Snow.....

Snow, snow, everywhere. As always it causes more problems then it is worth. Looks purty and all, but the roads are a little bad. It is going to get worse with freezing rain tonight. Wife somehow managed to get to work in her piece of crap car. I would have taken her in the truck, but the kids were in bed and the babysitter couldn't make it off her hill. One employee couldn't make it in because of the snow, one employee is still out due to family health problems, my part time employee has been working far more then she wants too. It is only a matter of time before she gets fed up and quits. And one employee has given me her two weeks notice. That leaves two part time girls that are going to the BIG school here. They are the best, but need to work around schools classes.I need to hire someone really bad. But I am shocked that no matter how bad the world is, or how hard it is to find a job, that NO ONE seems to want to work. Now, I know I don't pay much, but the job isn't hard. People want to sit home and collect a check I guess. And things will be far worse in the coming years as people see they can sit home and get bigger checks and pop out more kids to get even more money...Sad damn world we live in.
Add to that the tax rates, and competition in the tri-state area, and the town I live in, business is BAD. I have made it 3 or 4 months longer then I though, but things are not getting better. I can only hope for cash to start falling from the ski at this point.
Later.
