Hey guys...
 
I guess there is no ecscaping salon drama in the real world... I am so stupid to think everyone is like me and genuinly cares about everyone... It is a unfortate thing that IT IS SO NOT LIKE THAT!!
I want you guys advice on something honestly just tell me what you think.. I WON'T BE OFFENDED BY NE MEANS.. LOL That is why I wanted to come get my fellow beauty friends imput..
Ok here is the deal.. I wanna make sure I react professionally and wanna know what you guys would do if your me..
 
Well my asst manager came to me this morning and states..
"Leslie...MORE THAN 2 PPL HAVE CAME TO ME About you and said they are offended by you... that YOU DON'T NEED TO GIVE THEIR CLIENTS ADVICE IF THEY ASK"
I was like huh?/ **Scratched my head** I actually only member maybe 2 incidents that I along with my co workers consulted with someone elses client.. BUT ONLY BECAUSE I WAS ASKED!!??
 
Plus I talked to both the girls that I had discussed with "THEIR CLIENTS" and both girls said "Nah Leslie not at all I was'nt offended.. " That is fine.. They asked and you told them.. "They said" Well one of the girls use to actually be one of my students from bout 4 yrs back when I was a cosmetology instructor.. I pulled her aside privately and asked her about it.. I wanted to make sure I WAS'NT MAKING HER FEEL LIKE A STUDENT AGAIN.. Ecspecially after the fact I have seen from working with her she has exceled quiet a bit and strived hard for prefection as a stylist and is actually A GREAT STYLIST NOW!!! Queit proud of her actually being she was a former student I had.... Ne how..
She was telling me when I asked her about it.. that"NO, Leslie.. I am actually really glad your here and working with me.. I like you alot... your kool to work with.. but I heard Rox say that when she wittnessed you doing that... That time she said "Hey Steph why are u letting Leslie take over ur client like that??"  Steph((Former student of mine)) tells me that my asst manager was implying to her I was trying to steal her client.. and steph said to me that she had told my asst manager.. that. She honestly did'nt really care I talked to her client.. that she did'nt take ne thing I said to her client that I AM TRYING TO STEAL HER CLIENT!!!
 
Maybe I am reading to far into to it...But another co worker I thought I might of offended I talked to her too and she said the same thing..
Which MEANS MY ASST SALON MANAGER LIED TO ME..
She made it out to me THAT EVERYONE HAS A ISSUE WITH ME... When it is REALLY HER ALL ALONG THAT HAS A ISSUE WITH ME!!!!
Then she had the gal to tell me
My district leader said to her ** Cause this is the 3rd salon I have been in ** That my district leader says "I am a LAST LEG EMPLOY"
What the hell does that supose to mean..
I have not ever once caused trouble ne where!!!
 
I think I have been distrubed to get back to the company I love so much to fine the kind of people they have choosen to run our salons that are'nt even upholding everything the company stands for .. So yea.. I have sort of been a snitch to tell my district leader real quick of concearns I have.. which I guess had made tension with prior managers... because THEY DID'NT LIKE THE FACT I UTITLZED OUR OPEN DOOR POLICY
 
So I don't know.. SHOULD I COMFRONT HER.. I just want know why she felt like she had to lie  to me to address something she had a issue with me her self..
 OR SHOULD I LET IT GO SHUT UP MIND MY BUSINESS AND WORRY ABOUT LESLIE????
 
I am just torn.. I hate being  LIED TO!!!! I plan on asking a few of my other co workers if I have offended them in that way.. that were not at work today when I see them again.. JUST FOR MY OWN PEACE OF MIND.. Cause if I have I NEED TO DO A SELF CHECK AND BE BETTER AWARE .. AND STAY FOCUSED ON MY OWN CLIENTS IN MY CHAIR..
I think it just comes from boardem of being slow and someone sitting there waiting ... on someone .. I JUST WANNA TALK... They (The clients ) start the asking advice questions..
 
Well I am open to sugguestions.. AND PROMISE.. LOL I CAN HANDLE THE TRUTH.. I want your honest opinions of what you think I should do as professionals...
 
~THANKS EVERYONE~
I luvs ya all in the beauty world!!!
~ Leslie~
