Forget the "compliment sandwich" crap. I like to do a compliment half sandwich. First part "The team is worreid about you, you know you're awesome, that's why your still on this team you asshole", Second part ",but the hours you put in are low, what do you think?". I try to let people give me their own solutions to problems and hold them accountable. Chances are if someones screwing up I think they know it already, we all just need a bit of prodding every now and then. Honesty is best. Also if you guys are doing this start up part time then you may still have time to dump it and start a new one.
