    The OP is stating that she knew from the employee’s first day, they were not right for the job, because the employee was late on their first day without any notice or head’s up.

    There is nothing in the post to indicate how long the employee has been working there, nor what incident led to the being fired.

      Again, “she told me the week before that I had no empathy.” I suppose it’s possible that this employee said that before they were hired, but it really seems to indicate to me that she’s worked that for at least a week. Maybe as little as 4 days, if she said it Friday and was sacked Monday.

        I’m confused what you’re confused about. Why are the only options in mind: “the fired employee said this on the first day they arrived a week ago,” or “they said it before they were hired”?

        Instead of the much more likely: “they said it a week ago and were hired multiple weeks/months/years ago”?

          Those aren’t the only options I’m considering??? I said “over a week later” and “at least a week” in my comments, which covers weeks/months/years
