My thought? Welcome to the business world. Wait until an employee starts a competing business.

Thanks. I agree that it is a good lesson. Prior to these experiences, I always thought that HR goes like this:

1. Interview 2. Make offer 3. Candidate accepts offer 4. Signs employment contract 5. Done

Now, it seems that nothing is certain.

Allow me to LOL. Employees are hard to manage, and will follow your lead. If you are unstructured and disorganized so will they. Start by being your own best employee and then have people follow your lead. Then train them to work just like you do. And then leave them the fuck alone.

The hiring process is very hard, and is usually the thing that ends up burning most businesses out.
