man, had I known that dude was such a slacker, i'd have fired him long ago...
it's incredible that he still works there. One thing I could recommend is to do something that pisses him off, like not listening to him. If he ticks off in front of the other employees or the boss, it's a surefire way out of there unless he's doing some major asskissing...
I do... It' called "Killing him with kindness"...
An update:
Last Saturday I worked. I came in at the normal time. He was there and he looked at me and said "God, I guess you're going to have to sit in here. God Ackman, you're controlling my life. Unless I have to remove you by force, then you're just going to sit there. Now sit down and shut up, don't talk to me." I was silent the entire time. A little later, the other employee that was supposed to relieve him never showed up. He was angry that he had to be in the same place as me. He left at 7:00 and someone else came in. I wonder if he noticed how clean the backroom was and how condensed the load was. I made sure the cooler was all nice for him too. I love working there, but this guy is really rubbing me the wrong way.
As for the slacker comment, yeah he is a slacker; a big time slacker. Our duties during the weekend are:
1. Make sure liquor is stocked.
2. Pull things forward in the cooler for me to restock
3. Make sure sodas are stocked as well.
He doesn't help with the liquor, even though it goes by faster when two do it(It's been really dead as of late, so there's plenty of time to do it.) As for soda, good luck. He'd rather text and sit there than do nothing. I find myself helping the customers more than he does; I actually know where everything is, and thanks to my obsession with different liqueurs and spirits; I know the inventory like the back of my hand.
