Working like a dog...

[Jon3020]

Hi there,

This is my intro.

I've been working as a chef for a long time. I've worked fulltime and casual. Working in top restaurants and catering at events like the Grand Prix.

I had a business selling steamed pork dumplings and rice at music festivals which was amazing then everyone else jumped on the bandwagon. I then tried Amazon selling golf mats in the EU, UK and US. Not bad, but a bit of a headfuck with all the different back accounts, companies etc. I also don't like golf!

I love food, and anything cooking related. While working as a private chef for a very wealthy family in Australia I was able to start selling charcuterie which I sold on the weekends at farmers markets. We had a new born son so in-between serving customers we where changing nappies in the back of the car. Fast forward 4 years and we have a small factory and 4 staff. It's the week before Christmas and we are getting absolutely slammed hard everyday. 16hr days for the last two weeks. See the kids on Facetime and I'm buggered. We close on Christmas eve for 2 weeks. Another hell week to go until I curl up in the fetal position and sleep.

I'd like to start another business as charcuterie is high risk and high costs. So I'd like to see what else is out there.

Cheers,

Jon
