I wish somebody would tell your VP you are wasting internet bandwidth and company time listening to music when you should be working.

Just got "spoken to" by HR telling me I cannot talk to employees that way and that I "deeply offended" the employee.


Sounds like you're not a manager, maybe a supervisor... and you work for a company that has a crappy HR.

I love how many people in this thread act like they work every second of every work day at their job.

I guess it's a fear of being laid off that so many people "act" so damn busy.

Got to work at about 7:20 this morning. Unlock my door, go in my office. One of my staff is already sitting at her desk (clocked in) outside my office and I can hear her discussing everything under the sun and the moon about her boyfriend, makeup tips, food, etc - nothing at all work related. W...

Did you chastise her in front of people or ask her to step into your office? If you did it in front of people, yeah you're an a-hole boss.

I am the "boss" of my company. We aren't in retail and I don't work at McDonald's so I do not care at all what my employees do while they are working as long as they get the work done. We have flexible schedules, too, but you better get the work done. Those deadlines are coming whether you are ready or not and they will tell the story as to how you have been spending your time. I have better things to do than to stare over someone's shoulder all day or worry that they were on the phone or Facebook or something.

This thread didn't exactly turn out the way you thought it would, now did it?



Why would you need validation here if you were truly a real a leader or manager?

Think George Patton ever asked anyone if he was being an a-hole?

He must have been a pretty big a-hole to get HR called on him over something like that.

He could have just said it in a joking way and everything would have been fine. Or you know...just send her an email with some tasks to do for the day.
