Employer Etiquette Sheet...

aka what not to do when one employee has put in the papers..

if you are connected to me through any of the other web 2.0 websites then you would know that i resigned recently and am working from home... i had a verbal resignation followed by formal email which at that moment was graciously accepted... what really ensued was a month of pandemonium and total amusement.. amusement, 'cause i was totally amused by the antics of the management, often that left me "like WTH??"

Don't give a we-should-part-happily talk on the first day of the notice period..
--> Who are you lying to? Employee will be spaced out all through the talk and i bet you don't believe in your lie yourself.

Don't increase the targets and deadlines out of blue..
--> The person is in notice period...if you over burden chances are that even your initial targets won't be met..

In my case, i was asked to give 40 articles in an hour.. yeah rite, i am a super girl and have a secret pen which writes at its own will with little instruction from me... #%#^&*

Do your research if you are going to find faults with the employee..
--> After so many months of employment, obviously the employee would have closed down all the project especially when she is planning to leave.. do your research properly...

with me, the Bugger first blurted that i outperform others constantly.. then he bit his tongue and said i should justify my work... well now, seriously what are trying to say dude??

Don't torture the employee, if you are planning to ask the employee to stay back..
 --> Seriously, if you are asking her, she should have a good experience to consider your offer..

i turned off the offer within seconds..

Don't ever play with the payments by stopping them or reducing them without reason..

or you will get to see the BadraKaali in me doing the Rudhrathandavam, which they did..

P.S # This post was in the offing for quite sometime now.. was waiting for the payments to be cleared, just in case :D
