[QUOTE="Jlingle, post: 4294755, member: 51137"] I’ve had to manage people at several different jobs. Unfortunately I’ve had to fire people through the years. I’ve fired friends and family, right along with everyone else. For me, it came down to this: if they couldn’t perform the work in an acceptable way, I had to respect all the other co-workers enough to get rid of the weak link. Do not cause work for all your coworkers. If someone is making life difficult for the other employees, it’s the job of management to fix it. If the person is family or a friend doesn’t matter, they’re making their own decision to perform poorly at their job & they can reap the consequences. I’ve said as much when I fired them. I would love for it to work out, but the way they’ve chosen to perform their job didn’t allow that to happen. Not once has it ever been a surprise to them. [/QUOTE]
