Sounds like the guy needed to be "let go".

I can't remember more than 2 firings in the 15 years I've been here. You have to really screw up to get fired. Some people have been drinking on the job, (The VP saw them) and nothing was said. Some others smoke joints in the parking lot on their break (and reek!), one has taken 16 weeks of paid 'medical leave' without a doctor's note, half of the warehouse workers smoke in prohibited areas and a couple have been seen sleeping --on a forklift!

I like job security, but I get tired of doing other peoples' work while they get paid.

We aren't as small, but still not very big. 2 1/2 office staff, 2 salesmen, 2 officers and 16 warehouse people.
