Yes, a few times when I had my shop and had to let someone go because their work wasn't up to my standards. I had to tell them the truth and always felt kind of bad about it afterwards. Shabby work cost me customers and I couldn't have that. I had to be honest with them and always felt regretful for letting them go but it had to be done.
