Sometimes you have to prune the tree

So I hired a guy a while back when I was hurting. Turned out to be the biggest mistake. Demanding, likes to issue ultimatums, frequently damages my equipment, always late, and just an overall pita. I even had a customer complaint about this guy, and I NEVER get customer complaints!

Thursday last week he mouthed off one time too many. I told him to take his crap and go. He left in a hissy fit. Of course, later that evening he called asking for his job back. I very politely declined.



My point to all this is, I feel like the weight of the world has been lifted off my shoulders. All of a sudden we are back to getting to jobs on time, the other employees who were beginning to emulate his bad habits have fallen back into line. I waited way too long to do this.

Just food for thought guys.
