Black Friday saw better sales than last year in my business. I saw less sleep than last year, which is a broken promise to myself.

I’ve done a good job in the last 16 hours, and my crew has done an excellent job, which is a testament to my work over the last two years. But ultimately it’s not my money, and nobody really cares about my success. It’s a bit unsatisfying. I guess that’s why it’s “work”.

Madness.
