Got it, you are one of those guys who walks around with a sandwich board advertising golf sales.

Not relevant. They did something wrong, that is not acceptable.

That the staff had done something wrong.

Clearly their response was unreasonable, hence the dressing down.

The employer does not have to accept their responses.


For the record, I am not a WUM. I own a profitable business turning over around £500,000 per annum and have seen my share of poor employees. Employers are clever people, our instincts are second to none.

Turnover of £500k, that's hardly a great amount. What sort of WDA did you apply last year?

(pauses whilst boverfraud googles to find out what WDA means)......

:cool:

what a load of B******s. if you run retail premises than you are not at them all at the same time. it is your staff that are the front line and are then ones that are pleasant to your customers who become repeat customers. this has nothing to do with you.

Never going to win retailer of the year are you? short cuts in employee rights, would also show ( more than likely) short cuts in health and safety/environmental health practice. That is if you pay min wage and treat staff badly, you are bound to be falling down elsewhere in the business, you can't have one eye on your staff and one on the business at all times. How do you have a day off/go on holidays if you treat your staff in such a way?

BREAKING NEWS!!!

Overlord spotted promoting 'his business'

Enterprise_1701C

My (very ex) boss had a go at me in public, couldn't access a machine with my PIN, so he had a go at me and told me he would let me use his PIN if I admitted to forgetting my number (I NEVER forget numbers, especially that one!). I obviously had to do so, he eventually got around to doing me another PIN, and found out that he had given my issue number to another member of staff who had entered his own PIN. So, it was NOT my fault, I had not forgotten it, HE had messed up and caused untold problems. He NEVER admitted it, he NEVER apologised, and I no longer work there.

Please bear in mind it is not always the staff in the wrong!

if you are in the business you say you are then you DO rely on repeat custom, just like a majority of retail businesses and even service businesses.
be good to customers they will recommend you to others
