Chronicles of the Gardener

I was able to talk to Nelson yesterday with my driver and tell him that he needed to come to work Monday-Friday for at least 2 hours a day and if he didn't I would find another gardener. He said that last Thursday he drank to much and fell and hit his head that is why he wasn't here on Friday. I could not believe he told me that and when he did I lost all sympathy for him. I had Baptista tell him that he was a grown man and needed to be responsible and come to work because he has 5 kids at home. I told him he could drink on Saturday and Sunday but not during the week so he could come to work. He told me that maybe he would start going to church instead of drinking. :-) I told him that sounded like a great plan to me. He was here this morning at 6:30 so we are off to a good start. It doesn't usually last but a few days so we will see what happens next week.
