[QUOTE="supercool, post: 295341, member: 8811"] Some people just can't cut it at this job. It IS physically demanding, and not everyone can do it! Magoo, complimenting her for doing something right might boost her self esteem a little, but there still is a job that has to get done. Sure, some people start off slow and blossom into great workers, but in the meantime she sounds like she's an anchor weighing down everyone else. Every few months we'll get a new hire who comes in and can't lift the 50 pound boxes, works slow, etc. It's not a pleasure for me and my coworkers to assist these people. Why should we all be getting paid the same to do more work? It sounds like Pink Belt's worker has good intentions (crying when getting talked to indicates she cares about this), but this may not be the job for her. There are other jobs in the building which would be less physically demanding for her to do. Maybe in time she can come back and try this one, but as it stands it sounds like she is a burden on her supervisor and peers and should be moved to an area where she can perform adequately. She's been at the job a few months now according to Pink Belt's post, and it seems to me that she still hasn't improved enough to justify her being there. A lot of morale problems can stem from having to pick up someone else's dead weight. If someone's really trying and showing improvement, that's one thing, but this woman sounds like she's plateaued and should probably be moved somewhere else. Is moving her to another area considered turnover? As a side note, the people I respect the most at work are the women who outperform men on a daily basis. There's something almost sexy about a woman with a good work ethic. [/QUOTE]
