It’s not my problem they can’t keep any of the people they hire and train. And shouldn’t this decision have involved me? I’m planning a meeting with my current manager on Monday but I’m just seeking advise on how to approach this because I’m concerned my emotions will get the best of me and I’ll dramatically quit instead.
