Managers who don’t drive ..

My manager is responsible for 3 sites but hardly visits 2 because she doesn’t drive. So she’s always at the same one and tries to run the other 2 from a distance.
Occasionally she’ll plan in a day at the other 2, planned in advance because of public transport but it’s always a hassle. And she’s never able to just pop over if there’s a staffing issue so will ask other staff to cover because she can’t get there…
AIBU to find it rather unprofessional to be a non-driver when you are required to look after several sites.
And yes, I do judge people who don’t drive and find having a driving license part of being a fully functioning adult if you live outside of London 🫣

Give it a rest! So tired of these repetitive threads about non drivers.

She says she finds it a bit scary to learn to drive

And there’s lots of reasons she might not drive that she has no obligation to share with yiu

I think then work should pay for her to have taxis.
