Me?
“You want me to tell them?” [Ryouma]
“I just thought I’d make another dish for them. If I work now, I should make it in time to serve them another dessert before break ends. I need to do my best for everyone’s sake.” [Celma]
Celma-san said those words with the same smile she showed me when she was reminiscing of the old days.
So Celma-san’s the type to speak through her actions rather than her words.
“I understand. Please do your best, Celma-san.” [Ryouma]
As I said that, I left the kitchen, and went back to the breakroom. There, I told the others what Celma-san told me.
“So that’s how it was.” [Carm]
“So she wasn’t troubled or anything.” [Fina]
“That’s great~” [Maria]
It’s really good to hear that nothing was wrong. I also understand now just how good the relationship is between these employees of mine. That’s another plus.
After all, when the relationship in the workplace is bad, or even when the relationship isn’t bad, but just that the employees don’t care about each other… then small problems are bound to ensue. Those small problems would eventually lead to making quarrels amongst them more likely.
On top of that, such an environment would pile up stress on the employees, causing them to be more prone to mistakes and to be unhappy at their work. Moreover, they’ll be more likely to fall sick physical or mentally.
Above all, this world hasn’t progressed much in its machineries compared to my previous world. Which goes to mean that labor force is pretty much equal to manpower. And because environment and motivation are important factors in improving a worker’s efficiency, just raising the salary isn’t enough.
My store is doing great at handling its employees. I’d like to keep this up.
For that reason, I want Carm-san and the others who are in charge to do their best. Of course, I’ll be doing what I can as well. I pondered on the different welfare benefits I could provide, and the first thing that flashed through my mind were bonuses, salaries, and summer vacation? Is there something like that in this world? Hmm… Although it’s good to be enthusiastic, I’ll need to ensure that the things I come up with match with the common sense of this world.
