So in my center they have a suggestion box...They have slips you fill out and drop in. You have the option to be anonymous but I, being the fearless leader that I am, opted to put my name on it, as do most other people. I didnt know these were read by management on a weekly basis and was just coached on something I submitted.

I may have mentioned that one of the supervisors (and some other employees) should consider a pedicure before wearing open-toed shoes to work. Apparently this was inappropriate though I feel it was completely warranted...their feet were disgusting...Any ideas on a better way to approach this situation?

Never ever ever EVER put your name on a suggestion slip unless it says something like "I think you should all give yourselves a raise for all your hard work."

They never want honesty, it will only get you in trouble (as you have seen.)

The thing is i really dont care. They said they were open to all suggestions and would take all into consideration. I didnt think that meant that I would get in trouble for making a suggestion. Isnt that what the box is there for? It is a SUGGESTION BOX after all. If they dont want to hear what I have to say, perhaps they should but a little asterisk (*) after the words "Suggestions Box" and put a list of rules and regulations:

One suggestion per employee per week. Suggestions will be reviewed by upper management and any suggestion deamed unhelpful, malicious, or just plain stupid will be disposed of. Additionally, any employee who submitts any of the above mentioned suggestion types will be subject to disciplinary action up to and ...

Which makes me think you should wear a hooded cape and sneak in at night to submit your suggestions from now on... just to be contrary (The sad thing is, I would do just that to be odd.)

Why did you feel the overwhelming need to bring this post into yet another thread. Either I hadn't gotten to it (because I'm working) or I am ignoring it (I'm not but that's irrelevant.)

You don't need my validation of your opinions.

I think that's a legitimate request, that is disgusting, if you have nasty feet, wear tennis shoes. It may seem dumb, but personal hygeine should be taken into account in and out of work. Gross.
