Logan is a great supervisor and well respected by his coworkers. Several months ago, he hired Danielle. It was obvious he liked her as more than a colleague from the beginning. He was very flirtatious and gave her extra attention during training. He was always there to rescue her or make excuses when she made a mistake. Now they are a couple and growing increasingly more affectionate at work. They sometimes disappear at break time and no one knows where they are. Even though Danielle is the newest hire, Logan givers her the preferred work schedule, most desirable days off and preferential treatment. Logan has been distracted on the job and is making mistakes affecting his coworkers. His coworkers are getting annoyed, and morale is going down. They have asked Michaela, another co-worker, to talk to Logan because she is his friend. Michaela had a crush on Logan in the past and wonders if he would actually listen to her or just think she's jealous. What should Michaela do?
I think Michaela should speak to Logan about how his relationship should not get in the way of work. He can speak to girlfriend at work, but the conversation should be more about work than about the relationship. If things do not change if I were Michaela I would tell someone who is in higher power at the workplace about the problem and have them speak to Logan.
ReplyDeleteMichaela needs to talk to Logan. If he keeps up with the same actions, he might lose good co-workers. They are getting annoyed and tired of they way he is treating Danielle. Logan may take it offensively, but it is for the best and needs to be brought up. It is unfair that Danielle is getting special treatment, and has been there the shortest amount of time.
ReplyDeleteI think she should try to talk to him and if he doesn't listen, they can try with someone else, Logan need to understand that the work area is important and that he can not put his co-workers down. It is not because they are a couple that they can annoy the others people.It is still a work area
ReplyDeleteI think Michaela should try to speak with Logan about his relationship. She should tell him about it is ok if they are together but he should separate the relationship at work. If he gets mad or he thinks she is jealous, she should speak with someone of higher power and that person should speak with him.
ReplyDeleteIf I was Michaela I would talk to logan about the things he is doing and what he could lose becasue of it. He needs to treat everyone equally and if he doesnt other people will get annoyed and they would probably quit.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Micheala would be the most effective person to talk to Logan. Logan probably won't take her seriously and may twist it to make it seem like Micheala is trying to get with him and make his girlfriend jealous, which could potentially end up becoming a huge fight. I think the boss needs to talk to Logan, someone who Logan will take more serious.
ReplyDeleteI would tell logan that he needs to be more serious in this situation, and he could loose a lot because of his bad actions. He needs to treat everyone with the same amount of respect, and if he doesn't then other people will get annoyed and probably leave too.
ReplyDeleteI think that Micheala should talk to Logan. And she needs to make it a serious conversation so that Logan doesn't think that she is jealous. But she needs to be respectful because they are friends and she doesn't want their friend ship to be ruined but she also doesn't want to be fired from her job.

ReplyDeleteI think Michaela should at least go and talk to him. She needs to have a serious conversation about how Logan is not getting all of his work done that he needs to get done. Also she liked him in the past and he probably has forgotten about that.
ReplyDeleteI think at work things should be professional at work so Michaela should speak to someone who has more power to do something about logan.
ReplyDeletei think that Michaela shout sit down with logan and as Mr hulls would say, touch base with him. she needs to make it clear to him that she isn't jealous, but more worried about the moral of the work place. she needs to be respectful to the situation so that they don't ruin the friendship and keeps it professional. if things don't change after that Michaela needs to talk to someone of higher authority.
