my manager actively stops us from doing good work so he can micromanage, and then complains when we aren't motivated to do good work, and dismisses us anytime we tell him how we feel.
Hire a narcissist to manage quality and product development. They will do anything to make themselves the center of attention and refuse to listen to bad news. This becomes worse when their bosses are in another location. The further away they are the longer the narcissist brings down the company.
Also blindly promoting people to manager position just because they been in a company for a long time and are good friends with managers. Is the most common widespread bad stratigies!!! Lot of them arent aware of work laws. Lot of them underestimate that lawsuits can happen Dont know how to behave themselves in a way its legal work laws wise and defusing of situation with certain employees Before promoting anyone to manage. There should be work laws exam. Behaviour test. Litteraly iq test. Administration skills test Cause its not because someone has workes 3 years in your company that he is gonna be a great manager
This fits in nicely with the idea of quiet quitting. This is the idea that you still come in and still do your job but you no longer jump after the idea that you must work crazy overtime and be constantly at the bidding and whims of your employer. To do what you are paid to do and do it well but draw boundaries. Employers who demand excessive hustle culture earn employees who quiet quit.
1.)Writing employees up for being 4 minutes late on one hand, but then expecting your employees to tolerate unexpected, last second changes to their leave times at the force of discipline... 2.)Allowing egotistical supervisors to rampage the workspace looking for petty infractions... 3.) Setting unrealistic deadlines or expectations during vacation season, or when you know that you are severely shorthanded with key components of staffing.
The company that I am leaving has good pay but very little perks to the job, unrealistic expectations, and have the most toxic management team I have ever seen. The turnover has doubled,
Yep, I'm also looking for a way out of a place that expects me to work overtime and weekends for free... but at the end of the year the owner of the company sends out an email that says there will be no increases or bonuses. This is not a small operation but a international business. Also a toxic work environment that treats you good or bad depending on the opinion of one person. And if that person dislikes you for some reason everyone (even people that have nothing to do with your work) withdraw and keep their distance from you.
I left a company who got too involved in my personal life, elicit volunteer work without pay, everyone who was higher up looked miserable, the boss didn’t.Ike being a boss and was passive aggressively insulting and called that “fun”, the business was trying to create a family dynamic with all its dysfunctional family dynamics, etc.
You’ll love thos one: finf the most unproductive person in the department. Promote him as supervisor over the people who have been carrying the workload for years. Divert all pay raises and bonuses to him and tell the producers that they will have to perform better in order to deserve future bonuses and raises.
This is a common practice. Promote those who are useless or detrimental in the group. Productive employees are too valuable in current roles. This breeds apathy & contempt. The entire group suffers.
I have trouble sleeping because I stress out about having to go to work the next day, I wake up every hour or so every night, in my section it's just me and three bosses/partners, watching over me, I cant even serve a customer in peace, if a customer asks me a question such as "have you got xyz" the boss next to me will chime in before I have a chance to respond to the person. I do my job well but I am mentally exhausted and I am on the lookout for something else, I hope they go broke and I hope they spend all their profits on medical expenses!
@@juliovillagran4105 Savings go fast, much faster than you think. My rule of thumb is to have savings for at least 1 year before you even think about quitting... and unfortunately alot of people don't have that luxury because they don't earn that much. How do you save up 12 months worth your salary if you just manage to make ends meet month to month. This I think is another way for companies to keep their employees loyal, make sure they make enough money just to survive... and yes making $200 000 per year might make you middle class or above middle class depending on where you live but you are still not wealthy. I'm talking about people who earn more than $500 000 per year and they are really the people that are truly free and truly have choices in life.
You wanna take the stupid rules concept to its logical extreme? Establish 700 rules, protocols and standards that nobody at the company, including the management, has access to a concrete list of. Then, enforce said rules and standards arbitrarily, inconsistently or sometimes not at all depending entirely on transparent and unapologetic nepotism.
I was about to be hired at a company but they gave us over 50 sheets to sign. While reading the documents I noticed that I was limiting my ability to be hired at other facilities within 25-40 miles surrounding the hiring facility😳. The employee handbook was so large that it was online and was 300 pages. I was laughed at by Administration. So😕 I took all of the signed documentation with ME and left.
