Reddit userAway_Locations new manager accused them of being a time thief and banned the employee from working overtime.
But because of this decision, projects started falling apart and the company beganlosing money.
Luckily, they found a way to come out on top.
She was not at all qualified, the Redditor explained toBored Panda.
And another manager also told me there isnt really any training for managers/leadership by corporate.
Away_Location said they noticed signs the manager wanted to write them up well before the conversation with HR.
If a project wasnt done, shed want to have a discussion on why.
Id show her screenshots of my outbox.
When you see the signs, you start covering your butt, the employee added.
I once had her tell me to watch my back.
And I could tell HR was on her side from the beginning.
Id jokingly refuse to do work for other managers but they knew I was goofing.
Im in my 30s and own a house.
Im not having sex in a cramped office.
I had another coworker say my manager talked down to her.
Overall, she rubbed people the wrong way.
Instead, focus on performing at 100% when you show up.
you might progress based on your merit.
Researchshows that recognition is fundamental to the engagement and retention of top talent and the profitability of organizations.
The Redditors new manager failed at this.
Luckily, the higher-ups saw the situation clearly.
Im sure the official version says she wasnt a good fit, they said.
She quit on her own volition but I wondered if there was pressure.
After the incident, there was obviously animosity between us.
It was like she took a shot at me and missed.
You cant ignore or forget that.
I helped managers make a lot of money and she attacked their goose that lays the golden eggs.
I feel there was pressure from other managers for her to quit.
These people bought me a years worth of chocolate on Christmas, so they appreciate me.
After she left, I got a bigger window office and a pretty decent raise.
I have a nicer office than a lot of managers and Im hourly.
It felt like the GM wanted to apologize but not admit guilt.
Im still distrustful of HR, though.
