Fingers Crossed.

[ASSociate] failed to file a response for a huge case. Most likely we won't get defaulted, however needless to say, [Hours] isn't happy and was overheard screaming "I'm going to fire him!"

The best part is that he's blaming it on our secretary being out yesterday-despite the fact that she e-mailed and called to remind him it was due. Now he's trying to get her to sign an affidavit to the effect that she was out and that is why the answer didn't get filed. I would really love to see the judge laugh him out of court on that one.

Additionally, he ate all my candy. That alone should be enough to fire him for.
