Hi Fishes, Can you guide me on pairing round for Thoughtworks, the problem statement is joy of energy (java). If anyone has recently attempted pairing round with this problem, can you please help with expectations in interview like refactoring or new implementation etc. Thanks in advance. Thoughtworks
I think it depends a lot on your existing relationship with your boss and with the company. If it’s a small business and your boss is sincerely concerned about its success, and you have a close working relationship, go for it! But I remember my last food service job; if my then-boss acted emotional I stayed the heck away!
Agreed, you gotta get a read of your relationship with them AND also consider that opening that door fundamentally changes the level of trust with you and your employer. It might be a can of worms that you might not want to open
Depends how close you are to them I guess. I prefer to steer away from getting too close with anyone I work with but if you consider a boss someone you care for then it's understandable if you wanted to comfort them in some way.
Comfort him and tell him that there are good days and bad days if everything has been done so that the food tastes good and the best service, sometimes you just have to be patient.
The most important thing in a restaurant is attention and good food, sometimes it takes us more time to create a loyal clientele, but when you have it, everything flows so it's a matter of time, console him that everything will be fine.
It must be a very difficult situation for your boss, surely he invested a lot of money in the restaurant and things have not turned out as expected, every investment is a risk but comforts him, accompany him in difficult times so that you can also accompany him in good times.
For a while we had economic problems in the restaurant/hotel where I work, people did not come and everything became difficult, there was talk of closing, but one day a family came to celebrate a birthday, we treated them very well and with a lot of nostalgia because we had in mind the possibility of closing, surprisingly everything changed that week people began to come to our place and many people said they were acquaintances of that birthday family.
I'm guessing it's not in your contract that you have to be emotionally available for your boss so from that perspective you don't really need to act one way or the other. In scenarios like that it's best to use your intuition and do what feels right for you
The best thing you can do is support him and you can stay by his side, a person going through these moments is difficult, it is more important than everything because that person is in danger of being depression.
Oof I imagine that must hurt, I've never really worked somewhere where people don't show up to eat so I don't have any firsthand experience dealing with that. Can't imagine it's too good for morale to see your boss break down in front of you though
Leave them be. They'll come around when they're ready. I don't know what your relationship with your boss is like, but in my place of employment, reaching out to them would be a no-no. Our boss is very private with their life outside of work.
If your boss is openly crying, it is best to comfort them. If they are trying to keep it together, it may be best to leave them alone.
They may feel overwhelmed or upset that no customers came in, and it's notyour job to make them feel better, but you can show sympathy and understanding, and let them know that everything will be alright.
Was it the manager or the owner? Either way, it seems as if they’re worried about their own job. So you should be too. Start shopping for work at a company that can support you. You’re in a sinking ship.
