Don't let office bullies crush your spirit:
→ Face them head-on
→ Document everything, and
→ Reach out to someone you trust.

Things I'm sick of hearing from my employees:
- Can I leave early today
- I'll be late in the morning
- My child is sick, can I rush off
- I've got a doctor's appointment tomorrow, is that okay
- I'm going to be late back from lunch, I've got some things to sort
I don't care.
I hired you for a job and I fully TRUST you to get it done.
I don't need you to account for every single hour.
Times have changed, and the workplace is different these days.
People are sick of being treated like children.
All that should matter is that everyone is happy, and that the work gets done.
→ My advice to companies:
Treat your staff like adults.
That’s it, that’s the big secret.
- Give them autonomy
- Respect that they have lives outside of work
- Don’t gaslight them into being grateful for not being fired every day
Output should always trump hours.
