Loyalty?
What is it that keeps us loyal? Is it friendship, genuine like or concern, or the fault of our fucking parents for raising us to have a conscience?
Point in case is a dude who works for me. Brought him in 2 years ago when the last dude bailed after 11 years. I still hold a huge amount of nostalgia for those 11 years. Things weren't perfect, they never are and never will be, but I seem to recall getting alot(I know, I know, it's not a fucking word, so sue me) more help back then. Both have their pros and cons, the latest seeming to have a ton more cons, unbearable body odor and an attitude to boot.
Mistakes be a plenty, at least a few a day. I now know why his business failed but find myself wondering why I felt sorry enough for this sad sack to bring him in and let him help ruin mine. The last one overslept frequently, but bent over backwards to help me get through my day. Ahhh good times.
Could a 3rd one be on the horizon and at what point do I say "20 years of knowing you from this indusrtry be damned, I'm sorry you fucked up your own gig, but you're outta here as well?
Stay tuned the answers may be closer than we think!

Sounds like you gotta go and give him the boot, especially if he's a detriment to you biz and not a benefit.
Yeah that's the plan. Bleeding heart aside, I gotsta stay in bizness.
Good help is hard to find nowadays.
Try a Mexican. They have excellent work ethics and work dirt cheap because they can always go back to Mexico and preen about like they're rich.
