No , in terms of paying ourselves salaries , it was a humongous loss . I would consider our business a success because we had dozens of satisfied regular customers who are eagerly awaiting our return . According to my research and experience working for other people in this same field , with our planned investment in equipment , we ' ll be able to return to regular business owner hours 5060 hoursweek in the busy season , 2030 hoursweek in the slow season while also paying ourselves a decent wage . Less than an employed professional makes , but job security given its our own business , and the fact that we both love what we do , is worth a fortune in itself . <| sep |> 4 th Year Materials Engineering Student , how did you get your erection to go away ?
