Honestly do not want to keep up this insane pace, I figured the business I am in would be slowing by now. I keep arguing with my wife about either downsizing the customers or hiring help (unlikely). I keep pushing back the date for that decision. Wanting to see what the economy is going to do.
I thought this morning. This article is discussing European employees. They are mortified by the prospect of working a 40 hour week.
Therefore to disclose a 48 hour work week, well, that is a horrific prospect. Us crazy Americans think a 48 hour week is a short week. Especially the self employed.

Our philosophy was to just raise the prices on projects and clients that are not our best customers. Some will go away, and roll around in the mud looking for a few bucks cheaper company, but most just accept a small bump, and we make more money, and have less work. Win Win.
