4) C–Incorrect.
This level of patience really isn't a virtue. One spoken and one written reprimand are enough for a poorly performing team member. Too many practice owners and managers fall into the "I'm gonna" trap. They tell their employees, "If you do that again, I'm going to give you a verbal warning or I'm going to give you a written warning," but they never do.
