The manager (which makes me suspicious bc she didn't say this right away she waited til like 4pm to tell me even tho I got there at 10am yesterday). She told me I “almost caused 3 people to quit” basically last Thursday I hung out with my 2 friends who also work here (food place) one of my friends is having an issue with 2 managers (not this woman) and 1 coworker just saying all this rude stuff to her and behind her back, saying she “smells” WTF? And she doesn't, they are saying it to be rude.
On Thursday she told me all of this and all i said to her (in person, while hanging out) said “i'm so sick of how those 2 managers act and I feel you on that coworker she's super rude.” All my friend did was tell the old manager we had (he left last week as he got transfered to another of the locations of the food place) that she was quitting bc of how those 3 people treat her.
She told me she did not mention any names but told him (old manager) I and our other friend who works there knows too. how is that my fault she and 2 of our mutual friends we hung out with almost quit?
The manager (woman) told me yesterday with a smirk in her eyes that this “was my only warning and that I'd get fired if it happened again.” To which I told her “This isn't even my issue, I haven't been talking about people behind their backs.” (Which she blamed me and blamed 3 people almost quit.
I then told her “i don't care” after she said my written up sheet will always be in my file here. I told her “i don't care as i'm not doing this forever and i'm just doing this until i can do the career i want and just doing this to earn money.” Then she said “you should care” i told her i didn't bc i had nothing to do with the reason she was writing me up. She told me the old manager told her to write me up WTF saying that a bunch of coworkers were telling him i talk behind the other 2 managers back.
First off that is a huge lie. I only talk to my one friend(the one who wanted to quit) and our mutual friend who is also on board and is angry about this womans lies about me. She (manager) also said “you kids just want to make friends when i come into work” WTF she's mad i have 2 friends here and maybe assumes we talk about how management is (on our own time when we hangout outside of work)
What would you do in this situation?
