I didn't want to do it this way.
At work we are having some problems getting 2 people to come to work and work at work(bizzar concept i know). i have always known that once people start neglecting work it just gets worse from there, but while i was on vacation the shit hit the fan. this is how the conversation went and i'm pretty much quoting here
me:you can probably leave now since "..." is here
employee: i'm staying until 2 for "other employee"
me: i can stay i really need to get some work done and you are just reading your book and since i'm constructively working i will stay
employee: what ever
me: i'm really not okay with your work ethic being so poor and reading on the clock
employee: newsflash i don't think you are my boss
me: i'm pretty sure i am but i can have you talk to the doctor if you want
employee: well when the doctor tells me to stop reading i will (said angerly and looking down at her book)
***phone rings i answer it, she walks away gets her dog and clocks out***
i really didn't want this to happen that way. i really just wanted her to figure out we are hiring 2 people and get her act together. we are a very non-confrontational company but i can only keep quite for so long. now i'm frustrated with the whole situation..... blah
