I just spent the last four months reading about empowering employees for class for long-term success of the company.
My very first employee is just one month into the job and I'm already getting frustrated with her. Am I being too hard?
My cousin-in-law, the one who referred her, said she wasn't a leader. And that she's taken her teacher licensure exam a few times now but hasn't passed. I know board exams are tough, so I gave her a break. How hard would it be to sell items? And she did spend 3 years with my cousin-in-law in a retail business too.
But all she does is clean and I've started testing her on her familiarity with the products and her progress is quite slow. All she does is clean and clean. As much as I appreciate that, I need to see that she will learn the products within the next 2 months until her probation ends.
I really do hope she proves to be worth it. It's not easy to find someone, but I can't afford someone who will not be able to hold the fort if I'm away, and don't need me to babysit her all the time.
