[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I run a biz, and we work retainer/hourly work, and I've really struggled with this. I have staff who will work freelance doing work that competes with our work. We have non-competes signed at hire, but it also feels shitty to go after a 27 year old "hustling."

The most wild story was one staffer who was working 2 other full time jobs, and we realized she was barely clocking in any client time, so we offered to reduce her role to better fit her schedule. She eventually asked for a sabbatical after 6 months (among other wild things), and I let her go. She wasn't particularly broken up about it, and offered to freelance for us while I was firing her.

It's wild out here for a boss! I'm really struggling with how transactional my relationships should be with employees, and it seems very age-based. I'm GenX and I don't think they all need to be "please sir, may I have another (hour, project, etc)" of overtime, but the balance is a whole thing. [/quote]

I run a small business and ended up farming work out overseas because of the messed up US worker mentality.  So entitled and scammy. We work with a US based employment agency that offers childcare and training to the mostly female workforce. I went there and toured the facility so I feel pretty good about that. I wish they had that set up on rural America. [/quote]

We use India and they all work multiple jobs playing time zone and quit a lot. Pay them a few bucks more on to next company, we got payroll, IT, IT Audit, call  centers. They come and go. They are great with mindless work.

Bottom line my good staff who work remote absolute cheapest I can get in US $85k in US remote. Really good ones 150k to 190k remote. People nickel and dime remote workers so they take more jobs.

Paying me a living wage of 200k plus. Give me a 6 percent 401k match, give me great medical, give me a 50k bonus. Most remote people need two jobs to get a living raise [/quote]
