Well, Monday came around damn fast, didn't it?  One minute I am gleefully playing computer games on face book in the comfort of my own home and the next I am playing facebook computer games at work.  As the main support of my family, this is indeed my cross to bear. 

Sigh...

There seems to be lots of whispering around the ole office today regarding my special snowflake employee that supposedly quit last week.  He is here today but I am not sure if he is working out his notice or is pretending it all never happened.

Either way I don't give a shit other than the effort it will take to replace him.  I am certain there are many gossipy busy bodies that google property values of their coworkers and patrol the hallways so they don't miss anything beating the pavements looking for work. 

Although I am not so sure there are many grown men that are willing to shout that they ARE QUITTING in front of a patient they recently performed surgery on. 

I'll just do the best I can.

 I would just walk up to his desk and say, "I thought you quit. What are you doing here? SECURITY!!!!" .

Beautiful.

A situation like that happened where my mom works and finally they just called his bluff and when she tried to come back to work they told her that they thought she quit and had her spot filled. LOL.

Send him an email about scheduling an exit interview. That will get to the bottom the issue.

Good gawd! Somewhere along the line I was under the obviously very mistaken impression that PROFESSIONALS didn't act like spoiled children in the workplace when in front of clients/patients/witnesses. What an effin' idiot!!

That is a great idea Karen!

At least he didn't quit halfway through the op.

That would have been much more fun though!!!

Olly said...

Yup, I'm with Karen. Best way to handle it!

I think Karen has something there myself. He is sending me emails today with link of things that are going on in the healthcare community that he thinks may be "helpful" for me to read. As if nothing ever happened. Pussy.

The precious little flower didn't say one word to me today. Im thinking calling a head hunter is in order.