What's even worse than not recognizing for good performance is not doing so for years, then recognizing them suddenly for some trivial BS. It comes off as massively insincere. Like the manager just learned the technique, but still has no clue what the team member actually does.
Treating everyone equally pisses me off. Lazy co workers tell me they do a bad job on purpose so they can avoid the hard working positions. I hate being called one of the boys at work. I do not like being affiliated with those lazy stooges.
These people have been spying on my job. We've got people lined up at the starting line just waiting and looking for another job to come along so they can leave.
All good, his prized rockstar is now someone else's treasure. Just like the boss before lost me to him & wasn't happy with it. Now he gets to be unhappy with the loss.
Nepotism and the click network of promoting makes me leave. Also An entire division of blacks not promoted in decades while less experienced whites get promoted makes me leave as well.
Where I work, there are two of us who do the lions share of the work. There is me, and another colleague who is black. A new manager has arrived, and is demanding excessive hustle, and is creating a toxic environment. The boss has had the district boss in to pick at everything my black coworker does. At the same time they have cut my hours, and only give me enough hours to cover my payroll deductions. There is no money left for gas, food, or pay Bill's. At the same time my black coworker has found another job, and I am now going to have to start looking. I also was passed over for another position when I applied in the same department. They chose a former employee who left the company. Both of us have been mistreated.
I am getting to the point that I want to leave.. I have been with this company over 15 years. I have been very flexible. Now that I want some flexibility getting close to retirement, I am getting no flexibility in return. There are very few qualified people in my field, that are in my geographical area, so they cannot even get candidates to apply for open positions (when they advertised it). My thoughts are that they are either 1. not willing to pay enough for this level of experience/qualifications or 2. not willing to bring in someone and train them or 3. not willing to pay for relocation from other parts of the country. I am getting burned out, I asked for 1 day off a week and I am getting the standard 'can't cover your hours' and 'we are on a hiring freeze' when in reality I think they just don't want to think outside the box and find some creative ways to deal with those of us that are ready to take a break. In the past, every single time someone has left, they have given AMPLE notice, and yet no one gets hired for MONTHS, putting a LOT of pressure on those of us still there. I have paid off all my debts, closing on a land sale and refinancing my house in about 30 days, then I am going to tell them instead of ask.
He was supposed to pay me $50/month for being the only employee out of 4stores who never called off or left early in over a yr(whole time I was there). Excellent attendance on top of the other job hrs too(80hr+ wks)...all good, karma's a bitch & he's going to regret overlooking the only one who actually did their job, did it well, & quickly too. Now someone else will have an outstanding employee!
1. Management is ineffective and wasting my time so I am unable to achieve expectations. 2. I have outgrown what they have to offer. 3.The pay is insufficient. 4. I got a much better offer that allows me to work at my real capacity. 5. The boss is a sociopath/psychopath and upper management does nothing about it despite massive complaints.
You didn't mention that a lot of your top performers don't follow the safety rules and cut corners. So a lot of times the managers don't even know who the top performers are. I work with top performers that got killed on a job due to not following the safety rules.
If, and when you choose to share your vision of where you want to go with the company, you also need to show the employees that they them self will also prosper with the growth of the company. Cutting wages, or freezing them, one week and the following week upper management or the owners show up to work driving new cars, are not signs of future growth for an employee.
Tolerating a non-performer, in a department of high performers, as an equal despite continuous accommodations making the job easier and less demanding. An anchor for sure. A drag on moral and cultivated a departmental culture of WTF.
Establish a grading system for work performed. Have an outside source do the grading, and have that person constantly flip flop on their comments so that you never get a high grade. Great way to deny giving your employees a raise. That’s one of several reasons why I’m leaving my current job and going to work at a place that doesn’t run their business like elementary school.
Sounds like that manager worked for one of the credit bureaus. Always an excuse for why your credit score is lower than it should be. Too much debt and too many loans, or not enough loans or credit cards. Tricky metrics to benefit the bankers.
