Dude, that doesn't knock you out? I'm gonna have to take it easy since I'm driving to Maine right after dinner. Don't need to be nodding off on the way up.

Back from my Dentist appointment $150 poorer..just a cleaning/exam/x-rays-just the mouth one..not the fancy 18 picture one..everything went well and all the tarter was scrapped off of my permanent lower retainer...all was well no cavaties or anything. I did hear the words "Root Canal" and "Extraction" in the next exam room over...cha ching..

Most likely it was "root canal" OR "extraction" One is Cha-Ching(root canal) the other is usually a little less than what you paid for your cleaning today

just got off the phone with one of the guys i work with and it looks like he has bronchitis. then i called another person and they have the same symptoms. i called my doctor and he said i could come in first thing in the morrning. he said there is a bunch going around. its not looking to good. i am starting to get really bummed that this is going to screw up my plans for VT. i will have to see and what the doc says. this sucks.

Employee Update

Well, I've had a really busy day of con-calls and other bs occupying my time today and I wanted to post a follow up to the issue I had back on Nov 3rd where one of my employees was a no-show for 2 days, then called out a 3rd day.

Believe it or not, this motherfunker pulled the same sh!t today!!!:angry:

I'm so friggin disappointed about this. This is no idiot, in fact my boss even commented about how smart he is and couldn't believe it either. I've given him every opportunity to succeed and then some. He just bought his first house a few months ago and he's completely writing his ticket out the door with this behavior.

If he shows up tomorrow, it's going to be mandatory psych counseling (which is covered under our benefits) and a final written warning.

If he doesn't, my boss is going to recommend we let him go.

Sucks. I need to ski. Thanks for "listening" ;-)

Wow, that really does suck. Sorry you're going through this, Root.

Right now, NCIS on in the background, snuggled up under the down comforter.

your kidding right. psych counseling ha. i had a guy doing a job in midtown three days after he is supossed to be on site i get a call from the GC asking me where he is i call the kid for 10 hours straight no answer. the next morning when im on the site at 6 am to do what he was suppossed to do(i had to be done by 10 because i had a show) he calls and asks me why im freaking out. needless to say he got shitcanned on the spot. i felt bad because he was going through some shit but i can have my guys making me looking bad with clients. i expect a phone call at the min.

Right now checking out fannypacks online..there are so many to choose from..thinking of hitting up a local mini-mart for icecream...Stoke level is high..time to post in the temperature thread..doh!!!

 

[Warp Daddy]

By his behavior this guy has FIRED himself .
Who is DOING the suffering here ?

Cut him loose YOU WILL BE DOING HIM A FAVOR .
He obviously has NO interest in your organization .
Perhaps he can "FIND" himself elsewhere

I'm gonna say times two..people bust ass to keep their job and this guy seems like about the most inconsiderate person. Sometimes people are so sick and are up all night vomiting but they at least call their boss to explain that they're not in a productive state. Most people that pull that kind of stuff lose their job unless they are a true genius..the fact that everybody else has to pick up his slack is just horrible for morale..just my 2 cents..

Yeah, you would think with the layoff going on right now, this wouldn't be an issue.

He prolly needs to pow wow with the Bobs.

If I owned the company, this wouldn't be an issue, he'd be done. But with 80,000 employees, there's a whole HR process that needs to happen.

Dreading calling a customer to tell him he has to pay up front tomorrow if he wants his order. I'll probably get yelled at. It's not my fault you don't pay your bills on time and are too lazy and stubborn to take the time to call our credit department who are very reasonable, if you EFFIN' CALL

Surfin news, weather, emails, sippin a B&B, waitin for the sun to come up.

Tough that you have to do this no doubt -- its a PIA ---

. You DO your job well then this slug drops the ball and the fun begins --- Kill the BASTID with kindness it'll lay a guilt trip on HIM( if he has a conscience) which he richly deserves

ya i hate the no more credit call. funny thing is before i make that call i call my vendors and competitors to let them know. so when the go "we'll ill just take my biz elsewhere" its all covered. i love it when the come back at the very last min after they tried everyone else and no one would sell to him. plus at that point i end up charging more because its some sorta rush.
