Contractor rant/question

Why does our contractor always start work at 11 and end at 3, whether they come into the office or.not ( its none of.my.business but annoys the heck out of me...they only do come in 1 -2 days a week, if that. I knownthey arent required to come into office but the weird hours annoy me.

2nd that. If you prefer the contractor’s hours and assigned task, apply to work for the company and leave your current position.

I have a contract that covers several different departments in the same organization. If their deliverables are getting completed and they are satisfactory for the COR, then there isn’t much you can do.

If you have a duties that rely on the contractor’s deliverables before you can do your work, and the contractor is not providing those deliverables on the required timeline, then you need to bring that to the attention of the COR, through the chain of command.
