Today I am restraining myself from going ballistic
Staffing issues - yesterday someone failed to turn up for work until 11.45. Latest he is allowed to get in is 10 o clock. This is the bloke that was sacked and reinstated on appeal
His boss is not in this week so I was asked to have 'a word' - so ask him what his excuse is. " Well I'm not like the rest of you lot I don't have anyone to wake me up in the morning" .
Oh no you didn't just say that I thinks
He says he will put in a leave request and take the morning off as leave . Then he asks to have Thursday off as well.
Not a chance I say as we are short staffed this week due to it being Easter .
" But I feel stressed and need a break"
Give me strength today someone because I really do feel capable of murder.
So I have recommended disciplinary on AWOL - not that bleeding HR or Councillors will want to take the matter up as he will claim he is being bullied by management.
