Two elves down

[Old Coastie]

We all know about the pause in business after New Year. This past week I bade farewell to two elves, who found steady jobs near their homes. I'm glad for them; but sorry they needed to find better money than I could provide.

Good youngsters and I wrote sparkling letters for them.

Ugh


My condolences

Well, you can't begrudge someone the chance to better themselves.

Its always a tough loss but as you said and understandable one. In this business you have to constantly be looking for next guy even when you have a full staff.

I need me a few chimps... not to confused with the gimps I've dealt with... lol

I hate losing people except ex gf's, take them nut jobs...

Here's hoping things get busier after the inauguration.

 

[Old Coastie]

Yep. Well, I'll only rehire if the work volume outstrips two men's ability. Meanwhile, I'll stop taking certain forms of work (like whole house cleanings) which require a crew. It is a great opportunity to refocus the business.

Don't blame you there.

You're way too bald to wear an apron anymore.

Starting to blame the new guy already?

If it doesn't get busier it just could be because of winter???

You aren't. And dahlink, you look SMASHING in an apron!
