 Some workplace problems have clear solutions, while others leave you wondering, Is this really happening? Imagine working for a small, family-owned business where the boss makes wildly inappropriate comments and hovers over female employees—while his wife, who runs HR, conveniently looks the other way. Do you speak up? Walk away? Just try to survive the workday? In this episode of Workplace Weirdness, host Maya Kadar Kovalsky teams up with executive coach and HR expert Peter Vincent to unravel office chaos—from toxic family businesses and resignations gone wrong to holiday disasters that will make you cringe.

[00:35:46] Workplace Weirdness: The holiday party disaster [00:40:33] Closing thoughts Notable Quotes [00:02:24] "The biggest change in HR? The idea that you would hire and work with employees you’ve never met in person. A decade ago, that was unthinkable. Now, it’s the norm." — Peter [00:05:02] "I accidentally sent an email about laying someone off to that person. I heard a groan from two offices down. That was a career moment I’ll never forget." —Peter [00:20:40] "The reason I suggest trying at least internally through HR or whoever to bring it to his attention is I've often seen where when I've gone to a boss and said, 'Hey, one of your employees complained,' the reaction you often get is, 'Why didn't they ever talk to me about it?'" — Peter [00:28:26] "You can be friendly with coworkers, but that doesn’t always mean they’re your friends. A true friend wouldn’t leave you in the lurch on an important project" — Peter [00:30:50] " Kids will be kids, but depending on the age of this little one, could they possibly write an apology letter? Or if not an apology letter, maybe record a little video, a video message that Uh, I'm very sorry. I broke your ornaments to send to the boss." — Maya Resources and Links Peter Vincent Website LinkedIn Maya Kadar Kovalsky Website LinkedIn Workplace Weirdness Email: info@workplace-weirdness.com SpeakPipe Website Instagram Mentioned Georgetown Leadership Coaching Program Wall Street Journal Article on Netflix's Parental Leave Policy Starbucks Parental Leave Policy Disclaimer: The content of this podcast is intended for entertainment purposes only and should not be construed as professional, legal, or workplace-specific advice.
