Employees always have a lot of expectations of their bosses. Similarly, as all the bosses also have expectations for their employees. Many times, employing the employees after a few rounds of interviews may not necessary reveal much of a person.

I think the ten worst types of of employees a boss can have can be listed below:

1. Poor Attitude
Attitude is the most important factor to look for in an employee. Attitude determines a lot of things and it affects a person's character in return. Having a positive attitude make the employee a happier person, a happy person is able to interact well with the people in the office. This makes everybody in the office happy and all are able to work as a team.

An employee who has poor attitude cannot be bothered about his learning attitude, his self-image, and this will produce poor results in his work, and he may not get along well with his colleague.

2. Bad-Mouth
A company's reputation is very important for it to function well and to be standing out from the other competitor in the market. A dissatisfied and disloyal employee who always bad-mouth about the company is not to be trifled with. Again this can be an attribute of bad attitude.

3. Disloyal
An employee who work in the company for the sake of money, just to get his/her monthly salary. He/she might 'sell' important information from the company to 'outsider', who is their competitor.

4. Greedy
An employee who is greedy is a liability to the company. This employee is never satisfied with whatever the company provides. Having a greedy nature, whatever things he/she does may be wasteful to the company.

5. Dishonest
A person who is greedy may resort to crime. When tempted with temptation, such as handling a huge sum of money, a greedy accountant forged false accounts to get the money or through other means. Similarly, an dishonest employee might do the same thing. Theft might arise from the company also(This person may instigate other people to steal from the company if he is not able to do it himself.)

6. Selfish
An employee who never put the company in the first place is not only disloyal, he/she will think of ways to benefit himself/herself more than the company's welfare. This arises the selfish nature of him/her as a result. Being selfish, disloyal, dishonest, he might misuse the company's inventories.

7. Lazy
A lazy employee is another disadvantage or liability to the company. Not only is he/she not productive to the company, he/she is another additional 'cost' to the company.
