Umm, no. Someone being forced to move to a different location based on accusations is about as silly as firing them over accusations. They can and will file a complaint with the state labor board. Have any of you actually worked before..?
But you were perfectly fine moving the victim??
I'm pretty sure you insinuated that Taco Bell should handle criminal harassment in another post, so I'm going to go ahead and just assume you're a troll and not reply.
That's a reply. If by "handle criminal harassment" you mean get authorities involved, absolutely. How is that a question? Not sure what else you could have inferred from that but if it's something else please, do tell.
So you believe it's taco bells responsibility to get the authorities involved, not the victim?
The company has a responsibility and when the don't fulfill their duties of handling harassment properly the victim can sue the company. Which is exactly what this situation is, taco bell not handling reports of harassment properly and the victim having to do it themselves. You've been talking a lot about people not understanding the US workforce but you're pretending like there aren't laws that cover this.
Well, I'll go ahead and stick with my own experience over some random dude on the internet. You jumped from harassment, to criminal harassment (yes, these are different levels of harassment), saying taco bell needs to handle criminal levels of harassment, to now not answering the question completely about who has the responsibility to take criminal harassment to the authorities. BTW, my experience is about 15 years in mid and 10 years in upper level management. I'm guessing you read something or talked to some buddies to get your levels of experience.
Know how I know you're lying? No one with that much experience thinks that experience alone is worth anything. People hold down jobs for decades that they suck at and you keep repeating yourself as if that's the solution to anything. You also keep talking about dodging questions when you still haven't answered the question I asked you to begin with. You're either a really bad troll or a really bad boss.
I ran out of popcorn kid, my give a shits meter of what some rando on the internet thinks regarding my life is at 0. But hey, you do you fella! Ever wonder why you get passed up for any promotions that involve managing people? Because your decisions are a liability to your company! Now you know.
No because I'm the manager. Nice try though. Also nice try pretending not to care and then proceeding to show you do.
Umm, no.
That's cool. When you do get into the workforce, you'll find it's never as black and white as it seems. I've run into just as many people claiming victim when in reality they are the problem. Not saying that is the case with this person, but moving everyone that they claim is harassing them is foolish and leaves your company open to retaliation claims. Now you know.
I'm over 60 and have worked since I was 12. You don't know shit about my experiences but are arrogant enough to think otherwise.
Now you know.
It doesn't make your terrible ideas any less terrible. So far I've given you several reasons why they are terrible, and you have replied with nonsense about your age as if it's relevant. Hint: It isn't EDIT: Also, I asked you in my post (it was the only question that was asked in the entire post) "Have any of you actually worked before…?" To which you *replied * "Umm, no." So tell me again how I made an assumption and don't know shit about your experiences. I will make one assumption, you've been having trouble with communication ever since you started working at 12.
