It's always great to de-clutter and put things into neat little bins. Same goes for getting rid of the dead weight around the office.
I have had a fantastic week. Two (yes... two) of my staff members decided to resign this week. And I am jumping for joy! ![]()
I know, as a Manager I should be trying to retain employees and nurture their careers. But in my case, the two that resigned probably saw the writing on the wall. And it wasn't complimentary. One is so absent-minded that I'm not sure how he even navigates his way thru any given day. Dumb-ass is an understatement. The other one was basically a name on the schedule, but is so elusive that I was beginning to wonder if she even existed. We are nearly six months into the year, and she has only worked 2 shifts! Yep, 2 whole shifts! She must be exhausted. ![]()
So one was on the path to termination due to poor work performance, and the other was on the way out the door due to absenteeism. But they did me a favor, and made a pre-emptive strike and quit instead. Lucky me, there is waaaayyyyyyy less paperwork for me to do since their demise was "voluntary". I'm sure they both think that the business will struggle without them... so let's add delusional to the list of their fine qualities as well. ![]()
Drinks are on me. Time to celebrate another victory for the boss.
