It's true that you don't need school to start your own business but if he could go back, then why not?
School teaches you the business fundamentals. It provides case studies (businesses who go bad, business that expand and grow, legal stuff etc) and teaches on how to avoid them instead of living them through your own business.

Its a 50/50 for me. Sometimes I can do no wrong and i love my job, other times i cant do any thing right. The economy isnt helping either. I get paid by the job and there are days where all im doing is sitting around waiting for a customer, not making any money.

Lmao, well not a cleaver but ya you're right. It gets boring after the first day :P

The funny thing is I found out that Rachel works for the company that picks up the bone barrels that we fill up.

I make 22$ which is not bad though, and great benifits..

hahahahhaah.... The sushi guys don't make that much I think, and ya I think its closer to 40 though. I'm under their old contract so I make a lot more then most people in that store. Only people that make around the same are old employees that are "managers", well actually only dept. heads should be making that much... :\

Those sushi guys prob make like 12-14?? lmao... Grocery business sucks!
