In Canada, there is a probationary period upon hiring. During this period, an employer can fire an employee without notice, and an employee can quit without notice. Once the period is finished, either are required to give notice, unless there is grievous violation of the employment contract on behalf of the employee.
I'm not sure what it's like in the US, but unless you have it on paper that you can deduct those costs from their final pay if they quit before a specific period of time has passed, you are completely SOL. -
Also in WI you cannot make deductions that would lower the wage below minimum wage. Given the guy worked for two days, I highly doubt there would be much to collect.
