Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

You have chicks?!!! So sorry I missed this. How exciting. Legbars are a recognised breed here too so eventually America will catch up.

I do - three! .
I introduced Bella first: https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-25534203
There is one more to introduce once she has agreed what her name is.

As I said, I am making changes. This will not happen again to my people. I have spoken with all of them about it and I did not lose anyone over it so I have limited the damage. They do not report up through his portion of the organization and he and I are peers.

Glad that you have some power here to effect change and help make their employment experience a good one. You have such a good heart!

Can you/do you evaluate him in any way? Are you able to give constructive feedback about this to him or his boss???? You have important work and, from what I hear, it is tough getting enough employees in all healthcare sector atm. why would he want to do this? 1 rigorous thought question that involves more than one topic covered is okay; trick questions are not! Tell him a well trained, seasoned educator said so!

I hate to say this, but he must have a confidence issue (he may appear cocky as a disguise....) Usually confident, well adjusted individuals don't need to 'trick' others into doing poorly. Generally only those that really aren't self confident (whether they exude confidence it or not), or just plain 'mean' people, or power hungry people need to have the 'gottcha' moments that there isn't a call for.

Sorry, as a teacher, bullying, condescending, intimidating behavior really p**s me off. Counter productive, scarring, etc, etc. If you are there to train/teach, then TRAIN & TEACH!!!!

Bless you for even trying to deal with him!

and very good points

I am glad, you are a good leader, it's challenging for sure to hire and keep good personnel

Ok enough said! Here is a smile, I caught the gang hanging out in a stall doing whatever it is they do when I am at work. I love my cameras!!!

Lovely ladies, are they friends?

Boedicia, the Celtic warrior queen

How about Maeve if you like Irish warrior women

Wow, does that look miserable! (Snow storm)
I’m relaxing with my rooster buddy. Not much else to do right now. (This little guy has a feather picking problem lately) he’s asleep on me now.

Sorry to hear about the feather picking, hope he settles...

Sorry to hear about the feather picking, hope he settles...

I hope so too. I’m having a poor chicken day all around today. Bobo bit me, Rocks-Anne is being distant, the rest are begging for meally worms, which I don’t have at the moment. And one egg out of nine laying hens.

If at all possible, I would love to just take this day all over again (somehow better)

Sorry to hear you're having a crappy day

I got 9 eggs today...
