Yup.. its true what the say.. never hire family.
Slated to start work today on a big contract was my sister. I waited 2 weeks longer than was comfortable but she said she needed the job and would work hard...
I listened to my family and not my gut and hired her. Today is her first day and she is off somewhere with her husband, who I have been told is also working the job. They'll be ready at 8PM... to learn the 8 hour job... I thanked them for their interest like it was a form letter and am heading in for a very long day of work and anger. Now the family considers me a monster...
Things I resolved when I opened my business
1/ Only hire the best.
2/ Oversee everything since its my reputation
3/ Never lose control of the reigns
Since I was in violation of 1 and 3 I believe I did the right thing. And if she had needed the money that bad.. she would have been available on the day that SHE chose to start...
