I run the lawn care department at a non-profit landscaping company by day, and bartend by night.

This interests me a lot. How does a non-profit landscaping company work if I may ask? Do you guys do lots of volunteer/low cost work for certain people? I hope Im not being too nosy. I mostly am wondering because I know a local Mr. Moneybags in my town who happens to have gotten rich entirely off of his landscaping business which he started around 25-30 years ago, but even for him it took an exceptionally long time to actually build up that wealth. He wasnt making a decent living until about 10 years ago and got properly wealthy right before covid

Nice to see someone in a trade, and also someone helping folks. I'm doing a similar thing with construction work, working in a worker owned collective, building affordable housing and doing maintenance work.

Can't say that I don't like drinking either, but I am liking this new trend of non-alcoholic craft beers.
