nononom0use123 posted... Maybe you should do the work yourself instead of complaining about others I've only had one coworker that I had no problem doing his Job for him. He maybe was in his 80's and a great person. He's the only one I've totally covered for, that I don't resent. I am the least corporate person you could meet, but I do believe in some basic form of work ethic. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan.

Yeah I had to fire 2 Accountants that would stare at their phones most of the day. I don't mind every once in awhile if you want a breather or have to text/call someone personal. But when you're literally behind schedule/deadlines and it can be traced to you being on the phone too long, then we have a problem. One of the workers, whom I fired, was literally just sliding up watching tik tok videos and when I ask him what was his progress on the AP invoices he was processing, he said he was behind schedule because of his "mental health". Mother fucker couldn't even be honest. That's one risk you run into when you hire someone very young or lacks work experience. --- DI MOLTO! ... Copied to Clipboard!

SiO4 posted... Totally true, but the cheap and malleable. Yeah, as a Senior Manager, you gotta put some faith in your staff to be able to handle the job. I specifically told them they're allowed to do whatever just so long as they can get the job done, a "ends justify the means" kind of deal. The only time I had to hound on some staff was when they're clearly behind on something that shouldn't be taking this long and I can trace it back to them just goofing off. If this was just joe schloe blue collar job it's whatever, but the whole point of them being on my team in my department is that they're looking to go forward on their career. I can't do that if they're going to slack off. --- DI MOLTO! ... Copied to Clipboard!

WingsOfGood posted... so this scenario in your op you were at the business the entire day to examine the worker's productivity? On op's example, their addiction to their cellphones obstructed them from doing their job at the moment. If I see a pattern of the same thing occurring over and over I would write them up. Its called doing the very basics as an employee to keep your paycheck. And with that job ethic you are getting nowhere in life. --- SEXY SEXY! ... Copied to Clipboard!
