[12:20:43 PM] Alizjiah™: no he said
[12:20:57 PM] Alizjiah™: the reason we never did the job is cos they never paid their bill for original testing

[12:35:17 PM] Karl D: that sucks for you
[12:35:22 PM] Alizjiah™: so MORE stress
[12:35:23 PM] Karl D: to be having to pressure people and stuff
[12:35:29 PM] Karl D: yeah, must be really stressfull
[12:35:34 PM] Karl D: ontop of all the other crap
[12:35:45 PM] Alizjiah™: and then the guy also working with him came back
[12:35:54 PM] Alizjiah™: while the useless guy went off to do whatever
[12:36:04 PM] Alizjiah™: and im like wtf was he doing why did he take so long?
[12:36:20 PM] Alizjiah™: and he was like I dunno I finished my part quickly and went to help him and he'd done hardly any
[12:36:41 PM] Karl D: :/
[12:36:59 PM] Alizjiah™: and then im getting more emails
[12:37:01 PM] Alizjiah™: and stuff
[12:37:22 PM] Karl D: i hope you either get a pay rise soon or arent doing this for too much longer :3
[12:37:45 PM] Alizjiah™: and then i had a rant at Sam about the useless guy because Sam has over heard me talking with another guy from my team about the useless guy cos Sam is not part of my team
[12:38:01 PM] Karl D: lol
[12:38:15 PM] Alizjiah™: and cos ive said in the past how useless guy just picks the computer which no one can see the screen
[12:38:25 PM] Alizjiah™: and it pisses off the guy who owns the desk to find him istting there
[12:38:31 PM] Alizjiah™: and then all this other stuff
[12:38:36 PM] Alizjiah™: and how useless he is
[12:38:44 PM] Karl D: what a useless
[12:39:02 PM] Alizjiah™: and sam was like "yeah ove been watching him since you mentioned it and he has been hiding away and using his phone a lot"
[12:39:12 PM] Alizjiah™: im definitly going to be telling my boss about him
[12:39:19 PM] Alizjiah™: ive decided
[12:39:32 PM] Alizjiah™: and im hoping the other team members will back me up
[12:39:37 PM] Karl D: hah
[12:39:52 PM] Alizjiah™: because im also going to be telling my boss about the good things
[12:40:20 PM] Alizjiah™: like how the student was all alone in the office doing our work while we were on courses
[12:40:28 PM] Karl D: oh nice
[12:40:41 PM] Karl D: have you talked to useless guy about the dumb behaviour though?
[12:40:45 PM] Alizjiah™: no
[12:40:51 PM] Karl D: its best to only escalate it if you need to
[12:40:57 PM] Alizjiah™: hmm?
[12:41:14 PM] Karl D: well thats in our company anyway
[12:41:26 PM] Karl D: like you talk to the person and say whats wrong or whatever
[12:41:48 PM] Karl D: but if they dont change or listen or anything, then you go higher and tell someone higher up
[12:42:17 PM] Karl D: but it might be a different work environment there so that might not be the normal thing to do either
[12:42:22 PM] Karl D: i dunno :3
[12:42:40 PM] Alizjiah™: i don't know what the normal thing to do is
[12:42:48 PM] Alizjiah™: but my boss is aware he's a bit uelsess
[12:42:52 PM] Alizjiah™: but he just says like
[12:43:03 PM] Alizjiah™: "some people are good at computers and some are good at other things"
[12:43:11 PM] Karl D: mmm yeah youve told me that one
[12:43:15 PM] Alizjiah™: because he is usless at computers because he's on YT all day
[12:43:21 PM] Alizjiah™: but my boss does not know that
[12:43:29 PM] Karl D: xd
[12:43:41 PM] Karl D: to be fair Ally, theres a lot of cat videos to get through on youtube
[12:43:45 PM] Karl D:
[12:43:48 PM] Alizjiah™: and thhe only reason he's good at doing work on his own is because if he does not do it then he gets into trouble
[12:44:04 PM] Alizjiah™: but anything witha team involved and he's just does minium
[12:44:11 PM] Alizjiah™: because he knows someone else will cover it
[12:44:28 PM] Karl D: pretty bad
[12:44:35 PM] Alizjiah™: and that person is uslally me
[12:44:45 PM] Alizjiah™: because im the one the client asks
[12:44:48 PM] Alizjiah™: if its not done
[12:45:12 PM] Karl D: :/
[12:45:42 PM] Alizjiah™: id rather he just not be in our team anymore
[12:45:52 PM] Karl D: itd be easier
[12:45:56 PM] Karl D: but then what would he do
[12:46:05 PM] Alizjiah™: be someone elses problem
[12:46:11 PM] Karl D: xd
[12:46:34 PM] Alizjiah™: its just annoying when im working hard and he's getting paid to mess around on his phone
[12:46:41 PM] Alizjiah™: he never listens either
[12:46:43 PM] Karl D: yeah :/
[12:46:57 PM] Alizjiah™: 9/10 times when i come back 3 hours later to ask "have you done this" his answer is "uhhhhhhh no"
[12:47:13 PM] Karl D: must get reall annoying
[12:48:16 PM] Alizjiah™: mmmmmmm
[12:51:30 PM] Alizjiah™: and how was your day?
[12:51:37 PM] Karl D: lol
[12:51:38 PM] Karl D: was fine
