ok, so i manage the place i work in, and have been for a long time. the rules here on illegal substances are very strict. simply not allowed. I recently hired some new girls, and they are really cute and reliable, good help. however, i left a 1/2 hour early last night an let them close. when i came in this morning i found something that is not allowed at work in the sink. Im really ticked off because im always good to the people who work for me, but i dont allow that type of thing here. the girls are very aware of the policies here, and went ahead and did it anyway. i like these two, and dont want to fire them, but i know i need to do something. im very annoyed with this whole situation because im generally very easy to work for, however im not a pushover. i need to make it clear to them that im not impressed and will not stand for this type of behaviour.

any thoughts?

Do it WAY outside, like not even on the same block.......

And tell them: That's strike one, you only get two......
 
Your instincts are fine, make it clear to them that you're not impressed and won't not stand for that type of behaviour in the workplace.
 
yeah this is the one and only warning, and im gonna have to really crack down on this. it wasnt condoms, just something that i dont think should be in a business, regardless of what type of business it is. not only that, i dont think the clients appreciate it either. ha! they think im a pushover, well they have another thing coming. they havent seen me get mad before, but they are about to see me mad! i have even given them an extra shift so i can have a few hours off, but im gonna have to take that away from them. i cant even leave a half hour early! this is so annoying. what really gets me, is that the girls in this business, especially the young ones, dont consider this a real job. but when it boils down to it, im running a business and expect those who work for me to be responsible and somewhat professional when it comes to my business policies. sheesh. what does girl have to do to get decent help these days?
 
Give a warning. Let them know that it will not be permitted and you will fire their ass if they do it again.

They could just be testing you like little kids.

Hope things work out.

Spank them. Hard. Tell the customers when it's going to happen so we can watch.

yes i totally agree with you on that. thats why i dont allow it at all. god forbid we ever get busted, im in deeper shit if they find anything. if they find one joint in here, they dont specify the amount that was found or the illegal substance, just that there were illegal substances found on the premises. i hate being put in this position!
 
The problem is that you have only circumstantial evidence. You don't know for certain that it was both of them, nor who was the ringleader, nor even if they both know about it.

Nor do you know if they realize that they left evidence around. (prob not)

My advice would be to go out of your way to be nice to them for the next day or two. And then when you are all chummy tell them how great you think they are, and how disappointed you have been in other girls (from the past) who have betrayed your trust and friendship by breaking the rules/etc.

In this way you can first assess who looks the most guilty (ie the ringleader), so as to watch them more carefully. Secondly you have the best chance of steering them back onto the right path. Third, you plant concerns in their mind about whether you were in fact talking about them (ie How did she know...Are them cameras here...etc). Fourth, you maintain the best chance at maintaining a collegial friendly atmosphere (adult to adult) rather than a parent-child atmosphere.

Having said all of this, of course I don't fully know the details/etc. But this is how I would go.

thats true, but the two girls are friends and joke about said illegal substances all the time . i have been buddy buddy with them, and they always tell me that im the best boss that they have ever worked for. they know the policies, and in this case i believe that being direct with them will be the best way to go, so they are aware of the consequences (immediate termination) and will hopefully refrain from repeating the act again. under normal circumstances i would fire immediately, i dont care who is the ringleader or not, because i know that they both smoked it, doesnt matter who rolled it. the problem is, is that this is a busy time if year and i need the extra help. perhaps in the new year, ill let them both go when i hire other girls. they made the mistake of seeing kindess as weakness, which im definately not. in my little talk with them, i will make them aware of all the nice things i do for them and make them feel like they were in the wrong, which they are. god, i need a new line of work!
 
Very simple each and every emploee that was on the night in question will be required to take a drug test

A new policy of random durg testing is to be established, first.

A policy of 2 failed drug test will result in termination will be aqdheared to. All management will partake in this.
 
1) give them the warning IN WRITING, and have them sign a copy acknowledging that they have received the warning and what the policy is

2) install security camera's. If you do it right, you can monitor from a web connection anywhere you are. That way, you know what is going on without having to be in the shop 24/7

3) being buddy buddy is bad policy at work. Don't think for a moment that the girls might not cook up a story about you harrassing them, and each will back the other. Then you are seriously up the creek.
 
hi

yeah those are some good points, however, its easy enough to roll one up in the rooms, which of course i would never put surveilance cameras in, and smoke it in there as well. i dont know, maybe ill start hiring again
