I posted this same post a few months back and someone had responded that it's just luck and to be patient and they can sometimes fall right in your lap. I had gotten pretty discouraged esp. since my husband had to get in between myself and the last guy as we gave him his last paycheck. We both thought I'd kill him (and he weighed a good 100 pounds more than me!)
After round 2 of ads and nearly a grand dropped on those, we stumbled across a guy that had had his own business, but went bust due to the economy. Had since worked for another landscaping company as a landscaper and mechanic, but didn't get called back at all this year (not even a "sorry, no work" which I think sucks). We also got another guy with no experience but a good work ethic. Man, does he catch on quick.
Both employees seem ideal!! Granted they have just been with us one week, but in that week they show tremendous promise. I'm not going in with blinders, but my point is...just about when you give up, it can happen. I hope it did for us. Just keep hanging in there and eventually you'll come across someone right for your business.
