Six years with the first practice and things are genuinely strong. Capital planning, entity structure, cash flow modeling for a dual location setup, I know these things matter before signing anything. What did others have properly in place before expanding a dental practice? Any thoughts on buying the location with a mortgage? Owner likes real estate.

Sometimes work with freelance partners on joint projects. Can they come work from my office for the day or is that not allowed?

I've been doing commercial video work in the Pacific Northwest for about four years now, mostly regional brands, some tech companies, a few brewery and hospitality clients, and I'm seriously considering relocating to Florida, probably the Tampa or Orlando area, partly for personal reasons and partly because I've heard the production market there is busier than people outside it realize.

Is that true? Is there actually a healthy market for freelance commercial videographers in central and south Florida, or is it dominated by large production companies with their own crew networks to the point where independent operators can't really get a foothold?

I've been doing some research and came across beverly boy productions as one of the bigger full-service companies operating in the Florida market, which at least tells me there are established players there, but I'm not sure if that means more opportunity to plug into or more competition to navigate.

Any perspective from people who are actually working in that market would be really helpful before I make a decision this large.

I've been in EHS for twelve years and I'm starting to question whether chemical safety training actually prevents injuries, or whether it's mostly a compliance exercise that makes us feel like we're doing something.

Every year we train. Every year we document. Every year I find workers doing the same unsafe things the training told them not to do — wrong PPE, improper storage, no SDS review before handling new products. The information seems to evaporate the moment they walk back to their workstation.

I've tried different formats: classroom, toolbox talks, online modules, hands-on demonstrations, scenario-based training. Nothing sticks for more than a few weeks. I'm starting to think the problem isn't the delivery method — it's the fundamental gap between knowing something is dangerous and believing it applies to you personally.

Experienced workers are often the hardest to reach. They've handled chemicals for decades without incident and genuinely believe they're immune to the hazards. That kind of reinforced behavior doesn't change in a two-hour session.

Is there research or real-world experience on training approaches that produce sustained behavior change — not just short-term knowledge retention?

Want to bring my own ergonomic chair. Do serviced offices allow this or do you have to use their furniture?

All of the high paying careers end up stressing me out and leading to burn out.. well not all but most of them I did. UIUX, sales etc. I have been in a careers rutt for while now and now looking to learn and get into more easy work but still pays okay enough to live off of. Any recommendations?
