As far as lessons:
You'll never manage a shithead into a good employee. If they don't want to be there, you'll never get them to want to. Don't waste the time.
Be up front about the job and expectations. That way you don't have to try to fix bad habits.

One of the biggest challenges these days is the inability of companies to communicate properly. The company will make it one of the key goals for you but in practice they normally do a poor job of it.
