Even if it has already happened. (You say that this should take place within a few weeks, if not before.) If this is the case, you must tell your boss that you have changed ideas about the fact that she is left and that she has to make other agreements.
You can say ‘no’.
And you can say ‘no’ afterwards.
Let me repeat. You can say ‘no’ to the fact.
It is interesting that you have consulted chatgpt. More and more of my friends are doing the same for advice. I put your exact question, word by word, in the application to see what it should say. I was not impressed. The AI has made all the right points – emphasizing the importance of maintaining professional boundaries and being aware of power dynamics – but these are things you already know. It also suggested that you offer alternatives “such as suggesting a hotel or a rental properties in the neighborhood.” But this is useless. It not only suggests that this is your problem to solve, it assumes that she is unprofessional in addition to your boss, is also stupid. That possibly only add fuel to the fire. I mean, this conversation will be difficult enough as it is.
Does anyone else browse my problem?
I work as a manager in a small company with two bosses, different partners and only a few managers. Our newest manager has been with us less than a year. The company provides flexible working time, and the new admin and I usually work until 6.30 am (the bosses and the main manager usually leave around 5 pm).
I noticed when I worked on our new manager, that she often spends that time on her phone, not working. It is extremely frustrating because I have a huge workload and waste time like that is unthinkable for me. But I don’t know what to do about it-I don’t have a supervisory role for this colleague, so I tell myself to just do my own work and keep my nose clean.
I think it would be standard advice to let the bosses discover this themselves – but they are rarely to observe the behavior. Tattling on this colleague seems childish, but I also don’t know if she speaks directly to her, is also wise. What should I do?
– Anonymously
“I don’t have a supervisory role for this colleague, so I tell myself to just do my own work and keep my nose clean,” you write. You have already answered your own question. You have to stay outside.
