updates: boss keeps bringing sick child to work, manager keeps asking for rides home, and more
- An employee who wrote to Ask a Manager about their boss bringing her sick child to work says the situation escalated: the boss continued to break rules around workplace safety during a renovation, became hostile towards her employee and used them as a “release valve”. The author claims the result was that they resigned and cited unsafe working conditions and filed a complaint with the labour board. Another update concerns an employee who wanted their role expanded but didn't have the appropriate qualifications. Following feedback from HR, the employee dropped the idea and became reinstated after engaging with their job. Meanwhile another letter writer who was concerned that the reporting structure at their workplace was not fit for purpose reports they have taken a job at a private company that better suits their skillset.
- An update on a previous letter featured on Ask a Manager tells how an employee complained their boss continued bringing her sick child to work. Their employer then dismissed their concerns when undertaking renovations to the office that caused unsafe working conditions. Following a series of complaints the employee quit and cited unsafe working conditions whilst filing a complaint with the labor board.
- Another update featured on Ask a Manager follows an employee who no longer had interest in their old job and asked for an expanded role that they were not qualified for. They consequently dropped the idea and returned to their original role instead.
- An employee who previously posted on Ask a Manager about her boss frequently asking to be given a ride says there have been no further issues since the publication of the post.
