Logan is a great supervisor and well respected by his coworkers. Several months ago, he hired Danielle. It was obvious he liked her as more than a colleague from the beginning. He was very flirtatious and gave her extra attention during training. He was always there to rescue her or make excuses when she made a mistake. Now they are a couple and growing increasingly more affectionate at work. They sometimes disappear at break time and no one knows where they are. Even though Danielle is the newest hire, Logan givers her the preferred work schedule, most desirable days off and preferential treatment. Logan has been distracted on the job and is making mistakes affecting his coworkers. His coworkers are getting annoyed, and morale is going down. They have asked Michaela, another co-worker, to talk to Logan because she is his friend. Michaela had a crush on Logan in the past and wonders if he would actually listen to her or just think she's jealous. What should Michaela do?
I think Michaela should speak to Logan about how his relationship should not get in the way of work. He can speak to girlfriend at work, but the conversation should be more about work than about the relationship. If things do not change if I were Michaela I would tell someone who is in higher power at the workplace about the problem and have them speak to Logan.
ReplyDeleteI don't think its fair they ask Michaela to talk to him, they should all have the guts to talk to him on their own and tell them how they feel. Logan would probably just think that she is jealous but if other employees talked to him as well then maybe he would see that there is a serious problem with what is going on at work.
ReplyDeleteI would speak to logan about his flirtatious problem with this women and tell him it is getting in the way of his work and I would say if he didn't fix it he would have to suffer the consequences or possibly fired.
