That woman! I just want to shove her into a wall of lightbulbs! And *you* rubbed her back????? Did I read that correctly? How could you?!!!! I could just pinch you for that!

Today she calls in and says that she would be in 3 1/2 hours late because she had ORIENTATION at WalMart...????? WHAT????

I got 3 calls last night from our broadcast facility that she had NOT dropped off 2 very important tapes, one that was supposed to air last night...
I had to find replacements (note, I was in my pajamas) and fix the placements over the phone...

Also one of our ministries was missing and she sent them an email about how it was rejected a week before! Then WHY, Dear Lord, was it still on the program log??????

I'm giving her two weeks... then I am THROUGH. WalMart can HAVE HER!!! (that was also a quote from our VP!)

I can't believe that with the list you already have that this is not enought to get her out. She is asking you to fire her. Oblige her and get on with it. Your good workers deserve better.

My piece of advice is this. Remember - Business is business and shouldn't be personal - no matter how hard she trys to make you feel sorry for her. You aren't in control of her personal situations but you are in charge of your department. It's not your problem that she can't handle her personal finances....and at her age, you'd think she would be able to. Keep up what you are doing by recording everything and building a case for HR. I think you already have enough information to let her go. Good Luck!

Believe me if it were up to me she'd be GONE!! Unfortunately we have to find a replacement first and I have 4 people from my old job who I'm talking to. It's just a matter of time....

It's funny, I'm looking to replace my employee who's not pulling his weight before I get rid of him, too. He's just not about drama like your troubled one is.

Here's to both of us finding replacements quickly.
