IMHO, you must have been tolerating her for sometimes even before you contemplate to fire her. I would be incline to extend her probation just to be on the safe side. To err to the side of caution is the best approachmacaroonie wrote:There are some improvements! Though i think when it comes to attitude, that can't be changed substantially unless the person really wants to change. I know that firing is necessary sometimes, and it certainly shouldn't be viewed as the easy way out right?
Sorry to be abrupt. Knowing that she's new in your organization and she's being cocky and rude? There must be some wrong with her not just the attitude. Every time, I step into a new office/organization, I never was once rude or cocky. It's just wrong.macaroonie wrote:I have tried sitting down and talking once, things improved a bit and then on the slide again. Cocky, rude behaviour towards people. There is a difference between being outspoken and being rude and offensive. Definitely not a team player. I keep thinking that perhaps i can change this person and give them the chance to grow and wise up, but any attempts to help are met with defensive behaviour. Doesn't seem to see there is a problem.
Feel really bad firing someone when the economic situation is not that great and going to get worse. There are many worse people out there, am i being too strict with my standards?

I very much doubt that you'd ever have to worry about that in Singapore. MOM has the opinion that since, subject to the employment contract and notice period, an employee can resign at any time without having to give a reason, the employer can also fire the employee without having to give a reason.gcharles wrote:After chatting with her and the attitude still goes on, I think you'll need to let her sign a written warning, indicating your terms. So if ever the day comes, you'll be able to defend yourself if she files a complain.
