[quote=Anonymous]I have an employee who says "like" all the time and it drives me bat-shit crazy.  She is otherwise a very strong performer.  I have mentioned it to her on several occasions, including as part of her evaluation, and tried to be supportive and constructive.  I told her I have great respect for her work, and want others to also respect her work, but the overuse of "like" makes her sound immature and unprofessional.  She's in her mid 30s so it isn't as though she just rolled off a college campus. I can tell she thinks I'm crazy but I don't think she has any idea of how often she says it.

Anyhow, I know it's hard, but my suggestion would be to take the feedback and act on it.  I know it's tough to hear from someone who commits her own blunders but try to see it as an opportunity to improve an already good profile, and for extra credit, maybe even thank the supervisor for the constructive criticism so she knows you're taking it to heart.

Hopefully, she also takes the time to tell you when you do things right.  Good luck![/quote]
