[s]You didn't read the post properly..you just rushed to comment because you want to be "first to comment"....Just see how you embarrassed yourself. FYI, the 100k is for the company and it's her target... so that's not her pay.[/s]

Don't be silly
I obviously misunderstood the lady's post a little
If you can't correct someone without sounding like a fucktardic dumbass
Don't bother quoting the person.
And I don't do this first to comment nonsense

It is either you forgive him or be a BOSS of yourself.
Re: My MD Slapped Me, Please I Need Your Advice by Prosperousman(m): 6:59am On Aug 02, 2016
Don't resign because of anger, your resignation would not close the company or change your boss reputation. Worst things like this happens but it should not make you loss focus. Don't ever think you're indispensable no matter how talented you're. Sorry for the SLAP

He has no right to slap you even though you were at fault too. To treat his f...up, it will cost you something. Pls forgive for now. Make it his 1st warning.

Very wrong of him to hit you but on the contrary, very very wrong of you as a supervisor to attend to a customer with food in your mouth. Next time, eat in private while another attendant sees to the customer. This should apply to all staffs...

Hello lenposh
Your story is like a king who invites his friends for his sons wedding and insists on a particular dress code but because of familiarity, one of his friends disobeys the dress code. Do you know what the king did to that friend?, he tied him hands and legs bound and threw him out or so (matt 20:1-14).

The fact that u claim u are the alpha and omega at your job place like u claim dosent mean u should lack your professionalism and attend to a customr with food in your mouth, even a sweet is wrong because it alters your communication and its childish, unprofessional and not cool. Imagine dressed up in a neat suit and u chewing meat or have a stick sweet while signing an important contract papers in front of your buisness partners....naaaaa

What u should have done is stay low in the reception counter and finsih what was in your mouth before u attend to anyone. The customer can wait (that's like a 30seconds wait).

PS: you lucky your boss is begging you not to resign.


But do u know that is officially wrong for you to slap a staff in an organization be you anybody
Re: My MD Slapped Me, Please I Need Your Advice by cleanclean(m): 7:14am On Aug 02, 2016
Sincerely speaking my brother, two wrongs cannot make a right. You should let go for the sake of God and his kingdom, not necessarily because there is no job out there or because you are weak.
Thank you.
Re: My MD Slapped Me, Please I Need Your Advice by eyinjuege: 7:15am On Aug 02, 2016
To be honest with you, as an employee, you are entitled to at least 30minutes to one hour of break time.
You are expected to eat to stay alive, and if you're not allowed any break to do that then your employers are wicked.
There should be someone else there to man your position while you're on break.
Its obvious he is wicked anyway for assaulting you. I do not blame you so much for eating and attending to the customer that came in while you were. It was a decision you had to make in split seconds. Either keep him waiting which might have become another brouhaha or attend to him with your mouth full.
That wasn't your fault but the poor systems/policies in place at your place of work. I'm sure its a law somewhere about this break time thing for workers.
The man needs to be reported to the police for slapping you, and as someone said earlier you should be able to get compensation. But as also pointed out, this is Nigeria. You may end up getting nothing.
Its your decision anyway, but even if you have to go back there, let them know you intend to to be taking your break time so that such won't happen again.

My name is Sewa, I work in an hotel at Iyana Ipaja as a bar supervisor. Am a graduate of Lapostech (HND). I work 24 hours because of the nature of my job and its a day off and on, meanwhile mine has been 3 days on and one day off because I make more money than others. Before I got to this hotel as a staff, they make lesser than I make now. Per day, my target is 100k but I make 130k at worst because we have club in the hotel as well.
It happened on friday when a customer wanted to buy a wine and I was eating before the customer came in, I was still chewing my meat when the customer came in and I tried to attend to the customer with the meet in my mouth because I do not want to delay him. In that process, my Managing Director came in and slapped me 2times in the presence of customers and even guys that were making wooing me, his reason was that I attended to a customer while eating. We not have break time in this my place of work o.
He slapped me and I worked away to continue my work but I want to revenge. I do not want my silence to be in vain.
My manager has been begging me not to resign because I dropped my resignation letter that day. He is begging me to come back.
What would you do if you were in my shoes?


