I fired many in my 20+ years of self employment and management.
Never once had an issue.
If no union and you give them their pay, that's all she wrote.
Let them cry to who ever they want.
Never let staff document more than  you.

The question was "What do you guys do"
nothing more or less, not "what should I do?"
some answered the question and some did not.
The answers DID however assist me in how I am going to deal with this specific case.

Seems like my hardest working people are the same ones that offer to pay for damages themselves. Those are the same people I am willing to pay way above market for their wages, as it turns out.

Well ken how did you deal with them over the last 20 years?
Like i said this is something that would showup on the red board where evevyone resides in LA LA Land.
From what i read most of the people on this board respect their employees as they are the backbone of their business. In your case. Well you answered that yourself?
Just My opinion

We outlawed slavery in the 1860s, regardless of race, age, gender or religious beliefs.  Between the efforts of the AFL/CIO and the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) putting pressure on legislators the working stiff has a fighting chance and the courts almost always rule in favor of the little guy.

Businesses need laws to serve as guidelines.  Otherwise what you have is the wild west.  Just as law and order go hand in hand do does lawless and disorder.

This message has been brought to you by America.
Are you in a high paying business or are you just a self employed low paid grunt who thinks this business provides dignity?
