Finals are done, don't know how I did on one of them yet, but I'm hoping for a high B or a low A out of both classes.
I have wonderful memories of my Labor Relations class! Did mine in Grad school as part of a double MBA/MPA program. I had a teacher who had been an arbitrator of mining company disputes, and our class activities often saw shoes banging on tables, labor screaming at management while jumping on chairs. VERY realistic and some times scary! As the prof said, these folks were fighting for money to feed their families, not to join country clubs. I had the same prof for Business Law and he made that class come alive too. Best teacher I've ever had!

Now I've got a break til Jan. 12th, when I start on Compensation & Benefits and Statistics. Neither of which I'm looking forward to, exactly. Out of all of it, I've enjoyed my law classes the most.
Human Resource Management is a wonderful field. I did a thesis for one of my graduate degrees on Herzberg's motivation theory to see if it would apply to non-service industries. (It doesn't .) Herzberg is the guy who gave us the term 'kita' for motivation.
