It amazes me that people who can't distinguish between 'your' and 'you're' are allowed to manage people

So, act like a million πŸ’Έ company and cover your employees' babysitting and taxi expenses. Also hire enough people.

A million dollar company could just be a warehouse and 10 employees. I don't know why they are acting like it's a lot.

Where I live, a million dollars doesn’t buy you a house. So I don’t know what this bitch is talking about.

[–] socsa@piefed.social 11 points 1 day ago

We currently own two modest houses until the spring when we will sell one, but right now that makes me a million dollar company.

A "million dollar company" could be pulled directly out of their ass. Jenny's illiteracy doesn't inspire confidence in her accounting skills.

[–] Steve@startrek.website 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Assuming they mean revenue, i did more than that working out of an RV one year.

Trailer trash thinks it's a lot.

I've seen monthly AWS bills bigger than that, every time I look at the damn dashboard.

They can't afford to check their grammar. You think they can afford to give their employees benefits? You expect the poor CEO to take a pay cut to pay for all of this? You'll just have to go to poor Timmy Executive and tell him he's not getting that second yacht for Christmas this year.

Spring for the spell check function for management.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Wouldn't do much good in this case - "your" and "lets" are actual words.

[–] lost_faith@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

and you need to know grammar to use a grammar checker. My paper in uni I decided to just hit corels gramatik and accept all changes (did it a few times just for funsies) that paper went from above acceptable to an atrocious mess in no time

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Word processors also have grammar checkers. Hell, my phone gave me a blue line while I typed this comment.

[–] Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 day ago

Yes, except "hire enough people". You can't staff enough to cover 4 out of 8 employees off from a combination of sick, bereavement, and vacation.

It happens. All you can do is prioritize tasks, make it work the best you can with the resources you have, and manage expectations.

If the work can't be rescheduled, and isn't worth paying someone OT to cover, well, then, it's not worth doing.

[–] Banana@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Also have some professionalism and make sure your management knows how to spell

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Maybe she sincerely means 'million dollar company', a company too dirt poor to pay to have adequate coverage...
