I wrote the other day about employee guest issues, how her DBF was coming in and being inappropriate and I wanted to hold her responsible for his actions... DH took care of it and told the DBF that he was not welcome at all and if he came back we would let her go.
The thing is, DBF is a lover on the side of 2 years.
She is married and has 3 children. Her DH has MS and is not well and hasn;'t been for awhile. I do not approve of the situation and have let her know as much but it is not grounds to fire anyone and her workplace performance is stellar.
Yesterday she came in 20 minutes late, VERY out of character for her. I asked her to come to the office so we could chat about it as I was going to say after what went down last week with DBF it was probably a bad idea to slide in to work late...
she burst out in tears. I didn't know the woman had the ability to cry. SOmeone mailed her DH a letter and detailed the affair. It looks like it was the employee I fired a few weeks back (the only firing I ahve had to do). She has been stalking the woman since I let her go, late night drunk phone calls, showing up at her house and visiting with her DH despite never having met him. She propositioned the DBF and was rejected by him.
My employees DH went pretty crazy and was freaking infront of th ekids, tossed her out and refused to let her in... blah blah (can';t say i would react any differently).
SO, my employee totally gathered herself and performed at 100% last night. The fired woman called her all evening long on her cell, she called my employees mom (!) and her DBF. She called a regular customer. She claimed the employees DH had called her after he got the letter and asked her if she wrote it and went on to tell her all about it.
So, my employee and her DH went to their pastor today and made a plan. They made an agreement to slowly work on things. he suggested they see a psych (I think her DH needs pretty intense help :( )
My heart ached for her children when she told me. I started crying on the spot picturing her 3 boys terrified as daddy wigged out. It was awful.
I met with my employee at the beginning of her shift today, just to make sure she was OK andwas going to be able to work at 100% again. She was feeling happy, relieved and optomistic. She thanked me for always being honest with her- not approving of stepping out but not letting it effect her job- and promised she was 100% at her job.
Can I please have a drama free business?
