Work ethics is a fortnightly feature in Guardian Workwhere a reader submits a workplace dilemma and asks for your help. A selection of the best answers will appear in Saturday's paper. (And if you have an office dilemma you'd like to share, anonymously, with our readers, please email us).
This week's question
A useless trainee has been placed on my team. She is surly, a sloppy worker and comes and goes as she pleases. I'd have recommended getting rid of her long ago – but seeing as she's the MD's daughter, I suspect she'll be staying. Do any readers have any advice or experience of dealing with such a delicate situation?
What are your thoughts?
