People arriving over an hour late for work without an apology or explanation.

Two dolls at work decided yesterday that they would walk in this morning. they arrive over an hour late thinking they are great for spending an hour walking in. The knew yesterday they were going to walk yet they intentionally left home only 5mins before starting time. They thought the fact that they walked justified them being late. No attempt to let us know they were late and no apology to their colleagues.

They then claimed it was too cold to stay and should be let home. I took the temp on one girl's desk and it was 15.5. She said that if it's under 16 she should be allowed home. I said I would put could move the probe closer to the heater to get whatever temp i want. She shut up.

That sort of bullshit justification grinds my gears >:( >:(

Doesnt sound like a great workplace environment zap.

People always want that extra inch - when the reality is we should all be fecking lucky to be in work at the minute.

When it was taking us an hour to get to work instead of 10 minutes because of the roads before christmas - we left an hour fecking earlier.


Id never dream of telling my boss that I should be sent home on some technicality, first because its wrong - but secondly, you can guarandamntee that when the next round of layoffs comes around, that kind of attitude wouldnt be forgotten.

You have your own business Zap?

Naw. The boss didn't make it as he lives on a mountain (he told me lastnight he wouldn't be in) and they thought this was an oppertunity to bluff.

Spot on Puckoon. I'm happy with my work and workplace though.