You shouldn't have even been talking while eating. It is the way you carried yourself that will make him slap you. I ama what I know is that we are proud and no apologies.

What I will do ? I will immediately slap him there and like 3 times


You can take away money from a man ..he is still a man
But
When you take away dignity from a man he has lost his manhood .

Take it or leave it ...your dignity has been taken away


Are you tied to that hotel job,is he your destiny maker. People and stupidity seff.

Well you have been slapped now eat the humble pie


Take a firm decision that makes you a man ...

My MD can talk to me anyhow ..even in the talk there is limitations on what he can talk not to even slap me...if he does that ..he has signed his warrant


I don't forgive easily
Re: My MD Slapped Me, Please I Need Your Advice by Lifestone(m): 7:17am On Aug 02, 2016
You are in a weak position now, if you know anything about the art of war, keep your peace and pick your fight when you are in the position of strength.
While I do not support your boss animalistic behaviour, it's impolite for you to attend to customers with meat in your mouth.
Just imagine how you will be sounding like talking with mouthful of meat. Lol.

He has just thrown that ladder you are looking for before your very eyes. That's the best time to renegotiate if you still want to work there.

Meanwhile, I will still blame you a little. Attending to a customer in a hotel with meat in your mouth is very wrong. You are the hotel customers are seeing and not the manager or owner. You should represent those values and quality you pasted on the wall very well. Plan yourself next time.

Lessons

Never you think your are indispensable all of us are expendable

Never you allow any man to take away your dignity

Never you think that a job is the best in life always believe in yourself not the job
Re: My MD Slapped Me, Please I Need Your Advice by SaintAlbert53: 7:24am On Aug 02, 2016
I don't know how much you're being paid there because you didn't mention it,but if you believe there's hope of getting any new job as soon as possible, then quit the present job..If there's no hope of any for now,you just have to forgive and forget about it.Dont stop searching for a new one anyways,I really don't buy the idea of a lady working in a club too,and I would say you learn how to place yourself there also.The way you present yourself to people outside,is the way you gonna be treated..

To err is human, and forgive divine. Leave vengeance to God and move on. In life there are so many people who will treat you badly, but the best revenge is forgiveness.

Re: My MD Slapped Me, Please I Need Your Advice by seunoni34(m): 7:29am On Aug 02, 2016
Im just feeling sad at the soft comments here. I can never take a slap from anyone no matter how much they're paying me. This is crazy and barbaric! WTF, some people are advising you to stay? This is high level slavery! Let me tell you something, physically abusive men never change, especially men who slap grown ups at any slight provocation.

Your conduct may be unprofessional but his reaction is far from unprofessional and now an infringement on your right as a citizen.

You either do anything in your power to sue him or leave the company. If you stay, one thing is certain, you'll never get that respect back. Another day will surely come, trust me.
He might even r@pe you one day and you'll do nothing about it! You'll get weaker and weaker until the abuse will finally become a norm. And you'll hate yourself.

I work for someone who pays me well enough to buy my basic needs, as arrogant as he can be at times, I make sure I set my boundaries with him.

Anybody who can hit an adult for any reason except in self defense should be avoided at all cost.

The managing director slapped her, the manager is begging her. The former is the boss and can't see value in her, but the manager runs the place and appreciates her input , unfortunately he doesn't have the final say.

When you guys read, pick the details, then you can advise with insight.

Just saying.

But then, he has no right to ASSAULT her. No one does. He'd be rubbing his nose against iron bars and paying through them if it were here.

It is primitive to raise your hand against people because you want to "correct" them . Query her. Their are ways of dealing with professional misconduct without assault or discrimination.

FFS!
