I need some input as to what drection i should take my life in.


I am currently the Co owner Of stillwater lawn service I make good money but i work 7 days a week 6 months a year. My boss is as mean as they come. I have 6 months off but i live in the middle of nowhere and have nothing to do for those months off. I have little job satisfaction

I eather stay there or Go to Atlanta to try and start over and live with my brother for a while and get a 5 day a week job.


But the hard part is is i leave my boss who is also my father will disown me and i will not collect a million dollar inhieritance. but with my current job i dont think i could have a real relasionship wich is what i want most of all.

You have to go with what you feel is right in your heart.

OR you can go for the money.

Hmmm...co-owner of a business AND a million dollar inheritance??? Sounds like a nice hook for the ladies, don't it?

I just want a relasionship i dont want to destory my family 20 years old and never had a long term relasionship


yea but my father isnt going to retire and he is one mean bastard last time i made a mistake i got a full 5 gallon gas can thrown at me. there are not many people where i live

What would you rather have money or happiness? I personally would rather be happy. Maybe you can talk to your father and work something out so your not working seven days a week.

I agree, in order to be happy you have to do whats best for you, don't let the negativity of others slow you down find your happiness and do what make you happy. Its your life not!! theres.

First you say that you are CO-OWNER but yet your boss is mean.

If you are co-owner then you don't have a boss.

If your father truly cares for you as a son he will understand if you want out of the business. And if you are co owner then the other owner should buy you out and there will be the money you need to start your new life.

Never let money be the driving force in your life.

if you are a co-owner how is it you have a boss? would that not be a partner?

I say slip him some.. Oh nevermind..

Go with happiness.

Well you have option 3 after this. You could always have your father declared incompetent be made his guardian, be in control of finaces and do what you want in the end.

Bottom line to me sorry but money would not be a choice for me give up my self respect and integrity...I would walk a way..

I am the Jr co owner I still have to report to him he has more power then me

bottom line is do you want your father to control your life or do you want to take control back from him.

Follow your heart, money will come later

Well the good thing is your still young. If you are unhappy what you are doing now, I would leave if I were you. It's only going to make you resent him in the long run. Go down to Atlanta, I think you would LOVE it there.

And you shouldn't worry about your father disowning you or about the money. Tell him to quit being a d!ck, and do your thing.

I never put much stock into inheritences. I had a girlfriend once who was due to inherit 1/3 of a million and she was a miserable person to live with. I chose happy and free, invariably.

I was 20 once, Do what you want. But remember one thing. Your dad probally started this with you in mind.

Depends on what you wanna do in ATL. The job market here isn't all that great if you're looking for something specialized and professional.

I jost looked at yer profile and yeah, I'd take ATL over NJ anyway. Much warmer here. Lawn care lasts 10+ months.

I hate to sound inconsiderate and/or disrespectful so pardon my bluntness before you read the rest of my post.

You're 20 years old; sounds like it's time to grow a backbone. You're right about one thing though, you've got 2 options.

1. Stay there and take his mess to keep him happy and/or stake claim to the inheritance.

OR...

2. Stand up, be a man and tell him to kick rocks! I understand he's family in all but what do you need with family that won't/can't realize your worth??

Just my dos centavos...buenas suerte

A relationship requires finding a women. Doesn't matter if you work in lawn care or a shop.
