When I worked a seasonal job as a Tax Preparer, a guy came by with that window washing business. The manager hired him twice that season to clean the windows. I think he had built up a pretty good business.
I’m already working outdoors but as winter approaches trying to get back to inside work. A desk job would seem pretty good right now (though once weather gets nice I tend to want the great outdoors again). I’m trying to think of something more with a balance of both.
But thanks for the suggestion. I’m sure someone here may take your idea and run with it.
I was da bossman, da head honcho, da big cheese. I can't tell you how many times that meant that I slept on a cold concrete floor because I was too damn tired to even get in the car and drive home. Employees get off at five. The boss stays until the job is finished. Sometimes it was forty or forty-eight hours straight. Just home long enough to shower and shave.
It's a damn strange feeling to unlock your front door, walk in and see that everything is so unfamiliar.
THAT is what owning your own business is, especially if you have more than one. Not everyone can do it or wants to do it. Thats alright, but recognize the limitations. It ain't all peaches and cream and big paychecks.
