The fight begins with you. Change your way of thinking. I feel no sympothy for the folks, sorry, as peech says.
I feel great about our staff and I know the feeling is mutual. We shut down July 31 for two weeks. I annually rent a house in Galveston beach TX with 5 bedrooms and lofts right on the water. I trailer my boat. We provide the house,boat,fishing etc.
The calendar went up in March and as usual it was full immediately. Every will join. My pastry chef was an illegal and has been with me for 19 yrs. Every one of the crew has a percentage of the business(including those who do pots) depending on how long they've been on board. Each member, no matter of ethnic, background who has a family/children ,has a forced deduction for 529 which I match.
You get out of people what you put in. It;s very simple. The vacation house is no big deal, I just feel that 50. buck is nothing any more(a movie and candy) 400. bucks would probably go towards bills. We're small and it's tough to keep up with the big boys, but we are a happy crew.
Just a few comments from the other side.
