[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Making her pay for your stroller, when you know you are also planning to let her go when convenient for you, likely with no notice, IS bullying. You just don't like her, but you know this is your responsibility. Yes it sucks that she lost it. But guess what? Employees lose and break things. That's the cost of employing human beings. [/quote]

OP here and while I agree that, yes, accidents happen and people lose things, if you worked in an office and say you lost your company laptop you would be forced to replace it. You can't have a disregard for your employers possessions and expect that there aren't consequences for that. The fact that we are letting her go should have nothing to do with it. It is also most definitely NOT bullying and I think that's offensive for those who actually have been bullied. She offered to pay for it, I'm going to say no but accepting her offer isn't bullying in ANY way. I was also extremely polite when discussing this with her even though I was extremely pissed. She also didn't bother to mention to me that she noticed the stroller was missing for 2 days when she'd been the only one driving the car and DH and I have been working all week. I can't magically make a new one appear by Monday either so now I have to order it and pay extra to expedite the shipping so SHE can have one to use this week. [/quote]
