we have a secretary at my work place. i cant stand her because she has a terrible attitude problem. i have tried being patient but she is just incorrigible! she is resentful, bitter, grumbles a lot and makes unreasonable complaints, works slowly and her social skills are zero. all other employees cant stand her. she does her work inappropriately. i wish i could fire her straight but i cant. i dont want to be seen as a mean boss who fired the secretary. i have tolerated her enough! how do i force her to resign? someone help me please!
You dont. Be a boss and do what is best for your company. You CAN just fire her assuming she is an employee at will.
To do it right, write her up for her attitude, poor or slow work, anything that bothers you. In the counselling detail clear and consise goals she must achieve and if she fails to respond, show her the door.

Hello lil:
You want to force her to quit, but you don't want to be seen as a mean boss.... Lady, ANYTHING you do to force her to quit is being MEAN.
As a matter of fact, you can fire her legally for NO reason whatsoever.... But, if you do things to FORCE her, you probably make yourself and your company vulnerable to a lawsuit.
Why can't you just be honest and straightforward?????? I would HATE to work for you.
Firing unqualified employees is a big part of "being the boss". If you are more concerned with people liking you than you are with running the business properly then you are the one who is not good at her job.
Just do what needs to be done. But do it properly and respectfully.
By worrying about what she will think of you for firing her you are most probably getting your other employees upset for keeping her.
Do yourself and your employees a favor and fire her.
Write her up and counsel her....
PAPER TRAIL!
It works...its legal...no concern for lawsuits, if done properly.
1 last thing, your the BOSS, no one likes you...
your constant kindness will be mistaken as weakness. Play it straight and do your job for the benefit of your business.
You perhaps should quit, since obviously you are not a good boss, A good boss watches out for thier people, all of them, they write up bad people, and fire the ones they have to.
If you can't fire people, you don't need to be a boss.
I actually hate my job because the bosses fire the good people or make work intolerable for them and praise the ones that don't work at all. Like this one girl goes outside and takes 10 minute smoke breaks EVERY 40 minutes and stands around doing nothing when she is on the floor.
Its stupid to risk losing good workers over bad workers.

Every job is like that...
I like it when the praise the lazy bums for doing their work and those who work and go the extra mile all they get is silence.
Yeah my son worked where I work and he ended up quiting cause the guy he worked with
in the dish room was harassing him and making him do all the work. The bosses would walk by and tell my son his productivity was zero when he was doing his work and the other guys work.
