how many of you work with your spouses and how do you make it work
dont get me wrong i love my wife and she does alot around here but she picks her days
we have a no cell phone policy in the store which i really try to stick to but my wife is always in hers checking facebook
and when i say something like we really need to lead by example she gets mad and says she isnt on it that much and the fight is on
she is a very social and outgoing person but that can be a problem also because when we start getting a rush she tends to spend a little to much time talking with the customers and not helping out which tends to piss off the staff she has made 3 previous day shift cooks mad and quit which means i have to train a new one because she only knows how to fix the dinners and she cant slap out pizzas and her topping skills are very slow
so our lunches have been kinda slow so i figure i can run a few errands because tehy should beable to handle right WRONG the students come in and all order dinners instead of eating the buffet the cook is in the middle of making a 10 pie order for the ag dept she gets 8-9 dinner orders and she is taking care of it pretty much order comes out she hits the bell, wife does’nt come, cook makes another order, rings the bell twice wife does’nt come, cooks makes a 3rd order as she is about to ring the bell wife comes in and says where art those cheese fries cook says they have been ready for about 10 minutes wife says well why didnt you ring the bell this in turns pisses of the cook which as i walk in cook is mad running around wife is up front socializing and says to me i don’t know what her problem is i cant keep working with her if she keeps getting mad
so i catch the cook in the walkin and ask whats up she says nothing i say tell me says i cant she is my boss i said no tell me then she proceeds to tell me everything that has transpired so I go and ask the wife she says no i was waitng on the customers and answeing the phones and taking out orders the fight is on
i love my wife but tend to believe the cook because of past experiences
wife gets mad picks up her purse and sets down the cordless and proceeds to head for the door (3rd time this has happened in the past)
how do you handle this type of situation an employee you would counsel or fire but youre wife
think we have hit the point where we gotta work seperate from each other
sorry for the long vent but i figured i could get some empathy from the fellow pizzaolios
