At my job I’m not officially a supervisor in charge of anyone. But my word does go a long way. We have a new guy that I’ve been trying to train and he is hands down the worst employee I’ve ever had to deal with. I won’t go into details but let’s just say he’s untrainable and the laziest person Ive ever met. With my suggestion/insistence the powers that be are going to let him go. However, they are going to wait until after the holidays to do it. Meanwhile he is costing us thousands of dollars every day he’s there.
What are your thoughts on firing people around the holidays. Would you wait until after or do you think it should be done right away regardless of the holiday?
