It's also illegal, but you could always plead ignorance.

Or just make it a warning before they start that you'll dock pay for dumbness

I like that idea. I might need to make an addition to the employee handbook. I think I will add 3 sections entitled dumbness, laziness, and forgetfulness. All punishable by 1 full day of trimming those rocky ditches that hurt like hell.

Great idea. That will be strike 2. If this lawn care thing doesn't work out maybe I should look into human resources.
