Wanted to bring up another change that we made. When we bought our first center the vacation and sick pay policy was similiar to a larger corporation's policy. Two weeks paid vacation annually, 10 holidays paid off, and five sick days paid. This all rolled over each year and we had some long term employees with 1000's of hours saved up.

We had to make a change as this was, in our view, over the top. We changed to "flex time". Each employee now gets 10 days a year flex to use when he/she desires. No more sick time, vacation time, or holiday pay. Our supervisors/directors get 15 days a year flex.

The employees understood the changes needed, our employees are great! Some have been there 12 years and that, to me, says alot...

What are ya'lls thoughts?
