I think it could be time for a career change, I am really hating my part time job lately, new staff who just have no respect or interest in doing tasks properly

I know I do things in a particular way and may have a slight touch of ocd but trying to accommodate and reason with them isn't working

I feel now like an old horse who needs to be put out to pasture :(

I am sorry you feel the way you do, nothing worse than not having job satisfaction, I think ... Can you talk to management about new staff`´s attitude? Do you have any assistance¿? I hope you can sort things out without having to look for a new job

aww Tammy, I hope you can speak to management and maybe get management to reorganise a bit in your setup if you think it is needed. xx

They are not gearing up the young people for work these days. When i have them joining me i have to invest a lot of time developing them as noone seems to have given them the skills for working environments. I mean i had to tell one the other day to take the chewing gum out of her mouth as it made her look unprofessional in a meeting where she was representing our company. When i asked if she had gum in her mouth...she rushed off to get me some! Thats just one of a long list of things. Its exhausting but we know they have been brought up in a totally different world from us. I would not want their upbringing i am assuming new staff are young but i may be wrong here.

Yes they are and I don't want to sound racist but some haven't got English as a first language either

As long as they are competant in speaking english and writing it I am ok with that even if it is their second language. I am just getting used to a staff member who has severe dyslexia its opened my eyes a lot about it. Its amazing how people manage.
