I quit my job one year ago and went FT owning a lawn care business. I only work Monday through Friday, home every evening, hunt when I want in the Winter, and genuinely enjoy what I do. I was a little concerned with how much revenue I'd generate my first year, but I've far exceeded my expectations financially. Do you just cut grass mainly? I wish I could get somone around Bham to tap me for the overgrown stuff, I could get in there with my subcompact and flail mower.

Cut grass, trim shrubs, light chainsaw work, mulch, pinestraw, light landscaping. I mainly work Chilton county but do a little commercial work in Shelby county and south Birmingham.

Why not transition into Fireman? Because that's not how it works. He's already in law enforcement because he couldn't make it in the Fire Service. I thought everyone knew that?

Somehow I think you got it backwards. Dragging a hose across the street is a lot easier than dealing with the public on every call you go on. 
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Why not transition into Fireman? One of our officers did just that. Went from LEO to hose jockey

There’s always a need for good plumbers, Electricians or HVAC guys. It’s done well for me. The routes are endless in these lines of work. I’ve been able to work on anything from residential houses to proprietary systems used in Google’s Data Centers that only a handful of people in the world work on. Always a route for advancement, especially if you apply yourself, are driven, understand sales and communication- which I assume you do based off your history in sales and LEO.
The fool tells me his reasons; the wise man persuades me with my own.
