Study the symptoms below. TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY .

not adhering to the tidy desk policy

recklessly posting journals without proper documentation
attaching spoilers and go-faster stripes to laptops
repeatedly leaving work on time and offering implausible reasons such as "going out with partner" or "taking the kids to the football"
getting in shape by attending Continuing Professional Development courses
hanging around with the accounting trainees by the smokers' fake bus shelter and participating in idle banter making irrational and disturbing references to there being a better life beyond the month end accounts completion checklist
inappropriately using mufti-days to uncover hidden talents or to explore alternative career paths
