so these past few years have been tough out here in California as far as work is concerned. I was one of the many affected by the housing crash. blah blah blah. im not hear to bitch and moan. I made the situation work. i believe that comes from a long instilled work ethic passed on to me by my parents both of whom work 60plus hours a week still. so during these hard time I started building and fabricating different things for people making a name for myself locally as a bit of a do all electrician/fabricator. so I have this friend who helps me out a lot with different projects. we decided to team up and start building things as a team. this is what has brought me to a crossroad. I am the one with the tools, connections, motivation, and what seems like the only one with enough balls to make a decision. I can ask my partner time and time again his opinion, input, whatever you want to call it and i cant get a straight answer if I shoved a T post up his keester. this is causing a lot of stress. I come home at night and continue the design process, constantly thinking of what the next build could be, so on and so forth. My question tonight is. How long do i continue to be the only one in the partnership that is motivated to keep it going or keep work coming in? How do you dissolve a partnership that started as a fantastic friendship? I had a friend tell me one time that a Partnership is the only ship that sinks. Im starting to think this to be true.
