Anytime you are presented with the opportunity to work you will take it because you will (should) fear that it will be the last work you will ever get and will have to survive the rest of your life off what you earn from it. I certainly do. That makes it real difficult to turn down work in favour of vacation.
Whats a vacation?
Just got back from the countertop people and had an interesting talk with them. They don't want me to sub for them, but they will give people who want custom work done my number. This I think will avoid the pitfalls of being partners with them. Though they did say if I start getting busy and doing regular work, they will work with me on the countertops if I do the installation. Basically, I'll get their discount rate and then can charge for installation.
There is a cabinet shop in town, but he is so busy he only takes kitchen orders and the lead time is usually over 3 months.
I told them I wanted to start off slow, so for now, no kitchens. I don't have the space right now to do a complete kitchen. So for now they will only send people who want custom vanities.
For now, this is still going to be side work, but if it gets busy, then I'll have to look into the business side and get a tax ID number. Good thing the LOML is also a bookkeeper.
So far, this looks like a win/win situation.
