A DD report was due soon and I had arranged with a 3rd year associate to discuss his portion of the report from 10.30am. I waited, no one came. At 10.50, I dropped him an e-mail (well, I knew he was probably at home sleeping and therefore no point calling him).
His secretary calls a minute later and says, "Do you REALLY have an appointment with him?"
!!!????
Of course, it was tempting to say, no, I just do it for the fun of it and check out reactions. But that would surely be lost on her.
It's just like associates calling our desks at 11pm to say, "Are you busy?". No, I like sitting at my desk late at night.
Anyway, back to that associate. He was indeed sleeping at home and according to his secretery, he normally comes in at noon. Then why agree to a 10.30 meeting? He did finally come in to the office just before 1pm.
Did I mention before more discipline in my office is needed?
