Not in support of her rudeness. Oga nah you cause the whole thing, because you is her boss, you don't chik you'r female employees to avoid running down your business next time. there are other girls outside there that you can chik |

Bros, the matter should never be allowed to pass. You have committed the blunder already by asking your own employee out, what were you thinking? You want to bring disgrace to yourself and destroy your business? Anyway, the deed is done already. This is my advice: 1. Issue her a query signed by her immediately superior on your directives but not signed by you. This will help destroy her pride and ego. The response time for the query should be within 6hrs during the day. 2. Once you receive the answer to the query direct that she should immediately embark on 4-weeks suspension without pay. Attach someone to escort her out of the office as she picks her things.This will definitely be humiliating to her. Pls ensure you pay her up to date along with whatever Christmas bonus every staff is entitled to. The above actions will go a long way in restoring your honour while serving as deterrent to others. 2 Likes |

mudility: You created the scene for such arrogance, deal with it. Sacking her should be the last thing you should resort to. It was your fault in the first place. So why not try and talk it over with her first. She may have her reasons. Most girls in this situation especially when they also have a crush on you and know that they can't resist you for long, in an effort to avoid been tempted, they start doing things that will make you hate them. So why not try the following steps. 1. Invite her to your office and query her for disrespecting you in the presence of other employees 2. Observe her response, if she is remorseful, there is hope, if she isn't then.. 3. But before you sack her, admit your fault of allowing yourself attach personal concerns to business. Tell her that you have accepted her refusal of you, and that you are looking forward not to repeat such mistake again. But if she wants to take advantage or use that as an opportunity to disrespect you, you'll have her fired. What I mean is that, you try and win back her confidence in you, and you'll win your reputation as well. Fire her carelessly, you risk been discredited by one of your female employee. You may not know how far that might go affecting you in the future. Wisdom is profitable unto all things. 2 Likes 1 Share |

mudility:sacking her is not the solution, you caused it by asking her out, ask yourself this question: is she valuable to my business? if the answer is yes then talk to her about it and warn herto stop disrespecting you. what happens if you employ another lady and you still can't resist asking her out? 2 Likes |

As an HR person and also an advocate, you can't just wake-up one day and sack your employee; if she takes you to court, she might have an edge over you. Before issuing her the sack letter, make sure you give her free hearing i.e several written queries and accompany each queries with warning (oral or written). There after, if she refuse to change, you can show her the way out. Lesson: if you want your business to grow, never mix business with pleasure. 2 Likes |

Re: I Want To Sack My Employee I Was Crushing On. by drnoel: 8:47am On Dec 19, 2015 |
mudility: Sacking her is the easy way out. Why dont you try the hard way out? Remember you where the person that brought yourself to her level. You told her you wanted her. To women you have just made yourself cheap in her eyes, many ladies will see it as a mean to gloat and trample over a guy that makes such confession. We know after such work situation will become weird and she may or will develop an attitude in the whole work area. An attitude with the job, the boss, her other colleague and your clients. Her female brain won't compute anything else. Now this thing am about to write has already being written above me but they didn't do justice to it. You be in the man in the situation now have to be smart cos your self respect depends on how you act. If you sack her now she will tell anyone willing to hear that you sacked her cos she refused you. It's popularity you don't need. I suggest you keep her on and don't sack her yet. But call her to your office sit her down and leave you office door open so that anyone passing by can see you peeps are just talking. Then you give her a lecture about attitude at work and how to handle colleagues. Don't let her interrupt while you talk. If she tries to interrupt which she will try tell her to pls keep quiet that you are still her boss. When you are done with the lecture then go on to thr more difficukt and uncomfortable part. Tell her to please forget what you mentioned to her about your wanting her that from this her nasty character, attitude and disrespect of colleagues and client it is now clear to you that you were mislead in thinking she was worth wanting. Then guy you archive her matter and close that chapter completely. You remain collegial, polite and nice to her just like your other workers. You don't do, act, look or smile at her in any different manner that will make her think she still get the power cos bros na power struggle una dey there and one person must blink first. 1 Like |

Kayoski:My mind guy. I concur 100%. Let her know that whatever transpired in the past or will transpires in the future is strictly business. She should conform or be fired. If she react negatively, bros, ask her to go immediately and pay her off. Her attitude may spread to your other workers and negatively impact your business. A stitch in time... NB: I belong to that school of thought that believe "if it is for a serious relationship" you are not wrong in asking her out in the first place. 2 Likes |

Re: I Want To Sack My Employee I Was Crushing On. by oluamid(m): 8:54am On Dec 19, 2015 |
Its pretty simple OP, she's blackmailing you emotionally. My advice: Call her to you office and calmly but firmly ask her to explain her recent behaviour. When she's done, let her know that though you value her personally as well as her contribution to the business, you value your business more and that is why you employed her in the first instance. Put your business first! Let her know you made advances towards her as a person and not as her boss. Then tell her you have since moved on and so should she. State instances of her bad behaviour and let her know the only reason you haven't reacted yet is because you value her contribution. Ask her if she wants to quit or not, and if not, tell her insubordination will no longer be tolerated as it is affecting the business. Finally, issue her a query in writing and let her know she's under probation and any more nuisance will earn her a sack. Continue to be professional in your relationship with her and keep everything strictly formal. If she steps out of line again you know what to do. I hope this helps. *Make sure you record your conversation without her knowing. 1 Like 1 Share |

Op, it's not wrong to have a crush on your employee and telling her about bow you feel was not a mistake. Your first mistake will be sacking the lady. Don't talk to her alone, call a general end of the year meeting, appreciate all your employees for their support and state the things you can't stand. you're the boss, u call the shots. Treat this lady like any other staff. DO NOT SACK THE LADY! 2 Likes |
Re: I Want To Sack My Employee I Was Crushing On. by Nobody: 9:02am On Dec 19, 2015 |
with that kind of behaviour, she would run your business down... she feels you are so in "love" that you cant do anything if she misbehave... if you are 100% business minded, you would realize it is time to let her go - sack her. mudility: |

I have always said it , do not attempt to woo a girl working for you or in your office especially when she is your subordinate. More so if you exercise a little patience you'll see most of the ladies you crush on tend have rank attitudes , now go and prepare that sack letter. |

sammieee:...bro am not saying the lady did the right thing, all am saying is,that is what happen when you ask your employee out at times. Work and passion should not be together. Am not saying you can't find love in your working place but there some firm or big companies in nigeria that if you find your spouse in your working place, one of you must resign although not all companies do so but that's the rules most of them follow. My job should be different from passion 1 Like |

Op never let a betrayal go unpunished or else you are done as a leader. You betrayed yourself when you asked her out. While she in turn betrayed you by questioning your methods. My advice to is that pay her all the benefits accrued to her and wish her luck in her future callings. In this game of managing people never take things too personal or that will be your downfall. |
