Re: had to fire a guy today....ugh...
First, to Mark42, easy on the generalizations. be t90% on this forum couldn't last a week in my wife's state job. She takes care of disabled children in school. You'll be gone after the first time you change a 7 year old's diaper. The one man that did work there lasted 2 weeks.
Back on subject, document, document, document, talk with lawyer, document.
I had a guy working for me and he just quit coming to work. Quit coming to work. Tried to get him to come in for 2 weeks (he had passwords we needed). He would not come. HR notified him he had abandoned his position. This was actually covered in the employee handbook he signed. Well the Federal judge saw it his way. Apparently the only recourse we had for his failure to tell us he was quitting was to ask him to tell us he planned to quit.
When an employee sues for wrongful termination how many on the jury are people that don't work themselves? There's a bit of irony.
