So my boss was interviewing people the other day for the other role at our job. And so we had a new person come in today and she's nice, found out she lives near me so she offered to give me a ride to and from work which is great.
But I found out that my boss had to let her go (after like 2 1/2 hours of work). I think it's just because she wasn't understanding quickly what my boss was explaining. Like I don't know the exact ins and outs but yeah. Apparently I set the bar high.
Was pretty keen to get a lift to and from work.
2.5 hours?? That seems wildly unreasonable
Unless they're completely useless and any longer would be a waste of everyone's time.
Maybe.
I was completely useless at my first burger flipping job for way more than 2.5hrs (weeks / months really when the pressure was on at lunch slam).
Ended up smashing them badbwoys out in record time soon after.
Sometimes people just need a bit of time and TLC.
