It occurred to me today that I should just fire everyone.
Now, this isn't quite the Big Deal that it seems, because out of my two full-time employees, one has already quit (an amicable and entirely proper split). The other one is a nice person who does a subset of what I do. She’s pretty good at it, but I’m not sure how I need to reconfigure things if I want to keep the company lean, nimble, and efficient.
Don’t get me wrong: firing one person sucks. I just didn’t want to imply that I was running some sort of massive operation here.
I’ve gotten a lot of advice from folks… including the person who’s leaving. It’s been suggested that yes, I clear the decks and hire a super-capable office person/personal assistant, and go all crazy on my own. It’s been suggested that I stick with employee number 3, and hire a part-time billing and collections person.
I have no idea what to do… and this is the worst time for me to think about it, because I’m exhausted.
Anybody out there want to work for a pro-choice, pro-gray, hetero catholic father of three? With hypomania?
Heh.
Love to all. Even you, Mr. “Change that to red.”

I hope your workers don't read your blog.
Good luck on deciding what to do. If you don't mind someone working from home I'd LOVE to help ya out. :D
