I'm not so sure about this new minion.
Did Minion call you in a panic and keep saying "why does this keep happening to me?"
Maybe that was just my day yesterday though.
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

She wrote back saying it looks like you have to register on some site to figure it out. OK...so register! I'm not so sure about this new minion.
I would have ask the same, Jesse. If I'm new to a workplace, and not sure about the policy of registering myself to sites in order to check things. Not out of laziness or short sight, but because of information security.

Dear Gud - at least they don't have an old washer on the porch and several junkers up on cinder blocks ... yet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I almost wish she would panic more. Maybe I do need to instill fear!

This is her first office job, so I think it's just not knowing to take the next step.

I guess it's different when it's your boss calling and panicing, huh?

Ha ha, yeah. Ugh.
Oh, minion did register for the site, and as me, which I wanted but hadn't mentioned, so that's good. I just need to be more directive, I think. I was so spoiled with my old minion!

Understood. Still, age factor wins here. She has my Fellow-Young-Persons-Starting-Life sympathy. And so do you.

That's the ticket, just tell her "Get the information, I don't care how you do it!". Another tip, you never have to get bad news if everyone is afraid to tell you bad news. I should write a management book.

People are making me look dumb. 5 minutes after sending out an email stating something will not be done, I get one saying it IS BEING done.
Well, gee, thanks for telling me!!!!
