[QUOTE="baldelectrician, post: 220922, member: 188"] If you take them on as an 'apprentice' with all the stuff that goes along with that (working agreement etc) you lose control and have to jump through hoops to get rid of somoene If you take them on as a standard employee you can get rid of them easier if they turn out to be useless (upto a year, with exclusions for certian discrimination). People keep up pretenses for a while, but the crown slips eventually. It might take a day or two, but it might take 3-4 months to find out that someones dad gave them a lift to work every day and the boy can't get out of bed on his own. My advise is to try before you commit and take it from there- you will end up with a better employee and he will end up as a better tradesman with the extra electrical experience This also works better for him is he isn't the academic type [/QUOTE]
