Recently, a new employee and an existing employee got hurt due to shift time.
As a store owner, I asked the new employee, “I have to take over the company, so why don’t you come to work at least five minutes early?”
The new employee said, “Sometimes I can’t do that.”
For a moment, I thought, “How can you speak to the owner so firmly?”
I made concessions, remembering the words of Mother’s love.
Say to the other employees, “If the new employee is late, I will take care of it so that he will not be late.”
The staff smiled and said, “It’s okay. Please bear with me.”
He added, “Sometimes, I too was late for my shift or was on time,” and said, “I’ll fix it myself first.”
From then on, I changed the new employee ten minutes before the end of work.
When I gave them an early shift, something amazing happened.
The new employee had to leave for work at least five minutes earlier, and other employees would leave for work five to ten minutes earlier, too.
'What if I had strongly told you to go to work five minutes earlier because I am the owner of the store?' I thought to myself.
Everyone must have felt uncomfortable and tired.
When I yielded to the other person and respected the other person, the situation was solved so easily.
Take this opportunity to listen more carefully to the other person’s opinion.
I realize once again that the 'Mother's Day of Love and Peace' campaign is to change 'me', not others. ♡
