by cake business do you mean cake hobby? Or has she rented a commercial kitchen, taken out a business licence, bought business insurance and worked out a formal business plan...?

My wife started selling skirts she makes for kids and American Girl Dolls on Etsy. She sells them for $20 - 40 each, I guess depending on how expensive the fabric is, but she often gets it for no more than $10 a yard which is enough for 3-4 skirts.
Craziest thing is people buy clothes for their children's dolls that is more expensive than clothes for adults.

Fucking white people.
Also my in-laws are mortified she is sewing for a hobby. Mainly because they are Filipino and I guess they look down on that type of work?

She has just left a job in a commercial kitchen, and worked at another catering company. We are getting ready to purchase commercial equipment, yes. As far as the rest a lot of that is not really required around here, and a plan? I mean we've been in business before, so we have the S corp and all that already sitting there as it still is used for rental properties for the family... and I get what you are talking about with a formal plan, but we aren't going that crazy about it, outside of opening the accounts and business ID's and what not. I'd say this is more formal than a hobby, and she is professionally trained in the craft, but we aren't looking to start a national chain either. She has contacts and has already signed on to do the cakes and formal baking for her previous job so we already have a good start on client base, and all of her personal contacts will stick with her that she has been baking for in her previous job. Job was catering director for a small university cafeteria, so it wasn't their primary purpose to sell cakes, and in fact they suggested doing it this way.

He was making an honest observation, without being a dick; A grown up point in discussion which you bashed him for not doing before....And you bashed him, and thats as petty and childish as the shit that you've come down on him for. Now you're just going stupid.

Oh I got that. And really it was a fair question as a LOT of people do that. We may start out at that pace but hopefully inside of a year she'll be doing 10 cakes a week along with a big catering order here and there. However, our goal for the catering side is just prepping the food and delivering it for the most part, not really full on running of events. However, we also are looking at converting one of the barns on the family farm into an "event center" and move the commercial stuff into a kitchen there, but that is way down the road stuff there as it would cost a ton to turn a 100+ year old barn into something that can actually hold formal events.

Same tactics I used for dishwashing. Woops, did I drop one of your precious royal copenhagen tea set porcelain? Totally an accident.

The reason why women bitch about their work is because they have no meaningful outlet/capacity/ability to do so at work. You can't cuss out your manager for being a dumb bitch, you can't call out the incompetent co-worker for fucking up the 100th time, there's not much merit in completely fucking up a manageable work-place dynamic by telling the creepy guy to leave you alone. By the time she's getting home she's had a few hours to stew over all the dumb shit she had to deal with and..viola. 45 minute rant.

It's all this. Not giving a fuck is part of being a man.
And if life was a wedding I'd be like... the best man.
