It amazes me that people who can’t distinguish between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’ are allowed to manage people

    So, act like a million 💸 company and cover your employees’ babysitting and taxi expenses. Also hire enough people.

      A million dollar company could just be a warehouse and 10 employees. I don’t know why they are acting like it’s a lot.

          and you need to know grammar to use a grammar checker. My paper in uni I decided to just hit corels gramatik and accept all changes (did it a few times just for funsies) that paper went from above acceptable to an atrocious mess in no time

          Word processors also have grammar checkers. Hell, my phone gave me a blue line while I typed this comment.

      Yes, except “hire enough people”. You can’t staff enough to cover 4 out of 8 employees off from a combination of sick, bereavement, and vacation.

      It happens. All you can do is prioritize tasks, make it work the best you can with the resources you have, and manage expectations.

      If the work can’t be rescheduled, and isn’t worth paying someone OT to cover, well, then, it’s not worth doing.

      Maybe she sincerely means ‘million dollar company’, a company too dirt poor to pay to have adequate coverage…
