So I work at a hotel and currently we lost half our housekeeping staff bc they got sick of putting up with the housekeeping managers BS. They had gone to the GM several times about it, but they did nothing, so they left.
Now the front desk manager has been having issues between one of my coworkers before having issues with me and the other night shift worker. He hasn't learned the operating software, allegedly hides in one of the private meeting rooms all day, and when problems pop up, he will literally tell workers to wait to see if it self resolves so he can put it off for after he's gone home and whoever is left can fix it instead. Plus he's terrible at communicating and is afraid of confrontation.
Despite this, the GM is acting like me and my coworkers are the problem. You would think that if 1 person is having problems with everyone else, then you would think maybe that person is the problem, but apparently not. It makes me wonder if there's some kind of incentive or penalty that comes with firing a manager that isn't involved with regular workers (I think all the managers are salary while we're all hourly). Or maybe it's just a cultural thing that managers just close rank anytime they get pushback from their workers?
