Impaqt,


Who cares? I care. Many weeks I struggle to make sure that my employees get a paycheck. I pay them befor I pay myself. Maybe if you had to struggle to make payroll you would understand how sensitive an employer is about this kind of thing.

When a customer is trying to get a deal he is conspiring to steal from my company. I bring up the point again. Who does the customer thinks is paying for the parts that are being used on the side job?

I do see a slight difference if the employee makes the first offer to do the side job. I had a former customer call me once and complain about a side job done by an employee. Guess what. I fired the employee and told the customer that there was nothing that I would do about the job...he would have to contact the employee for warranty work.

I want to thank all the good employees who are loyal to their companies and turn down side jobs. A company is only as good as its employees.
