Bosses will only then blame you for "lack of management" or "poor performance". At that point, rightly or wrongly, you have to decide whether they have to go, or you go for not dealing with the issues or ignoring them or felling a "grass".
Those people dont pay your mortgage, your cars, your holidays-your company does.You dont have to love ya colleagues just work with them
If they are not delivering then, as much as you might get on with them or have a few beers or they have 10 kids and a mortgage is irrelevant.
exactly how it is, not to mention in these times when all companys need to hunt for money rather than wait for it to just turn up having staff that aint focused just means another company on the ball will scoop them up given a chance
fuck me i must me getting old and turning into a company man,,,, wasnt that long ago i was the slacker being carried if im honest
