Well he isn't new by any means but he's new to our shop. He's got about sixteen years of seniority so he's worked where I've worked for quite a while too. Just in a much different section.
He's not really used to working much though. So I've kept him busy every minute of the day with some pretty physical stuff. And then we do our paper/computer work and everything we've worked on. He's never done that either.
We've got fifteen working days to evaluate him and see if we're going to keep him or not. Right now I lean towards not but I know the next person won't be much better but the next person has already worked in our shop so they wouldn't need the evaluation time.
What I'd like to have hired is a twenty year old that can learn quick, works hard, and is smart. Instead we've got the option of a nearly sixty year old, worn out, and close to retiring or another mid fifty year old that's further away from retiring and can do that job as long as the job is simple.
What's a guy to do?
