Greg Luckett Posted April 6, 2003 Report Share Posted April 6, 2003 Charlie, Yes I am envious of your shop and wish I had one even half that nice and big. The long hours are normal work weeks for most of the people I know anymore, and they are not self employed. Last year I bailed out of that sort of life and began running my own business doing residential repairs and swimming pool servicing. The hours are better, the stress is less, I have a HUGE increase in control of my labor, and now I am building my own business with my time instead of working for mostly ungrateful empolyers. Trade offs are the obvious ones....all risk is mine. I only work part time at Home Depot during the slow times, and learn a lot from the customers at the same time. My hat is off to you. Respectfully, Greg Luckett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
