Today at work while we all came early one of the newly employed staff came few minutes late, it wasn't up-to an hour our boss came in and requested for the time book, immediately it was handed to her and she asked about the staff who came late few, when she showed she asked her to go home, I was like, What?...
I mean there's a penalty for lateness which is to subcharge, why asked this lady to do home, moreover she's a new employee just about three days old in the company, I saw the look on the staff's face dull and gloomy, and I'm like is this even necessary?.... Why not issue a stern warning to these lady and watch to see her fail again...
There's this thing about The Over hyped, over rated BOSSY ATITUDE my EMD has, the kind that comes with pride, i understand the fact that when it comes to managing staffs human beings all from different backgrounds trying to fix them into one big box, is the toughest thing to do.
Yah I get it trying to handle the pressure from staffs, customers and trying to balance both is not an easy task, but then again, there should be a little bit of spot for staff's welfare and well being.
I was so pissed at her actions towards the new staffs who knew nothing just yet, what's with the bossy attitude, already the staffs fear and respect her so much so what's with all of the excesses, it's not necessary, approach people with love and care no matter the person's nature, they will definitely fall into command
I understand that this is exact same thing, going on in almost every offices, especially private firms, they treat staffs with disdain, no regards or welfare of any sort even the least minimum wage payment mandatory in the country is impossible for moat of them to pay...
I once worked for a firm last year in porthatcourt River state Nigeria, and I was among those that worked, toiled day and night to set up the space, since it was a new company, but do you believe that this company never made provisions for staff welfare
NO STAFF LAUNCH
NO SHIFT
NO OFF DAYS
NO ALLOWANCE
PLUS they began to owe our very small salary after the first month, I was so pissed and left the job after the first three months
I just wish employers can learn to treat their staffs as humans that they're not as some alien from space
