Being a small business owner I really like the statement made that the boss gets to go home every night to the family and has weekends free.
I can assure that there is not very many waking hours in the day that I am not either working on or thinking about the business and how to make it happen. I can not remember the last time that I did not at least spend some time of the day on the computer conducting business work. That includes weekends, holidays, etc.
This is most likely the reason why I treasure the chance I have to go fishing but, unfortunately, can not do it often enough.
I often sit back and think, wouldn't it be nice to be an employee again and know that from the time I leave work till the time I get back to it the business is not my worry and I can relax.
Sure running a business has its lurks and purks but in the end it is down to just hard work and many hours to make it work. If as an employee you averaged between 80 to 100 hours per week, 52 works per year, at work that you would like to be able to afford what it seems the boss takes for granted.
Remember, if running a business was easy everyone would be doing it and small business keeps the country going.
Support small business it is what makes Australia work.
Glad that is off my chest. Let's get back to some nicer topics like when is the next time I am going fishing and will I catch anything this time?
