I think it's a clear cut case of what happens to a place when there's no vicious uncontrolled hazing. You need that to get rid of the dead wood.

That, or subject him to vicious uncontrolled hazing. Or, both.

Have you considered sleeping with his wife? It doesn't solve anything but it would add insult to injury once you fire him. Make sure to take lots of pictures, grainy ones if she isn't attractive.

Good point. Hey HoH, think of it this way; if the guy's costing you money and aggrivation, might as well get some fun out of it. You've got him by the short-curlies. Enjoy!

Better yet, tell him his job depends on how good she is and what she'll do.

Even better, don't 'sleep' with her while you're at it, if you know what I mean. Wink, wink.

I wouldn't force carnal knowledge with his nasty ass wife on anyone. Gives me the willies.

You know me better than that, do you really think I don't unleash on this pud with fury of righteous indignation? However, he seems to have developed an immunity to my horrible wrath. I have varied my approach in an effort to get through the shield of stupidity with minimal success. I suspect a cattle prod to the testicles may be the best solution... at least, I'll feel better.

misusing the corporate card ... can't repay it back? won't you get in trouble for this hire? whose going to cover for you when this criminal act gets revealed? even if this is your son-in-law, you better watch out for number one.

For God's sake, Heck, your testicles are the most fun you ever get with yourself: don't take those away from your otherwise miserable life!

It's thinking about what Hand does with the car battery clips on his nipples that really bother me more than the cattle prod.

I've seen pictures on the internet of Heck's nips. He needs a marine battery for those 'silver dollar' babies.

I'm appropriately covered by following our disciplinary action protocol and advising our HR department. As it is his card, corporate or not, he is financially responsible for it. American Express has no sense of humor and will castrate him if he does not pay them in a timely manner. Plus, I will still expect him to make purchase, pay for hotels, and cover other expenses regardless of whether or not they cut him off. He'll be sleeping in a box under an overpass on his next field job at this rate.

It is embarassing though. Each new hire is a refelection on the person that hired him/her. Over and over I am surprised at how many people blow off and/or take for granted their opportunities as if they have infinite second chances. For example, my secratary is out for the week and I've gone through three temps as I can't find one that will show up two days in a row. Damn loser slackers....

I guess I can't blame the loser slacker mentality prevalent in the US, it is, afterall, the American Dream to be live life in a potato like state where all your needs are easily met. Damn potatoes... I need to hire some Mexicans, those SOB's know how to work.

one thing about credit card companies, they do have a high assumed charge-off rate for non-payers. just the normal course of business to expect 10% of card usage to be never repaid. of course, card companies do make a huge margin, probably in the 10-to-12% range.
