9 Reasons Bad Employees Are Never Fired.
9 Reasons Bad Employees Are Never Fired.
Have you ever received poor service from someone you expected should be helping you as part of his or her job? The answer is almost certainly “yes.”
And, if you’re like most people, you have probably also experienced the frustration of working with someone who made your own job more difficult.
In both cases you may have wondered, “Why don’t they just fire this person?”
Firing someone may seem easy in theory, but it is often a last resort for an employer. A bad employee’s supervisor may know that the employee isn’t performing up to snuff, but that supervisor — or the company — may have what they consider to be a good reason for not firing the employee.
Whenever you encounter someone who you think deserves to be fired — either in your own workplace or elsewhere — consider if any of the following might be the reason the bad employee is still on the job:
1. The employee has a relationship with someone higher up.
This is Kenya hence this reason coming tops. A relationship doesn’t necessarily have to be romantic or family, although either is a possibility. In many cases, the relationship that keeps someone from getting fired is friendship. The bad employee may not perform well on the job, but may be a drinking buddy for your boss, or may simply be someone that senior management enjoys having around the office.
2. The boss relies on the employee.
when a supervisor depends on an employee, the supervisor is less likely to attribute poor performance to the employee’s ability or attitude, and more likely to attribute the poor performance to forces beyond the employee’s control.
3. The employee brings more value to the company than he or she costs.
Maybe the employee who jokes around and wastes other employees’ time at meetings is also a brilliant worker whose productivity has resulted in significant revenue for the company.
4. The boss thinks it could be worse.
Even if everyone knows the employee is not pulling his or her weight, management may fear that a replacement could do an even worse job. This fear is compounded if the company has previously had other people perform more poorly in the position.
5. The boss is afraid of the employee.
If there are concerns that an employee might sue the company or possibly become violent if fired, it may take longer to let that employee go. If there’s a threat, the company needs to consult with legal or security experts and put appropriate measures in place before letting a bad employee go.
6. The boss feels sorry for the employee.
In such cases, a boss is sympathetic to the employee, and not to those whom the employee’s actions may be hurting. The boss may worry that if the bad employee is fired, he or she won’t be able to find another job. If the employee needs the money to support a family, has health problems, or has recently experienced another life challenge, the boss may feel it’s best to let the employee keep the job.
7. The boss doesn’t want to go through the hiring process.
It takes time to review applications, conduct interviews, check references, and train a new person. The boss may believe it’s easier to deal with the consequences when the bad employee messes up rather than deal with hiring a replacement.
8. The employee knows something.
The employee might know something embarrassing about the boss, but it’s more likely he or she simply knows historical information that the company needs today. For example, if the employee is the only one who knows how to operate an ancient piece of equipment that the company still uses, your employer may need to keep the employee around.
9. The employee has everybody fooled.
In their book “Snakes in Suits,” Paul Babiak, Ph.D. and Robert D. Hare, Ph.D., explain that a surprising number of workplaces employ psychopaths. While psychopaths make up 1 percent of the general population, Babiak and Hare found that 3.5 percent of the executives they worked with “fit the profile of the psychopath.” Psychopathic employees are pathological liars who get away with doing little or no work. They charm senior management with their “leadership potential,” con co-workers into covering for them, and successfully blame others for their mistakes. If you’re the only one who sees what they’re up to, you’re in a tough spot. Sometimes it’s the whistle-blower who gets fired, not the snake.

Dealing With Boredom At Work.
Dealing With Boredom At Work.
I’m at a point (again) where I find myself brooding about career options. You see I’m two months shy of celebrating my third year with my current employer. Although, I’m not 100% certain if I should celebrate or not.
Work-wise, everything seems to be stable. But the stability bores me sometimes. I try to find ways to create more excitement so that my days at work wouldn’t be all ho-hum and dreary. Of late, I do more ancillary projects for the boss so that I’ll be more productive.
What do I do when faced with bouts of boredom at work?
1. I re-visit my CV and update it.
2. Touch base with former colleagues and other professionals in social networking sites. I am a fan of twitter
3. Check out internet job sites to see if there are opportunities better than what my current employer offers.
4. Catch up on industry-related trends. In short, I should read up more about Human Resource
5. Consider going back to school? I’m not really sold to the idea. The biggest hurdle with school at this point is the lack of time to do it. And not to mention, the additional expenses that will drain my savings.
No matter how we love our jobs, there will come a point wherein we feel that we’ve reached the plateau. I believe that it’s part of the cycle in one’s career and it’s entirely up to us how to make it more exciting.
Are you bored with your job?
