Informal metting

[Kindcaring]

Hi first time poster. Will keep it short. Was having issues with area manager with regards to her wanting to change my days off and other issues that i wanted to disscuss so spoke to HR and a informal chat/meeting was arranged. The meeting went ahead with us both. And we both took notes. But then things started to go down hill and off track and i felt wasnt been heard(raised my concern to HR) b4 meeting this wud happen. So i basically said meeting over.( was my day off also) i was asked to sign her notes to which i replied i was not agreeing or signing anything and to tell HR to send me copies and i left. Ive still not had any type of follow up or copies or even HR asking if i felt the meeting helped. Not a thing. Is that normal

It does not sound like you have handled this very well. You seem to have involved HR immediately, flounced out of the meeting that you instigated and then refused to acknowledge the meeting notes, which I am sure involved the opportunity to question.

You haven’t mentioned how long ago this was so impossible to say whether you should have expected to hear anything by now. But considering you are the one that ended the conversation, I would recommend that you take the onus to ask for the conversations to be resumed if that is what you want to do.

The informal meeting was originalky going to be a grievance as issues are getting rather out of hand. Recent problems/issues that led me wanting to raise a grievence. As shop manager i had no say or involved in any part of recuiting my my new assistant... the job was advertised at 24hr but her contract is only for 16hrs plus 4hrs overtime. Asked why was told because it is. i was then told not to be present on certain days the following week. As area manager wasnted to work ALONE with new assistant. So HR advice was needed who arranged informal meeting. With a set agenda on what was to disscussed. I went out my way on my day off to be there. For the whole thing to be side tracked not sticking to the agenda and then insisting i sign her notes. I was asking is it normal for no follow up or if i was ok with outcome etc. As these said issues that have not been dealt with or disscused are STILL causing and impacting work.

What was it sidetracked to?
