work issues
I hate this.
My stomach has been in knots since early this week. A situation happened at work that I felt didn't need mgmnt attn. A coworker was out of line & has been for quite some time. Well, on top of being rude & unprofessional, Friday was a mess. He doesn't work fridays (w/the new work schedule) but I had numerous customers call & complain about bad service from the same employee.
So now the thought of having to take this to my mgr has been upsetting me. I can't stop thinking about it & hope I don't cross the line. My mgr is wonderful so I know he knows I don't complain for no good reason. I just don't like having to do this. I think what upsets me most, he might lose his job over this. Not that I should avoid the situation due to that. He's horrible at his job & people skills I just hate to get involved.
Thanks for letting me vent.
Re: work issues
I've been in similar situations and not complained and in the end it still got back to management. The person was ultimately let go and after the person was gone I told my manager about my experiences and she was unhappy that I didnt tell her earlier bc the situation could have been dealt with sooner.
What I've learned is a lot of times other people and managers are more aware than we think so letting them know will just be further confirmation for them. I know its tough but I think you should talk to your manager. It's sucks that someone might lose their job but ultimately that their fault and not yours for telling management.

Brandy, I know it really sucks to be put in that situation but from what you've told me...this guy had it coming anyway. If he valued his job he would try and improve his work.
((Hugs))
That really sucks.
Doing the right thing is hard sometimes but you know what you are doing is best for everyone.
That totally sucks. I totally know what you mean. I work in the HR section that deals with all the bad crap and firings are the worst. Honestly though I think if he's recieving that many complaints, you have to say something to your manager. Just tell them what happened and let then deal with making whatever decision they this is best.
I'm sorry.
