Don't know about all companies, but in mine, regular tardiness can (and has) result in dismissal.

I saw an event 37 stating I had a valid time server. Then I saw an event 35 stating my time was being changed up 3 minutes. Now my pc time, server time, and dc time all match my cell time. I will let this ride a couple of days and then verify with the users that their 'cell phones' must have corrected themselves. :-) I wonder why tock is 3 minutes different??? ----- Original Message ----- From: Sherry Abercrombie <mailto:[email protected]> To: NT System Admin Issues <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2009 9:05 AM Subject: Re: Times My cell phone (AT&T), DC & local workstation all have the same time....
