Well I just had to share this one. I know I have not been on Mylot too often these days because of work pressure,studying, choir practice for our annual convocation and paying attention to my lovely girl( whom I love to bits). Well we share office space with another Unit and I just could not help but overhear several conversations and the attitude of a temporary person who was asked to sit because an officer was attending classes for four days of the week over a six week period. First, when she walked it I said to myself "Well, .... has her hands full with this one". Her attitude how she spoke to her supervisor, how she spoke about her supervisor infront of her and how she totally behaved had me literally feelign sick to my stomach and disgusted. I have seen and herd people behaving in ways that are terrible but not to disrespect the supervisor to her face! Then she planned with her friends from the Unit she belonged to so that she could return there but her supervisor complained to the Head of the Unit and she had to return immediately. Now he was really upset and was verbal aboutit and said that we are hear to train and groom each other and what leader would he be if he allowed her to be dictating what she wanted and get away with it. Oh she was also insinuating that her supervisor had nothing to do and could monitor both desks, I was so upset. NOw if it so happens that whenever I finish my course and I have been promoted as a paralegal and needed someone and she was sent my personnel her I would not want her. I belive in giving people all the chances they need in life to make themselves better because I need those chances from you all too but when you are not willing to see yourself and humble yourself and take time to grrom and learn - I cannot help you!. You will have to want to be helped and willing to help yourself first. I know you guys are outspoken and honest. Am I coming down too heavy on her. Note though I never said anything to her and I treat her with the respect I give all workers.
