My boss just had a subcontractor removed from our helpdesk at Ft. Liberty. He was missing a lot of work and apparently his reasoning was sent in an e-mail where he refuses to work 4, 10 hour days. Time to drop him from the schedule.

Damn, you must be the most experienced security shack worker in the world! No wonder the new coworker is sticking close to you.
