‘Useless’ coworker accidentally deletes 15+ hours of employee's work when she finally decides to do her job: ‘I’m stuck having to redo everything’

Do you have that one coworker who you watch do nothing during the workday, mess up when they actually decide to do their job (which isn't often), and the boss still loves them somehow? You've likely dealt with a colleague like this at least once in your life, and that's because underqualified employees exist everywhere in the workforce.

When you have a "useless" slacker on your team, all it takes is one big mess-up for you to open your eyes to just how much your coworker has impacted your work life.

In this next story, an employee is left frustrated after their clearly underqualified coworker deletes over 15 hours of completed work from a project their team was working on. The employee proceeds to explain how "useless" their coworker is in every capacity and is now going to their boss to light a fire under her. Scroll to read.
