How to guide beginners? Should one teach them?

It’s fine to call colleagues by their names; they keep calling me ‘eh, eh’ every day – there’s not even the slightest bit of courtesy. The company is currently in the trial production phase. A few days ago I told him to stop using his phone in the tank area (where tanks storing propylene oxide, benzene, etc. are located); I asked him to read the instructions in the office instead of using his phone while looking at those instructions. Yesterday I spoke to my supervisor about the fact that we’re not teaching him properly. I’m really drunk. Note: The company is a joint-stock enterprise; in reality, it’s just an individual-owned business
Even if you teach him, he won’t learn properly; what’s important is to practice in order to learn
One should first teach him how to be a person and how to be a competent employee.
Those who don’t know how to show respect for others – it’s better not to teach them
Report it to the manager and ask him to go back from where he came. There’s nothing to teach about this kind of thing. At least they can’t behave like human beings. Let him go home to his parents and learn to be a decent person first. It turns out there’s something similar here below as well.
Yes, teach one to be a decent person first. If we don’t have this ability, then we won’t do things that could mislead others; we can just give it to someone else. It seems we’re not meant to be together:lo First of all, such people lack good manners; it’s better to let others adapt to them.
It’s indeed difficult to work with a newcomer these days; it’s a real challenge. Everyone around us these days was born in the 1990s – they belong to the first generation raised under such conditions. They grew up as little rulers at home, the center of attention in their families. Although they are now of adult age and have entered society, their mental and behavioral maturity remains at a childlike level, making communication with them really tough. When we first started working, we were always the first to arrive at the office, washing tea cups, fetching water, and doing cleaning; nowadays, young people just show up at the office at the scheduled time. Work, after all, relies on actions and words; there are few who take the initiative. When young people enter the workplace, they should first adapt, and only then make changes; in reality, it’s the opposite. Leading people is also an art; one must never expect them to meet the standards based on one’s own past experience, otherwise it will lead to disaster! It’s sad and harmful to one’s health!
Young people don’t know how to behave; they’ve just entered society, haha
What kind of business relationship do you have with this young man? If it’s a very serious master-apprentice relationship, then you’ll have to put in some effort. If there’s no direct connection, ignore him and let him face the realities of society on his own. Such people need significant setbacks to realize the need for improvement.
Newcomers are like this: they think there’s nothing to learn. By the time you try to teach them, they seem to know everything and understand everything, but when it comes to actually doing something, they’re at a loss. I once had a new employee born in the 1990s; he worked with me for 4 days before quitting. On the first day, when I showed him how to work on the cabinets, he said he had done this before and could do it by looking at the drawings. It won’t happen when pressing the wire nose while working; the cold pressing pliers hold it tightly and won’t let it open. If the hole in the wire nose chosen is too large, the wire will come out as soon as it’s pressed ； On the third day, I went out to conduct on-site measurements all day; on the fourth day, I said I was too tired, as I had to start working at 9:30 in the morning. Since I didn’t agree to that, I quit right away.
