High fever turned out to be a lie
I have this assistant who always has an excuse for failing to do things. Last week, for example, he failed to deliver work on a project that was due urgently. When he called, he explained that the project was three quarter complete if I could only wait till the following day as he had high fever. Frustrated and unable to decide what to do, I called back after a while and asked him to forward what was complete. The line soon went dead after I reminded him that the remote pc access softwarewe had enabled him to give access to what was complete and that I would get someone else to complete it. That project is still not completed.
