MARY HAWORTH
Reader Wants To.Know How To Smarten Staff
DEAR MARY HAWORTH: ; Can you suggest a tactful way to tell a young girl in our office that, when on the job, we want | her to keep her finger nails filed to a neat length and her nail} pelish unchipped? ‘
She_is a _ quite satisfactory | worker with a nice appearance otherwise. I think she tries to| have long nails, as long and clawlike, with others broken-off raggedly; and the pink nail polish is half worn-o*f. |
Another problem is, how do/| yu tel a male employee that | we think feet propped up on a| desk don’t look well, even if be is on his lunch hour? |
As it happens, this is a smail | newspapér office and the boys | in the shop are welcome to} gather in the office on lunch hour, but I cringe when a cus-_ tomer comes in and sees tho<e
ployes simultaneously, which just might spark an insurrec- tion.
Now for suggestions: Cope with the unsightly fingernail problem first. Arrange off- hand private talk with girl preferably near the .close—of—a work day, largely to commerd her for being (as you say above)
some are (|“a quite satisfactory worker |
with a nice appearance.”
Give her. as much specific praise and encouragement as she merits, honestly. Then con- clude, in effect: “But there [S one thing, Moira, that you need to improve: The care of your nails. You must keep them neat, of even length, and the polish unchipped, if you wear polish. These details are very import- ant to one’s advancement in the business world.’ Etc. As a dis- arming gesture and point-pun

One feels they should know better without being told; and that to mention it, is akin tu telling the person that he has bad breath or BO. This ene of | embarrassement on my part
makes it doubly difficult to cb-|
ject without sounding _ stuffy. Your suggestions will be most welcome AL.
DEAR A.L.: You are the lady- boss, I take it, hence in the position of two strikes against you, per se, im the matter f trying to bring a careless staff
up to scratch on the score of ‘welcome to use the desk for that |
seemly manners, decent hand- care and the like.
But as your bill-of-particulars indicates, it is unwise to let in- sersitive blunders against gool form continue, for lack of ex-
