My biggest risk as an employer

[Sparky]

Is employees. Is it to much to ask that you show up on time? If your going to be late call me before 7:00 am start. Do I really want you if your going to text me "I need a personal day. I will hit it hard tomorrow". Material is going to cost what it is, but employees can make or break a project.

[Beefy]

Sounds like a bad Monday. I hope your week gets better!

There are plenty of good people out there looking for work.

Show the slow leaks the door.

[Marlin]

Yeah, I'd spend 20 minutes laying a guy out for the next day. Only to have him not show up.. Glad I don't have to put up with that anymore..

Although it would be nice to be working a little more than I have been recently...

[Mtn.man]

Yeah I know zactly. Can't beat em anymore.

Had 1 that called in 2 hours late because his dog was having puppies and freaked his wife out.

Seeing as how I just retired from the Army I am a stickler for showing up early.
With my new job I am unsupervised and it is all on me to show up to clock in on time.
I usually get to work 20 to 30 minutes early!
For me this is nothing new.
I never want to be rushed unless it is an actual emergency.
Im always thinking ahead for the next day and what may come up.


so if you want my resume.................

[SideShow Bob]

Hurry up, then wait. The only way to be.

I'd be surprised if you couldn't replace an employee in five minutes flat. No reason to keep employees you can't rely on when ten people are ready to take their place.

Do I really want you if your going to text me "I need a personal day. I will hit it hard tomorrow".

You are a hell of a nice guy for keeping that person around. That would be the end of any employment with most all of the people I know, in fact my boss and quite a few others I can think of would reply something like "You can hit the new job hunt as hard as you want tomorrow, because you aint working for me anymore"

The way things are right now, it's an employers market. Get rid of them and find yourself some quality help man. Just my $.02.
