Double-Standards
I've been sick for the past couple days, the symtoms of which I'm not gonna go into for they sound both gross and embarassing, and a coworker/friend of mine brought up this subject:
Whenever I get sick, and my work performance slide, I don't get lectured by the managers, and get assistance when I get overwhelmed. When she gets sick, the managers moan, groan, and scream at her for being a slacker.
Here's the kicker: we both work very hard, and work similar shifts everyday, and have being doing so for a good legnth of time (though, I'm the senior employee since I've been employed at this resataurant for nearly 8 years, and she's been there over a year herself, and I was the one who trained her in the majority of what she knows.)
I told her they have this double-standard...and they are inconsistent with their diciplinary actions, and it's been like that for probably long before I had even filled an application for employment there.
What do you guys think?
