    Who has their own business?

    The company I work for is looking very unlikely to make it much longer in this slow construction market, our costs of operation are just too high to make due with a spotty workload. I'm thinking about what to do next and would like to know what some folks are doing for businesses they started, or if you work for someone who started one and its sucessful/cool.

    Any input?

              I wouldn't want to deal with products made from used condoms either.

                    I quit working at the stealership a couple months ago. Auto sales at the stealership dropped off by over 50% more than the previous winter. Working 65 hours a week for just the draw? No thanks!

                    I've got a previous coworker who is now in the marine business trying to get me to go work with him. We both know boat sales are in the shitter but he's doing pretty well and says I could make some decent coin for the next few months. I'm a little hesitant to say the least.

                      I own a stealership, it's been a slow winter. Lucky for me it's it's tiny piece of shit lot with low overhead so it's hard to go broke.
