Lousy day today. Had a lot of good days in a row lately and I knew a bad one was comin eventually. Fired the new kid that started with me on monday. He doesnt know how to work. Give him a rake and he plays with it. Tell him to carry rounds, and he fiddles with sucker twigs still attached to them. Hve him drag brush, he grabs 2 2" diameter branches and takes a slow cruise to the chipper. I was easy the 1st day, had several talks with him yesterday, begged and yelled today, and made the choice to let him go after the tools were unloaded. He just didnt get it. I had high hopes but he is just too far out in space and has no attention span. I dont want to see him hurt or dead and so my gut told me to end the situation before i regret it.
Otherwise, I raked soil and threw hay and seed all day. Big job on a lot that butts up to a lake and the ground is just pure mush. The skid steer really did a number on it yesterday.
