Thanks two bit.
I work alone most of the year, but this past summer I had my step-son work with me. I actually fired him the summer prior! Now that he's 16 and drives, he's a little more willing to get out of bed and make some money. I let him run the tractor while I operated a CTL on a job in July. At that age they think that they know everything, so it was pretty entertaining watching his frustration in getting the hang of the fel and box blade.
In my former life in socal as a licensed concrete and general contractor, I had anywhere from 5-30 employees at any given time. Now my job is a lot less stressful and I enjoy it a lot more!
