Deal with important things in your own time, or run it by me before it happens when I'm paying you.

Like I said before, you go nuts, they walk, you lose money because you cannot do the work.

 

He’s ok normally.

 

Just pointing out how things have changed.

Yeah I get where you are coming from, there's plenty of work about so it's easy for folk to jump ship. A little respect goes a long way in my mind, we all need to sort important things out from time to time, just run it by whoever is paying you before you do it.

I (politely for me) asked a guy to leave the phone for a bit cos we were working.

 

”I’m dealing with something important!” was his reply.

Maybe he was busying filling in a job application :w00t:

I know, he actually shouted at me, got to admit I was rather taken aback.

I had a similar situation the other day when one of the lads lost his rag in front of me and a load of builders on sight. To be fair to him he wanted me to do something differently to make his job on the day easier which was a completely understandable thing for him to ask but it was the way he spoke to me that ground my gears. I bit my tongue and when we had a quite minute I took him to one side and explained politely that I won’t be spoken to like that and that if it happens again he would be walking home from site. He completely understood apologised and said he only shouted because the chipper was going and that he realised once he had snapped at me that he cocked up. Water under the bridge now and all it took was for me not to loose my rag and make a simple situation worse.
