Op your a man, at this time in your life there's nothing like elder or junior. Respect them but don't let their age intimidate you. I don't want to type much. Make sure you're a man among men.......

wunmi590:nothing says you can't be respectful and still be strict with your job, my current boss is very respectful, not just to the older staffs but also the younger and we all do our jobs well. Just don't turn out like the former who talks to his grandparents mate like he birth them simply because he went to school and they didn't |

Leave Yoruba sentimental respectfulness at home. If a younger person even if he is a child in in position, they should respect the office/position, not the person. These same people you talk about...assume you are the son of the chairman, just fresh out of secondary school, and have the power to sack without question, you'll see these same old people rolling on the floor for you - it's called eye-service. These same people will be the one gossiping about you being weak. Better, they say behind you 'werey ma l'oga yen' that boss is a mad man, better do his task than risk his wrath. Like someone said, leave out sentiments, do your work, else someone else will do it for you. If a 39year old could be the preside over a country like France, I see no reason why a 24 year old can't run a small department within an organisation or even run the company itself. Free yourself from excessive moral upbringing...it doesn't mean you respect/don't respect people. |

I worked as a consulting site engr. I worked alone most times and had an official car that commanded respect. I supervise mainly people who were older than me and far richer. Most were far experienced than i was. I had even expatriates work under me. They were contractors and subcontractors. I gave them respect and demanded they do what i expected of them. I need not exchange words or disrespect them, a bad report would do them a lot of damage, so they respected my position. One time, i worked with a retired AGM who was a contract Project Manager. He has had cause to beg me on behalf of his company. The odd thing happened when i visited my uncle who was also a serving AGM where the PM left. I met this PM with my uncle and the 3 of us said at the same time do you know this man. I has been difficult to refuse the PM onwards, that meeting always interfered with my judgement. I still have the courage to tell him to do his best so as i wont have to take any action. I took my first real bribe from this man, thats how bad he has affected me. When it came to my colleagues, they were even older than my own father. I have had cause to have serious verbal altercation with a senior expatriate colleague as old as my father. Overall, it is the responsibility of the junior colleague to respect his age and i will respect him too. |

What if you happened to be recruited as a boss in a big company where your dad worked for years, and by twist of fate/rescheduling, you were made the head of the team over your own dad who suffered to train you through school while he was working in that same company; would you resign from the job? or would you stay and be your dad's boss.?? As for me,, I won't resigning. But I won't disrespect him while discharging my duties.. In fact, I would make him be so proud that he trained a son who is shinning and doing well. |
