[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s be real here.  If you’ve ever been a supervisor you know that dealing with people complaining about unfair treatment between colleagues is tough to manage.  Putting the wfh / hybrid management decisions on individual supervisors is a thankless task for them, they will never be able to get it right to everyone’s satisfaction.  Higher level consistent  rules (not just “guidance”) is needed.  Same for any organization, not just the government.

Being a supervisor you have to balance performance with employee satisfaction and retention - including avoiding resentment over perceived or real favoritism.  Some on this thread seem to think that’s easy to do.  [/quote]

Yes, supervisors get paid more because their job is hard. Don't take the job if you don't want to do it.

The main thing I take away from the countless complaints about "slacking" in any location is that supervisors are afraid to make direct statements about their expectations, let alone have an uncomfortable conversation with someone about performance. "Managing" is an actual job and skillset that requires thought: it isn't just the thing you automatically do when you've been working for 10 years and the old manager retires. [/quote]
