New England style seafood restaurant someplace where all the seafood is Captain D's tier garbage. 3 kinds of clam chowder and fish and chips for miles, motherfuckers.

Assume you can make a decent living off of it, and that business itself is (semi) realistic.

My dad still says that 99% of people in the trades are there due to not having options, so someone like himself who just fell in love with building things in engineering school had an unfair competitive advantage

Recently my wife needed to find a contractor to fabricate and install some new ventilation hoods over the kilns at the studio she runs. There were a lot of contractors who failed at incredibly simple things like:
I mean sure you don't expect every HVAC crew or tin knocker to want this specific job, but this is contractors who initially responded to requests but then couldn't manage the most basic attempt at earning the business. And this is before costs were discussed (the job in the end was around $50k, including significant electrical work, so this wasn't a small potatoes job either). If you don't want the work right now it's still kind of a good idea to not give people reason to leave you really lovely reviews and tell people you're not worth working with, you know?

I'm sort of kicking myself a bit for not taking much interest in my dad's renovation projects because 1) it'd probably help when I get my own house someday, and 2) it'd be nice to have a fall back plan should my industry go tits up.

It's always good to know basic home renovation projects. But there's likely a recession coming in the next year or so, and I'd think that would harm contractors more than whatever you currently do.

You'd be gobsmacked how far actually answering your goddamned phone goes. We get customer service surveys and they asked me how I am consistently getting 100s. They boiled it down to me answering my goddamned phone immediately no matter what I'm doing. So yeah if you're starting a business always answer your phone even if it's to say you have to give a quick call back because you can't talk.

Yeah. If I want a job done on my house I am going to try to line up at least three estimates. There are like 50 contractors in my area so the three contractors that get to make an estimate are going to be the first three who answer their phone when I try to call them. I will leave a message so if you call me back you get a shot at my business but if you wait a week to call me back then welp gently caress off. Oh my god, what if there were contractors that answered emails, too? gently caress, that would be like some kind of impossible paradise scenario, right?

The family business doesn't really do residential work anymore unless it's a grand scale development, but my dad made me apprentice with every trade union that the firm is signatory with ((painters (which encompasses plaster, drywall and tile setting) and carpenters)). I buy houses in blighted neighborhoods around town, and restore them to original condition and sell them without much concern for profit just because I love physically working with tools, as I do not get to do that in my day job now that my parents are retired There is a lot to be said for the pleasure and satisfaction you get from completing a reno job. I wish there were a German word like fahrvergnugen to describe it
