打工 vs. 自做老板 老板, 打工

ACC-HE

打工.. you work every weekday, get a hopefully decent salary, but usually stable.  But, many of 打工仔 might hate 受氣.  東家唔打打西家... does that work in Vancouver?  Usually there's only 1 家...

自己做老板... you (potentially) earn much more, but on the flip side, the risk and stress are much higher.  Time for kids and family would reduce.  Everything's $$$ in the eyes.

What do you prefer?

all i can tell you is that IT jobs are not necessary stable.

受氣.... it happens to almost all jobs.  middle management is the worst position.

自己做老板... if you don't have a mortgage or you have someone backing you up ...

in the first couple of years you won't have any vacation.

prefer ... money to grow on trees ....

I prefer 打工, 鬼叫自己冇乜大志咩。如果受氣嘅話，咪搵個第二份囉，搵唔到咯，都要頂硬上架啦。
不過我都叫好采，呢份工都做咗好耐.

The nature of my job is kind of in the middle
never have to 受氣 since I don't really have a boss strictly speaking
but I am still paid on a salary
