passing the buck

at my extern site there was a lot of dumping of jobs. people working there just didnt want to do work. everyone would put stuff off until the manger or chef would tell them to do it. even when that happen they would tell someone else to do it. i would be setting up the main expo with ice and all the garnishes that the final plates needed and a manger would come up to me and tell me to go work on another job. so doing as i was told i would go work on that job and as i was working on it the same manger would come up to me and start yelling at me that the expo was not set up completely. i would respond you told me to stop doing that and work on this. by then they realized that they were the one who told me to stop so they would not say a word turn around and walk away. there were two more examples of this. one of them was when the manger went up to someone on the line and asked them to prep and the person said no to the manger so they turned around and came to me and told me to go and prep while i was prepping for my station on the line to go and do this so i had drop everything and go prep. the other example was the chef asked the manger to go take inventory of the walk in. so that manger came to me and told me to take inventory of the walk in so i did. i saw the chef go up to the manger and ask them to go inventory the walk in, but i did not say a word. it just showed me how lazy people really are
