee Member ______________________________ Brenda Ayres, Ph.D. Honors Director ______________________________ Date TALKING TO STRANGERS 3 Abstract In the television mock-documentary The Office, co-workers Jim and Pam tell the cameraman they are dating before they tell their fellow co-workers in the office. The cameraman sees them getting engaged before anyone in the office has a clue. Even the news of their pregnancy is witnessed first by the camera crew. Jim and Pam’s boss, Michael, and other employees, such as Dwight, Angela and others, also share this trend of self-disclosure to the cameraman. They reveal secrets and embarrassing stories to the cameraman, showing a private side of themselves that most of their co-workers never see. First the term “mock-documentary” is explained before specifically discussing the The Office. Next the terms and theories from scholarly sources that relate the topic of self-disclosure to strangers are reviewed. Consequential strangers, weak ties, the stranger- on-a-train phenomenon, and para-social interaction are studied in relation to the development of a new listening stranger theory.

  • Fort Howard Company Records, 1919 – 2009
    FORT HOWARD COMPANY RECORDS, 1919 – 2009 Abstract Records, product samples, photographs, video recordings, and artifacts of a Green Bay, Wisconsin paper manufacturer. Fort Howard was one of the nation’s largest producers of disposable paper products such as: toilet paper, paper toweling, napkins, placemats, and wipers. Documented are Fort Howard’s innovations in the use of recycled paper and other environmental issues, inventions and patents of paper making and paper folding machines, expansions, acquisitions, mergers, employee activities, and company philanthropy. Biographical information on the Cofrin family and other company leaders is also present. Presented by the Georgia Pacific Corporation (South Broadway Plant, Green Bay), 2001 Processed under the direction of Deb Anderson, Archivist, by Renee Ettinger, Jeanne Neidenbach Jean Wentz and Jeanine Mead (2001-2010). History The Fort Howard Company was founded in 1919 by Austin E. Cofrin, with backing by a handful of investors. Built on the west side of the Fox River in Green Bay, Wisconsin, the company takes its name from an 1800s military outpost located near the mouth of the Fox River. The company was dedicated to the mass manufacture of sanitary paper products (namely bath tissue, colored crepe, facial tissue, and paper toweling in the early days). Their marketing strategy of “elegant yet affordable” made Fort Howard’s products widely available to the majority of the population, including private, business, and commercial sectors. From the start, Fort Howard operated nearly self-sufficiently. It supplied many of its own needs that would normally have been be purchased or contracted through outside sources. They created their own power, they made some of their own chemicals, they maintained their own landfills, and they built and serviced their own machines.
