Tom Mendola's Case

For the Case on Tuesday, we discuss about whether we should fired ¬¬¬¬Tom Mendola. I personally believe that he should be fried due to his misbehavior and not welling to improve after several warnings. At the beginning it was really hard for me to come up with reasons to keep this young man besides his family condition and his family really needs help. However, this reason was not able to convince me to keep him in real world. After the group discussion, I was able to see this problem from a different angle. It is very interesting to hear Shawn’s idea of rotating the job and think about this problem deeply from the employee’s shoe. In stead of push all the responsibility to the worker and want them to improve, the company is being more humanize and generous by trying to understand that it is a boring job and trying to make this job less boring through rotating the job. This rotating job may cause a bit more work for the company, but this will be able to show their employee how much the company cares about them. According what we have learned through the HR simulation, this will be able to increase the moral within the company. By making the job less boring, the company will also be able to reduce the accident rate and hopefully improve the productivity. This class not only teaches me what I can do when such a situation happened, but also shows me how important it is to think outside of the box.
