When I worked for a City finance company, I had a young guy work for me who used to go out in the evening, get falling-down drunk and usually haul himself into work around 2 hours late, usually in the same clothes and stinking to high heaven (don't ask me what he smelled of - trust me, you don't wanna know ) When he did this, I usually bollocked him and reported the issue to HR. Anyways, he'd been with the company about 6 weeks in total and had been in late every day except the first one. One day it got to noon and he still hadn't turned in. I called down to HR and asked them to set up an interview with him. When he finally came to work, about 2pm (in his usual dishevelled state) he was taken straight to HR...and made a complaint about me! Apparently he drank because I was so mean and horrible to him, and he didn't go to work until very late that day because he knew I'd bollock him again, so he stayed away as long as he could. Then his conscience wouldn't let him take any more time off so he came to work. Still in last night's clothes (which he'd actually been wearing about 3 days) and stinking. He then had the temerity to say that he should be praised for eventually coming in, even though he was scared of me! Needless to say, he was shown the door. Thank goodness for probationary periods Skeery bunny
