How Do You Handle a Gemini Employee?

Posted by misslissa
It really depends on how I'm feeling that day... I can be part of the team, or just be by myself. One day I'll like detailed work, other days something mindless. I'm ok with authority and can be "submissive" if need be. I, personally, wouldn't be in sales tho... Not unless I believe in what I'm selling.

Female Gemini apllied for a sales position with my company. She's a very good communicator and has great sales abilities. The problem is she doesn't follow through on her paperwork, doesn't work well with the other employees, and can be negative. I know it sounds like she's a mess, but if I hire her, sales will shoot up, and that's all I can focus.
Anyone have experience with working with a Gemini, and what's it like? If you're a Gemini and working, what makes you satified with your job? Or what would be the ideal job for you?

I was TOP seller at my previous job (banking job) A lot of people at my job Disliked me then I had the few that LOVED me! The only reason why those didn't like me is because I talked A LOT! I wanted to chat with everybody and anybody and my boss HATED it because it would distract me from my work but he LOVED me at the same time because I was the reason why our sales targets were so HIGH. I got payed the MOST commission because of it. If you want us to be happy at our jobs make sure nobody is troubling us and give us our freedom to 'Talk' and be free spirited it is part of our nature. They say out of ALL zodiac signs Geminis are the most successful at targeting the MOST Sales! So be nice and be kind and if you have to put your foot down wth her then DO IT.. We respect that.. but don't over do it to the point where we are Bored and feel uncomfortable because we feel we are over working and not even allowed to blink.. to us if we are not allowed to speak to other co workers your basically telling us we cannot blink or breath and that is ANNOYING my boss even noticed how I worked and he worked with me every time he seen me speaking with a co worker he would give me a couple of minutes with them and then I would go back to work because I would know when to STOP! But if you give us that minute or two to speak our minds, and chat with our co workers we will be the best employer you could ever ask for.. but with a little bit of drama and chit chatter hehe HIRE HER! You won't regret it!

Ideally, there would be several different types of things I would be responsible for doing, and I would be free to move between them at will. That way, when something got boring or repetitive, I could switch it up a bit.
I'm fine with authority, as long as I've AGREED to it. If you are giving me a paycheck in exchange for work, then I've agreed to accept the hierarchy in the workplace. However, I am NOT okay with an employee of my same stature trying to assert dominance or get ahead of me undeservedly.
