So... I've recently opened a salon and have been searching for self employed staff for the last month. After numerous interviews & lots of people not even turning up I found someone!! So she was brill at her trade test, was happy with the way we worked things and seemed really keen! After I offered her the position I receive a text asking of she can have a couple of days off in dec for a family occasion she had planned. I was fair & explained that just this once I'd let her but this isn't usually the case in December as its a busy month. So she said thanks & said shed let me know the date (I'd also told her if it was Christmas week it'd be a no go). So today I get another text asking for the whole week off! The 2nd week of dec!!! What would you do? I've explained that the whole reason I was looking for someone else was to make sure we didn't turn anyone away at Christmas as I'm hoping this will gain us a good name and reputation in the area. I also was under the impression it was only for a couple of days not the whole week and I'd need her back for the end of the week. I've had no reply. What would you do? I think I might have to just find someone else as she clearly doesn't want to work & earn money. I get the impression she's from a well off family as she drives a love little Audi and hasn't been working since feb!!
