Exactly.
I have had better luck hiring 40 and over, both locally and remotely. They appreciate having a job, bust their ass, and have a better work ethic. They more than earn their keep, and you reward them for their efforts and commitment.
This year I sent one to Disney with their family for a week, and the other to Chicago for vacation. Last year, it was free iPad. The point being, you give them rewards they are not expecting, and treat them well as the prove themselves.
Good employees you want to keep. Are willing to pay more. They have paid their dues, and it's easier to keep a good employee than train and hire new one's. It just takes some time to find the good one's who want a solid job, have the work ethic to become an asset versus an expense.
