 When to fire your house painting employee? 

This is a great question. As a business owner there are so many things for you to do. With the economy the way it is, I feel employees are plentiful. It's finding the right ones with the right attitude that is a job in itself. The right attitude is everything! Whether the employee is skilled or not, with the right attitude that person can be trained. The right attitude is what I look for....

The real questions you have to ask yourself is....Is the employee insubordinate or incompetent? Can they take constructive criticism? Is the employee an asset or just another liability? 

The employee with the wrong attitude may act as if it is "story time" each and every time there is some discrepancy.  This employee is surely expendable. I give all employees, depending the level of infraction, 3 chances. After the first infraction the employee is on probation, the second warning results in a pay cut, and then finally termination.
