Im a 24 year old female. I'm having a hard time understanding certain parts of the workforce. I work in retail.
This is my question: is it professional for a manager to friend an employee that works under him/her on facebook? Not only does this certain employee engage in personal conversations with the boss but she thinks she is under her wing, more like she thinks she has more of an advantage towards the rest of the other employees that are leveled in the same position as her.
The gossip train part is where she'll gather all of what he/she (the boss) told her ( the employee) on facebook, assuming, and share it with people at work while on the clock.
I don't want any part of my boss's personal life, just the fact that he gives her the upper hand because they are close, on the flip side this employee treats me like total crap. It feels like a cat and mouse game.
Any advice? Please.
