Thank you for your thoughts. I didn’t mean to disparage the younger crowd. I have a young family (but I’m old lol) and time with my young kids is paramount. I am also worried about working 60 hours a week day in and day out. I think for a short time it’s okay but eventually it will catch up with you. I think it also pushes the envelope on safety. Life is short and you have to find a good mix wherever ever that may be.

They already work 5 days 12 hours a week. My guess is some will like 11 more weeks off a year. Personally as a family, I would do it. But I also know with inflation, everyone is hurting financially right now
I would have to bump their pay. But they would probably have to take a 10 percent pay cut to make it viable. Due to competition and the economy, giving them raises and reducing hours is not viable. I already talked to a few workers who have families and they are interested it the fact they will work 11 less weeks a year
I’ll leave the other comments there. But if you do eventually fire this person, keep it simple. “sorry it’s just not a good fit for us.” Keep it short and don’t go into any details. Have a witness if possible and give them their final paycheck and have them sign for it. In my State if you fire them within 30 days they don’t get unemployment.
