Some here fear asking employees to do shit or to work an extra hour or so because they will think your an asshole, for the record you will always be the asshole in the eyes on an employee and their family, your always the bad guy, the conversations employees have with their friends and family will always be how they run the whole show and how without them you are nothing, the conversation will always include stories how stupid you are and how you run your business very bad and ALWAYS their family will tickle their balls and agree and cry with them.
Times like these are times to put your company on a dialysis machine and get rid of bad blood and get in respectful fresh blood, the amount of quality talent out there who will appreciate a well paid position or any position for that matter is at an all time high.
And last but not least every programmer, designer, manager photo guy is replaceable, some here would collapse if you would hear how your lovely employee portrays you to their family and friends.
In all my years in business every time I talk to someone who works for somebody all I hear is bitching and moaning about how they are not happy with their job and their boss is a asshole and stingy and has no clue how to run things.
Bottom line is your always gonna be an asshole to those who work for you even if you treat them well and pay well, after all no one wants to work for somebody and everyone feels they are not appreciated, so you might as well stop trying to be mister nice guy and put your business first.
This is my tip of the year :-)
