TotallyOz Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Yesterday, I called my garderner to come and cut the grass. He has been MIA for a couple of weeks. He responded that gas was too expensiave to drive to my place and he would not be back. This was someone that was hired by the former resident of the home and we kept him on. Now, I am in need of a new garderner. Any help would be greatly apprecaited. Quote

TotallyOz Posted September 28, 2006 Author Posted September 28, 2006 ?? Offer the same guy more. Cheers ... Well, normally I would have. But, he gets a monthly fee paid by the management company. He got his money this month. He did not show for 3 weeks. Do I want to reward that? No, I didn't. It was not an issue of money for me. It was an issue of trust. If he had problems, he should have told me. When someone has the key to the gate of my home, I need to trust them. After his no show and many promises to show, that trust was broken. Quote

Guest jomtien Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Don't be silly. My aged, rusty, beat-up old weed-whacker is harmless. Quote
