| Jun 6, 2019 at 9:19 | comment | added | Paul D. Waite | How have you tried to improve his performance? All I can see in your question is “I've tried to appeal to him that we're part of a team... I've tried to work with him and I've given him warnings”, alongside a long list of mistakes he's made. Have you talked to him non-judgmentally and non-resentfully about his mistakes and their impact on you? It seems like your manager wants to you help this guy improve his performance. Maybe your manager has asked a question on here about how they can get you to try to improve this guy's performance. | |

| Jun 5, 2019 at 20:01 | comment | added | Myles | When she has brought up "improving" him, have you pitched a performance improvement plan to formalize that? I'm just wondering if she is suggesting this to you and you aren't reading between the lines. | |
| Jun 5, 2019 at 19:56 | comment | added | Upper_Case | Since you've been accepting responsibility for the problems so far, why would you expect your boss to be OK with you firing someone who, as far as she's aware, is not a problem? Do you need to persuade your boss without conveying any information about your assistant manager's actual performance? | |

| Jun 5, 2019 at 19:21 | comment | added | Chris | @sf02 I don't have a replacement because replacements are trained over the course of a month. It's also typically done at the restaurant that they'll work at. I can't begin training a new employee while the current employee is working there. He will know he's the replacement. | |
| Jun 5, 2019 at 19:16 | comment | added | Chris | @dwizum My district manager hasn't directly said "you can't fire him", but if I bring it up she changes the subject to improving him, which I've already tried numerous times. She played a part in hiring him so I think she just wants to save face regarding hiring him. | |

| Jun 5, 2019 at 19:10 | comment | added | dwizum | you're stating that you're blocked from firing the person, but you're also asking how you can convince your boss to let you fire them. Can you explain what the block is? Why do you think you're being blocked? If someone is telling you that you can't fire him, are they giving reasons? Or explaining what the criteria for firing are? | |
