It was a beautiful weekend here in Florida. We dined with our friends Jeff and Stephanie on Saturday night and cherished a nice last night sitting on the patio of the restaurant. Stephanie was informing us about how she was getting a little tired of her job.
Do you sometimes feel like your coworkers might be talking about you? Have you ever suspected if they can be? What do they really think of you or those around you? A friend of my husband’s worked at a car dealership as a line mechanic. Someone told him that he had a rumor that he was going to be canned. When he asked his supervisor about the gossip, he assured her that he was the best line technician they had and there was no way something like this could happen. A few days later, his boss called him into the office and fired him on the spot just three weeks before Thanksgiving.
I myself was once an office manager for a publishing house. Since I had marketed insurance in the past, they wanted me to run a new sales team, so I also called many schools to sell our educational programs. I was the backbone of this company. I would go to work faithfully whether I felt bad or not.
One morning, I had a very bad toothache. I absolutely had to go to the dentist. The vice president had called me on the phone on the way back to the office from the dentist. I was only gone for maybe an hour. When I got back to the office, he told me that they don’t really do any sales when I’m not there. They really missed me, and even bought me small weekly gifts like coffees, etc.
The exact same week, it had been my 2 year anniversary with that company. The president called me into the office and informed me that they can no longer afford to keep me there! I tell you, just as you think everything is fine, it very well might not be. Backstabbing in the workplace is maddening and never stops.
If you want to uncover the gossip in your workplace, I have just what you need! We have a professional grade digital voice recorder.
This is a small, slim, high quality, affordable and convenient little gadget! It only records as it picks up sound and has up to 288 hours of recording time! You can hide it anywhere you might assume conversations might be taking place, like a break room. You can also hide it in your pocket if maybe someone is talking bad about a good partner of yours, you can let them hear it for themselves! I can think of a million uses for it!
Appease your curiosity today!
Yours in safety,
