So it's been about a month exactly that i've been at this job. Love my coworkers, EXCEPT ONE!
I work for a law firm. Most people know that's a pretty conservative environment.
This kid has not had a haircut in a year at least. It's long, unruly, and curly. His clothes are always wrinkled. He buys most of them at Goodwill. Not knocking GW, but you don't buy work clothes there. He was wearing a suit yesterday that was huge on him. Note: he is not shopping there b/c he's poor. He has a very expensive IPod and was talking about getting another one!
He is either stupid or think none of the rules apply to him. We were told very clearly first day: no talking on your cell phone. He does all the time. We're not supposed to type our own assignments, we're supposed to dictate and the secretaries type them (they have macros and stuff for the formatting). He hasn't dictated yet.
He leaves for long periods of time. Just disappears.
He left early when our boss wasn't here last Friday. Left at 2:30. Signed out as 3:30. That same day he has asked me to help him with an assignment b/c he had something else that was due that day too. Came in late yesterday (almost 10:30), signed in as 9:45. So he's lying about his time... wonder what his timesheet looks like. Again, it was very clear when we started we were to be there from 9-5
We went to the attorney's meeting Wed. He came in late. HUGE ass bags under his eyes. Looked like he just got off a long-weekend bender.
It's getting REALLY REALLY frustrating to myself and the other law clerks. It's putting more work on us. And none of us just waltz out for a few hours. While we don't want to be tattletales, it really really bugs us and is making the work environment tense. The boss doesn't check in on us much. We don't want to go running to him, so we're trying to slip in comments here and there. When the coworker was late for the meeting and I was asked where he was, i just said "i don't know, he hasn't been around for awhile".
ARGH. Maybe i'll have a few drinks at happy hour and then blame it on the alcohol that I told the boss how irked we all are.
