I a had woman working on my team while doing state work in their main office, which was and still is a great and well run agency. She called in one morning, said she was quite ill, gave an academy award winning performance too. The only problem was that the furniture company called the office first, said they'd be delivering at 9am!

I had to deal with her. She was many years my senior then, quite miffed I called her out on it, she tried to take it to someone she thought was above me, I backed him off too. I'll run my ship the way I see fit. I just about fired her regardless. I gave her the ultimatum about the position, show up do the work, everything is fine, become a problem, terminated. She was on the phone constantly with her husband or troublesome teenage girls, and playing games on the computer, thankfully the internet was not connected, all within earshot of other state employees who had a much better work ethic. That was all put to a stop, some people have no clue about work ethics. I could not have this on my team, my reputation was at stake with the agency, no way I'd let this happen. Scorned was not a strong enough word given how she reacted to the straight up to the point ultimatum, but I was wrong for busting her on lying, LOL ! I stood my ground with the person she went to, she thought was over my head, I said push your luck and I'll have his job too ! Heck at the end of the project he was thrown off by a state directors rep anyways, took some team members and went golfing on company time, job was substantially complete, but not 100%, the state did not appreciate that one bit. You had best know who is in your corner when you pull crap like this.
