But since you are fretting about this one, it would probably be a good idea to resolve the trust and support issues your are harboring in your own heart before you attempt to lead a team, which will only magnify the impact of your own issues. |
the reason I am asking this question is not because of any trust issues I may or may not have. please quit assuming that!
Why I ask the question is from my experience as an employee (for now in the future I plan to own my own business) is that the managers and business owners over me have already speant their time "building a trust filled team with strong talent" and are all the sudden blindsided by the massive amounts of workplace snitches they have accidently hired. This leads them to not know what the hell to do in that type of situation.
I will give a prime example of something that happened to me personally.
Anyways, my motto has always been "leave your attitude at the door".
I was working at the walmart bakery. There was this girl there named "Amy" (not her real name) that had a real attitude problem and had tendencies towarda bullying. She also had a flaring temper and was known to throw temper tantrums all the time. (dont assume I am making these accusations---I had other ppl in the bakery also witness her temper tantrums). management did nothing about Amy even though others in the bakery (not me) had personally went to management to complain about her. Amy had been working at walmart for 1½ years...
Anyways to make a long story short I called her on her attitude problem mid temper tantrum and she responded by forcefully physically pushing the sharp edge of a rusted stainless steel breadcart right across my shins. It hurt like a f u c k er, I wont lie. I went thru the motions filing a formal complaint--but management later on decided that I was at fault and that I was to blame for the entire incident even tho Amy was the one started throwing the temper tantrum. (i POLITELY called her on her temper tantrum telling her to leave her attitude at the dooor.)
---------------------------------
there was (and still is) a workplace snitch there at the walmart bakery that worked her way up to department manager of the bakery thru her constant snitching--again management wont do a damn thing about it.
I wanna know how I can deal with it. what to say/do about the snitch and workplace bully, to let them know I will not tolerate it whatsoever.
