Ah, I am well acquainted with grooming salon drama. There is no easy answer, alas. At Petsmart, we all got along very well for the most part, but we had off-days thanks to one grown adult girl who frequently behaved like a ten year old child when life didn't go her way.
The groomer I assist now gets along very well with me because we kind of understand each other and work in companionable silence much of the day. XD But over at the other shop run by my manager, the bather and groomer do not get along very well, and it poisons the atmosphere--and I ought to mention that this is an extremely roomy shop, whereas my groomer and I work in a one-room facility.
When things get touchy between the staff, sometimes our manager takes us all out for dinner, or organises a BBQ. If things are really bad between two staff members in particular, she'll take them out for dinner and mediate a venting session. It clears the air, at least for a while.
*waves* And here I am, trying to sleep even later so you can catch more sleep (considering that it's my summer vacation anyway). Ahahaha... Welp, since I started RPing a few months back my sleep schedule's pretty much shot anyway.
Aww yeah, I love how the mods set it up (and how patient they were because I kept pestering them with questions like can i plz kill the beautiful tree monsters with fire please pretty please?). *w* I'm so looking forward to the next event. Maybe by then our muses will be killers.
