I need someone to talk me out of this or something probably but the idea of team play is so appealing to me that I keep looking for ways to make it a reality. I own a business so I have employees now and than. I have found qualified candidates through the job posting at the University in my area.
What about posting a "job opening" for a "risk assessment professional?" I could set qualifications, take applications, run background checks, run simple math tests, even personality tests, and put the applicants who pass through training. I can pick the ones that are best suited and put them on a minimum wage hourly payroll with a small "profit sharing" bonus at my newly formed "investment" business. I would be the big bettor always so my main risks I see are; They lie about how many min bets they lost, They lie about the counts just to gamble. They talk too much and I end up getting barred everywhere. They just take off with the couple hundred I give them to min bet with. If I set up business rules and someone doesn't adhere to them (ie: runs off with a few hundred, skims, bets above the guidelines) I would have the same legal recourses as I would at my day job. Wouldn't I? Has anyone been involved in or witness to something like this? What are the ups/downs you see? I know an ATTY opinion about the business legalities will be needed in the final stretches but mine is $300/hr so I don't call until she is really needed.
I still remember the reference AutoMonkey gave of team play to group sex and VD which really struck a cord with me. I would really like some devils advocates here.
Thanks
