OK, because I'm in management, I may step on some toes.... OH WELL!

I like my job, but here are some pet peeves:

Employees that try to get over

1) If you're going to call out sick on the night of the R. Kelly concert ~ at least sound sick!

2) If you're supposed to be out on "sick leave" due to an illness, I should not hear how you're doing hair at the shop across town.

3) If I've warned you at least 3 times, plus given you that final warning, please, I repeat puhleasse do not try to act a fool when you get written up.

4) You and your boyfriend should not call out "sick" on the same day - especially if you work together. The world is not that small.

5) You and your friends should not try to rotate the weeks when your going to have a "death in the family"...

I have more, but I'll stop there.

Outside of those, just the typical paperwork and unreasonable deadlines also gets to be a bit tiresome. I have to pull at least 50 reports a day. However, I may get an email 30 minutes to an hour before a deadline asking me to compile a report to be turned in to upper upper management, while also taking care of the needs of 10-20 employees, and not to mention talking to any customer that feels that they MUST speak to me. Now THAT's hectic.
