he's been stayin in our new caravan since september an gettin meals with us in the house.jist worked out the extra electric for the caravan over the winter it's more than his insurance.there's a bit of a lack of decent labour up here tho.But we've already spent a fair bit on training including his tailer test.The joys of being an employer i suppose!

i have been in business for 10 years now, the first lad i started, was a nightmare. the first week, i had to pay over 400quid tax contributions because of the time of year he started and some mix up with his last employer, he agreed on the wage and moaned every day he was out, every monday morning it would be another excuse why he was late or knackered, but was all because he was out getting drunk all weekend, i took on 3 gardening jobs for him on satuardays so he could get extra money, guess what, he never turned up one day, wouldnt answer any calls, he had got a new job and didnt bother telling me and i was stuck doing 3 old grannies gardens for a summer. i have employed loads of guys and most throw it back in your face, the nicer you are the more the wrong kind of guy will take advantage. get a contract drawn up and use it as the rule book, it makes it simple. i would bag him now save you the grief in the future.
Have had a couple of them too.We have a contract but i think it might need a bit of altering.Especially the training bit.
