Managers acting as yours are doing is a great way to kill morale & as you said, it’s demotivating & anger inducing. It’s rare that they’ll change - my sympathies.
Thank you.
We are union, so it is almost impossible to fire anyone.
We got rid of the last guy by giving him a territory that made it necessary to drive farther distances than anyone else. He took another job elsewhere.
They are going to be reorganizing the territories again in light of new hires. The new woman is probably going to be in the productive half. The new guy is just too new for me to tell. I have this suspicion, though, that he will be leaving us soon. I think he had an interview somewhere else yesterday.
I think he got scared off by the productive people complaining that they could not take time off at the holidays because of all the work they had to get done. I think the new woman showed him the report she figured out how to run showing the numbers of completed audits for each person, so he figured out that the ones complaining weren’t the lazy ones.
Of course, the nonproductive people took time off—the ones that still had time off to take and hadn’t burned it all throughout the year.
I have 20 vacation days and 3 personal days carried over from last year.
I’ll probably end up being the one to get fired after today’s stunt. I sent a spreadsheet to our manager and supervisors listing the audits that were behind and which people did which, pointing out that all the easy ones were taken by a certain two people in an effort to pump up their numbers whereas I took the majority of the hardest ones.
I complain a lot. I admit it.
