Is it me or has the work place dramatically changed the last year or so? Has Covid-19 made people go mad?
So I started a new job the start of May and I feel my line manager is a bit of a liability. So my second week he went awol for a week and then returned saying his kid was really sick in hospital, so ok fair enough. This week again he’s a no show and won’t answer his phone or texts? Everyone has the hump as he is the only sales person and I’ve been dumped in the deep end and hardly had any training. I’m not too fussed as the pay is good and I’m not working to hard yet but last week my manager told a customer to F off and then had a screaming row with another manager over nothing. I’m no saint but I’m thinking dude you’re on good money working for a firm that seems to have more benefits than most plus you have a mortgage and kids so pull your finger out.
Company I worked for before half of them a nightmare!!! We didn’t get paid well but end of the day we had a job to do. People storming out saying I’ve had enough, one person kept going off sick and turned out on one of those occasions she went to Spain .
Even a friend of mine had a great career but last 3 years has turned into a waster. Not paying the mortgage, got sacked and can’t be bothered to work or talk with his kids. Has no answer why he is now like this.
Most of us hate work but we have to do it. Many a time I’ve wanted to stab someone in the eye with a biro but a little voice in my head says no you have to pay for. I swear 20 years ago this type of behaviour was not tolerated
