Meeting with someone you hate?

[catnapper]

Welll.... she arrived 45 minutes late to the meeting so my boss and I just got started making up the next 3 months' worth of training classes for the calendar. She came in and complained about the times and dates of everything. Got into an almost shouting match with the manager. It ended with her giving her notice!!! Yes, she's quitting! (oh happy dance, happy dance, happy dance!)

Now, I am going to be very cautious about this, since she's said one thing in the past and done another. So we'll see if she actually follows through and does leave. She is going to start new classes up til Thansgiving then leave in January after all the November classes are over.

Oh, and we never got to talk about all my issues with her -- she quit while going over the calendar! We never even got into the REAL issues! LOL

If she tries to back peddle and "un-quit", I sure hope your boss makes it clear that it is not up to her. She shouldn't have that option. She should be gone now. What kind of "manager" do you have?

Now, I'm not one to sabotage someone (Lord knows she's doing that on her own), but I believe I would approach the manager about your concerns that her negative feelings about the store (since she's announced she's leaving) may be detrimental to business and you would sure hate to hear that she has been badmouthing the store and the traininig program. SHE NEEDS TO GO NOW! And if your manager was any kind of manager, she would already be gone. He/She needs to stand up and take some control and quit letting her call the shots. If I was the manager, my conversation would go like this: "Since you are so unhappy with your employment here, we have accepted your resignation. Effectively immediately."

Let's just wish her well and be glad that she will be making some other office/store miserable -- not yours!

I'd hardly call that "quitting" - that's 3 MONTHS from now!

She can cause a LOT of Grief in 3 months ...
Why didn't "The Boss" just tell he she was GONE in two weeks?

Good Luck!
