I recently received a final warning letter at work, but I disagree with most of the points in it. Should I push back and try to clear things up, or would that make things worse?
So, you’ve just opened that email—or maybe it was a crisp, ominous letter left on your desk—and it’s not good news.
It’s a final warning letter.
Your heart sinks, your stomach does a little flip, and you think, “What on earth?
This isn’t fair!”
Now, you’re faced with a dilemma:
Do you quietly accept it and try to stay under the radar, or do you gear up for a showdown and defend yourself?
Let’s dive into this career crossroads and figure out if, when, and how to fight back.
