Employer Fail - Poor Public Conduct

I saw some pizza photos online earlier today and that brought me back to something I've witnessed some years ago.

I was still pregnant at that time, and my husband and I were planning to see our dentist. Before seeing the dentist, we did what any respectable patient would do, we stopped at a pizza place so we could have a yummy Pesto Pizza and salad with Blue Cheese Dressing lol. The dentist would love that!

Well anyway, while we were waiting for our food, we overheard this customer telling the manager and 2 cooks to take his meal back. Not a surprise, I have done that before myself. But then, the customer told them to get a pen and paper and started lecturing them about how they should cook.

We were shocked, he was quite rude about it and was saying "water boils at this temperature, the meat should marinate this long, how long did you marinate it?" They just stood there looking uncomfortable and then he says "Ok, what temperature does water boil? How hard is it to answer this question? Are you not paying attention?" Then he went on to lecture more.

At some point here, we realized he wasn't just a customer, he was the owner because we heard him say, "I will be back next week to test you, if you cannot answer these simple questions you will be suspended one day of work, do you understand?"

Wow! Really?

I don't have the photo I took, but I can tell you how uncomfortable these guys looked. Now, I understand the man's point and he was right.

My issue lies in the fact that he should have done this in the backroom, and not humiliated his employees in front of the customers.

We were sitting at one table over and heard everything. The cooks were uncomfortable, the waitresses were uncomfortable, and mistakes were being made such as:

  • forgetting to bring us Parmesan cheese,

  • or our water after we asked for some,

  • and our pizza was even cold because it was delivered to our table later than it should have been...

...but honestly, we still left a tip because I think it was the owner's fault and not theirs because he created such an uncomfortable environment.

I have been in various levels of management, and management 101 dictates that when giving correction to an employee, you do it privately. The owner who is so anal about how everything should be done should have thought of this also. Just saying.

Have you ever seen such employers? Rant over.

I'm taking a stab at trying to get along with others. Very simple for certain individuals. Very damn close to impossible with others. One of the advantages of wearing my facemask during this pandemic is to conceal my looks when dealing with stupid people lol. Sorry about that. I truly wish people would simply get along and play nice with others. I mean, seriously. Let's put as much good out into the world as possible and endeavor to be a nice individual.

We can improve.

We can be better.

We got this.

Good evening, my wonderful friends. Wishing you all a friendly day wherever you may be.

One love

I gave witnessed a few of these scenarios. One was at a daiso store. The manager had the nerve to position the employees near the cashiers just so customers would hear everything.

The other one was not at a store but in a church with the priest doing the scolding. He was scolding the elderly ladies assisting us DURING my daughter's binyag pre-pandemic. Those ladies aren't even being paid. They're just volunteering because they love being in the Church. Juicekelerd.

How they think acting that way would make them look good is beyond me.

What the owner of that premises did has no justification, no matter how poorly his employees perform. The only thing that he achieved was to make the employees feel bad and ashamed. And that they won't have the motivation to work better. He also lost customers who will never return to the place.

I loved your comment about wearing the mask and hiding your reaction dealing with silly people, LOL. That's why I love you, my wicked friend!

I have been in this situation before when I was a teacher. I was always passionate about kids whose parents find it difficult to pay their school fees so I do allow them to stay in school.

The owner of the school came around and saw debts, he was very mad and screamed at me in front of the parents and kids, I felt really bad. I knew I messed up but couldn't help seeing those kids out of school and I had to forfeit my salary. I quit the job that day.

Two things. (1) Free blue cheese smell for the dentist. Got it. LOL. (2) You are right. It's management 101 - never embarrass employees in front of other employees or customers. I wonder if this 'owner' has a high turnover problem. Reminded me of my own experiences. You've triggered some unpleasant memoeries. My own rants may be forthcoming. LOL.

Go, my beautiful friend, what a stupid man and disrespect, as you can see that he is an empty person, full of pride, He feels powerful and great humiliating poor employees, if he knows so much because then he does not stay in command of the place and dismisses everyone, it bothers me when people with high rank or power, they want to show off by humiliating those with lower positions, I totally agree with you, There is a saying that I always keep in mind: It is congratulated in public and corrected in private, nobody is interested in knowing what the cook or the waiter did wrong, God, what a bad place, I would never visit that site again, greetings

We unfortunately have such managers at work and no one can say anything cos they threat you with 'I fire you' Many workers have already left for these reasons, others like me can't ... I'm too old and it is very difficult to find another job at my age....... Anyway it's too common in Italy ...
