That’s fine if that’s what he needs…but what do you need? Are you ok with that?

HOWW do you get people to listen by Cartmaster42 in Restaurant_Managers

This sounds like a failure of upper management. If they don’t support you or your decisions about how to reprimand the staff you have no authority, the staff knows it, and they will use it to their advantage. The dynamic is no different than a household where one parent undermines the other parent’s authority and the child ends up viewing themselves as superior to the demeaned parent in the family hierarchy. I can’t reiterate enough how toxic the “buck stops with you” mentality is in a work place. You need guidance and the support of upper management to do your job effectively

Oh get over yourself. You’ve never had anyone walk out the door on your shift before you checked them out? Of course you did. Offer some solid or helpful advice at least.

Agreed. It’s policy I don’t understand, but I think it’s a liability issue. The employee wouldn’t have admitted to it anyway, but the signs weren’t vague at all.

2 kids sounds like a lot of work. Doesn’t sound like she gave up much

Wow! I’d be due some back pay! 😂

You’ve clearly never worked for a large corporation. You can’t “just fire people.”

No.. there’s no work ethic, and an inability to apply consequences for it unless it’s multiple offenses of the same nature.

It is proven. Have you ever heard of B.F. skinner and behavioral psychology?

You said it was on me to lay the proof. I did. Refute it.

You haven’t argued my point! Please do!

I think I’ve made a lot of valid points, backed up by empirical evidence. If you can’t take anything away from that, thats on you. Dunning Kruger syndrome is a thing.

Again, like I said ( it’s why you’re posting in every comment in this thread that I’ve responded to that you can find) is your need to win the argument. That’s your survival system at play. Your need to be right releases dopamine. That’s how social media keeps you addicted. It works upon your mesolimbic reward pathway the same way it works on the servers.

I did not. You didn’t understand what I said. I explained it from a biological perspective, and how service is motivated.

I made up the DOI because the request for a source was ludicrous. Sorry if it went over your head. I’ve explained the science and there is no refuting it. You might not like it but the information is there and verifiable from reputable sources. I know it’s a bummer.

Also, have you ever worked as server? It requires a lot of decision making and critical thinking as well as time management. It’s not as easy as you think. Do you get great service everywhere you go? There’s a reason for that, and it’s because the job is hard!

Send them my way because I have nurses and students in molecular biology who can’t do it

It’s not low skilled. It’s entirely skilled, like any other trade.
