How might the next court ruling affect your company/employees? I really haven't read into it, but were your superiors perhaps holding out hope it would come down at the same time as the other one so they'd have an idea of what their next options might be?
Apparently, there have been quite a few last minute vacations being used here locally. Using paid time off and vacation days is a pretty clear sign that they must be serious about it. Another problem is a lot of females have decided they can live without all the extras in exchange for spending time at home with their kids and it's having a fairly significant affect on the local care facilities ability to find younger employees. They are recruiting at the local nursing school like never before in an attempt to get every warm body they can. Historically, they have to cut these young kids off at the pass before they get a chance to move to KC.
Oddly enough, one of their best sources of quality new workers has been young families wanting to move back out of the metro area to get their kids into what they consider the better rural school systems they themselves came from. The head of one of the care facilities had really good success with this pitch at one of those "employment fair" type of things they had in KC a few months ago. In the past, there was very very little success with this method.
