Fire his A$$......sorry, but in a job like yours, there is no room for those kinds of errors. Nope, first time shame on you. Second time shame on me. No room for a third. Sucks, but do the math!!!!

when I was still in the business world, I found it easy to say bye bye if an employee cost me money more than once, just by not being careful about what they did.

let him go, but with tact....perhaps make it known that in a job like yours, that details are of the utmost importance...(obviously, not paying attention, would fit here)...something like that...maybe it will wake him up to that fact, if he wishes to pursue along the lines somewhere else

Not trying to be a contrarian, but if everybody got fired after making two mistakes, damn few of us would have jobs. Imagine the shoe on the other foot, and all that good stuff....

Sexy...

I'm not sure I would keep him either. How many chances are you going to give him?? How many times does he have to SCREW up before you stop giving him chances? Everytime it happens...it cost YOU...time and $$$$$...not him obviously. He just works for you.

I would say........ADIOS


Just my 2 cents worth....

Doing custom work like that, mistakes are to costly.
People not knowledgeable about the process & cost, don't understand.
Customer will be twice as picky & ***** about the extra time.
Employeer has to eat it all, there goes most if not all the profit.

In business you can only take .01 from a dollar of profit to payback mistakes & lost dollars. Do the math on what this carelessness cost.
