If you think lifes dealing you unfair relationships with employers ; try running your own business for a few years yourself & see what it's like . I owned/operated my own contracting business for 25 yrs until my health went sour .Trying to find honest & worthy help was a treat . Everyone said they knew how to operate & keep up equipment/tools & construct things according to requirements ( huh ! ). I overlooked true accidents that cost me extra on redoing & replacing for awhile . Carelessness was another story .That gets old & very costly after awhile . The workers didn't hesitate holding there hands out on payday & wanting bonus for extra time we spent straightning up their screw-ups . Also I learned the hard way about employees helping themselves to parts/ mat'l/doing personal work at my expense .As an employee they didn't have to answer to the customer or work extra hours or spend extra out of pocket money fixing their screw-ups for nothing .My paydays weren't as rewarding as I had hoped at times . Like I say Kid , you're young , so try it on your own for awhile & get a real lesson . Maybe you'll then appreciate a job where all you have to do is punch in - do your work - punch out & forget the job for the rest of the day . Also it'll help you appreciate your employer . Have a good day . Ken C
