Good for you (erm, considering it was for the right reasons). We had this silly cow working here last year, she had umpteen days off sick due to her pregnancy (she wasn't even visibly pregnant at this time). She bored us all to tears about her swollen ankles, appetite, stretch marks and didn't do any proper work due to her condition.
You're a bastard, but ya alright!
The questions are:
Three no's equals an extra beer tonight. Any yes's and maybe it should be a large scotch and a little think!

For once I think he's right and all.
You can't get away with being a twat just cos yer a bloody breeder.
(assuming she WAS being a twat...see OldMonkey's Q's)
The problem is her attendance and punctuality is poor, at best. She isnt the best at her job, far from it. She provokes the other members of staff with her constant moaning about everything. Believe it or not, she's worse than me on the moaning front!

Liam, I could never believe that. Besides, you have a reputation to uphold!
How far pregnant is she? And has the punctuality, attendance and performance gone downhill since she became pregnant?
I had a similar situation myself a few months back, which was complicated by the fact that the pregnant colleague was a good friend. Being objective wasn't easy.

No offence, Liam. By why the fcuk have you mentioned this here?!
Actually, no, I really didn't mean, 'no offence'. What exactly are you trying to prove? Is this showing off in some way cos maybe I'm missing the point?

Do you talk about ANYTHING apart from yourself?
No offence taken.
I'm just really bored at work. And most people think i'm a twat anyway, so might as well prove their point.

I bet you'd be bored if YOUR boss saw this thread! Better hope no-one who works there reads it and passes a link on.
Its a pity the lass didn't give you a red of Ulster across your bake Liam. You would have deserved it at least :)

No, because I dont assume who she votes for, nor would I judge a person on it.

Or is it because she calls them "THE Editors"?

Managing people is always nasty business, but someone's got to handle it. If she's been underperforming, and is generally not kicking in her bit to the workforce, regardless of her status it's time for her to pack it in. I'm relatively sure if it'd been a guy being that stupid with it all, the result woudl be the same for you, right?
I have you possibly one uppped on this - a guy I laid off a few years back was mentally ill and he was suck at his job on the floor. Not just a poor performer, but always late, always rude to customers, and his till was always over or under.
I laid him off, he killed himself. Figures he'd do one job right. ![]()
If that was a half naked bloke it would be against communtiy standards.
It's fine as it is.
Yer not GAY as well as pregnant are you?

Not that bastard ! You wait the following day of the International Women Day. You are a real British gentleman, in fact...

The question is whether her attendance and punctuality issues are related to her pregnancy or not.

Perhaps we should trade. You can hit on my best mate (she's married now, but that won't stop me from making the offer*), and I, in return, can hit on your best mate. Deal? :D
*She'll kill me for suggesting it, but she's gonna kill me over something or other anyway, so I might as well go out with a smile on my face. :D
