Quote:I'm not suggesting blacklists, or sacking people (I've been there, I know what it takes from the sharp end), far from it.I was responding to your suggestion that "if you weren't good enough, you'd be asked to leave". My point was that there's no legal way of "asking someone to leave" employment. If they decide to stay put and decline your request, then you can only sack them - and you need more grounds than them just not being good enough. I guess if you ask them to leave and they go without a fight, then you're fine. It's a bit of a gamble though.
I have no issue with trying to raise standards in archaeology - you make excellent suggestions.
