Morning ya'll.


Dealing with an employee who decided he dictates the hours in his shift. Client decided to restructure when they want security at that site (used to be 2 shifts, a swing and a grave, per day with 24 hour coverage on Sundays). Starting this week, they cut out everything but the graves, and modified the shift (used to be 11p-6a. Now it's 10p-6a).

He argued with me about it over the phone on Friday, and then sent me a text on Saturday sayin "Hey boss I'm not going to be going in at 10p on Fridays lets keep it at 11p thanks"

Really? I explained that I have no say so in the shift. Neither does the owner of the company (whom I am keeping in the loop with all of this.)

Some people....

What did you do?   I would have texted back "Not your call, not my call.  Customer's call.   See you at 10p on Fridays, or not at all thanks."

And when he was late I'd have a counseling ready and tell him he will show up at this time. He has no say.

Yea, got to admit it takes some balls to tell the boss what time you are showing up, but the guy shouldn't expect to have a job if that's the way he acts.

Cram, King, there's some of that in my response.  Right now, it's "I'll be there at 11".  Next time it's "I'm taking lunch now".   Next time after that it's "I can't come in on that holiday, we're having it at my house".   It'll never end.  Then, it'll be the other guy that this guy talks to at break.  Fuck it, if the first guy can get away with it, so can I!

I pulled him off that shift all together.
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

BLOB!

Just working.

Someone hacked into one of our camera servers and overlaid "CUNTS" and "YOU GOT HACKED" on some of the cameras.


It's funny, but really annoying.

:lol Yeah, about how I'd describe it. Are they going to upgrade the security so they can't do that again?

There's only one employee we've had, whom actually came BACK to work for me when I got promoted, who would have the skills to do this. And I know for sure that it wasn't him.  According to the camera/IT guys, it looks like it was a random attack, and they've seen it a lot lately.
