........or St. Devote set free. ;)
Had a 'great' start to the week this morning. - On arrival at work I was greeted with an e-mail from head office. They have apparently received a letter of complaint from WINZ (Works and Income NZ (our unemployment office)) A trainee of mine who stopped coming to course (funded by WINZ) had her benefit cut for not complying with her contract (being at the course) to justify herself and get her benefit back she accused me of several indiscretions including the use of foul language, passive-agresive bullying etc etc, as a reason she didn't go to course. Unfortunately for me everything WINZ clients say to WINZ is believed 100%, so I am facing a dicsiplinary hearing regarding this, and WINZ will be pressuring head office to replace me. - Have a nice week at work!
Maybe you should just come clean and admit it.
Just kidding dawg! :p:
:) If I was going to bully someone, it wouldn't be passive-aggressive, it would be aggressive-psychotic
Sorry to hear this. :s
But according to my excellent memory:
Q gadjo " What do you think it's the worst thing about you? "
A anfield " I can be quite direct with people who annoy me. i.e. any of my clients/students/trainees... who don't smell fresh when they arrive in my office/classroom will be told quite bluntly that they smell like a camel has peed in their armpits.... that kind of thing."
(Bibliography: "Interview the person below you" page 441)
Someone who interfaces with others in their daily task, especially in a position of authority (instructor or manager), must learn to manage a wide variety of personalities and physical characteristics in a sensitive and diplomatic manner.
Saying someone smells of camel pee, I’m afraid, is somewhat tactless and could probably be handled in a different manner.
In honesty, that was a tongue in cheek comment in a 'fun' forum, not a direct out-take from life.
I have been doing this job for 6 years and this is the first time I have had an issue with anyone. If I was a tactless beast I wouldn't have been in my job this long.
