[quote=Anonymous]I've posted before about being stuck on a project with a coworker who is tanking it due to astounding incompetence.  I tried talking gently to management - they know she's not great, but apparently thought I could fix it.  I tried, and coworker actually got worse.  Recently discovered that said coworker is aware of how bad she is doing, and doesn't care.  She's moving away at the end of next year and will be quitting, but hasn't told management.  In the meantime, she's just clocking in for the paycheck and really doesn't care about the project or anything else.  The problem is that she told me this in the strictest confidence and I promised not to tell (before I knew what she was going to tell me), so now I can't really say anything.  Or....should I?  Project is going to fail way before she leaves, and it's going to hurt my career.  Trying to do both our parts is literally killing me and I can't keep it up, especially since it's structured so that I have to rely on her for some client contact, where of course she is wreaking havoc.  Ugh, such a catch 22.[/quote]
