Did he try to transfer? Or did he procrastinate or blow off your suggestion? Tashmere Send a noteboard - 21/10/2009 03:39:57 AM
Either way it sounds like he had warning. And it sounds like he didn't have whatever it is that is needed for this job. It it wasn't a good match. Hopefully this will be a end up being some type of mercy for him and he will somehow end up in a job that he fits in. Something he can be happy and secure in. You did what you could for him. I am sorry that you had to do something so unpleasant. Just saying that sometimes the crappy things in life turn out to be the best things that have happened to us. Let's hope that is true in his case.

Sincerely,
Tash

Where I work you have to use your sick leave and annual leave to cover maternity leave. Tashmere - 20/10/2009 01:26:34 AM 581 Views
Same with my job... Antigone - 20/10/2009 01:56:00 AM 579 Views

That's why it's an employer and not a social worker... Antigone - 20/10/2009 09:58:00 PM 631 Views
