Hi,
This is key. When workers are only working part time, they often get to work overtime on their dayjob and then you are missing out on your work.
You refer to them as employees, but are they really independent contractors? I don't see how they would be contractors if they are full time and you train them. So, this leads to my next question: If you hire full time employees, don't you have to pay employment tax?
Seriously?
If they work 6+ hours I'm more than happy with it.
