how do you guys with employees go about hiring your techs???
I'm going to try out hiring a friend of mines wife next weekend .
I've always thought a woman who can handle the work would be a great CC. |

After a while he thought he was the boss I got tired of doing all the work while he watched. didn't like being told what to. It was ok for the first while but started to go downhill. I gave him a choice one day either do the job or go home. He went home. I have friends that help me but for good reasons we never talk employment that way we have all stayed friends.

Friends as employees almost invariably end up NOT being friends.

I have been there many times especially in my small town. Lucked the last guy stayed for about 5 years and still helps part time when I need him. My son is on the other truck. Or should I say I am on the other truck.

Steaminpile Your right, women are not only hard workers we also are very bossy and like to do things our way. If I had my time over and knew then what I know now, I would of started my own carpet cleaning business. Good Luck and hopefully your wife will still have a friend in a few weeks. |

That's like cleaning carpets for your friends. They expect a cheap professional job. And so do their freinds...and so on, and so on, and so on... |

I'm positive about the negative...and negative about the positive.