Thank you for stating that point on recognizing their accomplishments. My current agency only does a company wide slack message to congratulate people, but it's honestly not enough with the stressful nature of our work environment. I've worked for previous companies where bonuses were allotted to people who were recognized for going above and beyond, exuding company values. Even a celebratory cake in the office! I'm not asking for a slice of cake or a pizza party, but even that would be more than what my agency does for their employees.
I quit after 6 yrs someone bought the company decreased my pay without telling me then after 2 weeks they wanted to fix my pay back but then it was to late
I hate that the most misbehaving people are the ones that get promoted most of the time just because they make thier managers look good the managers need to make sure all their employees look good because that’s your job
Nursing has good employees; BUT the greed of the corporation and the lack of safety be it emotional and physical abuse by physicians and patients causes nurses to quit. Then there are the lazy trifling people who need to be fired but for some reason are simply left as warm bodies taking up time for 8-12 hours😔.
One way to make a good employee leave is fire him! Here's a good vague line of rhetoric to tell him: "We appreciate all your hard work and contributions to our business, but we plan to move in a different direction. We've decided that someone else will be a better fit for this plan".
That is a common generic term that I have heard numerous times during the last 35 years while working at numerous employers. People I knew at more than one company who were terminated have told me when they were let go were all told this at more than one company. Just another dirty excuse they can come up with when they do not have anything else to use against you.
The company I work for fired my boss about two months ago. He is a great guy and has been there for 10 years. He was told that he wasn't the right fit for the job and he was replaced by a 23 year old guy who worked there for 3 years and just happens to be very good friends with the human resource director!
Sometimes, what gets good employees to leave is allowing bullies and narcissists to rampage the workplace. In fact, if you get a bully in there that's Pat theologically in envious and insecure, he will deliberately target good employees to be fired because he's envious and feels threatened by them, so he'll spread lies all over the place bread lies to the boss. Slander is reputation to the co-worker's ice speci've been through it 3 different times you're smarter than I am. You gotta get fired, you're prettier than I am. You gotta get fired how dare people like you more than Me, I'm gonna harass him until he leaves. That is the freaking elephant in the room that no one ever wants. To address is some c*** for brains. Narcissistic bully feeling insecure and envious and targeting out all the best and brightest employees with lies and false accusations and smear campaigns. Because your presence makes me feel bad well. Tough, not cupcake, but yeah, it's not just that the good employees leave. It's they're often pushed out by these narcissistic statistic envious malevolent piece as a dog vomit.
I got ‘contacted’ a few weeks ago by my boss (‘I have something for you in my office’) and HR (now, ‘People and Culture’) for petty things such as bringing in snacks and ‘oversharing’ houseplants (to give to someone; as they have just renovated a small room for meeting or dining, any plants I would bring in would not fit in with the new decor). I have a ‘training video’ from P & C tomorrow on God knows what. They also didn’t like that I would occasionally talk to a few people for a minute or so, even though those and other people would talk to each other, and exclude me. I am currently looking for another position.
I was the highest performing employee in my school and have been recognized with major teaching awards three times. Then I got a superintendent who was intimidated by my success and targeted me. They broke every rule in the good leadership book, including projecting their unethical behavior as if I was the cause. I left, and they acted like having award-winning teachers isn't a priority for them. This is emblematic of a systemic problem in education: people going into administration are often supremely underqualified from a leadership standpoint. Bad ones can stay in the system by making people too afraid to question them.
My bosses were in a toxic cluster B relationship. NPD & BPD - they refused to work and the BPD female was manipulative and tried to sleep with everyone in the store and did drugs on site. And when you bring up issues its "harsh criticism" and it makes them mad. I was top performer and no longer wanted to be around the chaos.
Treat them like kids and ask them to take ubers to get to work "in time" on a low salary. Say they are rude for telling you directly what they think instead of sugar coating stuff. Say "We know nothing about you, you are so quiet" when they do their work and do not get involved in the gossip.
