Ah, but I just updated and it seems to work OK with R 3.1.2:

Random effects:
  Groups Name        Variance Std.Dev.
  groups (Intercept) 0.03334  0.1826
Number of obs: 891, groups:  groups, 140

Fixed effects:
              Estimate Std. Error z value Pr(>|z|)
(Intercept)  0.721329   0.326635   2.208   0.0272 *
EMP          0.001841   0.004444   0.414   0.6787
WAGE        -0.052298   0.013335  -3.922 8.79e-05 ***
