Things you want to say to employees but can't because you're professional...

Partly as a bit of fun, but mostly as an opportunity to vent...

Employee: "So what's my motivation for getting up at 5am to be on site for 7am?"

What I wanted to say: "Keeping your f-ing job? The fact that we pay you a salary far in excess of what your meagre skillset, dubious intelligence and questionable competence deserves?"

What I actually said: "Your professional pride in the delivery of an excellent service that our clients appreciate."

  • Quite often Im faced with ( as I'm sure most HR are at some point) " I want more money" I haven't had a pay rise in X amount of time.. but then those same people moan about the amount of work they have to do when you try to develop them so they can earn more money...( clearly a lack of understanding but I'm sure most business's will not pay employees for a rate that isn't suited to the job) Would you pay a cleaner a directors wage?
    It would be wrong for me to write what my brain says....
