'Should I take his advice?': Boss rudely suggests worker quits over scheduling change, employee considers it
Give some people even a shred of power, and they will preside with an iron fist… devoid of any sense of justice except the whims of their own stupid ego. They'll generally not be overly concerned with anyone else's needs or wants. All is well—just as long as they have their own way.
There's nothing inherently wrong with having to make changes to a schedule or roster; as a manager, that's just part of the job. Still, there are ways to do it and ways not to do it if you care a shred about the people you work with. Changes to a worker's schedule can disrupt their lives and lead them to face a lot of stress as they readjust to their work-life balance. And when not done with communication, consultation, and careful consideration, it can lead to team morale issues.
This worker was suddenly faced with a change to their long-held shift, with the manager wielding their authority to change the worker's shift without even letting the worker know. When the worker went to message the manager about their shift and conflict with availability and plans, the manager suggested they could quit if they didn't like it.