Too many top performers don't get compensated because their managers think they're satisfied. They do the work and don't complain. Other workers that are more demanding need to be paid more to stay. Then one day, the top performer asks for more and is refused because management thinks they'll stay without getting more. That's happened to me several times. Offering the raise after I've resigned won't work. That just means I was worth what I asked for, but management was essentially stealing from me and wanted to continue stealing from me.
The company that hires and promotes the condesending employee who bullies their way to the top - you deserve to fail :) Signed, Good, collaborative staff
Owners micromanaging Managers. Devaluing managers in front of co-workers. Owners who don't communicate in a healthy way. Ie. Reducing workers shifts to nothing then texting them to pick up their last check. :-/ Wants total submission and unwilling to hear an alternative opinion. afraid of conflict. Overworking employees, lying to the team, and needing to hear themselves talk constantly. Requiring subordinates to give constant validation to them. Also...I'm an introvert...so I would hate bells and celebrations. Lol I like to be left alone to do my job, but that is just unheard of in a corporate setting.
Working them long hours, no days off, poor wages, no breaks, no benefits. CEOs need term limits. We use to have a 40 hr work week. We need to return to this and offer medical benefits.
I spent time reading these comments. My God what have these Greedy Companies/Bosses done. I feel sorry for the workers who work hard and just get NO Thank you! Get Pushed even harder. All so these Greedy Grinch jerks can buy a bigger house or another toy. Wow!
I don't think it will get to that point for me, but who knows? My boss is my one and only mine trap at work. My boss was upset I had signed up for a one-person shift. I'll admit I'm kind of a slow learner and do much better with a helping hand and guide, but come on, that's no excuse for being insensitive. One of our student leader's responsibilities is organizing who works which shifts on the schedule, and my boss scolded him for not noticing I had signed up for a one-person shift. When she asked him if she thought I could do the shift, I answered for him with a firm "yes," because I felt belittled by her. She said she didn't think so, was all _"I've told you not to sign up for shifts by yourself, I've been very clear about that, I don't know how much clearer I can get for you to listen"_ (something like that, so I'm not perfectly quoting her), and she told me I need someone there to give me instructions and guide me. I regretfully didn't stand up for myself, because I was intimidated. Well, now I harbor a huge amount of resentment toward her, and I pretty much don't care about her anymore. Of course, I can't quit just because of her, because the job itself is actually beneficial. I just wish she didn't work there anymore.
Not paying enough. Even if I’m in a great enviroment if it’s not paying my bills or if I’m struggling I’m going to be looking for better work or ways to get to better work
This is the only thing that matters to a true performer. This guy was almost completely full of shit. I know people that are motivated by the things he said, and they are about hell and gone from top performers. More like attention-seeking drama queens that don't want to do any real work and make it harder for those who do.
Here's one I just left: I stayed two months but should have left the first week when the outgoing Admin. Asst. told me that the boss spies on staff with cameras that pick up audio. The sales guy was out on stress leave (and not returning), three other Admins had been tried and they left. And this woman who had been there 4 years while the bully boss built the business up. He told her he tries to make people quit so he doesn't have to pay severance. She said that he yelled at her and tasked one of the admin hires to spy on her (the admin person told her this later). He badmouths employees to other employees and in front of the whole office. He is an incredibly insecure narcissist and I'm so glad I left. I was getting sick - not eating much, started biting my nails again, trouble sleeping, etc. Now feeling better.
I have one , how about giving the hard working employees other people’s work. Hard workers are always punished. And employers wonder why they have trouble filling positions or keeping them filled.
Hmm funny to fall over this good topic, 6 years ago i quit my job for the same reasons as you mention here IE where doing will but the people there were slagging and always had sick days and a attitude of duck all where hold a hand over but when it came to days with a angry boss we all had to have a privet song in the office
A good worker will quit when you start screwing me on my overtime. I went through all my paychecks for this year. They shorted me 300.00. When you live on a budget. Thats a lot of money. They pissed me off. This was my first time ever to quit with giving them noticed.
Free game if you are or think you are a genuinely good person and want to make the world a better place you’re better off starting a business or work from home because jobs nowadays will keep the worst employees just because they make the managers look good and these are the same people customers will always complain about
Some good tips, but joining on Facebook is a hard NO for me. Work is work, personal life is personal. None of your business what your workmates/direct reports do outside work unless they want to share.
