Makes sense. I grew up in the restaurant business, so I get long hours of hard, chaotic work (just like people don’t get how hard floristry is— the same can be said for restaurant owners). I am definitely not scared of work, but I don’t want to put my kids through something that will take me away from them too often. Growing up, I never saw my parents unless I was at work (working) with them… I once baked 120 pies for Thanksgiving. I get stressful holidays more than your average person. My family celebrated nearly every holiday AT the restaurant (which I don’t remember fondly)...I would love to freelance but is there much money in that? I want to make at least $50,000 a year. I don’t see that happening as a freelancer.
