[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 304612, member: 10234"] I don't know about the "scholar and a gentleman" remark. My management team might disagree. But I do enjoy talking with someone who has a real sense of what's going on and doesn't try to put a "spin" on the situation. If you are still in LP, I've got a question. Have you noticed, over the past several years, a marked decline in the quality of hourly employee we seem to be getting? Don't get me wrong. We still get some good ones. But, in general, the ratio of good to 'not-so-good' is definitely in favor of the latter. If so......what do you contribute it to?..........lack of a good work ethic, poor pay (p/ters), poor interview process or maybe all of the above. Do you see more dishonesty now than in the past? It, to me, appears that that is the case. But maybe I'm just more aware of it now than I used to be. In my opinion....the lack of decent pay for p/ters is definitely a drawback to attracting a good employee. Most would rather flip burgers than throw boxes for the same amount of pay. I'm still of the mind, though, that there is a large portion of kids today that even if you paid them $50/hr, would walk away because they don't think they should have to work that hard for their money. What would your answer be to the situation that we seem to be in reguarding quality people? Sorry....guess I had questions. [/QUOTE]
