Why do my bosses pair me up with the worst partners?
Asked by gripper2
At my job we usually have a 3 man crew. A crane operator, a lead rigger and another rigger. There are about 18 cranes there and they are always changing out my partners. If they turn out to be a good worker they send him of to another crane, if they are bad they stay with me for a while. If for some reason they get moved, they replace him with the worst of our other riggers. I have the biggest and most powerful crane there and it is no place for someone that is no good. Why do you think they do this to me? Is it a compliment or what?

Best Answer:
In my opinion, they would never give someone who doesn't really know their job to someone who wouldn't care about making sure they do. Obviously they think highly about you as trainer. Yes, I would take it as a compliment. Too bad they don't give you extra money for weeding out the good from the bad. Keep doing a great job!
