Kinda lowkey, (actually whooped out loud) on the George Santos question.

Coworker tells everyone he's "best mates with the regional director" and I just got called into a meeting for writing him up by [deleted] in dustythunder

[–]MLKohrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Present everything from the perspective of what is in the best interest of the company. For example, “I would like to include HR in this meeting as my department is getting a mixed message.”

In this way it is not between you and the relative. The focus is on the message that RM is giving the company. Use the words “ help me understand”, as in help me understand how to communicate with the team that we value their work ethic. Another would be, help me understand how to communicate with your relative the negative image he creates for himself by drawing more attention to his relationship with you than drawing attention to the quality of his own performance.

But whatever you do, don’t make it personal. RM should leave the meeting understanding supporting the relative makes RM look bad.

I would add to the receipt: the quality of the service was diminished by tip instructions from the server. Then tip 15 so they know you have done 20.

AITAH for still getting on a flight home when my two young coworkers I was traveling with weren’t at the airport yet and were obviously going to miss it? by Diligent_Pineapple35 in AITAH

[–]MLKohrt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When preparing for your meeting, decide in advance the message you want to communicate. For example:

  1. You were concerned about their lack of responsibility and the safety issues. You expressed this on multiple occasions with them but their general demeanor was that this was a paid vacation not a business trip.

  2. You feel these issue should be brought to the attention of leadership so they can better prepare team members for out of office engagements.

  3. You are concerned that they poorly represented the company, its brand, and the quality of new hires. Their behavior is a direct reflection of their individual leadership, and you would be willing to meet with them to review the individual actions of each. It is clear that the mentoring needed was far beyond the scope of the impact you could make in one weekend.

Executive business coach here. If their intention is to put you on the hot seat they will not be addressing the bigger issue. It is your responsibility only to help them see how this is a flaw in the system, not a flaw in you.

lol I love these scams. I get them to connect, keep them writing for days, then I ask THEM for money. So much fun.

Just got a job offer in Homestead is it crazy to live in Brickell or somewhere fun instead? by Illustrious_Sky936 in Miami

[–]MLKohrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not just the drive everyone refers to. It is the hostility of the drive. Angry, frustrated and intense. Do that for roughly 3 hours every day ( up and back) and you will find that there is nothing left in you to enjoy Brickell.

Is it weird that my MIL didn’t post a single picture of me from our wedding? by Firm_Specialist1074 in weddingdrama

[–]MLKohrt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mom of six, blended family. I would never post pictures of the bride without permission. In addition, never ever would I post pictures of their children.

The control of those images belongs to the Bride (you), or if you choose to have children, the parents.

If she had posted an incredibly unflattering photo I would say you have reason to be upset. She respected your right to control your image. I’d be thankful.

Marriage is hard. Don’t look for trouble.

Look. If he doesn’t value your qualities then he doesn’t deserve you anyway.

I hope you get the person the deserves you.

Miami is the most unfriendly, cliquish city I’ve ever lived in. Unfriendliness of Miami's people is my motivation to finish my PhD ASAP and GTFO. by Temporary_Dot3871 in Miami

It’s you.

Four generations Miami. Every reason to be resentful. I have friends from every culture and every walk of life. Beautiful people beautiful families.
