Staff coming in on day to prep d2ds

Post by celerycelery »

We have a few staff that will come in and prep NEXT WEEKS :no no d2d's on their day off. Its usually a saturday morning they come in but some will come on a friday to collate them etc for the following week. They are in non uniform at the office. Would you ignore it and just shake your head, tell them to their faces, or tell a manager (but not give any names) who can address the whole office about it. The managers have long gone when they come in which is probably half the problem.

Totally agree mate , it's same here in my office and everyone out for themselves !! Comradeship gone - the amount of two faced people unbelievable and it seems management have turned staff against each other - they must love that as it takes the focus off of them whilst everyone arguing and bickering ! Sad to see this but it won't change now ! Fools .

Guy who prepped (or didnt, depending on how quick the little Hans Moleman looking mofo wanted to get out) my walk took all next week's enormous banded bundles of d2d out with him to prep at home over the w/e. He walked right past the gaffers as the bundles were piled so high he couldnt see in front of him, they didnt bat an eye.
