Heard on the radio that Tenet was moving downtown because they hoped to attract diverse contemporary employees. What is a contemporary employee?

You know someone alive in the present day. I'm told that their policy of employing only Historical employees lead to very high absenteeism, and low productivity. On the other hand since the employees were long dead the health care costs were minimal.

The address a person or business uses is decided by the post office. For example, I have a relative who live in the separate incorporated town of Widefield, Colorado, just south of Colorado Springs, the post office doesn't recognize Widefield though and says to put colorado springs as the city instead of Widefield. I imagine it's much the same here with cities like Farmer's branch, or even HP or UP.

True.
My wifes parents live in North Richland Hills, have a Fort Worth Address, and my wife went to Haltom High School in Haltom city, which is in the Birdville ISD.

Exactly smuboy86! It's all in the zipcode and the post office doesn't care about privilege and identity issues. There is a difference between a city and an area. I can't give examples of Dallas but I am assuming that HP and UP are still within the Dallas city limits. To the post office you all live in Dallas!

Tenet will be moving into Fountain Place on 1445 Ross Ave. They announced it downstairs in the lobby yesterday afternoon. Approximately 500 new workers will be part of this transition and should be completed by the end of 2009.

Are these 500 new employees for the region? Or are they consolidating from other local offices?
