Unreferenced date December 2009 original research date September 2010 In popular music , a side project is a project undertaken by one or more persons already known for their involvement in another band. It can also be an artist or a band temporarily switching to a different style. EXAMPLES artist Devin Townsend doing Ocean Machine side project, bands Coil or King Crimson doing some side projects with full crew. Usually these projects emphasize a different aspect of that person s or that band s musical interests that they feel they cannot explore within the boundaries established by their main project. Side projects can later become full time endeavours, but should not be confused with quitting a band for a solo career or another band. Overview One example of music al side projects is Kiss band Kiss s decision in 1978 to have each member of the band, Gene Simmons , Paul Stanley , Ace Frehley and Peter Criss , simultaneously release solo albums. In 1992, The Melvins released solo Extended play EP s in a similar fashion. Side project may also refer to pursuits of famous individuals outside of their primary fields. For instance, Wicked Wisdom is a side project of actress Jada Pinkett Smith . Side projects often occur at a crossroads of a celebrity s career. A side project can also be a band that takes on an alter ego , usually in order to play a different style of music that their fans are not used to. An example of this type of side project would be the band Weezer , who is also the Nirvana band Nirvana cover band Goat Punishment.

unreferenced date April 2008 A no call, no show is an absence from the workforce without notifying the employer. This form of absence is typically considered inconsiderate and very unprofessional. When workers miss work, especially in jobs where one s workload would need to be substituted for the day teachers, cashiers, servers, etc. , it is generally expected that they call in advance to warn of his her absence so that their workload can be completed by the present workers. Many businesses have forms of punishments as a result of no call, no shows such as counseling statements , suspension punishment suspension , and possibly firing termination of employment . There are various reasons why a no call, no show occurs Sometimes, an employee who does not show up to work without reporting is quitting the job, but does so by abandoning their position and discontinuing all further communications with the employer. There are times, however, when a no call, no show is not preventable, such as when an employee is suffering a medical emergency and is unable to communicate with the employer. An employer is more likely to excuse such an absence if the employee has a good prior attendance record and or supplies satisfactory documentation of the unexpected nature of the situation such as paperwork from an ambulance or hospital . In some cases, the employee does report the absence to the employer, but the employer fails to receive the communication. It can be also construed that the employee simply wants to take the day off despite the risk of any disciplinary action that might be taken in this situation and does not want to deal with any possible hassling questions from the employer. In retail positions, there are often scheduling inconsistencies in which employees believes that they are working a different shift that day or for that matter, working an entirely different day instead of the one scheduled. Some employers consider this a form of no call, no show. Employment Category ... more details
