[QUOTE="Lil, post: 709753, member: 17309"] Nooooo....What's weird is anyone giving a rat's patootie that you spent a few bucks on a special apple now and then. Some people. We had a clerk we fired who was eating other people's lunches. Or at least, taking bites of them. That's not why he was fired, and he was only suspected of that - until he was gone and the eating of other people's food stopped, that is. We also had a clerk that was fired for dumping her work in the confidential shred bin instead of doing it! We're a government LEGAL office!!! My favorites though are the people who quit with no notice. One lawyer came in on her first day, 7:45 a.m., and said, "Yeah, I'm sorry, but I took a different job and I won't be working here" and left and went to her other new job. We had one clerk, and older woman, come in and halfway thru her first day, we noticed she was gone. Her purse was gone, no trace of her. She just left at lunch time and never came back - never even called later! Oh! And there was the attorney who apparently had his medication's stop working - I'm not sure what his mental illness is, but he would just put people on hold and leave the building! He left one day and no one could find him for his hearing and he called a bit later from the hospital where he was having himself admitted! Him, I at least felt bad about. He was a nice guy. [/QUOTE]
