No !!!
I am paying them well over the $9.50 minimum wage !!
They’re making good $$$ at 13 dollars

In Vegas, that's plenty enough to buy your dog a snack.

They are spineless and costing me $$$
I go right to the big upsell or I get zero

You ever consider you don't deserve great employees?

Well, then they have zero reason to upsell.

Not being a dick, it's just the truth.

They ain’t ever getting a raise again

My last employee was amazing at upselling
She was killing the sales
Unfortunately she quit after only 3 months

I was shocked she quit
I even was paying her very well and I gave her extra hours too
She was mid 50s and was my best employee in Vegas

Well, what do I care? I'm not your employee.

You said they were stable, mature and reliable. A thing that's been impossible to achieve in the last 4.5 years.

I've been a manager and/or supervisor a lot of years. In my book, those 3 qualities are priceless. Especially in

positions that don't pay that well.

If you treat your employees well, with respect and appreciation, I think you'd find they'll return the favor and have better work habits as well.

Go ahead and cause good employees to quit, you're only hurting yourself.

I agree but they don’t upsell like I do
I can really drive up bad sales and make them good

Why not hire a third employee and then let go the one that brings in the less sales over a certain period of time? Or instead of firing one perhaps temporarily keep the two laggers on as part time to see if that gets the message across to one of them.
