Employee turnover is extremely expensive. It reduces production and increases internal friction. Use the EMPLOYEE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM to: HIRE THE RIGHT PEOPLE. Every job has its own "ideal personality". Would you place a quiet, thoughtful person out in the sales field, or does that job require a self-motivated go-getter?

Discover the positive work traits, decision making methods, stamina level, management methods, and performance characteristics of any employee/applicant in less than five minutes. KNOW WHAT MOTIVATES YOUR EMPLOYEES. EMS tells the MOTIVATIONAL and DEMOTIVATIONAL factors for each employee. This will help the manager know how to motivate an employee, to make that employee happy, and also how to avoid demotivating that person. REDUCE ADVERTISING & INTERVIEWING COSTS. EMS keeps track of all employees and job applicants so that when a position opens, applicants can be matched to the job immediately, without having to repeat the expensive hiring process.

It includes everything featured in our basic Employee Management System package, then adds the following features: STRESS EVALUATION SYSTEM. Stress can be very detrimental to your business. Excessive stress in employees causes irritation, loss of production, and eventually loss of that employee. EMS5 shows you key areas of potentially harmful stress so that you can help your employee overcome that stress before it becomes a business liability. PERSONNEL DATABASE SYSTEM lets you track important employee/ applicant information. Define your own information requirements and design reports according to your needs. Keep records of any employee information you want: vacation and sick leave, work experience, personal and family information, job skills, and much more. PDS ties in to the Personality Evaluation Program to provide you with extensive reference capabilities. Do you want to locate all applicants in your files that live within your city limits, are age 18-34 and have outgoing personalities? With PDS you can do this and much more. COST EFFECTIVE. The EMS line of programs provides versatility and power at a low cost. Unlike many other programs of this nature, there is only a single, one-time fee. There are no "per report" charges, no additional costs. EMS was written specifically for the business environment. It is not an "adapted" psychological program. It does not "pull skeletons out of the closet". EMS will save you money, make your business more productive, and improve employee/management relations. Let us demonstrate EMS to you. We think you'll be amazed. The EMPLOYEE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 5 is a powerful business package, yet is very easy to use. It offers you the benefits of: *PERSONALITY EVALUATION *STRESS ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT *PERSONNEL DATABASE *APPLICANT TO JOB MATCHING *IMPROVED INTERVIEWING *DESIGNING WANT ADS *EMPLOYEE TRACKING *EMPLOYEE/APPLICANT HISTORY ...and more. Like standard EMS, this program has NO RUN-TIME or REPORT charge. This makes EMS5 a very cost-effective business investment that will more than pay for itself the first time it helps you improve employee relations. EMS5 is more expensive than EMS, but our clients agree its advanced features are worth every penny. Regis $495. ============================================================== The Surgeon General has determined that endless, complex accounting can bring on premature aging and cause nervous breakdowns. Therefore, you need to buy our programs right away while there is still a chance to save yourself. Our excellent game selection... ============================================================== ANOTHER LIFELESS PLANET AND ME WITH NO BEER also includes COMPU-NERD NOBEER is an incredibly funny science fiction adventure game that is, astounding as it may seem, logical. It was created with the GAMESCAPE adventure development system. In NOBEER, you are an astronaut who has crash landed on an alien planet (again). Beware the BLADDER BEASTS, SLURPERS, AIR SQUIDS, and above all, the deadly PUN PALM (really, we're not kidding. That Pun Palm is a pain... We're just not frond of it at all). ANOTHER LIFELESS PLANET AND ME WITH NO BEER is an adventure gaming must have. COMPU-NERD is a tongue-in-cheek program that tells you if you have the dread maladies Computerus Nerditis or Bozoitis-Jerkonus. Are you a computer nerd? Find out today! Regis 10.oo ea ============================================================== GAMESCAPE GRAPHIC GAMESCAPE is a powerful program that enables you to write and distribute your own graphic adventure games. Gamescape contains an "adventure engine" that allows you to describe locations and rooms, objects, recognizable words, messages, and occurrences that happen within the game. You can also include sound, music, and any of the standard IBM special graphics characters (terrific for mapping). Gamescape encodes information so your game secrets cannot be deciphered by end users, and allows games to be "linked" so your adventures can be of any length. It provides you the ability to design incredibly detailed and large adventure games with great ease. Once the game is finished, registered users are allowed to distribute the games with no royalty fee-- the initial registration is all that's required. Even if you don't want to write games, Gamescape is an excellent system for learning basic programming principles. If you've had trouble figuring out how to program your computer, Gamescape may be the link you need; it is very easy to learn and use. The registered version of Gamescape now has the ability to include high-resolution, color graphics in your games, to make them more marketable than ever before! Regis 95.oo (Gamescape) ============================================================== RINGWIELDER also includes GIANT SPACE SLUG RINGWIELDER is an incredible non-computer role-playing game that features the worlds of both fantasy and science fiction. The full set of rules is included on this disk in text form. In a "role- playing game" you take on the characteristics of someone (or something) from the realm of fantasy or science fiction and play the game as if you are that character. While RINGWIELDER does use both the worlds of fantasy and science, the occult and extreme violence so prevalent in other games are omitted. This provides a viable alternative to those who are offended by such things. RINGWIELDER is easy to play and fast-moving. The rules are easy to understand, but interesting enough to hold the interest of even the most advanced gamer. RINGWIELDER was ten years in the making. The entire rule section is contained within this disk, along with an offer to obtain the official, collectors-item set and club membership. GIANT SPACE SLUG is an arcade game, the classic game of Worms at supersonic speed. Regis 35.oo (Ringwielder) 10.oo (Slug) ============================================================== FUNGAL MAN GAME PACK Also includes MAROONED AGAIN, FALLOUT and SWINE ! Prepare for the worst. Fungal Man is here. Idol of tens of people. You are the intrepid super-hero who has one purpose in life: to destroy the deadly mutant fungal blobs by trapping them in the damper pods. FUNGAL MAN is a "thinking arcade" game which includes nine scenarios ranging from easy to moderately difficult. You can also design your own scenarios and turn them in for entry in our quarterly contest. Registered users can distribute their scenarios (no royalty fee) and make millions of dollars (well, a few bucks anyway). MAROONED AGAIN is our highly acclaimed funny, science fiction adventure game. Unusual as it sounds, it is logical! Marooned Again is also somewhat of a "Nobeer Part 1", and has the same theme of a stranded astronaut trying to get off an alien planet. FALLOUT and SWINE! are excellent arcade and strategy games. Regis 25.oo (Fungal) 10.oo ea (Marooned, Fallout & Swine!) ============================================================== We do not sell to Zombies due to Federal Statutes prohibiting the formation of contracts post mortem.

Fully-working demonstrations of the programs are made available for a small duplication charge. You are allowed to try out the program for a short period of time (usually 10-30 days). If you decide to continue using the program, you must register (according to Federal law). If not, you discontinue use of the program and pass it on to a friend.
