I swear to god, they're the chuddiest of small business owners and every single one does that shit where they have a huge truck and a huge suv for their stay at home wife and a boat and a ridiculously tacky mcmansion and an absurd amount of debt.

Like, is there some sort of grift where you can just walk into a bank and say you want to start a landscaping business and they just let you borrow an infinite amount of money even though you're only going to have income for like 5 months out of the year?

    Cause you can hire exploited undocumented workers (while complaining about them otherwise) and basically anyone able bodied enough can do it. It's not a very technical job, I did it for two years and after like a month I knew enough shit to start my own if I had the credit and leverage (I did not lol)

            I feel you. I live in an apartment rn but i lived in a house for 5 years before hand and I kind of liked popping in my headphones and listening to theory while mowing and cleaning out the gutters and such.

                I tend to read theory 2 or 3 times through anyway. So if I miss anything it’s not a big deal. But it def depends on the theory. Lol

            Lots of manual labour is like that, I really enjoy it too. Assembly lines aren't too bad (usually can't listen to anything though) but my favourite is picking corn probably.

        I didn't mind it when I was younger but it's hard on my knees and lower back now. I gotta pace myself doing work like that instead of putting in 8+ straight hours. I could still do it if I had to but it's not worth the damage to my body if it's just a casual project I'm working on.
