Bob: Historically, I have only had around twenty percent of hires that had a good work ethic. I hire the good ones and the bad ones and have a difficult time determining which ones will be able to work without very close supervision. So, I have learned one thing, I'm not very good at hiring. Document everything closely and do regular evaluations. Threaten to let the bad ones go and give them specifics in writing. The flip side of things is that I make sure that I pay the good ones accordingly.
I use to teach anger management classes. Anger is a choice that you are making. Up to you You don't doom these folks if you are straight with them and give them a chance. They determine their own fate, as you determine your own reaction to their actions. I'm going through lots of issues at my offices. I'm not always the best with dealing with my employees, but I at least deal with them as honestly as possible. None of it is fun, but it is what it is. Good Luck..
