How do you deal with your employees on lazy Fridays? - GoFuckYourself.com

KRL · 08-06-2004, 02:11 PM

Drives me nutty the way everyone in the office thinks just cause its Friday they can be so relaxed, not work as hard, take longer lunches and on top of it sneak out early.

WTF?

How do you deal with your staff on Fridays?

Hang a sign that says, beatings will continue until employee morale improves.

They look forward to when I go home now

dirtysouth · 08-06-2004, 02:17 PM

Hand out paychecks at 4:59 every Friday.

Nismo · 08-06-2004, 02:18 PM

Offer a raise to the ones who stay.

LOL that's so mean and deviously good.

GTS Mark · 08-06-2004, 02:38 PM

I give them all beer around 3:00pm.

We're a more relaxed environment here and our work day for the sales guys is not 9-5. More like 9am to 9am

Napolean · 08-06-2004, 02:43 PM

invest in some ankle shackles and chains, install them by the desks

curiousity will get the best of them, and they will ask what they are for, just tell them your hoping they never have to find out

NO way, not mean at all! It's an excellent idea in fact.

Friday is NOT the weekend. Should be very simple.

You could have dress down friday if other times theres a strict dress code.

Pay mon-thurs. if fridays seem like a waste. Send slackers home and mark it off allowed sick or vacation days.

Friday is just as important a work day as any other. Theres no excuse for any lower expectations on your part. Theres also no excuse for giving less than expected on any other day on their part. Just make it clear.

Fletch XXX · 08-06-2004, 02:52 PM

if you people knew what i used to do during work hours and during the graveyard shift, none of you would hire me.

NichePay_Manny · 08-06-2004, 02:55 PM

Set up One day bonus for friday! Everyone loves extra cash before the weekend.

Jman · 08-06-2004, 02:57 PM

Drop a couple of red pills in the coffee machine and watch them go all day

devilspost · 08-06-2004, 03:01 PM

I get paid for productivity, I forget what its like to ride the clock.

Who cares? Unless you want to hire a bunch of Mexicans.. you are going to have too deal with this kind of thing from the North American workforce. If they make you more money then you pay em, it's all good.

emthree · 08-06-2004, 03:19 PM

This is why I stick to hiring freelance workers, or contract based workers.
When I put 1000%, I expect at least 100% from workers.

But your needs may be way off from mine.

robfantasy · 08-06-2004, 03:25 PM

arrange starbucks deliveries and if they don't like coffee pour it on their head

ronaldo · 08-06-2004, 03:26 PM

If it's EVERY Friday, you need to do something.

If it's the Friday before a big show, I'm afraid it's the nature of the beast.

I've noticed that before any big shows, the work atmosphere and business that gets done is virtually non-existent. Email and icq responses about business drop to next to nothing. Icq responses about what parties you'll be attending at the show however could keep you busy all day.

About a week after people have "Recovered" from the show, things go back to normal.

Thats what I did back in the day, gave out checks after clockout at 5. If i knew the guy was slacking that day, i'd send him home, close the office 30 minutes early. Make an example of one of them.

Big Ray · 08-06-2004, 04:02 PM

You think that's bad. Try getting people to work in a public company when your stock is at $243 a share and the receptionist is worth $5MM.

Talk about people glued to their datek streamer.

haha that's funny

xclusive · 08-06-2004, 04:19 PM

Tell them since they did so good messing around that next friday they will have to watch gigli over and over and that will continue til they are productive 5 days a week...

Holly · 08-06-2004, 04:49 PM

I usually have her go take a hot bath. Or sometimes, I send her outside to lay out by the pool for awhile. Occasionally, I like for her to go meet 3 or 4 of her girlfriends and have lunch, so they can talk about all the people they know and don't like. If her concentration is really off, I might send her to shop for shoes.

Just today, I had to make her take a 45 min. nap on the couch. Normally she doesn't do that, but I think she stayed up way too late last night and had to be somewhere at 8:30 this morning, so she's been really tired today.

Doctor Dre · 08-06-2004, 05:01 PM

Friday is the rhum n coke day . We bring 3 40oz and a lot of coke ... it's a chillin day
