What is difficult for you can make you poor at work.
Have a human side.
But don't let the human side run your business and make decisions for you.
One of the restaurant owners felt sorry for some of the workers.
He decided to hire them and help them and give them a chance.
He paid recruitment fees, procedures, and expenses to bring them and start working with them.
And after the operation began, he discovered the surprise:
The workers are not qualified at all for the job he hired them for.
They need training from scratch.
They need time.
They need someone to teach them and follow up with them.
They need additional expenses.
And the restaurant needs to operate, produce, and sell.
The problem is that he is now faced with two choices:
Either he dismisses the unsuitable workers and bears the loss of what he has spent.
Or he continues with them and spends more in the hope that they will learn.
And he chose to continue.
Not because he is convinced that this is the right decision.
But because he cannot accept that he lost the money he paid from the beginning.
And here is the real problem:
Sometimes you lose money because you don't want to admit that you lost money.
The wrong decision doesn't have to be continued just because you paid for it.
Be humane.
Help people.
Give opportunities for learning and development.
And give the employee his full rights.
But don't hire someone just because you feel sorry for them.
And don't let emotion prevent you from evaluating their competence.
And don't continue a wrong decision just because you have spent on it.
If the employee has the willingness and ability to learn in a time and cost suitable for the business, train them and give them their chance.
But if the job requires a ready person from day one,
Hire the right person from day one.
Because a restaurant is not a charity.
And at the same time, it is not a place without humanity.
The right management is to be humane in your dealings and decisive in your decisions.
And always remember:
Not everyone who is difficult for you is suitable to work for you.
And not all the money you lost must be added to it to compensate for it.
