It is mostly tongue in cheek. However those two were pretty bad. They would not buy Christmas gifts for other employees, would not attend the Christmas party.... but both said they would take gifts others bought for them. I shipped them out to the downtown office shortly after the holidays ended. There were other problems as well, one of them sold their car and told me they would no longer be able to appear in Court or trial. I don't care what my employees do away from the office, what their politics are or what their religion is. However if you don't get along....... so long.
