Understood, but an increase in pay would have hit a home run with him.
I loyal employee would create such a positive attitude towards your company.

Keep him happy then.......as long as he does a good job.

Offer him 20 bucks after 90 days of superior working

It costs so much money and aggravation training 10 people that quit within a month right

Hint he is franchise owner material so when you hang em up, you hang em up

You sound like a business owner and/ or very experienced at managing people. A toxic employee is so costly all around. A benevolent one is worth twice the pay they are getting

I'm lucky where my industry is straight commission. You have your ass naked to the North Wind and there is no excuses but looking in a mirror

How long will it last until, "I'm selling this GD place! Can't get any help! Calls me a racist!"

Isn't 3 bucks more an hour worth it than creating a thread every month of the typical headache you had to rid yourself of

Most new employes are.
Just wait,he'll end up sucking as an employee as much as you suck as a boss.

I am better as a boss than as a business owner lol

I just kind of suck at everything that all I can do is laugh at it

 

[Quasar44]

It won't be long now...

Actually...
It's better to offer him an "on time bonus".

If he shows up on time every day and shows up for every shift scheduled you give him an extra dollar per hour he worked. You pay it out every two weeks.

Maybe after a couple years you offer him profit sharing...so when the business profits so will he.

I just need him for 3.5 yrs then I quit

And it's a choice...
Increased profits for 3.5 years or less.

If he is willing to stick around for the next 3.5 years. Make him the offer of profit sharing.
