In construction .... we don't get the privilege of sleeping on the job ... we just have to do our ****ing jobs ...

The question I ask is if it was my bucks paying that dude ...would I pay him , sack him , or just give a warning ... ??

If some one , any one is that friggin bored , or lazy that they cant stay awake and do there job ....then they are gone !!!!
That is total bull chit IMO ...
If they want to sleep on the job , then they can go create there own dam job (self employed) so they can sleep any time they want ...

without saying to much other than "wake up", I brought in two estimators for an interview, talk about gettin buisy...the guy has put three jobs on my desk before i left friday... ive got a job evaluation sheet started with him and told him he must produce and show desire to keep position as sleepin at desk is a slap in the face...

That dude has a roll of toilet paper on his desk! He may have some bigger issues than sleep.

Glad to see he is now producing for you BamBam.

Sounds like you got a fire lit under his ***.

Talking about firing and what-not is all well and good, but re-training a new person and taking the risk on some untested hire is... well... risky. Guess you've got his attention for now!

If he took the initiative to apologize to the office and has stepped it up, he's probably a pretty competent and honest guy and probably the kind of person you want on your team. Not everyone (read: most people) has the gumption to own up when they've underperformed and commit to make good on it. Hope business turns up for ya bud!
