Should i tell her?
I work with these two girls. Laura and michelle. Laura has been working there for 5 years & works full time. michelle has been there for 2 months & work part time. A month ago laura asked if she can get promotoed to shift supervisor & the store manager said you would have to drop the full time and go to part time. So she said no way. The store manager Then asked michelle if she would like to be Shift supervisor & she took the promotion.
Laura went to another manager and asked why she would have to go to part time and the manager said thats not true.
I was talking to michelle and asked why didnt Laura get the promotion since she has been here longer & she told me that the store manager said shes to slow and doesnt get the job done on time and doesnt believe she has what it takes to be a shift supervisor.
I'm the only one that knows why laura didnt get the promotion. And i feel really guilty because im keeping it from her. Question is should i tell her or just keep it from her?
thank you.

Why hurt her feelings? I wouldn't say anything.
The ones who didn't promote her should be the ones feeling guilty.
If I were her I would also go over their heads and ask why someone who has been there as long as she as passed over for the job. If she can't do that then they may be right. Can't be meek and be a supervisor. :)

Ok I see your problem, but here is what I see Michelle told you this not the manager who offered her the job. So its heresay, in other words it might not be 100% true. Also there may be some "history" between the manager and Laura they could have had a disagreement years ago the manager could simply not like her for some reason and could have lied to Michelle about the reasoning.
I think that if it were true about Laura being slow and not getting the job done the other manager would have noticed it and also she would probably not have lasted 5 years in the same job. By telling Laura you would probably not only hurt her but could create a huge issue at work with you at the center starting it.
I think what you should do is encourage Laura to find out why herself, tell her she should talk to the manager who told her to go part time and see what he says. That way you are not breaking a confidence or starting a problem.
Hope this helps.

Well, if she is really bugging about it, then, yes, do tell, don't lie. But, if she just thinks that she had to go part time & SHE refused it & it seems like it's water under the bridge, then I would just leave well enough alone. No point in hurting her any further by telling her she wasn't good enough for the job. Good Luck to ya!

Well, if your knowledge of the situation is really eating you up inside then you should tell her. Although, considering what you know I'd personally wouldn't tell her. Sometimes things are better left unsaid you know? By keeping it a secrent, you might save some hurt feelings but, ultimitly it's up to you.
