[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing that has changed is 25 years ago a newly married man about to have kids with his wife’s was your best employee. They took their job very serious as now a wife, kids to support and a mortgage.

Today they are your worse. Between paternity leave, running out door day care, snow days schools, coaching teams. They are a horror show.

I have one working for me a 45 year old male with two young kids. I actually told him I wish I could hire your wife instead of you. He is a man child. I think he might grow up by 60

My guess is this has more to do with the type of job you are offering than gender. You probably offer "trailing spouse" jobs that don't pay well enough to be the sole or primary income for a family in your area or don't have much growth. As a result, you get employees (of both genders) who are responsible for snow days, daycare etc. and the other spouse hustles because they earn more or have more upward potential. If you offer "leading spouse" jobs, then you get people who are the best employees in your eyes.[/quote]

That’s not the issue. It is the lazy his guys with no hustle or drive. All the jobs I hire for pay well or will pay well.
