Very bad of him.
He doesn't want to pay it, since the girls might have played a fast one on him.
My dear, don't worry. Better days ahead.

If you are female, may be he is interested in you and if male, he doesn't like you or want you around.

This one is hard o, next time make him sign on the docket simple. He may have been drunk but when the shayo clear you have a good legit evidence. God help you!


You are really an experience hospitality business person.

Kudos. He Op could have done that. That is the right way when dealing with Owner's bill.. It must be signed, either as complimentary bill or to be paid.

Take the bill to account and explain it to them there. Hopefully it will be posted to his bill. Once had such issue in my office.

I think your boss was drunk when he took that decision of telling u not to collect money for the champagne from the ladies. He is now in his normal senses, and he is also trying to put the blame on u.
Re: How Can I Handle This Particular Situation In My Place Of Work by MisterMan123456: 1:13pm On Sep 29, 2022
Does he have a boss? If he does, don't be scared to report him if that money is deducted from your salary. You have a witness. It's not that you misplaced money or can't give proper account. Infact you've given proper account with a witness to back you up and follow up emails sent.
If it gets to the stage you have to report him, make sure you watch your back else he me might set you up.

Hmmm....I can relate to what you're currently facing because I've been in similar shoes before, but I don't know why all this 'Hospitality Managers' like living fake life. A few of them even get to abuse their complimentary priviledge.

The truth is just make up your mind to pay because if you press him too much, he may get to pay but at the end still look for a means to set you up on the job..., no matter how hard working or smart you may be.

I'll advise you to meet him & tell him you've realised your mistake but he should kindly break the bill in instalments for you so that there will be something left from your salary.

Sorry about that....kindly see this as a practical lesson for the future.

People like you with ITK attitude. So if your boss wants to give you an oral instruction, you go remove phone start to dey record am?

The boss no try at all. If every statement he makes start receiving the kind of scrutiny that was required here, probably won't stay long on that job. What's the essence of working where you would be second-guessing any instruction from your boss?

I had a very similar case not so long ago.
My boss asked me to give a lady money, on a said day (in the lady's presence), that day no reach sef before the girl start to disturb my life.

Long story short, I gave her the money from the account 2 days after the said day and as soon as he saw the debit alert, baba start to rain insults on me and told me to get that money back!

How naaa?

I Sha left the work.
I can't be taking instructions that are clear and second guessing it or thinking if it's actually the opposite I'm supposed to do

Greetings,

My people,I am in a state of Dilemma...

I work as a waiting staff in a Cafe and Lounge.. Something happened on 2nd of this month (september),2022.

The Real story

Some ladies came to the lounge on 2nd Day of this month (2-09-2022) and ordered for a champagne (J.C.Le Roux) and water...We sell the champagne (30,000) while the water is (500).

My oga ordered for some food through me and he later fixed his own bill before the ladies.

N/B : The ladies were on their own separate table...I didn't see them interact with my oga in any way.

So,when my oga was about to go home,he called one of my colleague and told him that I should not collect the champagne money from the ladies,that I should just collect money for the water they took....So,I did as instructed...I collected just #500 from them.

So,I rushed to him to verify if he will be the one to fix the bill,he told me "Yes" that he will fix it.

The next day was my off day,so I didn't go to work....so,two days after....after the sales for the day as he was about to enter his car (we only give him his bills whenever he is about to go home in the night)....I rushed to give him the bill together with the one he accumulated for the day,he asked why the J.C.Le Roux docket is included in the bill.....I explained everything to him and he started yelling at me that I should have collected money from those ladies that night they took the champagne.

I had to call that my colleague that was present when he told me that he will fix those ladies bill,so he came and explained things to him.....He said "Okay" but he will not fix it from his purse that I have to fix it by myself that it will teach me a lesson next time....I was speechless as so many things ran through my mind.....Why exactly will I have to fix a bill that I didn't utilize myself.

I didn't say a word that night,I later sent him a mail explaining how everything happened and the receipt of the J.C.Le Roux which have the date and time the order was placed through my account....

He replied the Mail 3 days after and the mail reads (Well received)

I waited for him to clear up the bill but the sign was not there,I walked up to him and told him about it again and he said he will look into it....fast forward to 23rd of this month,I sent him another mail and he replied "Got it"

Till date he is yet to fix the bill and it's still pending on my account as an (outstanding).

I am really confused

My people,I need una advise....I really don't know what to do again.

It's the end of the month and my salary is at stake here.

Threesha:
Next time insist he sign off you docket or the hill or sending a mail replying that he would clear it or a combination of both

LESSON: Oral communication/agreement hold no water even in the law court.

That's not correct, with the exception of cases where specific laws requires that a transaction must be in writing (e.g property, long leases etc), an oral agreement carries equal weight in the eye of the law and the courts as a written agreement.

The challenge is that it is more difficult to prove an oral agreement. So, it is better, but not an absolute must, that an agreement is written.

In this particular case where there is a witness, the arrangement is as good as written. If this goes to court, the boss will likely lose.

He must have been very drunk that very night or just trying to be unnecessarily WICKED.

Thank God he passed the instruction thru your colleague and you also confirmed it.

Whatever happens stood your ground.

He wasn’t drunk. The idiot wanted to show himself but the girls probably turn him down. Now he is acting stupid by not honoring the champagne bill.

He probably was hoping to score one from one of the babes but I'm sure it didn't turn out to be and he decided to dump it all at your stead.

Not a very good man.

THAT IS EXACTLY MY THOUGHT!!

If you are in employment, and your manager/supervisor gives you an instruction which you believe might be controversial/get you in trouble later, here's what you should do.

At your earliest opportunity after receiving, but before carrying out the instruction, send him an email confirming your understanding of the instruction, and ask him to please confirm your understanding is correct.

If he doesn't respond on time and you are under time pressure to carry out the instruction, call him and get him to confirm again.

PS. This approach might not work if you have a toxic manager who may not take lightly to you asking for confirmation of an earlier instruction.
