Train them, Ignore them, or Fire them
This week's episode is about dealing with challenges with employees. When should you ignore the problem, or instead fire them, or finally look to train them to be better employees. This may take a little while as they are still learning new skills and understanding how difficult these problems really can become. And if I ever need any help this show will definitely give it.
