Dear Starting over Sister, I am a contractor that is working for an internatioal company since the last week of January. Another contractor, a guy, joined the company in the latter part of Februay. Since he started work he has done nothing. Our job was to support the IT Helpdesk. He wouldn't answer the phone, always came in late, took breaks in the middle of the morning and the middle of the afternoon. Wouldn't take lunch at the assigned time and always came in late. Just a few weeks ago, he didn't call in until 9:30 that he wasn't going to be in until 10:30. He was supposed to be in at 7:00. I had also seen his timesheet and few times and saw his was misreprenting his time. I did finally tell my boss that he wasn't answering the phone and was always late. Thanks heavens, the next day was when he decided not to come in until 10:30 without calling. My boss said to be patient.
When I first joined this company the boss said this position my go permanent. I had several of my collegues note that I wasn't answering the phones. I didn't want my boss to think I wasn't doing anything, so that's why i went to him because I didn't want to jeopardize my future. Being "patient" I realized meant he wasn't going to do anything.
Sisters, what would you do in this situation?
Signed,
eternally frustrated at work!!

Other than you being annoyed does it affect your job when he doesn't do his?

Are his calls being rerouted to you when he doesn't answer? Are the calls your missing due to call volume?
If your boss said to be patient, then be patient. The job may be aware of his poor work quality and be getting ready to do something about it. The other thing to consider is alot of companies don't like nonpermenant employees "rocking the boat". The best thing to do may be to just go about your job and ignore his poor work ethic. Picking up a little of his slack may actualy help you get that perminent position, it will show your dedicated and a team player.
When the time comes to decide who to keep which of you will they appreciate more you or the slacker?
