Da MAIN THING about "being yer own boss" is......

Truer words were never written, Jim. My husband is on the verge of either drastically changing his site (cuz it ain't payin' off as much as he'd like) or just giving up on it all. Why? Because basically HE isn't cut out to be his own boss...he hates the learning curves, the marketing, tweaking, testing, and so on. He is, however, one of the BEST employees anyone could wish for...consistently delivering 150% or more.

On the other hand, I find not 'being the boss' and being able to put my 'better ideas' into action extremely frustrating. I dearly love management, for the most part (nothing is 100% perfect, let's face it). I love training others, making up schedules, coming up with innovative marketing and management ideas and seeing them pay off and so on. It isn't a bed of roses but, if you're cut from the right cloth for it, it's the best 'job' in the world. If you're not, well, it's pure hell from what I've observed.
