I looked through the student employment handbook and it sounds like you should go: 1. verbal warning (which she has had, although I don't know that anyone has told her officially it is a verbal warning) 2. written warning 3. firing, unless the incident is egregious. They also suggest (which I didn't do because of course this is my first time) having the student read and sign a paper saying that they understand that things like coming to work on time and dressing appropriately are expected, and exactly what the consequences will be.
I feel like that process will take until the time she is going to be done anyway.
Have you tried working it out with her in-thread, Sophia?
Hee. I wish we could put it to a vote. My boss is mad at her, too, but she strongly believes that things will work them selves out. On the other hand, I tend to be non-confrontational and just work around things. So not a good combo right now!
It won't work out. She will suck you dry. Cut her off now. End it, end it, end it.
And, no, I don't know where that is coming from, except my SQL query was bad and it's too late to fix the output dump before the vendor comes into town.
Oops.
ita, what database server are you working with?
ita, may I suggest that you punch New Guy. It will make you feel better, just on principle.
It's actually a file dump (files referred to in the records) they made based on a query I wrote over a month ago. I fixed the query since then, but it took them a month to extract the files, so there's no way they can re-run their end in time. I'm hoping my initial query was sufficiently a superset (I could run the numbers and check, but I'm askeered, which means I'll do it tomorrow) to mean it won't be a big deal.
Goddamned parentheses and word wrap.
And, uh, me.

Can I? Pretty please?
ita, I mean what brand of database server? MS SQL Server? Oracle?
Just curious....
