I think the big surprise comes in when they realize how much front office work is involved in owning a business. They think "well, hell, I've been fixing cars for a living for 20 years and I do it better than anyone here. If I open my own garage, I'll get to keep all the profit for doing the same job". Then they open their own garage and realize that they now have about 20% of their time to devote to fixing cars and the rest of it is spent dealing with accounting, administrative, sales, dealing with employees, dealing with banks, dealing with the IRS, getting the landlord to fix something in the facility...and on and on. Suddenly they are working more hours than ever but making less money because only a small part of their time is devoted to stuff that they can bill someone for.

Wait a minute ... that sounds suspiciously like corporate America. By the time I get done fighting fires and sitting in endless meetings, I only do real work about 20% of the time. ;)

LOL!! The ratio I keep hearing for a brewery is 90% paperwork/b.s. and 10% brewing. Yeehaw! At least there is beer at the end of the day

Sounds like me. If you subtract the time I spend driving to and from all my accounts, breakfast, lunch, beer hunting, second lunch, more beer hunting, and sitting in my truck posting on HBT, I only really do about 4hrs of real uninterrupted work in a typical day. :D

First and now second double jack while catching up on posts.
Thinking tonight is gonna be order out night, as I'm not motivated to cook after cooking every night for the last week. Crazy and crappy day at work didn't help either.

Living vicariously through you guys because I'm at ballet class. Don't be jealous, ballet class is nowhere near as cool as it sounds.
