I read the OP golf reference as 'tongue in cheek 'banter
You are running a business, succesfully I assume. You are giving two people employment, and still doing the 'crap' yourself.
That you choose and find time to play golf is your business alone. Good luck to you, mate
I have been in a very near situation to you, and it does make you wonder whether people appreciate or even care whether you go through the rigours of running a business to give then a job/living
I am in the process of having to make someone redundant, and all I am getting from him is sh1t. The choices are ..he goes or business closes.

it can be very tough at times and sounds like you are in the worst situation possible  unfortunately for him  you and your business come first  and laying off or sacking people is never a nice thing to do

I am getting very hard and anti now. Despite offering alternatives (hours/wage cuts), he refuses to accept anything as alternative. He wants the full job, no ifs and buts Been mucking about for 6 months now, but the end of the road is in sight. I have backing now from audit/financial team.
Sorry mate, did not mean to hijack your thread, but its just that people like you and me try to help others and we get s**t on from a great height
Rant over

i feel for you mate  i had to shut down a few months ago as people werent paying my bills but back with a vengence this time and more of a passion to succeed

know exactly what you mean mate 
lost my business nearly 2 years ago because those with the money wouldn't pay up on time   
just found the the money to go bankrupt thanks to the RAF charities and the british legion ( don't get benefits )

Stuff the banks and the credit cards, they tried to shaft me and failed cos i ain't got anything they can take 
come back in 6 to 9 months later
recharged and a hell of a lot wiser
