i agree with the guy above me. unless.., do you live in florida? because here we have an at will relationship with employees. you could fire her for coming into work without bringing you a smoothe if you want.\n\nso i think, because she is completly manipulative, and bad at it or else she wouldnt have gotten caught so easily, you should tranfer her to florida and fire her a**. \n\nif you cant transfer her then go with what the other guy said.

Yeah, why not....I mean being around an @sshole today is the last thing you need especially if you're not in a good mood.....and then when he fires you, you'll have a reason to get another job which you've been wondering about lately....

You are probley too nice. Show them you wont take anymore mess in a way that wont get you fired.Call off a couple of times. If they feel you are a valued employee they should cut you some slack. If not quit.

I would have a quiet word with her manager, presuming he is not the offending party. If he is then I would go to the person above him. You need not go into details, just say that you have been told in confidence that that man had wandering hands and that younger females of staff resented his approach. Say that you feel that the problem needs addressing as it could get the firm in hot water for not protecting their female staff but it is not up to you to deal with the situation as it is not in your department.

I think it is because customer service oriented jobs are being performed by the couch potato generation.  They think they are doing us a favor by being there.  Labor laws protect the employee but not the employer.  It is hard to weed out the individuals that are lazy.  It's not like the days when somebody could be fired on the spot.  Now there is so much red tape to terminate somebody.  I feel your pain though.  I have a hard time having to bag my own groceries after putting in a ten hour day!  I voice my opinion by making a copy of my receipt and mailing it to the business owner or manager with my complaint.  This way; they know exactly who the individual was, what time and date the incident occurred, and what my issues were.  Most of the time I get a letter explaining that the problem is being addressed.  Sometimes, the individual puts two and two together and is much more pleasant to me the next time I pay the place of business a visit.

Fireing a person is never easy althought George Jettsons boss sure makes it look easy.  If he is hindering progress, not doing what he is supposed to be doing or what ever then you should.  Its part of your job perameters.  If you dont do it then other employee's will see you as soft and you boss might see you as incompetant.

I think we have all been there.\n\nI have a co-worker that just cannot accept responsibility when she screws up.  It's maddening.\n\nSo.....I went onto MSN and found an article about working with difficult people, it described her to a "T" and I typed up a label and mailed it to her.\n\nShe was furious but it brought the issue into the open as she was trying to find out who did it and therefore we were able to discuss WHY someone would do that.  We also made her "put the shoe on the other foot" and think of how she would feel if she had to work with someone that treated her co-workers the way that she did.\n\nShe's still difficult and a witch most of the time but at least she thinks about her actions a little more.\n\nGood luck, there's one at every workplace.

Yes he can. An at-will employee can be fired for any reason or no reason at all.[1]\nThe only exception are discrimination laws. So If you co-worker did not like you because you are black you can sue.\nBut if the co-worker did not like because you had bad work ethics, or were obnoxious, or even if he did not like the way you look  it is fine to fire you.

I'd find another job and lose the "friend".  Life's too short to seek revenge.

True, it is not fair and we hate working with people who are so full of BS, especially when we come to work every day, because we want to do the "right thing'.\n\nHowever...........I was told something many years ago by a manager, that I will never forget and will share with you right now..........\n\nYou worry about you and not what every one else is doing or not doing for that matter. Make sure you come to work when you are supposed to and do the best job that YOU possibly can do. \n\nWhat your co-worker is doing is not going unoticed and what you are doing is not going unoticed. Let's see how long your co-worker will be employed versus you.

I  Know  exactly  how you  feel....my  husband  has the  same  feeling  at  his  work....people  are straight  out LAZY.....and  the  least  mistakes  you  made....they're the  ones  to  make  the  big  deal. And  then  the  good had  to  suffer  for  the  bad....they  should  be  fire  without  pay.\nAll  The  Best And Good  Luck

If your employer has an ounce of compassion and decency you shouldn't!\n\nSorry for your lose!
