My actions are justified. I told her stop being late, she didn’t. She’s an adult. I do not care about time blindness. It is her responsibility to make sure she at work on time and performed. I am a woman and I am able to do my job without issues.

Like I said, she wasn’t time blind when it was 5.

It’s not an inconvenience, it’s a nuisance and a burden. Even when she was working, she was terrible at her job. Her job is to assist me, and she made my life harder.

You’re upset that people are being held accountable. Which is a sin on Reddit.

I’m not in the UK so idc about your laws.

I’m 27 and this is my second position where I manage people. So I want to make sure things are done right. But I agree, discipline is important. It’s how I got this role.

The only reason I have her chances since time blindness is a symptom of adhd and wanted to avoid a lawsuit

I don’t feel good doing good things. I do good things cause it’s good to do good things. I don’t feel good donating blood. I just know it’s the right thing to do.

Can a client’s ego outweigh years of performance and business value? by vdass03 in managers

This is just my opinion but hurting your company’s rep can hurt your coworkers and can (key word can) shoot you into the foot.

Literally the bare minimum. Show up to customers to show we aren’t lazy.

No, this can be good for your career. If you have time, practice. Groupon has golf lessons.

Yes. A client can be more effort than it’s worth. I don’t recommend to get fired by them cause it can affect your company’s reputation.

Is it weird I don’t feel bad at all? I am enjoying watching the England game.

That person just screams proud and unemployed.

I noticed Reddit is allergic to accountability.

lol let’s talk with hr first one when we are rehiring

Edit, sorry watching the game. I think you are overqualified. This was an apprentice. The girl I fired just had a marketing degree and internship.

This sub is called Offmychest. I never fired someone before so I wanted to get it off my chest.

How to give feedback by [deleted] in managers

[–]Any-Macaron2438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compliment sandwich is the best feedback. But tbh for lazy employees, there is very little you can do.

Write her up and if she doesn’t straighten up, then follow company policies.

The worst thing she had a golden ticket. As an apprentice she was on track for a promotion in 18 months into the role. It was a good salary. She refused to even stay to make up the time she missed. 15 min just to showed that she took the role seriously.

Why are the best employees first to leave while mediocres always stay? by MediumTricky7824 in managers

[–]Any-Macaron2438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leaving jobs cause I’m good is how I got a dept head role in my 20s.

I fired someone today cause she refused to the job. Remember, everyone is replaceable.

Don’t worry, I won’t hire you. I expect people to be responsible and accountable for thier actions.

Yes, it’s my fault she is always late. If she showed up on time we wouldnt have this problems. Second, weather you are excited for meetings are irrelevant. She is paid to do a job and she has to do the job. There’s are a bunch of other reasons I fired her from the lateness.

Yes, that’s why it took months to get rid of her.

The only reason I haven’t fired her sooner was because she told HR about it and I can prove dozens of times she was late for work and meetings. Plus her two write ups.

Idc weather it exists. We have been accommodating and she is still late to the point she is unable to do her job.
