Need some advice about my job...

Time is money as they say. So training someone takes a certain amount of time and usually a fair bit of money. As such I would much rather keep my investment in training someone by making them more evicient with better training techniques than bouncing of walls shouting and having them leave. To harrangue a new employee is just about the most illogical thing you can do in a business.

I too am hard on myself. But I try to learn a new thing every day. Remeber you weren't there for the time they are auditing for (wereyou?)so take a deep breath. Im the superviser/manager for a large gift shop. I have been learning the buying and dealing with salesmen and my staff. Just master one task at a time and before you know it you will have it all down. Smile and breathe.

I wish more people shared that philosophy!

Federal law is a great thing in that it protects people from injustice in the work world . Unfortuneatly most people who are fired for unjust reasons *especially in low income jobs* around here at any rate choose to just accept thier fate and get another job rather than fighting it. I myself wouldn't stand for it but a lot of people would rather just not rock the boat. In Nevada, there are a lot of resources for free/low payment legal help for just that reason. I think employers would be more apt to be on the level if more people would stand up for themselves. I wasn't denying that protections exist Edwina, I'm just sad that most people don't bother researching the rights that they indeed do have. What are employment laws like in California? I'm kind of curious because I have heard they are much different than in most places.

I wasn't there for the time they are auditing Corinna (Mostly they are looking at the 2003-2004 fiscal year). I think the pickyness of the auditors is just starting to get at everyone. It seems as if NOTHING is right for them. Then again, they get yelled at by the governors office if they don't make sure every I is dotted and every T is crossed so they must be under a lot of stress too! Excrement does indeed roll downhill!!
