It’s her responsibility to make sure she is at work on time, whether that means leaving her house earlier or texting the boss telling them she’ll be late and why she’s late.]]> 2022-02-16 16:50:02 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051332909 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051337044 Since you and Sue have a good friendship, you should talk to Sue and let her know how uncomfortable clocking her in early makes you feel. If she does not understand this problem and nothing changes, then you should go to your boss and explain what Sue has been asking of you and let her fix the probl]]> 2022-02-16 16:51:42 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051337044 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051341172 Since you and Joe are good friends, I understand the conflict you are facing. However, it is not worth telling Joe and risking your job if your boss finds out. I believe you could ask some close friends or relatives that own or manage a company or business and find out if there are any job opportunities Joe could possibly get. If there are any, you could share these with Joe so he has some options as soon as he is laid off so he can still support his family.]]> 2022-02-16 16:53:24 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051341172 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051342071 As an employee, you should always obey company contracts. In this scenario, speaking to your boss about the dilemma may result in an exception but no matter the outcome, the relationships at work should be kept professional as it may conflict with the company’s progress.]]> 2022-02-16 16:53:47 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051342071 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051342681 Since you and Sue have a valuable friendship, I understand the dilemma you are facing. I think that you should talk to Sue personally and express that it makes you uncomfortable to swipe her badge. You could also provide her tips on how to wake up early and make her mornings less stressful. If Sue continues to show up to work late, you should not swipe her badge so that you do not feel guilty. ]]> 2022-02-16 16:54:02 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051342681 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051343505 I think you should gather yourself and the two others who actually worked on the project and meet with your boss. When you meet with your boss, explain to them that the two members of your group have not been helping, and that you feel as if they shouldn’t be rewarded for your work.]]> 2022-02-16 16:54:22 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051343505 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051350146 You should have a group meeting and address all conflicts in front of your manager.

However if you are very adamant on this decision there should be no harm in becoming romantically involved with another employee, especially one that is in a different department than you are. Be sure to keep all interactions in the workplace professional and with the company guidelines that are provided. If not there will be consequences for these actions.]]> 2022-02-16 16:58:59 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051354754 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051355028 Don’t clock in for Sue anymore.

Avoid telling him from who and where you heard this. If Joe pushes for details, tell him you weren’t supposed to hear it and it came from someone credible and that the only reason you won’t tell him more, is out of fear of losing your own job. Offer to support Joe in finding a new job and whatever his family might need. Be sure to emphasize that you don’t know the specifics, but you do know the company’s intentions. Hopefully Joe will listen, but if he doesn’t, there isn’t much more you can do.]]> 2022-02-16 16:59:10 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051355182 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051355483 You should stay busy and productive during work hours and save texting for your break time or after hours, and talk to your boss about seeing him text during work hours and how it influences you to do the same. ]]> 2022-02-16 16:59:19 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051355483 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051357159 You and the two others should meet and explain to the boss that the other 2 members did not do their fair share and therefore should not be compensated.

Explain to your boss that the other 2 employees haven’t been doing much of the work and feel like they shouldn’t get the bonus.

The moral decision would be to contact your company to make sure that your lunch is included by them. If not, then do not use the company card at all. You can let your friends know that you may get in serious trouble by the company if they find out you paid for unnecessary purchases for your friends.]]> 2022-02-16 17:06:18 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051372936 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051555218 The person should start by speaking to your supervisor about your issue and it may result in an exception for this situation, but regardless professional connections at work should be preserved as they may interfere with the company's future success. ]]> 2022-02-16 18:23:03 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051555218 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2051998891 I know it may be tough to decide what to do in this situation because Joe is a close friend of yours. However, at the end of the day the information you’ve received isn't yours to distribute any further as it wasnt purposely given to you. You may discreetly converse with Joe along with others in the same department of potential layoffs to give a heads up of upcoming changes in the workplace and possible loss of employment so that Joe can get a headstart on looking for other forms of income.

It may be seen as going behind the boss’s back, but Joe and his family could be put into a really difficult situation if the writer doesn’t tell him. If in the same situation as Joe, I would really appreciate it if someone gave me a warning to help me prepare for being laid-off.]]> 2022-02-17 05:41:51 UTC https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2052489938 https://padlet.com/leia_barker/h7yaj2t5ab6btkfo/wish/2053412277 Hey writer! Tricky situation you got caught in, but I am here to help! The best decision is to tell Joe that he is going to get laid off. This is so that he can prepare for his fire, giving him time to start looking for a new one to support his family. This can also motivate him to work harder to have a chance of not being fired. Not telling Joe and seeing him get fired may leave you with a feeling of guilt for not telling him.
