Work colleagues

Seriously, you need the shit sandwich technique here.

”cuntybas is clearly intelligent, charismatic  and capable of progressing.  Informal feedback from colleagues suggests that he can give the impression of coasting and lacking application at times. (Insert example eg morning meeting he organised on his day off). He  could address this by taking increased responsibility for completion of tasks without delegating inappropriately. He could develop his ability to lead by example by more visibly taking ownership of issues to resolution. If cuntybas can address these perception issues there is no reason he can’t realise his full undoubted potential in this role.”

This is why it’s a very bad idea to send this guy anything, especially something that could be read as negative. You’re opening up a can of worms by complying with this, particularly if your boss / HR is unaware of you doing it. He’s at it. You’re being set up. Go along with this and I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re out of a job long before this c**t is.

Absolutely.

I've seen this happen to a colleague before. Do not, do not, do not send anything to this guy.

Nothing good can come of it.

Send something negative: Potential big problem in terms of bullying or some pish like that.

Send something positive: May well find you are covering his back for something and digging your own grave.

Stay well away.

I initially read that as your mate being sacked immediately, which would be the most likely scenario at most places I've worked.

Your mate's boss must have been on the fiddle or something. Or someone in HR wanted to pump your mate.

I'd ask his boss if he has told the guy to ask for 360 degree feedback as that's the only thing I can think of if he's being performance managed. I'd only give him the feedback if the answer is yes.

F***s sake, boys, there's a separate thread for that sort of shit...

I spoke to my manager and apparently he has gone out to numerous people asking for feedback as well.  All feedback should be done through line managers, what my boss thinks is happening is that he's trying to screen feedback so he can present loads of positives to the management team.  It's dishonest and not the way that feedback is usually done.

Good initiative there from the workshy one.

First world problems thread for this pish but I am deeply suspicious of colleagues who have the arm rests of their chairs set so they bang into the edge of the desk.

I just checked mine and I am guilty of this. Sorry.

Chris's dilemma reminds me of someone I interviewed a few years ago. He clearly didn't grasp the concept of a competency-based interview and, having failed to give a relevant answer any of the questions, produced what he thought was going to be his trump card - a survey of his colleagues asking what they thought of him.

I have no issue in sending the feedback to both the line manager and the colleague. So long as you’re constructive, then no issue with you providing the feedback directly to him. If the guy receiving the feedback is offended, then he really shouldn’t be asking for feedback.

 

Grow a set and just give him the feedback directly.

It's not about someone being offended, it's about what they might do with it.

You never know what's going on with someone else and they might use the feedback from you to defend him or herself and pass the buck to you for something you are unaware of.

Alternatively, they might take offence at what you say and make a complaint about you. Regardless of how honest or true the feedback is.

There is no good reason to do this. Nothing to do with 'growing a set'.
