🍼 職場關係BB班 | 公司無安排就無情講？特事特辦：停水、世界盃最考驗你同下屬嘅關係！
星期日有兩件大事，表面上好似唔關公司事，但聽日一返到公司，其實就係考驗你職場關係嘅時候。
💦 大事一：筲箕灣大停水，聽朝 6 點都唔知有無水？
筲箕灣區無預警大停水，預計受影響人數極多，最快都要聽朝6點先陸續有返水。今晚已經無得沖澡，聽朝返工前有無得沖涼刷牙？大家都無底。
- 💡 你有嘢可以做：就算公司高層無出任何特別工作安排（都預咗），你作為直屬上司，其實可以主動出擊。Send個訊息，主動關心住喺懷疑受影響區域嘅下屬，問句：「有無事？聽朝頂唔頂得順？…」
- ❤️ 你同下屬嘅關係係咪可以共患難，往往就係由呢啲細節建立。你主動行多一步，大家嘅信任度就加多十分。
⚽ 大事二：世界盃決賽踢到凌晨5點，聽日實有人「射波」？
今晚世界盃決賽，起碼睇到凌晨5點。聽朝邊個會準時、邊個會遲到、甚至邊個會射波（請病假），大家心知肚明。
- 💡 你有嘢可以做：如果平時你同條Team關係好、有雙向溝通，你一定知邊個會射波，甚至下屬一早會同你「夾定」放假或者調更。
- ❤️ 如果聽日真係有下屬突然無預警射波，又被你知道佢真係因為睇世界盃射波，事前又完全無同你單聲，咁你就知你同佢嘅關係其實好一般。不過唔緊要，唔好一嚟就黑面照肺，唔需要講或做任何野住，慢慢搵機會建立關係。
如果你做以下呢啲行為，就唔好問點解下屬唔鍾意你：
❌ 秋後算賬：表面上收咗病假紙，之後喺大細工作上處處針對、為難。
❌ 情緒勒索：喺其他同事面前單單打打：「邊個邊個今日病咗，真係揀得啱時間。」
❌ 一刀切管理：因為一個人射波，以後取消全 Team 所有突發請假、遲到嘅彈性。
🍼 The Office Playpen | No Policy Means No Flexibility? Handling Exceptions: How a Water Outage & World Cup Test Your Leadership!
Two major events happened this Sunday. They seem unrelated to work, but the moment you step into the office tomorrow, your workplace relationships will be put to the test.
💦 Event 1: Shau Kei Wan Water Outage – Will there be water by 6 AM tomorrow?
A sudden water outage hit Shau Kei Wan, affecting a massive number of residents. Water supplies might resume at 6 AM tomorrow at the earliest. No shower tonight, no guarantee of brushing teeth tomorrow—everyone is left in limbo.
- 💡 What You Can Do: Even if top management has no special arrangements, as a direct supervisor, you can take the initiative. Send a message tonight to check in on subordinates in the affected area: “Are you okay? How are things looking for tomorrow morning?…”
- ❤️ True trust is built on these exact details. When you go the extra mile to show care, their loyalty increases tenfold.
⚽ Event 2: World Cup Final Ends at 5 AM – Is someone bound to “call in sick” tomorrow?
Tonight’s World Cup final goes on until 5 AM. Who will be on time, who will be late, or who will “pull a sickie”? We all know the deal.
- 💡 What You Can Do: If you have open communication with your team, you will already know who might call in sick. Your subordinates would have coordinated with you in advance to take leave or swap shifts.
- ❤️ If a subordinate unexpectedly calls in sick without a heads-up, it shows your relationship is just average. But that’s okay. Don’t confront them immediately. Say nothing for now, let it slide, and gradually find opportunities to rebuild that connection later.
If you do these, don’t wonder why your subordinates dislike you:
❌ Settling Scores: Accepting the medical certificate but targeting them in future tasks.
❌ Emotional Blackmail: Making passive-aggressive remarks in front of others: “Oh, look who’s sick today. What perfect timing.”
❌ One-Size-Fits-All: Revoking all future flexibility for the entire team just because of one person.
