However, the expert adds that personal issues aren’t a free pass for ongoing unprofessional behavior. “If it starts disrupting the team, there need to be clear expectations and a plan to course-correct. Compassion and accountability can coexist, but it’s strong leadership that’ll find the balance. And that starts with leading by example. If a manager is going to call out unprofessional behavior, they’d better hold themselves to the same standard.”

Recently had the owner of the company brag about his house and condo in front of all of us employees when another employee asked him if he was affected by the LA fires. It was the most unprofessional, tone deaf, unnecessary comment I had heard, especially during a tragedy. I can keep going but I ended up leaving the company a week later. I can’t believe there are still bosses … uhhh people, that are that crappy and lacking in situational awareness.

Misconduct and abuse from higher ups, bullying coworkers/peers, scapegoating

s.witch.y Report

Having to cover for my boss every other Monday because she was hungover and called out. Being raised hell because I asked for a week of (unpaid) vacation time months in advance. Cliques / cattiness and drama at work for no reason. The spa industry is kind of like reliving high school all over again and if you try to set boundaries and don’t kiss a*s you’re immediately pegged as rude and unlikable.

The amount of petty stealing. “Oh it doesn’t matter if I take paper and other office supplies”. It’s just the same as shoplifting.

You got an hour? You can tell when the managers are sexing each other. Baby daddy trying to fight the new dude and all three work there. Threatening security because they have to screen you every time you come in. Stealing clothes and being dumb enough to wear it on the job you stole it from! Promoting h*es who just started. Promoting illiterate people. Managers getting mad because certain people don’t disclose their sex life. On the phone more than doing their job. Answering the phone stupidly.
