Nothing.  He should have never told her unless it was official.  Gossip and rumors cause problems like this, but they are not immoral, illegal or unethical.  It is just poor judgment or a bad, bad joke.

Hey Doll, You blew it.\nNever tell a future employer that you are only going to be there for a short time..IT COST MONEY TO TRAIN YOU. If they ask you something like that again, tell them that you are going to work full time and that you want to be president of the company when the opertunity comes along.

Take it up with the management.  As soon as you see that a staff member at the bottom rung is just giving you what they are told to say, ask to speak to their manager.  To do otherwise, wastes everyone's time and energy.  No sense upsetting someone who has no authority to change anything, or upsetting yourself, and looking bad.

i think she is being very unprofessional.  no one wants to know what she was up to the night before.  i think her behavior definetly reflects on the company and she is embarassing herself.  a lady has much more class than that.  she's behaving like a tramp.

i agree with the guy above me. unless.., do you live in florida? because here we have an at will relationship with employees. you could fire her for coming into work without bringing you a smoothe if you want.\n\nso i think, because she is completly manipulative, and bad at it or else she wouldnt have gotten caught so easily, you should tranfer her to florida and fire her a**. \n\nif you cant transfer her then go with what the other guy said.

Clearly, this employees is a detriment to the business, get rid of her ASAP. Begin recruiting for another employee immediately, using all the means at your disposal - Internet, local bartender schools, word of mouth, newspaper ads, etc.\n\nBe sure you have documentation to support your actions, or you could face an "unlawful discharge" lawsuit.\n\nAs to coverage, why could you cover the shift until another bartender is hired.

sit down and talk calmly with your supervisor, ask him/her to provide a detailed list of behaviors which should be changed in order to better yourself and assist in getting a promotion.\n\nWho tells you you don't have the right attitude?\n\nBe nice, do not be defensive, smile, See if the company has anything in writing as to promotional policies.\n\nIf you are unhappy with the results.  Go to the next person on the "ladder"

I agree that if what she wears is not up to code with the office dress code, then it should be brought to her attention. Without involving the district manager. Unfortunately, the bare-midriff styles have been in for too long a time (okay, I wore a tube top in the 70's and 80's too)and a blurred image of what is proper and not proper for work has come out of it.\nI would suggest striking up a conversation (more than a few in this forum have suggested it) and while praising her work, if applicable, then bring up gently that you've noticed her wardrobe violates company policy. Admit that if the manager had to handle it he/she would be very likely to embarrass you coworker. If she tells you to bugger off, then let things alone and let them take their inevitable course. Make certain you're doing it for the reason of her well being and not because she's on the pudgy side.

sounds like a nice idea- even if by the time they recieve it- they already hired someone else!  Maybe they will keep you in mind next time there is an opening if they dont hire you this time.

She needs to call the office and ask to speak to the office manager, who would most likely be this assistant's direct supervisor. She should ask to make sure she is speaking to their supervisor.  Then calmly tell them what happened and that she was embarrassed by this highly unprofessional reaction.  She should judge her next step by the answer she receives from the supervisor. A good supervisor will assure her that the employee will be reprimanded.  If she gets a "I'm sure she didn't mean it" or leads your friend to feel that she was exaggerating, or is being dismissed, the next step is to write a letter to the doctor of the office directly.  First tell them of the original experience, then tell him/her about the answer received by the supervisor and why you felt you weren't taken seriously.  In the body of the letter, tell the doctor, "In conclusion, I look forward to your personal response to this matter".  If she doesn't get an answer from the doctor within a reasonable amount of time (I would give a doctor at least 2 weeks), she should pick another doctor, and then write one last letter to the first doctor telling them she is changing physicians because she needs to be treated in a more professional manner, and the address where they should send her medical records. \nThen move on and feel good that she took action and put it behind her.

Rise above it. If she deliberately embarasses you, then she is the problem. Do your work well and professionally. Talk with her and inform her that you would prefer to be told about your mistakes in private so that you could remedy them. Always be professional and job oriented. Bosses hate office politics....Document all incidents that are caused by her, if it continues over a period of time approach the person over both of you. If you are doing your work well, it will show.  If she is the boss, get out now while you still have some self esteem.  Good luck.  Be proactive, not reactive.

Run like crazy.  This chick sounds nutty.  She's obviously posessive and has no reason to be.  It can only get worse.  Get away while you can.  If she will not do as you ask her to at work, have her fired, it is not her job to censor your calls.

I would tell him thanks to all of his great training and supervisory skills you feel ready to take a step up in the company....it is a step up, right?  Just let him know that you appreciated everything he has taught you and that you can't wait to sing his praises in another department....and make sure that is all that you do.  \n\nQuite honestly, if you have told ANYONE at work about this move.....he already knows.   Make sure you are available to help train or support the person who takes your place.....and once again DO NOT say anything negative about the boss to the new person.  That stuff travels faster then hot lava.\n\nGood luck in your new job!

No room for growth.\nEmployer did not support personal goals.\nReached potential with that employer and need new challenges.\n\nUnfortunately, honesty is NOT the best policy in this case, but be creative, and DO NOT bash your old employer.
