People who CANNOT be on time!
I work with someone who feels that our director's somewhat lax attitude toward timeliness means that she can show up to work around 9 and leave well before 5. To put that in perspective, a few co-workers and I get to work by 7:30 and leave no earlier than 4:00. Said co-worker was reported in the past for the hours that she kept. And for a while she was showing up around 8:30 and leaving around 5:00. Then we got busy and our director was often out of the office for early or late meetings. And that soon led to this co-worker going back to her 9 to about 4:30 schedule.
Yesterday, she got COMPLETELY busted when she strolled into the office around 8:50 - 20 minutes after our all-staff meeting began. And it was brought to the director's attention that this was not a unique occurance.
So, she was counselled AGAIN about this issue. I sincerely hope that this is going on record somewhere and that it hurts her annual review. Because she and I have the same title and were bumped to the bottom of a new pay-scale at the same time... which means that I make just as much money as she does! And considering that I work anywhere from 2.5 - 5 hours longer than her in a given week, that's not cool!
Moral of the story... timeliness matters!
