Mark Connolly Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I'm convinced ICTChris is working in my office, but a year behind. We went through exactly the same shit until the net finally closed on the sneaky c**t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 One of my colleagues gave him a solid bollocking for this sort of thing a few months back and he made a formal complaint to our manager about it. Management are well aware of all this and measures are being taken. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priti priti priti Patel Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Friend of mine is a Partner at a wee law firms in suburban London. They are quite well respected in their practice areas but being located out of the city centre they do struggle for good people. Earlier in the year she interviewed a lad who was an Oxbridge grad, had worked at some great firms, and was looking for a job there. They offered him a role and he accepted. Her words to me were, "there must be a reason he's coming here, maybe he's a nutter, but we've made an offer and we'll have to find out". Two days later he made the press: https://www.rollonfriday.com/news-content/solicitor-who-told-date-he-fked-her-punishment-being-fat-arrested-work 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 13 hours ago, ICTChris said: Got a phone call from workshy at the end of the day asking me to pick up his work for him tomorrow as he is on leave. Said I couldn’t do it as I am busy tomorrow morning so he said he’d phone another colleague, about two minutes later he posted in our team channel that he’d Done a verbal handover to me and someone else. I spoke to him for less than two minutes. He obvsiouky needs the day off, tough life constantly dodging work. Maybe he’s got a spa day booked. This boy is my hero. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsr Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 20 hours ago, GordonD said: When we were preparing for a major computer upgrade we were working unusually late one night and the cleaning guy came in and started wiping the desks round the stuff we had lying there. To be fair he wasn't the brightest of guys and wasn't sure how to deal with people occupying desks he cleaned when they were empty. We told him not to bother and he thought he'd been given a row, so went off to tell his boss. She came in to defend him but we explained we hadn't been having a go at him. Must have got through though because he only cleaned the vacant desks after that. Many places I've worked at have had the cleaners come in during the working day. Maybe they charge more to come in outside of office hours. It's always fun trying to work on some deadline with a hoover droning away behind me or my desk randomly being sprayed and wiped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should point out that I was talking about seven in the evening, not nearly midnight. This was unusually late for us as the flextime day normally ended at half past six so nobody was normally in the office after that but we were on a special project getting ready for the rollout of a new computer system so when the cleaners came in they weren't expecting to find us still there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My experience of IT rollouts suggest you should have let the cleaner do it while you mopped the bogs. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours regularly arrive in the early afternoon and expect us to take everything off our desks (unimportant stuff like laptops, that sort of thing) while they clean. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't hand it over to me, it's all our team who get it. Management are aware of his behaviour. He's been spoken to several times about it and I'm fairly certain he's being performance managed. One complicating factor is that he is useless at his job so we frequently have to take over his work because he can't do it. A couple of months ago I was asked by management to 'help' on something and that involved taking it over and doing it all. I don't mind it though, I enjoy doing work and it was quite an interesting one. However, workshy colleague does not like doing this sort of work, despite this being our primary function and what we are paid for. He openly says that he hates doing it. It's like applying for a job as a gardener and then moaning like f**k when you have to spend time in gardens. He literally hates doing the thing in his job title. It's bizarre and his negative attitude is really wearing and has a drag affect on the team. However, everyone moaning about him and complaining about his bullshit does galvanise everyone else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
