Shaking...

I'm so angry, I'm shaking. Just when you think your office is recovering from years of backstabbing crap, and progress is being made toward a teamwork mentality, you find evidence of the exact opposite. Someone is tracking our time to the exact minute. By "our" I mean every secretary in the main office and one in the north suite. However, it's being tracked inaccurately which is poor reporting. If you're going to spy on your coworkers, at least make sure it's honest reporting.

UPDATE: I don't know why I should be surprised. The U.O. is the culprit. Several factors went into this conclusion, including personal appointment information, the nickname the U.O. uses for her coworker, and the formatting of the pages, which she uses to track other things. In fact, I took the pages deliberately and made copies for the other individuals listed on there. I spoke to a woman whom I consider a mentor to get her advice and will be speaking to my supervisor at the next opportune moment that I have. My conclusion is that the U.O. is gathering ammo to use in formal complaint that she's being treated with discrimination based on her illnesses during her pregnancy. The times she lists here for her own arrival at work is ahead of the others she lists for the same, with the exception of mine if I arrive before her (which I usually do - or at least at the same time). She's making herself look good and I can only conclude based on what I've heard her talk about in the past, that she's probably turning to her attorney for advice. She's so full of crap.

I hate that kind of thing and it seems to exist in every office place that I have worked in. But I'm guessing that if they really wanted to see exact times, they could just check computer logs to see when she logged into her system and compare that with the times she said she was there. I had a co-worker who got fired once because it evidently was taking him an hour to log into the computer after he supposedly was coming to work.

During wartime, these types of platoon members sometimes succumbed to unfortunate injuries inflicted during the fog of battle.

Just a suggestion. ;-)