There is a job bid up for a managerial position. So employees that bid on this job did not get the job. They went outside the company. Here is the thing. They hired a former boss that went to the competition?? Since the wave of people that quit including this person our numbers went up. The new manager had absolutely nothing to do with these numbers. I stated my concerns to management. There is going to be a huge wave of employees leaving. I really do not blame them!
Area managers want to wake up to managers and team leaders capabilities , of workplace mobbing and the types of Covert bullying , needs to be more awareness of all types of bullying and toxic workplaces , that might only affect a few people .
KPI's create a toxic environment where employees fight over sales Or managers only focus on KPI's and the big picture of quality product goes out the window.
I said I wanted to be treated equally as the top performer (but only because I believed I was a top performer as well). My boss obviously doesn't think so.
Thanking employees for hard work with a text message or a 5 buck movie ticket is better than nothing, but not much better, especially if they worked longer hours etc. If you recognise real hard work with a pisstake reward, you won’t get it a second time. Why not give them a free day off? If it’s monetary it needs to be substantial, what about new headphones or something with some significant value, to show you value their significant contribution. Reward hard work or you’ll stop receiving it.
5:17, You don't need to know what the employees are doing outside in their private lives. You just being nosey and will use anything as an excuse to let them go, they aren't your friends or business partners so relax. 5:46 Your vision doesn't work with people because they know they just making you rich and you just telling them lies with the vision crap. You hire them for their hourly skill and thats where it ends. A great leader eats last, who's the leader of the house when is time to eat? YOUR MOM, she sits last at the table after everyone is served their meal, and everyone at the table is willing to die for her.
Exactly. My boss still hasn't learned that I won't be offended if he doesn't ask about my weekend (why do they never ask about your evenings anyway)? He was also so busy setting goals for the business that he neglected to ask what my personal goals were.
Micromanaging when a supervisor constantly checking in on you nitpicking your work is a main reason to make employees leave😠😠😠😡😡😡😡
Especially when they micromanage their best employees leaving the bad employees to run rampant
Yep, I had a nitpicking boss who lost it for the tiniest, minuscule infraction. I left at 90 days of new employment
Decent managers. Everyone knows the saying 'people don't leave jobs people leave managers' .
my manager actively stops us from doing good work so he can micromanage, and then complains when we aren't motivated to do good work, and dismisses us anytime we tell him how we feel.

How to make them leave? oh, it's simple, lie to them, don't treat them good, and don't give them raises.

So relatable and it’s annoying especially when the rule changes every 5 seconds
In a situation of equal compensation, for all. The pat on the back, may feel like a slap to the face.

so true I often find that the veterans on the job take shortcuts to maximize efficiency
If, and when you choose to share your vision of where you want to go with the company, you also need to show the employees
that they them self will also prosper with the growth of the company. Cutting wages, or freezing them, one week and the following week
upper management or the owners show up to work driving new cars, are not signs of future growth for an employee.
This! 💯
Tolerating a non-performer, in a department of high performers, as an equal despite continuous accommodations making the job easier and less demanding. An anchor for sure. A drag on moral and cultivated a departmental culture of WTF.
Establish a grading system for work performed. Have an outside source do the grading, and have that person constantly flip flop on their comments so that you never get a high grade. Great way to deny giving your employees a raise. That’s one of several reasons why I’m leaving my current job and going to work at a place that doesn’t run their business like elementary school.
Sounds like that manager worked for one of the credit bureaus. Always an excuse for why your credit score is lower than it should be. Too much debt and too many loans, or not enough loans or credit cards. Tricky metrics to benefit the bankers.
same as my company
My FORMER boss did a bang up job with this.
Thank you for stating that point on recognizing their accomplishments. My current agency only does a company wide slack message to congratulate people, but it's honestly not enough with the stressful nature of our work environment. I've worked for previous companies where bonuses were allotted to people who were recognized for going above and beyond, exuding company values. Even a celebratory cake in the office! I'm not asking for a slice of cake or a pizza party, but even that would be more than what my agency does for their employees.
