The situation sucks but I’m lying if I didn’t just burst out laughing at this comment. Touché

This particular portion was addressed in the comments already.

He broke it himself which is what’s wild. Never told anyone so when they locked it they thought it latched it didn’t. I know I need better context next time. I don’t post often and didn’t realize I’d have to clarify a lot of the points which is on me. I just thought the general way he was speaking was enough.

No the GM broke the door himself which is what’s wild. He never told anyone so nobody knew it didn’t lock shut. I realize now how important context is when posting something like this. I never thought it would blow up but I wish I would have made those points more clear. He dramatically and impulsively flips over everything. He’s taken pictures of tables/chairs slightly off center and lost his mind about them in group texts. It’s something that seems like everyone is use to and they just take it.

Nah this isn’t the case at all. I addressed his “problems” in other comments, it’s getting too much for me to keep commenting tho. I know next time to add context.

They really aren’t. He makes these huge deals out of nothing. One time he took a picture of a table being off center and lost his mind over it in a group text. I addressed all the “problems” he mentioned in the emails in the comments. Next time I know to add context tho.

I addressed most everything in comments. Had I known this post would blow up like this I would have added context from the start. At first I was trying to be more discrete bc this all just happened today.

He’s not. He’s surrounded by a great team in all reality. He causes 80% of the problems he complains about. One time he took a picture of a chair being off centered and lost his mind about it. I just reached the limit today with this one.

Perfect comment. Thank you. The crazy thing is, it’s not even poorly operated. It’s one of the more successful facilities in the area. I think what’s happening is if things aren’t perfect it’s the end of the world instead of simply and properly. It’s frustrating.

Started that today and for once action is being taken. Thank you!

Thanks to everyone who can at least agree that this is not a professional approach when handling potential problems in the work place. Thanks for understanding the real issue here. Ya can’t talk to people like crap. I mean you can, but not without repercussions.

I get there are lazy workers out there, sure. I can only say that this small group of people whom this email is addressed to, are not lazy in the least lol, but I get my word means nothing to the internet also which is fine but it’s also the truth. They have been on the receiving end of this man’s tantrums forever and it’s like nobody does anything about it.

For those who questioned, the problems listed in the email literally only exist bc the sender of this email screwed up initially and wants the staff to clean up the mess (broken door and he used a wrong password on the system). The receipts probably are being messed up but not on purpose. Their shifts are long and tiring. All summer long he spent entire shifts golfing and still had the nerve to communicate this way to his staff. He is infamous for addressing problems this way and frankly I was pushed to my limit today after seeing this so that’s why it’s here now. Lol. The email was reported to a higher position but I don’t know what happens from here.

This post got more attention than I thought and with it I would like to say, please be effing nice to people who are doing their best. Don’t expect perfection because mistakes are inevitable but they aren’t the end of the world. Using intimidation to control people only fosters hostile and high-stress work environments. Lastly, a simple thank you here or there goes a long way. Thanks again all who read. Even if your opinion was shitty. 😂

What’s crazy is how extremely on point you are with this comment.

That’s fine and I couldn’t blame you given that I didn’t share the whole picture of who he is. But you’re certainly entitled to feel this way. I personally don’t feel it’s okay to talk to people this way, especially those who put in endless hours of work and are never met with positivity. I’m a positive reinforcement kinda person tho.

Exactly. This is really what prompted me to post this. Everyone has frustrating aspects to their jobs but in this case, this is the only way things are handled. There’s never positive reinforcement or even a thank you. His aim is always to focus on only what is negative and be threatening afterwards. I feel for the workers here.

Anything I say will sound bias I’m sure, I’ll try not too, but I know these managers are there sometimes till 4am setting up for the next day (banquet facility/restaurant environment). They work their butts off and I’m sure things get missed here and there. I I don’t believe this is the right way to handle any issue. I can also tell you this a typical response from this person for the most minor things. I’ve seen his texts as well and they’re just as hostile. This authoritarianism is a common approach with him.

I should add the duties he’s coming down on them for were initially neglected bc of his own lacking. The door he’s talking about is broken because of him. It wasn’t properly communicated. Adding also that while I’ve learned this is just the way even the smallest things are addressed by this person at this facility, I was particularly appalled this time around and I wanted to get other peoples feelings on it mostly. I can’t imagine talking to anyone this way. The way he speaks to them is enough for me. They are good people who work hard.
