For reference, something like 80% of the answers there do not answer the question which is, "How can I make team members punctual?". Saying "You shouldn't make them punctual!" is not an answer. Please vote accordingly regardless of whether you think punctuality is important or not. We need to make sure that our answers address the question.

No, there are no more lemmings around to help you ignore this..." What a disappointment

@Chad the most urgent help we can offer now is to delete this crappy offensive brainless answer asap: workplace.stackexchange.com/a/18922/168 - after that, salvaging the question can go its usual way
 
@gnat Already on it
 
@Chad while we're at it, your edit at that question looks pretty good. :) I think I'll vote reopen if someone else will jump the bandwagon and add fifth CV there
 
CMW
@gnat We could also do that proactively, assuming someone has a vote on it left
 
its yoyoed where it was at 4 then down to 2 and back to 4 now
 
CMW
I'm happy to help re-open it

Is it wrong that I want to get some rep on The Applefanboy SE just so I can down vote everything :p
 
CMW
lol
I would share mine with you but you're only going to vote me down :D
 
I actually have no desire to go there but I like clicking the hot questions and one happened to be an apple question... not sure how it got there there

It's likely this very much depends on local laws and regulations, maybe also on what's stated in your contract. — CMW 49 secs ago
can someone confirm that?
 
@CMW yeah mechanics is pretty simple, :) but I prefer to abstain of tricks like that... it somehow doesn't feel fair
 
CMW
@gnat I see. We'll just keep an eye on it then

They can ask you anything you want. They can not force you to answer, but may be able to force you to take a physicial to prove you are fit for duty. They also get to know more if it is a workplace injury

CMW
workplace.stackexchange.com <- stats box on the right
