Now I feel like crap....
-
Nothing major, but I had to have a word with somebody this morning. He's a really great guy, but not exactly the hardest working bloke in the building. He loves to chat, and he loves to wander.
The office is noticeably quieter than normal this afternoon, and for some stupid reason I now feel really guilty.
I don't think I'm cut out for this
job

A man's gotta do wht he's gotta do. That's what you had to do. Don't let the guilt make you try to make it up to him. he needs to be productive.
It's not clear to me his behavior is contrary to that.

The discussion wasn't actually about his chatting and wandering, it was about his productivity.
The office is still as silent as the grave.
I'm wondering whether I'll get the sick day call-in tomorrow.

Well, that's legit.

I'm sure everything might be fine.
Seriously, though, I think Mik's right. You're management, he's labor. Ain't no way to reconcile that so might as well just try to be cool, do what you have to do and don't worry about whatever he thinks.

Obviously I’ve done this stuff before, but the guy in question tends to take things very personally. He more than had it coming, but I still don’t enjoy it.

Want a friend?
Buy a dog.

If he wasn’t quieter, then I would be worried he didn’t fake it seriously. Not that the chatting was the issue, but the guy should be more introspective given the circumstances.

If it’s any consolation, he’s having a worse day…
