Holy frickin cry babies

[diesel101]

I had to share this with you guys maybe I'm a little insensitive but I cannot believe how some grown men are such cry babies. I have had to terminate employees in the past and some of them just don't care,some get pissed and I have had some break down and cry like a baby. I had new employee (8 months) call me last night and put in his 2 weeks notice. Our company policy is that when you put in your notice you are done right at that minute. He gets to work this morning and I explain this to him and we shake hands and I wish him good luck in the future and he breaks down cries like a 2 year old. I stand there with the WTF look on my face and ask him what is wrong and he tells me he thought we would be more upset that he was leaving( I did not tell him that I was thinking about firing him today anyway). He cries for 5 minutes we load up his toolbox, shake hands and he drives away and waves at me like a kid on the school bus for the first time as he drives away.

Is it me or is the younger generation getting softer?

maybe it's cultural? maybe he lives in a high stress environment?

or maybe he lacks the Y Chromosome?

Must be your line of work everyone I "let go" thinks I'm the reason why and usually wants to fight and yell

My group never understands it may have something to do with
Drinking
Drugs
Late to work
Bad attitude
Shit to quality of work
And overall useless behavior

However I deal with the monkeys of the world

We put a lot into hiring, training, maintaining and motivating our employees. Each of them represents hundreds of hours of hard work. They become like family. I hate to see any of them go. Firing someone is one of the hardest things for me. Not only does it hurt their feelings; but it makes me feel like I have somehow failed as a manager. Either I hired the wrong person to begin with or I didn't do what it took to help them do the job.

Then again, I once caught an employee stealing. It was a true pleasure to fire and prosecute her sorry ass. rant over.

Pretty much the exact reasons I have had to terminate employees except for drugs have not had that problem yet.

Diesel repair shops, Most of my employees are all Diesel technicians

I'm a software developer and everyone gets really super passive aggressive when things like this happen.

Too many men have been feminized. It's sad to see.

No AI on cycle

That could be true but I am almost positive I am the only one in the company running cycles.

Diesel you insensitive prick!

I don't know how you guys employee males. My entire staff is female. I've hired a few dudes; but they don't work as hard, want more money, and turn into back-stabbing little cvnts.

Either the guy has a really unrealistic image of himself or he believes his mommy telling him all those years how special he was.

I think its all part of the entitlement mentality where people really do think they are special without having to do anything to justify it.

I know women get made are me when I tell them they are not a princess and im jot a prince so dont expect to be treated lj me one but if you act like a lady I will treat you like one and with respect as long as its reciprocated.

I like the saying, dont raise your daughter to be a princes, raise her to be a good wife and she will have a better chance of having a good marriage.

I work in the oil and Gas industry and the days of men being tougher than the iron are long gone... And that's really sad considering most of the iron is the shitty Chinese iron!!

I would have told him to get the F out of my office.

The new generation has proven to be soft and uninspiring when it comes to work.
