I have an employee that is constantly telling me that he is suffering from power outages in that area and thats why he can not get to work on time. His alarm is constantly getting reset by these outages. So if you live in the area did you have an outage last night?

I live in Oak Park which is about 5-10 minutes from Camarillo and that area and no power outage here last night, my husband works for a water company and if the power goes out at anytime he is called out to turn a booster on to keep the water flowing while the power is out and to tell you the truth he never got called out last night. I don't want to get your employee in trouble but not last night.
We do get alot of them though and have had a few recently over the last couple weeks maybe 2 of them.

I have dealt with this or half a dozen times now. I have even told him to get a battery alarm clock, set his cell phone alarm and so on. Hell even last night my power went out and guess what, I still made it to work on time! Im done giving chances!

Shawn never a good situation :argue: an employee needs to be responsible. Part of that is being ontime, one thing I never understand is how an employee tries to turn it around like it is your problem they cannot follow policy, one like being ontime for work :yuk: DUH
they make it tough on the rest of the people wondering when or if they will even show up. Knowing they will have to do their work plus pick up for the person missing.
Good Luck :wink:
