  • Answer:

    Do not hire friends or family. They will be the first to take advantage of your position. The truth is, work is not a playground. You need to make sure the work gets done and done right, that's your job. If you have people crying about how hard it is to do some dishes or fold pizza boxes, then tell them that this job might not be for them. That will open their eyes and let them see that your tired of hearing it. If you do not get control, then the owner will get someone that will. So its your job or theirs.

No matter what you do people are going to complain. It's great you are doing things to make it enjoyable, whiners will still whine though. I would suggest attaching rewards to performance goals. This way you can do fun things IF the crew meets their expectations.

Maybe offer an incentive like who ever works the hardest gets first choice of time off. Or maybe an employee of the week and whom ever gets the most at the end of a few months gets a prise. Really they're being babies and you sound like a very responsible young man.....you'll go far in life. Good luck.

Small perks. Honestly, feed them. Free food is a big thing. And, not just pizza from the restaurant. Even my 30 and 40-year old employees get excited over free food. LOL!
