![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I really thought I was getting someone who would watch my back while I watched his. I was proven very wrong today. I support my family(wife and kids)with that shop. Not even blood kin will ever be allowed to endanger that. |

Im still pissed simple. Asked him after work what the deal was and if he wanted to be there. His reply was him walking away.
Kinda screwed myself on this one. He got hurt working on heavy machinery. Noboby that could see his medical record would hire him. We needed help and he needed a job. If I fire him I cut my nieces and nephews monthly income by half and I'm the azzhole uncle. He is a great mechanic and I won't ever try to deny that. It also comes with an extreme amount of arrogance. One should never forget who signs their checks |

Start interviewing mechanics. You don't have to fire him but when he sees he can be replaced the attitude will reduce.
Or if the budget allows hire a young one that has little or no experience that you can pay a lower wage until he gets the experience. If you end up losing the brother maybe the new guy will have the experience to step up. I've had the same situations usually they think they can't be replaced. |

cant you put him on straight commission basis only.
pay based on the billable hours only and deductions for warranty work basicly turn him into a subcontractor doing extra work for you so interactions are very limited between you its tough man, god bless and I hope the good lord helps keep your blood pressure down because the only way out is to tell him to get out ![]() |

Sorry for the random post.
Wife and me spent about an hour talking to Southern last night. Just getting insight and thoughts from another business owner. Just wanted someone elses take on the situation. Im not and will never be so good that im always right and don't overeact. When I'm pissed I really make bad decisions. Corey just let me vent and gave me some options to look at and think about. |

How long has he worked for you? It will probably get worse the longer it goes unresolved.

You need to work it out with your brother. Blood is thicker than water. That's why you threw him the bone in the first place. As men we don't communicate as well as we should in these matters. Too often a big blow up or fist fight is the result from a situation that could have been resolved by some simple sober conversation. I'm speaking from regretful experiences here bud. If your bro needs a gig and you have the means to employ him, do it. Just tell him whats bothering you. Once you level with him, he'll probably respect your position more and the problem will be solved

Unless he is on painkillers and is a total *****.
For me, blood is only thicker than eater if your blood isn't taking full advantage of you and treating you like sh**. Special treatment and entitlement don't come from me just because you nursed on the same teet as me. But then again, maybe I'm the d*** |
