Bleh!

Well, I’ve pretty much sucked at blogging lately.  Things seemed to be on the upswing.  I have finally hired my last employee, making a full staff.  She did the mandatory orientation today.  And the other employee I hired only one month ago was out sick today.  And it seems she’ll be out for a few days (she didn’t know how long exactly) because she is going to be taking her husband to a hospital in Houston.  I don’t like to pry into people’s lives, and don’t particularly care what a person’s reason for being sick is (blame it on hearing too much about explosive diarrhea and other awful illnesses via voicemail).  However, I try my best to be flexible, considering employees have to go through a 6 month probation period before they can take vacation.  In the past year I’ve offered two different positions to people, only to have them back out right at the last minute.  It is so freaking frustrating.

I just hope I don’t lose this one.  I really don’t enjoy re-doing the hiring process.  And especially not for the same position.
