39. Feeding Him

When I was doing the hiring, I had one guy come in with his wife, and she was pissed off that she had to wait in our lobby and couldn’t sit in on the interview with him. He had aced the phone interview, and just fell apart in the in-person interview, so I’m thinking his wife was feeding him answers, or just some weird sort of confidence booster for him.

40. It Depends

We had an employee that would constantly be 15 minutes late. Always strolled in at 8:15.

So after a conversation with the employee, the supervisor changed her schedule so that her start time was 8:30.

She started coming in at 8:45.

When the supervisor confronted her about this about a week later by saying she was late again, the employee responded by saying that “it depends on which clock you look at” as to whether she was late

There is only 1 clock on the wall in the office and it is controlled by the same server that pushes the time out to the phones and computers…so they all read exactly the same.
