my p*r*nts refuse to scale their business

[thereallegend]

their business has work worth $150/hr scheduled out for the next 6 weeks because of warm weather.
my dad won't take a leave of absence from his $11/hr driving job (probably because he think it's immoral and he won't be able to find another job like that when they replace him).
so instead of meeting the demand worth $150/hr in quicker fashion (and possibly getting more clients because of it)...he's just gonna work 7 days a week (50% at $11/hr driving job, 50% doing self employed business) for the next 2 months.

they're lucky to be in an unsaturated industry where they can get away with being stupid like that.
they could hire a qualified part time housekeeper cook for $15-18/hr to reinvest even more time in the business.
they could hire a qualified temporary part time employee for $19-21/hr to be able to scale even more.

At first I was gonna say you're a spoiled brat. But after reading this I see you're absolutely right. Your father's being retarded. Ain't no sense in living to work. Time is infinitely more valuable than money.

I don't benefit from the money of this business. I pay to live here. Not much but still I pay to live here. I'm on my own financially except for housing.

based calculations, from you. imo.
in the future, when you are out on your own. You can show your parents, how it should be done. and mogg them. They should be happy, when you mogg them.

Refusing to scale is the difference between middle class and being rich.

You should do the work for the business

Yeah, being loyal to a boss is foolish.

Yeah I could but I already work. I'm pretty sure they'd pay me more than my current job. But at the same time they know I'd need training and that I'm not qualified to be doing this shit right off the bat.
But yeah that's a good observation. The door is open if I wanna get involved.

I know that if I get hurt or anything that they'd look after me n shit (cuz I'm on their healthcare plan).

You have to take risks in life. Would you be able to get back into your job if all went south?

 

[Deleted member 26859]

i like how you think tho

 

[thereallegend]

Would you be able to get back into your job if all went south?

Absolutely

Why aren't you working in their business then?

Got my own shit goin on plus I'm unqualified. My current job allows me to socialize with people my age too.

But you already said that objectively it would be better to work with them since they'd pay you more and you'd get overall more benefits

Aren't you a bit hypocrite with your parents?
