We downsized a few weeks back. All staff, other than myself and my wife, are gone. I actually show up to work with a spring in my step, and even my wife who had little love for this place, now rolls up her sleeves without (much) protest. The people I talk to around my age who employ others, tend to say the same thing. Life was better without the staff and the stresses that come with them. Bizarrely, I'm working longer hours yet it doesn't feel like it. Wish we'd done it sooner.
