for the first time in my life i am a supervisor and i have two people who dont like one another and make it a nightmare when they have to do anything that involves the other. its a small shop so its inevitable that they will be put on the same task.
the one is stubborn and lazy and the other is stubborn and extremely hard to work with.
any advice

Surviving the Workplace Bully.
Thanks for reading!
Honestly, being in a position of power makes the situation tricky. What steps have you already taken towards putting out the fires between the employees?
Do you know what the underlying issue is between them?
Are there no other people that can be used as buffers to avoid contact between the two employees?
It sounds like both are contributing to tension in the workplace. Though it may be awkward, you may have to stress the importance of ngood work ethic (whether it’s being a team player or not being lazy)
If your workplace can afford it, have you ever considered hiring new people? Maybe some new energy will help lighten the atmosphere.
