Boss called me an annoying snitch for complaining about my lazy co worker?

I’d leave. Once his clients stop complaining or dropping him maybe then he will see.

I wouldn't stay in a company like that, disrespected by co-workers and management. If you are in London, message me, I'm looking for a cleaner for a restaurant.

Is your manager 15? That’s no way for an adult, responsible for managing other adults, to speak to an employee or indeed another human.

id he seeking out another role if I were you.

This

I remember being asked to come back from a holiday early when I applied for a job at a local primary school. I said I could not - which definitely offended. I could have enlarged and said that if I came back that would mean cutting the holiday short by three days, which was a totally unreasonable request, but I didn't. Didn't get the job, either. (I also said my DH would have something to say about compulsory after-0school clubs, too, which might have swayed them!)
I trust retail staff on the end of requests to come back during holidays email back (if at all) saying 'I am in Timbucktoo. Next flight out not for a fortnight. Unless you wish to charter me a private jet?' Sadly, I fear not. Employment rights have got far worse in the last 40 years.

I'd have told the boss to grow up and if possible to try to grow into his job as a manager.

This happens in retail. You are expected to check this app on your days off / holidays in case you are needed to come in plus management change your hours to suit the needs of the store . If you don't check your app they want to know why

How are things now, OP? I am really hoping you’ve set up your own business and things are thriving for you!

God, leave. Now

Firstly, what do you mean ‘on WhatsApp’? Managers are contacting you on your personal phones using WhatsApp? Big red flag there to start with. Secondly, management clearly don’t care about who does the work, as long as they don’t have to lift a finger. You need to find another job.

Leave. When you do forward that message to boss of boss.

It's the worst thing to do ,going behind other people to finish the job . I had one job where the other housekeeper was lazy snd I was rushing around trying to finish the job including things she neglected to do and i found out that she was accusing ME of being the lazy one and she was being believed . I soon found another job .

sounds like grounds for a reverse dismissal

ive been a housekeeper for around 9 years. In that time I’ve had 2 people sacked due to shoddy below par work. I will not come in and clean after someone who is on the same wage as me and doing the same job. I will not have more work created for myself because someone can’t be arsed to do their job properly.

That must be so frustrating. You obviously take your job seriously and actually care x

I think the fact is, there’s such a shortage of people wanting to work in the care industry, management are desperate to hold onto any staff and over looking poor attitudes and shoddy standards.

It may be the same with op’s cleaning company- they will recruit and hold on to incompetent staff because very few people want to do that job. They need “bodies” to fill slots. It’s really shit practice.

I work in a nursing home and I have 1 Co worker who.i hare working with because she's so lazy miserable bitter and jealous

I find it quite laughable that posters are urging op to take sick leave or contact “HR” . No such thing exists for the majority of cleaners working for agencies (who are treated appallingly on the whole). Some are trafficking workers illegally from other countries and paying them virtually nothing.

All the decent cleaners who actually want to work hard and earn good money, are independent sole traders, and I can’t urge you enough to consider that too op..

She is either a relative or a friend or even a lover of your manager. You can't win in that situation find another job.

Totally with you, OP.

Oh dear - expecting a manager to actually manage her staff, instead of dossing around, taking the pay, and leaving people on a lower grade to do the difficult stuff of telling their colleagues off. Managers are paid to have those difficult conversations, and to follow up and ensure their requests are carried out.

Pathetic and shameful - I've heard of this happening so many times.

Gon on the sick for a fortnight and he'll soon see who was doing the work. Seriously just leave

I'd speak to some temping agencies and see if you can get enough immediate work to quit right away. Then you can take satisfaction in leaving such an unpleasant little man in the shit!

Do you get sick pay? If so, go on the sick with work related stress. Complain to HR and show them the message, spend the time searching for a new job or setting up your own cleaning business, people are desperate for reliable cleaners who are not lazy.

Then when you are ready and have maxed out your sick pay hand in your notice and never go back. As another poster said, she's connected to management in some way, she's getting special treatment.

If you are in the UK contact ACAS https://www.acas.org.uk/contact they are a government employment advice line and also do stage one mediation I believe, they're pretty good. Ultimately though it's probably going to be better to leave. Even if you took this all the way to court it would take a year or two of your life for a relatively small amount of 'financial remedy' that would immediately be used to pay off the solicitors (although you could use the legal protection portion of any insurance you hold with that provision.)

That reply sounds really professional. You’re working for and with children. Hope you can find a new job.

with experience as a cleaner you can get a job pretty much anywhere, I wouldn’t take another day of that, clearly the company don’t care and you are worth more than that kind of response.
