lol :D

Sorry I couldn't even remember when I last replied to this thread. The newbie is gone.

Hilariously, my girlfriend had written the 'official' letter saying that they had to meet to discuss the results of her probation period - in which newbie was going to be sacked. She was ready to send it that Monday morning I think it was, with the meeting already arranged for the Thurs where the deed was to be done. But the newbie resigned that day. Said their "circumstances had changed" and it was no longer possible to continue. This was about a month ago. Absolutely massive sigh of relief for my girlfriend. She really thought the newbie would be difficult to get rid of, play the victim etc. (particularly with the death in the family). So yeah, thank the lord. We had some champagne that day, lol :o

Came in, caused six months of unfairness against others, leaves before action is taken against their employment.

In one hand, congrats to her for getting in and out and not paying a fortune for travel.
On the other, this story is just a horror novel on the risks of hiring people.

Hope the champagne was nice!
