I see.
Besides, if the manager’s done that, they’d prefer to expose it to the mass media, worse, letting it out during the election. That’s the two ways it will go with the company1
I see.
The truly fearsome managers are those who don’t like to go expose themselves. Covert. That group is far more difficult
I see.
Now then, we’re done with the people who will work for the minimum wage. Let’s change to the exact opposite of that
Jii-chan changes the topic.
On the other hand, those who want a high wage. Wage higher than others. However, everyday work is hopelessly dull. It’s more of a waste of time. I think that there are jobs in this world that have no use and is just a waste of time. Imagine entering such profession
Oh, going to an office, yet you do nothing.
But, the pay is absurdly high.
Would you take that job?
I.
I don’t think so. Even if it pays a lot.
I don’t feel alive in that routine.
You might not take it, but most people would endure that Huh, really? Indeed. No matter how tedious the job can be, or should I say that even when you’re confined in that job, holidays will come. No matter how bored you are with the job, as long as you have money, it is worth during the non-work hours
i see.
Most people are like that. People with high salaries don’t work to their fullest. Salary isn’t proportional to the work contents
Jii-chan said.
I just acquired Shirasaka house’s TV station the other day, didn’t I?
Oh, right. Jii-chan took over the TV station from the Shirasaka house.
And after examination, the TV station seems to have allocated cars for their regular employees Allocated cars? Indeed. You see, TV stations have a lot of people who come into them, so there are taxis. And there is an employee whose job is to call taxis Huh? Can’t they just do that normally?
Like, the staff contacting them while the show’s running.
No, they have talents and managers too, they can make the call themselves.
However, for some reason, they have someone in charge for allocation of cars, and he’s receiving a high salary Why? I don’t know. If it’s a big company then I’ll understand it, but, it’s just a section that I don’t understand It’s a TV station, and yet, it would be boring to just call a taxi from morning until evening However, with a high salary and high social status, the employee won’t quit, even if their job is tedious
Haa.
Now, Kuromori-kun. You will become a manager soon. Have you thought of the salary of your employees yet?
Jii-chan grinned.
Would you have them work with salaries that allow them to have minimum necessities? Or would you use all of the earnings to pay your employees?
That’s.
Well, paying them the bare minimum would be out of the question. But that doesn’t mean that you’re giving them meaningless high pay
I see. High pay doesn’t mean that you’ll find a personnel who work hard.
The administrative division of Japan has more-or-less decided on the minimum wage. You’ll have to pay that much. That’s natural, but.
First, I must pay them the minimum wage, no matter what they do.
I need to think about the costs of the pastries and location too.
Paying those who work with their wages is a must.
Then, how will you establish your business and the pay for your employees?
I thought of paying the workers as much as possible with my profits.
Listen. Employees will apply if they see the sum of your salary. Naturally, they’ll apply if you give them high pay
That’s right, I have to hire people and continue recruiting.
As long as the bakery stands, there will be the application, hiring, and training.
However, the real problem would be the limits of how much you can pay
Yeah, if one doesn’t think of how to manage them and just give out high pay to the workers, then the store would crumble.
Then, would you pay within the limits of what you can? Is that good enough? Shouldn’t you hold down the salary as you need to deal with the stock and other parts of the shop? Shouldn’t you cut a share to invest it and expand your business?
Jii-chan continues.
Some employees working for you will show the difference in their craft. How will you distinguish between them when that happens? Would you raise their salary from their skill? Or would you raise the wages for those who stay longer? How will you deal with the newcomers?
Hiring people means a lot of work.
You must decide your objective. Then, that objective will not be influenced by your business, it determines the quality of those who want to apply for your business
Oh, it’s not just about making delicious bread.
I need to have excellent staff working for me.
I only talked about salary this time, but the reception, employee welfare, manual labor environment, and all the other things still exist
Yeah.
You must think about how to recruit, and how do you make them the personnel that you want them to be. You’re the one to decide the outcome of your business
It’s not a simple problem.
There are too many things to think about.
I need to think about a lot of things. Indeed. That is if you want to become a manager.
Jii-chan laughed.
Then, let’s go back to our first topic.
Huh?
If you want to become a manager, you must be tolerant with mistakes of others
Ah.
That part. Don’t worry about failures.
You’re not the employee. Most managers think, I could do that easily, why can’t you? to those who failed. That’s wrong
Yeah.
Manager and employees are two separate identities. They have a different status. Different responsibilities. They have different thoughts for the company. The manager is concerned with the company and himself. The profits and evaluation all go to himself and his achievements. However, employees may have some attachment to the company. Still, their scope is only until the person directly in charge of them. No matter what benefits they get, they alone will reflect on their next salary. People with individual achievements are rare Jii-chan said. A new successful product will mostly bring fame to the company name. Nobody knows who really made it. It’s only the Blue
LED
who crossed the company and gained individual recognition
Right, people know which company produces that one famous electrical appliance, but.
Nobody knows who made it.
Therefore, managers must never expect their employees to have the same enthusiasm as himself. Naturally, it’s wrong to expect the people to work hard for us from the start
You can’t tell people that, I’m working so hard.
You have a different standpoint.
As I said earlier, mistakes and troubles will always come. People will fail, no matter what. You can’t think that everything will go smoothly. That’s reality
Yeah.
Therefore, if you were to become a manager, you must understand that your employees will make a mistake, and it’s natural
I can’t get angry at every single thing.
Naturally, you’ll scold when you need to. Giving them warnings. However, if the other party couldn’t do anything about it, just forget when it’s done I see. Maybe, someone made a mistake because I was teaching them poorly Indeed. Especially newcomers, you must tolerate them. You must reflect on how exactly have you guided them Yeah However, if you think that it’s hopeless
Jii-chan said.
Dismiss them right away. Some people will never understand. It’s a waste of time to scold them
O-Oh.
Like Shirasaka Sousuke or Cesario Viola.
You will employ a lot of people, and so they will be able to slip in. If you thought that someone’s dangerous, then cut them off right away. You can pay them to let go too. Do it with a smile. It’s okay, they’re used to getting cut off. They’ll forget you and your company as long as you give them a bit of money
