    health and dental insurance

    Yes it is…because everyone is covered regardless. We have one employee who had throat cancer in his teens and could not get individual coverage for “cancer” because they considered it pre existing…so he is very thankful to be part of the group.

    New Manager

    Well to answer your question first…The most controllable costs are food and labor. So you want to make the incentives (bonus) based on those. That way there is a direct to her behavior she can control. I would include that all her regular duties must also be met. We do a labor bonus and if they...

    Hands beat up from making pizzas everyday?

    Yikes…if they are that bad that you are sitting and someone says something you need to go to the doc. As a customer I would not want to see an employee with hands like that. :!: :!:

    Am I getting a bad deal?

    You sure it wasn’t a mis pick? Regardless of the price difference they cost more than money in the long run…total pain in the rear to remake an order and deal with the complaint for a smashed pizza. Your supplier has got to have b flute a pretty standard box for the industry! Kris

    Hands beat up from making pizzas everyday?

    yup go to a doc…there are so many things which can irritate our skin. When something begins to affect our life for an extended period of time…it is time to get help. That is what they do…deal with skin problems. Just as if someone was to ask you about pizza it is your expertise not figuring out...

    Manager Motivation

    One of the hardest things about our business is consistantly being consistant. I would have a meeting and document what the issues are and what the resolutions are.

    telephone lines

    Our phones are the lifeline of our business. While I do look for less expensive options they would never include internet based phone lines. Too many issues.

    Staff parents.

    While I agree it was not reasonable for her parent to ask to steal her and expect a yes at the last minute…I am a bit surprised at the responses. I have always told my employees if something comes up, because they do for all of us, instead of calling in sick let me know what is going on and if...

    Dealing w/ an impossible landlord

    Quickly you need to get an emergency fund in place. Minimally, a month’s rent. I would do whatever it takes to get it saved even if it requires more time (and trust me I know you don’t have a lot of extra but it is TEMPORARY) and or helping get it in place with personal funds. You cannot be late...

    Dealing w/ an impossible landlord

    Keep good records and invest in an attorney. Your lease should clearly state what is your problem and what is not. An attorney can help you. Don’t wait until your problems get too big…in the meantime save save save so if you need to move you can.
