ZERO Tolerance

...for stupidity.

So this high school assistant...ugh. First problem: she makes her own hours. She calls all the time to say she's not coming this day, but she'll be here on that day and then she ends up calling in sick anyway.

Main problem: She is USELESS in the office! I gave her the simplest of simple office tasks yesterday and she completely screwed it up. I have, in my filing cabinet, some quality files. There are "obsolete" folders for 2004, 2005 & 2006 in there and in each of those is a sub-set of folders for obsolete drawings, processes, etc. All I asked her to do is make a 2007 file. Sounds simple enough, right? Guess not... She took the 2006 file, re-labeled the process folder to simply, "2006" and put a new "2006 obsolete drawings" folder into the already present obsolete drawings folder and then put the 2007 stuff into those folders. Seriously, what the hell? I'm surprised this girl can write her own name. This is not the first time she's done something like this. We don't give her important stuff anymore because she can't be trusted. I thought this was a easy enough task that there was no way she was going to mess up.

I'm not even going to give her anything to do anymore, I'll just send her back to help in packaging, at least that is something she is capable of doing. Put part in bag, label bag, put bag in box, tape shut. Although, she has mis-labeled parts. Why is she still here? She is the best friend of the owner's neice who, coincidentally, works here also.