I wish you were my boss! The company I work for needs a consult so badly especially QC,
OMG! YOU ARE SPOT ON!! EVERYTHING YOU SAID IS 👍 ❤
I quit after 6 yrs someone bought the company decreased my pay without telling me then after 2 weeks they wanted to fix my pay back but then it was to late
RULES ARE FOR FOOLS. Agreement and integrity go a lot farther. Get to know the standards of your players.
I hate that the most misbehaving people are the ones that get promoted most of the time just because they make thier managers look good the managers need to make sure all their employees look good because that’s your job
Thank you for this, so affirming.
Exactly thank you 😊
Nursing has good employees; BUT the greed of the corporation and the lack of safety be it emotional and physical abuse by physicians and patients causes nurses to quit. Then there are the lazy trifling people who need to be fired but for some reason are simply left as warm bodies taking up time for 8-12 hours😔.
Agreed
And you know what, I actually saw this happen in a series called daredevil where a hospital was being run by ppl who just cared only about the money
One way to make a good employee leave is fire him! Here's a good vague line of rhetoric to tell him: "We appreciate all your hard work and contributions to our business, but we plan to move in a different direction. We've decided that someone else will be a better fit for this plan".
That is a common generic term that I have heard numerous times during the last 35 years while working at numerous employers. People I knew at more than one company who were terminated have told me when they were let go were all told this at more than one company. Just another dirty excuse they can come up with when they do not have anything else to use against you.
@@ericknoblauch9195 Pretty sure you've got rights. After two years
The company I work for fired my boss about two months ago. He is a great guy and has been there for 10 years. He was told that he wasn't the right fit for the job and he was replaced by a 23 year old guy who worked there for 3 years and just happens to be very good friends with the human resource director!
This is Great…Thank You
Sometimes, what gets good employees to leave is allowing bullies and narcissists to rampage the workplace. In fact, if you get a bully in there that's Pat theologically in envious and insecure, he will deliberately target good employees to be fired because he's envious and feels threatened by them, so he'll spread lies all over the place bread lies to the boss. Slander is reputation to the co-worker's ice speci've been through it 3 different times you're smarter than I am. You gotta get fired, you're prettier than I am. You gotta get fired how dare people like you more than Me, I'm gonna harass him until he leaves. That is the freaking elephant in the room that no one ever wants. To address is some c*** for brains. Narcissistic bully feeling insecure and envious and targeting out all the best and brightest employees with lies and false accusations and smear campaigns. Because your presence makes me feel bad well. Tough, not cupcake, but yeah, it's not just that the good employees leave. It's they're often pushed out by these narcissistic statistic envious malevolent piece as a dog vomit.
Been there!
So true.
We need to exclude ClusterB subhumans from the workplace.
I got ‘contacted’ a few weeks ago by my boss (‘I have something for you in my office’) and HR (now, ‘People and Culture’) for petty things such as bringing in snacks and ‘oversharing’ houseplants (to give to someone; as they have just renovated a small room for meeting or dining, any plants I would bring in would not fit in with the new decor). I have a ‘training video’ from P & C tomorrow on God knows what.
They also didn’t like that I would occasionally talk to a few people for a minute or so, even though those and other people would talk to each other, and exclude me.
I am currently looking for another position.
Get the hell out of there. They don't know what they're doing.
Great content!
Needless busy work required by management kills morale.
great video thank you
nail on the head.
I was the highest performing employee in my school and have been recognized with major teaching awards three times. Then I got a superintendent who was intimidated by my success and targeted me. They broke every rule in the good leadership book, including projecting their unethical behavior as if I was the cause. I left, and they acted like having award-winning teachers isn't a priority for them. This is emblematic of a systemic problem in education: people going into administration are often supremely underqualified from a leadership standpoint. Bad ones can stay in the system by making people too afraid to question them.
Typical narcissist
My bosses were in a toxic cluster B relationship. NPD & BPD - they refused to work and the BPD female was manipulative and tried to sleep with everyone in the store and did drugs on site. And when you bring up issues its "harsh criticism" and it makes them mad. I was top performer and no longer wanted to be around the chaos.
