Ten minutes ago...I received a phone call, regarding one of my tilers down at the Cutty Sark, we only started yesterday and now I have just had to sack someone for gross misconduct. I cant say what he did at the moment, but hes gone. Now I have a problem, I need a tiler to work the night shift, midnight to 8am. What do you think the chances are of finding someone so late to this start date? Jesus Christ I need a drink.

Just another update, my sacking record this week has now risen to two men. However I want to say a big THANK YOU :hurray: to Rob (Nybor) for trying to help out. Also to Eduardo, who if you remember was looking for work. He came down onto site yesterday, and started today. I went down this morning and am very very happy with his work. He's a quiet kind of lad, gets his head down and gets on with it. On a brighter note the apprentice I took on, has proved a good un, this lad has been in quite a bit of 'trouble' shall we say, but the way I looked at it, was everyone needs a chance in life. Bit of an emotional exp today when I gave him his first wage envelope, and he got choked up, he's never had a proper job before with real wages. Made me think back about the first time I ever got paid, you forget about those things.

All in all not a bad day...roll on tomorrow.
