I had exactly the same issue recently. Was taken into a room for a "chat" about my time keeping because I came in the office at 10:15 one day. My daughter was ill. It was also mentioned that I'm in the internet and on a contractor website looking for other jobs. Even I'm not that stupid. My manager couldn't give a toss but had to have the chat worth me because Permie X is watching me like a hawk.Comment