Treat them like kids and ask them to take ubers to get to work "in time" on a low salary. Say they are rude for telling you directly what they think instead of sugar coating stuff. Say "We know nothing about you, you are so quiet" when they do their work and do not get involved in the gossip.
When you work a stressful job and say you need a mental health day and your boss gives you more work.
How to make them leave? Overwork them and pay them in compliments not money
Too many top performers don't get compensated because their managers think they're satisfied. They do the work and don't complain. Other workers that are more demanding need to be paid more to stay. Then one day, the top performer asks for more and is refused because management thinks they'll stay without getting more. That's happened to me several times. Offering the raise after I've resigned won't work. That just means I was worth what I asked for, but management was essentially stealing from me and wanted to continue stealing from me.
The company that hires and promotes the condesending employee who bullies their way to the top - you deserve to fail :)
Signed,
Good, collaborative staff
Owners micromanaging Managers. Devaluing managers in front of co-workers. Owners who don't communicate in a healthy way. Ie. Reducing workers shifts to nothing then texting them to pick up their last check. :-/ Wants total submission and unwilling to hear an alternative opinion. afraid of conflict. Overworking employees, lying to the team, and needing to hear themselves talk constantly. Requiring subordinates to give constant validation to them. Also...I'm an introvert...so I would hate bells and celebrations. Lol I like to be left alone to do my job, but that is just unheard of in a corporate setting.
Great video
My boss didn't want "good" workers. She wanted people that she could exploit.
So does this guy.
Working them long hours, no days off, poor wages, no breaks, no benefits. CEOs need term limits. We use to have a 40 hr work week. We need to return to this and offer medical benefits.
A lot of managers and companies forget it there work force make the money for that company.
I'M READY TO GO TO WORK IN YOUR COMPANY! WAY TO GO!
I call BS.
I spent time reading these comments. My God what have these Greedy Companies/Bosses done. I feel sorry for the workers who work hard and just get NO Thank you! Get Pushed even harder. All so these Greedy Grinch jerks can buy a bigger house or another toy. Wow!
Thank you
Keep this philosophy to your children, appreciate
I don't think it will get to that point for me, but who knows? My boss is my one and only mine trap at work. My boss was upset I had signed up for a one-person shift. I'll admit I'm kind of a slow learner and do much better with a helping hand and guide, but come on, that's no excuse for being insensitive. One of our student leader's responsibilities is organizing who works which shifts on the schedule, and my boss scolded him for not noticing I had signed up for a one-person shift. When she asked him if she thought I could do the shift, I answered for him with a firm "yes," because I felt belittled by her. She said she didn't think so, was all _"I've told you not to sign up for shifts by yourself, I've been very clear about that, I don't know how much clearer I can get for you to listen"_ (something like that, so I'm not perfectly quoting her), and she told me I need someone there to give me instructions and guide me. I regretfully didn't stand up for myself, because I was intimidated. Well, now I harbor a huge amount of resentment toward her, and I pretty much don't care about her anymore. Of course, I can't quit just because of her, because the job itself is actually beneficial. I just wish she didn't work there anymore.
Hire your narcissistic college boy nephew and make him the boss while you stand back and let him run.
Not paying enough. Even if I’m in a great enviroment if it’s not paying my bills or if I’m struggling I’m going to be looking for better work or ways to get to better work
This is the only thing that matters to a true performer. This guy was almost completely full of shit. I know people that are motivated by the things he said, and they are about hell and gone from top performers. More like attention-seeking drama queens that don't want to do any real work and make it harder for those who do.
Here's one I just left: I stayed two months but should have left the first week when the outgoing Admin. Asst. told me that the boss spies on staff with cameras that pick up audio. The sales guy was out on stress leave (and not returning), three other Admins had been tried and they left. And this woman who had been there 4 years while the bully boss built the business up. He told her he tries to make people quit so he doesn't have to pay severance. She said that he yelled at her and tasked one of the admin hires to spy on her (the admin person told her this later). He badmouths employees to other employees and in front of the whole office. He is an incredibly insecure narcissist and I'm so glad I left. I was getting sick - not eating much, started biting my nails again, trouble sleeping, etc. Now feeling better.
