Pushing a bus uphill wishing people were more responsible!

Damn I am so frustrated!
Today is the end of the month but we haven't met our targets and it seems the loss is going to be pretty large. Thankfully we have a large volume of work at hand which if converted to money would help to cover up this months losses next month.
But sadly it seems that I am the only one who is interested in making this happen.
Today we have lots of work. But most of my team players are not performing to their full capacity cos they got drunk last night. I walk in this morning to realise half of them are not there which means all the work I plan to get done today will happen half heartedly or not at all. One of my senior team members did not even bother to inform that he was not going to come. Even though he has a lot of important stuff to finish.
Right now it seems that I am the only person here who is interested in protecting these guys jobs. I wonder if they realise the seriousness of the economic situation in the country. That all hands have to pull together if we are to make it work.
Right now at this moment I feel i am pushing a bus uphill and those who are in the bus are my staff who are enjoying the ride and think its a party going on.
As I started this operation it was fun to employ people and see how they develop and there was a joy about being able to contribute to the lives of people along with the members of their families in a positive manner. But right now I wish I could just reduce my outfit to a bare minimum get rid of the dead wood and be able to work on projects which I love. Instead of having to now work on projects purely for the financial benefits cos I have to pay the salaries of nearly fifty people at the end of the month.
I was reading on rajaratarala's other blog how the biggest problem in Sri Lanka is the fact that there are not enough people with proper skills in working. This is absolutely true. I was talking to another CEO the other day who said one of his friends has shifted his entire software development operation from Sri Lanka to England because he found the workers there were far more responsible. I agree with him absolutely. I find our people are so lazy and unproductive and having to work with the creative types makes this worse by a factor of ten.
Can some one make a responsibility pill please. I need to huge dose of it to be given to my so called team mates.
