I sent a job advert off to our Area Manager for
approval, only to be told (at 4.59pm – just before their e-mail went to
Automatic Ignore For The Weekend mode) that they might not replace Martha and
that her hours may have to be covered by the existing staff pool.
Should have seen that coming really.
She’s a full-time employee and she works a lot of
the unsociable hours. Being single, with no children, she’s been willing and
happy to do overnights at the weekends, and to be there during holidays and festivals.
Last year, I seem to remember, she filled in loads of gaps in December when
other employees were spending time with their families. So we’re not just
losing a valued member of staff, we’re losing one who is responsible for keeping
the operation running when no-one else wants to be in attendance.
And they think we don’t need to replace her.
Money-grabbing, penny-pinching toss-wits.
