I work in a department of 10 women, my boss has always favored a girl named Becca. Becca decided she needed to move 5 hours away to help with her family, so we hired another girl to take Becca's place.
The new employee was given Becca's old position, cubicle, phone number, etc.
4 months later Becca decided she wanted to come back, so my boss created a new position just for her, gave her a pay increase to help with her family problems, and gave her back her old cubicle.
The new girl was asked to move from the cubicle and was given a small desk to use in the hallway until "we could move to a new building." She stayed at the small desk for 9 months before we moved buildings.
The women (including me) in the department felt this was wrong, but they didn't say anything to our boss.
What do you think?

Yes, he was unfair. Whether bad enough to be worth suing him, I wouldn't attempt to say. If I had been the new girl, I would have been looking for a better place to work. But she stayed for 9 months, so maybe now she's satisfied with what she has.

Your boss was EXTREMELY unprofessional. He was doing Becca a favor by taking her back, so therefore, she should have been the one in the hallway. Is your boss and Becca having an affair or something? Is she pulling a Monica and he's Bill? The new girl was there beyond the standard 90 day probation period that most companies abide by. She has every right to say something. The only thing that they would be allowed to get rid of her for is if she wasn't doing her job. Becca should never have accepted getting back her cubicle, etc... Very, very poor professionalism on both the boss and Becca. You are completely justified in feeling the way you do.

Becca must have a little something something going on with the boss...i mean who does that just for no reason..He has something to do with Becca and sadly there's really nothing you can do do to the fact that he's the boss..unless you get a new one

Yes it was disrespectful to the new girl. Clearly Becca means something to him, a raise? But the new girl must need the job because she took it. The other employees could say something, but it really is none of your business.....

That doesn't sound fair, if your boss felt the new girl wasn't needed anymore since Becca was back she should have just let her go so she could go on to find a job where she would have been more appreciated.

that's amazingly incorrect. Your boss sounds like he has a element for Becca. He could have enable the recent woman save her cubicle and given the table interior the hall to Becca while she got here lower back. There don't have been a sparkling place made in simple terms for her and an enhance in pay cost in simple terms for relatives issues simply by fact all of us have them. i think of there could desire to be something going o between them 2 and he or she is milking it for all she gets. i might communicate over with the recent woman and tell her the way you experience and enable her realize it truly is not her or he paintings ethics, in simple terms your boss is an @sshole. that's letting anybody interior the dep. understand that no be counted what Becca does, Becca is going to get her way. quicker or later it is going to electrify all the remainder of you females. in case you pick to confront your boss, take some different females with you and clarify to him which you adult adult males experience he mistreated the recent woman. yet you recognize what... it truly is not going to do a rattling element while it is composed of Becca. he will forget approximately approximately you all or maybe could reason you heartache and at last make you go away the activity. ok, i assume, chew your tongue while it is composed of the boss, yet tell the recent woman it has no longer something to do together with her for my section. that's in simple terms the way his is with Becca.
