You may have missed the point. The discussion was about developing a skilled, well-motivated team. The whole "work hard, play harder" approach will only take you so far.
Yea...I took it as he was just looking for differnt avenues to hire painters....

I just think it's funny people give me crap about the club....I originally brought up...figured were guys we all enjoy it..ect..ect...

And now people have flipped it into some negative thing...weird

For me, I have to question the idea that taking the crew to a strip club is how to build a team.

It does help to reinforce the public's image of painters, so there is that.

I wouldn't say it's "team building" but it relaxes the boss/employee relationship...I'm sure other are differnt bur it is something I enjoy and so do they....

I'm more of a relaxed boss as I will listen to there problems and the listen to mine at times..it hurts me sometimes but I'm a real person...If they have an issue I'm here to hear it...not the here is your check now leave me alone kinda boss

It definitely has its advantages and disadvantages.

I'm a real person. I don't play by loop holes, technicalities or small print. Tell me what you really think or what's possible up front. If an employee has convictions ect...be real and tell me upfront.

:eek: from what you've posted on PT, your entire business model is based on loopholes and workarounds.
