We havent done that before (gone for coffee to talk) and well, its gonna be interesting to see if she is willing to go.
It's not so much that its poor service because there are clients that love her to pieces. In fact, I had one in today that said we had the best staff in town. so, this is going to go over really well, ya know.
But the way she deals with some of the new clients is, like wow, did you just say what I thought you said????
I have to make a change and to be quite honest, I dont know if going for coffee is going to be the answer. I am truly at a point where I just dont want her here anymore. Its sad but if I am being honest, its how I truly feel.
I even did the old, how much severance am I going to have to pay her to dismiss her, in my mind. But then its, how can I dismiss her in a nice manner.*holds head* I am so confused....

Definit sitting down and talking with her is the best way to start. The thing is if she was a good employee before she can still be a good employee now. Find out what is bugging her without criticism of her or her job. Something in her life may have changed and that may have set things off. Making it difficult for her to deal witht he changes at work.
I friend of mine had a similar situation to yours. Company changing/ growing and a good longtime employee was not preforming like he used to. Basically, it ended up the guy just couldn't handle the new workload in that time of his life. So my friend, instead of firing him helped him look for another job more to his liking. No firing, no anger...all happy.
