My Boss Takes Long Lunches And Comes Back Smelling Like Alcohol. What Should I Do?

admin — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 06:08:12 +0000

I would normally go to the HR department with this information, but in this case, I work in HR and my boss is the Director of the department. Her behavior goes against everything I believe in and it’s starting to affect my morale at work. Since I don’t participate in the festivities she treats me as though she made a mistake in hiring me. Should I confront her? Should I just quit? From what I understand, the company is fine with the occasional fun during work, but again, she’s the Director of HR and she’s doing this at least 3 days a week.

Do I Have Any Chance In Hell At Getting My Job Back, Or Am I Just Crazy?

So, about a month ago I was offered a job at a daycare right across the street from where I live. It’s perfect for me because I can walk, and I’m in school getting a psychology degree. I want to be a teacher someday, and it’s good experience. Not to mention the pay is great…11 dollars to start, goes up to 13 after 6 months!! Anyway, it takes everyone a long time to get all their required paperwork ready because they are a governement daycare. I have lived in lots of different states, and it took a while. Anyway, the week that I was going to in process through the human resource office I had a death in the family. I tried contacted the HR office, and got an answering machine. I had to go out of town, and told them that in the two messages that I left. So, a few days went by and they didn’t call me back. I called them again, and they said they never recieved any of my calls or messages! They told me that I could still in process if the director of the daycare said it was okay, and when I called her she basically bitched me out, and told me they moved on. WELL, my neighbor also got a job there and said that they have not yet found anyone, and the director is just really stressed out and working long hours. I was thinking that maybe I can write a letter and apologize for the mis communication, and tell her that I am still available? I don’t know..is that a stupid idea? What do you think?

I Left My Old Employer And Now Want To Go Back.?

admin — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 05:40:44 +0000

About six months ago, I left my old company due to the fact that I thought I was unhappy. However, I now see that I was never happier than I was at this company.
One of the customer service reps from my old company called and asked me how I was doing and I told her that I was very unhappy. She told me to come back to the company; I figured that it would never happen so I never made any contact with my old boss or the company.
After 2-weeks, my old boss called me and said he heard I was unhappy and wanted to come back; now, he is coming down to talk to me with the Director of Human Resources.
What can I say or how can I prove to them that I am serious about coming back and will not look at leaving again a year from now.
I want to retire with this company and now know that I made a very bad decision in leaving.
Please help me or provide me some suggestions.
Thanks!!!

Should Someone Be Held Back In Their Job For Not Socializing With Coworkers?

The Holiday Season is here and it is time for the annual Corporate Christmas party. It is always held at the local 4 Star Hotel Ballroom with great music and food. It is a nice affair. Many of the staff does not want to go because they are not friendly with their coworkers and have no one to talk to.
The COO and Human Resources Director informally notice who is not going to the annual Holiday Party and the summer Corporate Picnic. Both of them strongly belive that everyone should go to these events as part of their corporate citizenship. Everyone is told when they are hired that they are part of the corporate family and they need to look at the job as more than a place to go 8-5. Attending corporate events like the Christmas Party is part of that obligation.
Do you think that people should be rewarded at performance appraisal time if they make friends on the job and go to off hours events like the Holiday Party and Company Picnic?
