Okay, this isn’t employment related news, but I love dogs (and cats!), so here it is.
The grand opening of Sugar Land’s Pawm Springs Dog Park will be held on Oct. 10th from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., at Sugar Land Memorial Park, 15300 University Blvd.

For more information, contact the Sugar Land Parks and Recreation Department at (281) 275-2885.
Now get those doggies out there and play!

Check out www.glassdoor.com to get reviews and salaries on over 11,000 companies. Reviews and salaries are posted by employees. It’s free but requires registration.
With their “give-to-get” model, just give them your review of a current or former employer (your post is anonymous — you don’t even need to include your job title) and get full access to all reviews for all companies.
It’s a fairly new website. So far we like it.
