New employee isn’t performing up to standards

DEAR HARRIETTE: The new girl at my job is making me look bad. I trained her myself, but none of the training is seeming to stick. She's in a probationary period right now, and I'm due to give my analysis of her in a week. I really like her, but she's performing so poorly that I cannot cosign. Should I give her a chance to get her act together, or should I be honest about her poor performance? Giving an inaccurate report could put my job in jeopardy. – Poor Performance

DO JUST ONE THING

● Do you use a mesh sponge when you lather up with body wash in the shower? Have you ever thought that something that helps you get clean might need to be cleaned? Bath poufs can be a breeding ground for bacteria if unwashed over time. Disinfect your bath poufs every eight weeks or so by tossing them into your washing machine and laundering them anytime you use warm to hot water. The laundry detergent and hot water will thoroughly disinfect them. Be sure to remove from the washing machine when done and hang to air dry.
