I am a lumberjack. My job is dangerous.
I started my company. I have a wife and child.
What do you do at work? I own a moving company. We do everything from packing moving boxes for people, to loading and unloading the truck, to driving it all cross-country. That's great! I always wanted to start my own company. I hope someday I will.  It is a lot of hard work and stress, but I love that I am in control of everything. Would you start your own logging business, or something else? If I could, I would love to. I don't mind the hard-work. I would love to be in control as well. You should start thinking about it. I assume that being a lumberjack is stressful on your body, so being able to have employees do all of the hard labor while you take care of the business from the office might be nice when you're older. Thanks for your input. That's a really great suggestion. I will surely give it a serious thought. How old is your current boss? Maybe he'd be open to selling the business to you when he retires. It never hurts to ask, and maybe he'd take you under his wing to mentor you.
