A "favor" is an act of goodwill or a kind act, i.e. holding the door open for someone, driving them to the airport. This is a major inconvenience and goes way beyond that.

[@sorcdk2880]

There are bigger classes of favours. This one belong in the same category as "I need a new roof at home, can you do it for me?". Those are usually only extanged between family, business partners, and criminals.

[@chanelxrenee]

very true.

[@Someone-dv7hw]

​​@@sorcdk2880 that kind of thing is expected to be met with smth in return (I wash your hand, you wash mine) so rather than a favor it's more of an exchange. Doesn't mean it has to happen immediately but it still isn't given for free. Also... a direct superior cannot expect to be the recipient of favors. Favors usually imply between equals.

[@Dr.Cosmar]

True story, i asked for a raise the last time i was asked to train someone. When they tried telling me that its standard and part of my job.... i pulled out the companies job descriptions.... "No, not on here... you know, I did find what job description is responsible for training though. Wanna take a guess?" "There's no need to be rude, thats ok I'll find someone else." "It's rude to put your work on someone else, it's not rude to demand better of your superiors in the workplace."

[@MrThatGuyYouForgot]

I don't know where you live but at every job I've ever been at or heard of in the US there's a tiny little statement at the end of every job description that ruins everybody's life: "Other duties as assigned". And that part makes the rest of the job description a floor. Your job is whatever they say it is PLUS whatever is in your job description.

[@kellykat8057]

​@@MrThatGuyYouForgotAnd, this is why so many workers are, "quiet quitting" by doing the minimum or by doing some of these "other duties as assigned" poorly on purpose. When companies use, "other duties as assigned" as the job description, but do not reward good performing workers with raises, perks, benefits or other fair compensation, while piling more and more work on the workers, and giving huge salary increases & bonuses to the CEOs instead, then they should expect that those "other duties as assigned" to not get done.

I would not initially demand additional compensation, but I would tell her straight up that my existing duties would be put on hold, and that she'd need too find someone else to do them if she wants them completed by the deadline AND to have this new task performed. If she asked that I stay after normal hours to get both tasks done, then I'd demand time and a half.

[@Entertainment-is6ex]

Yep it's better to play this in reverse, if there is no time/project code for this training in your timesheet, i.e. If the training takes 20hrs/week, then spend the first 20hrs of your week on the dedicated training, then rest of the week for regular duties. When you have worked your total hours for the week (e.g. 35hrs or 40hrs depending on what counts as 'full-time' in your country), then either: 1) go home (even if work unfinished), or 2) work on overtime pay

I have trained almost 6 people at my job.

The team lead never did, but guess who had to retrain people because the lead literally told them WRONG? That’s right. Someone else who did something similar with 2 people pointed out the hypocrisy and was given “points” in our company’s reward program that equalled about $3 for training 2 people over the course of 2-3 months. What’s even worse, I found out that the team lead got paid to train me when I started… even though I didn’t even meet her until I’d been working there for almost a year and done the work of 3 people completely solo for 3 months of that year starting 8 weeks after starting the job. 🙄 Yet they can’t figure out why very few people stay for very long.

As soon as you allow yourself to be the simp, the simp you will be. If you speak up for yourself, you will either get fired (which is a juicy unlawful termination lawsuit if you're smart and have a paper trail) or you will get respect.

I got fired and was never allowed to have a paper trail. Everything was never put in writing (email, teams message, etc) or I was told for confidentiality reasons, I was not allowed to see it. “As soon as you allow yourself to be the simp…” is a gross over simplification of life. Stop blaming people for being treated badly, and maybe go after the people treating people badly; although, from the looks of it, that would require you to change some of your own behaviours. I already have a solid wrongful termination claim as all of this was tied to my disclosure of a disability and HR didn’t know they were supposed to tell me a few things. Too bad, as an unemployed person, I can’t afford a lawyer. I can’t even afford my meds right now.

Veronika is going to get fired

[@Gancanna]

I doubt it. Based on another video, Veronika probably has enough recordings of the manager going against company policies and later pretending it was someone else's (specifically blaming Veronika in that one) fault to cost the manager her job.

I've done a lot of stuff for free including training, bring it up at my performance appraisals, write it in my CV, get better offers elsewhere, and get pay raises. I've gone from earning monthly 11k in 2019 to 30k today, switching jobs twice.

[@susannpatton2893]

Why even ask her? You know what she's going to say 😂 In the real world, she wouldn't be asked and be working alone with no interactions with other staff because they are plotting how to get rid of her

[@NaeniaNightingale]

Because the other staff are corporate slaves without a spine

[@gene8447]

Fine. People like her often "fail" upwards anyways. Who tf needs work "friends" who treat you like that? She has consistently been shown to get her work done efficiently and quickly. Someone else will take her on no sweat. 💅

[@2WhiteAndNerdy]

The worst is when you find out the person you're training (and is totally clueless) is going to be your superior and is making way more than you.

[@Charlesbjtown]

Veronica ain't with the foolishness 💀

[@lauraallen543]

I love this ❤

[@NORCAL609]

Literally for everything in life “WWVD” what would Veronica do?

[@hadasgold6511]

We get asked quite a lot to train but it goes without saying that our tasks for the training time will be decreased.

[@sudiptoghosh1174]

And she got her answer in upraisals...

[@RedSiegfried]

Reminder to start carrying a copy of my electricity and water bill around.

[@jameslucas5590]

I am not a trainer. I will onboard someone but will not train someone. You get a pdf file for onboarding.

[@tripleb1960]

What do you mean by "onboard" someone?

[@DRAONWEED]

Corporate America has done this to itself.

[@CaesarInVa]

"Other duties as assigned".

[@gregbaxter6162]

POV: nothing was brilliant

[@Juan-z7w]

If anyone do anything like that in any job in this world that person would be fired in less than a week.

[@ahamay656]

If only shit like this worked in the real world

[@TheGremlin012]

This is literally me in my current job...

[@selwynowen6213]

Most big companies employ staff who are there to train new employees

[@Teo_live]

Yeah try this in real life and you will just get fired. It will only work if you are in a high demand role.

[@TheAmphicyon]

You are a serf. Broken horse don't stand up for yourself.

[@86JEYPI]

I'm not a manager, but this brilliant employee looks more like a problematic employee

[@grmpEqweer]

Veronica is right.

[@susanrand512]

There has to be some sort compensation, time off, leaving early, they dont want to pay, good for you.

[@janmeyer3129]

These clips remind me of the differences which used to be clearly stated when I was first employed as a lecturer. A lecturer was a ‘professional’ - their work was evaluated in terms of outcomes achieved, however they were achieved and whatever time they took. Professionals were paid more because they had to be innovative in achieving timely quality outcomes and training new or more junior colleagues was an obvious part of their responsibility. ‘Employees’ were people without the capacity or training to do this. Their output was measured in terms of hours worked, items on a list of duties completed etc. Creators/ vs operators. Management and employee in this series are talking from opposite sides of this divide.

[@janmeyer3129]

Forgot to say - the University quite blatantly tried to exploit this difference when they wanted to reduce spending, by suggesting they could get rid of many of the ‘by the hour’ type staff and simply have the academics pick up their work as well, since academic contracts did not put any upper limit (or even mention) the amount of time that needed to be spent on the job

[@lynnlim6800]

Why I never see Veronica play the role as manager? She is so good that she must have get promoted.

[@lavieestbelle6068]

I love it!
