[QUOTE="ARW, post: 566479, member: 1910"] Any body else having trouble finding good staff? Just had a lad leave us because he is sick of driving tractors apparently and needs to be at home on his 100 acre Farm and pet sheep. That won't pay the bills. Had a young lad come before harvest on full time basis, didn't even start because he changed his tune an decided he would only work 40 hours a week and wanted weekends off (because he gets tired), fair enough but that's no good, baling isn't a 9-5 job yet he wants to do Farm work. Had a lad on in spring, good hand, self employed, paid well. After a few months he is late everyday from 10 mins to over an hour. Bad job when you can't get up for £700 a week. Shortage of men round here, seems they would rather do f all than earn a wage, we don't expect them to work as hard as us or work for nothing. Is this common in other parts? [/QUOTE]
