I’m usually early to work meetings, so this is usually how it feels till people drag themselves through the door 10 minutes later.
I once had that meeting, sort of
Only been with the boss and HR as a matter of performance once, I stayed for a shift I usually wasn’t on, and a manager I’d never met but only heard was a total hardass was having a shitty day (parent passed, but i had no idea, I’d never met this guy). He passes my workstation, first time meeting the dude, and chews me out for some computer shit. Totally fair - I was on reddit or something on a work computer and policy is not to, then a coworker across the floor does something humerous as manager is walking away. He files a report I laughed at him. I was under the impression I’d been written up for computer misuse the entire hr meeting, so thats what I defended and admitted to. In retrospect, fuck that guy and fuck that workplace, I got a 6 month probationary period for that. I served it no issues, but no wonder they have staffing issues and no wonder no one likes the managers.
Its a state facility. They don’t have turnover - they have churn. 200-300% churn annually. Good benefits though.
I rationed that in order for me to come back I’d need $70/hr to do that job again (100k annual after tax) and obviously they wont approve that lol
