I would definately discuss this with your boss. Just go in her office, ask if she has a few minutes, and shut the door. Explain that it is a continuing problem you've been struggling with, and would appreciate her feedback on how to solve the situation. As long as you approach it postively, and not as a frustated "tattler", you're boss will appreciate your honesty.

Well you definitely need to say something to your boss because this woman is stealing from the company and if you don't say anything and she is caught and it becomes obvious that you knew about it and didn't say anything then you could be considered an accomplice to the theft. It is just the right thing to do and it sounds like you already know that. I would go to the boss and say this..... There is something I have become aware of that I feel you should know... Jane has been sleeping on the job and she is adding hours to her timecard that she didn't work. I care about this company because I enjoy working here and it also pays my bills. I hate to see someone stealing from you. Then just leave it at that and let her handle the rest. Believe me if she is any kind of a boss she will appreciate the input and her opinion of you will increase greatly because she knows you are putting the welfare of the company above your own comfort. Please don't mention anything about her voice getting on your nerves because that will come across as being petty. I am a supervisor and I had an employee do the same thing stealing money by adding time not worked and another employee lied for her about it. I ended up firing both of them because it was obvious to me that neither of them were an asset to the company. It takes a team to make a business grow and succeed and you are obviously dealing with someone who is not part of the team. Do not feel bad about doing this because it really is your job to help make sure the company grows and succeeds. Good luck!

I once worked a 24 hour shift on my last job, when my shift ended I went home and forgot to clock out. So I came back to clock out as usually. When I returned to work on Monday I got fired. Some idi*t person saw me walking out and ratted me out to management, which I had total intentions of reporting the incident, it was only 1 hour! Anyways, ever since then I have hated rats...people who rat you out just to look better in front of the boss, and I knew who she was...and she will know who ratted her out as well. My suggestion is to talk to her about it, tell her about how she annoys you, but don't let her know about the time clock. She will eventually get caught on her own, and if it's been going on for a long time then join the club and add yourself some 2-3 hours per week as long as its not noticeable..After my last job I've had a salary base job for the last 2 yrs. and couldn't be happier. I'm not suggesting that you steal from the company...it's more like them paying you for putting up with an annoying co-worker. Another thing you should do, is leave an annonimous note on her desk while she is away or asleep and tell her that the manager passed by her and saw her asleep or something like that to ger her attention. I'm sure that'll wake her up somehow and be more alert about her job.

That co-worker absolutely needs to be turned in.
Begin writing down the date, each time they leave their desk, how long they're gone, when they fall asleep at their desk and for how long. Also, write down the actual time into work and time out of work each day.
After a couple of weeks, make a copy of it and bring it to your boss letting them know just how long it's been going on and that you feel they should be made aware of it.
That co-worker is stealing from the company time and more. It's wrong.

Before you do what every person seems to be suggesting that you do, pray for her. Ask the Lord to change her heart so she won't lose her job, because it is just a matter of time before your boss finds out. Slothful people continually get worse and it will come front and center where everyone will notice her. It already sounds as if she is pushing her limit toward being caught. Dishonest people are always liars and thieves and they set themselves up to be caught. They really don't know how to be good people. Goodness is taught.

I feel for ya.
I'd schedule a meeting with my boss & address the things that you've observed about your co-worker. Feel out your boss's reaction & if she seems genuinely surprised, she may want to meet with both of you, so be prepared for that.
If it appears that she doesn't want to do anything about your lazy co-worker, then let her know that you can't continue to work with this co-worker & that you'd like to move to another department.
If things don't change after you've addressed it with your boss, then find a new job & let them have their sloth & vulgarity, and you move on to a place that will appreciate your honesty & work ethic.
Good luck.

I would just have a meeting with your boss, let her know that you aren't wanted to start any problems, but this has come to your attention and you thought that it should be brought to hers, or his. You are trying to do your best work for the company and the dynamic in your office isn't allowing it. You also just wanted to let her know of the dishonesty in the time cards and don't think tht it is fair, or good for the company.
