I vouched for a close friend of mine to get a job at my current workplace. 2 weeks in and I've noticed some weird behavior.

• He has missed some important meetings


• He has lied (twice) about a personal emergency to get out of the office


• On a typical day he just seems to disappear from the office for 4 or 5 hours


• He sometimes states that he is working from home but no work is getting done.

I strongly suspect that he did not actually quit his former job which was a bit relaxed and allowed him to work from home most of the time. So he could be disappearing to deal with other commitments at his previous job.

I have realized that I made a terrible mistake vouching for him especially since he is my friend. We had worked together for several years in a previous company and technically he is very good. I feel like he has made a fool of me, betrayed my trust in him and is not taking the job seriously.

We report to the same manager and I feel that when my manager realizes this, my reputation will be tainted. Should I confront him and ask him to resign if it turns out that he had not quit his former job? This issue has really angered me to a point where ending the friendship is an option because it feels like he took my job as a joke and is risking my reputation at work.

Update

My manager was aware that he is my friend and that we had worked together before.