Great
Love this it is so accurate with me I didn’t it is correct 😎
I have one , how about giving the hard working employees other people’s work. Hard workers are always punished. And employers wonder why they have trouble filling positions or keeping them filled.
This! 💯 And then me feeling bad/worried for my security if I refuse to do the work because I'm a hard worker.
Also asking employees to do the work of 2-3 people and refusing to hire help
Translation: poor performances, gossiping, scamming, lying, is the best way to climb the corporate ladder absolutely no morality and no mercy 🤦🏾♂️
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
I would never add office mates even the boss on FB. They are not your friends
Lol u just explained the company I work for.
Hmm funny to fall over this good topic, 6 years ago i quit my job for the same reasons as you mention here IE where doing will but the people there were slagging and always had sick days and a attitude of duck all where hold a hand over but when it came to days with a angry boss we all had to have a privet song in the office
A good worker will quit when you start screwing me on my overtime. I went through all my paychecks for this year. They shorted me 300.00. When you live on a budget. Thats a lot of money. They pissed me off. This was my first time ever to quit with giving them noticed.
Free game if you are or think you are a genuinely good person and want to make the world a better place you’re better off starting a business or work from home because jobs nowadays will keep the worst employees just because they make the managers look good and these are the same people customers will always complain about
Some good tips, but joining on Facebook is a hard NO for me.
Work is work, personal life is personal. None of your business what your workmates/direct reports do outside work unless they want to share.
There is a job bid up for a managerial position. So employees that bid on this job did not get the job. They went outside the company. Here is the thing. They hired a former boss that went to the competition?? Since the wave of people that quit including this person our numbers went up. The new manager had absolutely nothing to do with these numbers. I stated my concerns to management. There is going to be a huge wave of employees leaving. I really do not blame them!
Area managers want to wake up to managers and team leaders capabilities , of workplace mobbing and the types of Covert bullying , needs to be more awareness of all types of bullying and toxic workplaces , that might only affect a few people .
3:00. You have socialist or capitalist management. I'll take the capitalist any day of the week.
Yeah
Hand an employee a gift with one hand and slap them in the face (not literally) with the other.
You “friend” your employees on Facebook?
Creepy. No thanks.
Ok. Salary should be the number one here! Pay people adequately and then they will have fun working lol
KPI's create a toxic environment where employees fight over sales Or managers only focus on KPI's and the big picture of quality product goes out the window.
I said I wanted to be treated equally as the top performer (but only because I believed I was a top performer as well). My boss obviously doesn't think so.
Boss following on Face Book might be a bit cringe.

Thanking employees for hard work with a text message or a 5 buck movie ticket is better than nothing, but not much better, especially if they worked longer hours etc. If you recognise real hard work with a pisstake reward, you won’t get it a second time. Why not give them a free day off? If it’s monetary it needs to be substantial, what about new headphones or something with some significant value, to show you value their significant contribution. Reward hard work or you’ll stop receiving it.
keep a revolving door of lowermangment and never promote from within.
This aged well
5:17, You don't need to know what the employees are doing outside in their private lives. You just being nosey and will use anything as an excuse to let them go, they aren't your friends or business partners so relax. 5:46 Your vision doesn't work with people because they know they just making you rich and you just telling them lies with the vision crap. You hire them for their hourly skill and thats where it ends. A great leader eats last, who's the leader of the house when is time to eat? YOUR MOM, she sits last at the table after everyone is served their meal, and everyone at the table is willing to die for her.
Exactly. My boss still hasn't learned that I won't be offended if he doesn't ask about my weekend (why do they never ask about your evenings anyway)? He was also so busy setting goals for the business that he neglected to ask what my personal goals were.
Yeah! No one likes big brother watching u out of work!
My ex-bosses really want to know.
Exploiter DO IT on PURPOSE !!! It is all politics
Is that what mr tai want?
Continually sharpen our sore??? Huh????
How to Make Your Good Employees Leave? Treat them like shit
This sounds like a miserable place to work 😂😂
