[@elderlypoodle9181]

It’s a tough job. More stressful than most think. 😟

[@nitajay8824]

elderly poodle why is it stressful?

[@Hripija]

@@nitajay8824 not taking too much flowers as that might lead to a lot left and loss, having new flowers all the time, following everything from weather to events as they have an impact on how much flowers people buy, dealing with costumers, learning different flowers and how they react, learning new skills all the time to stay revelant, paying attention to produce expense changes as red rose prices skyrocket near Valentines day. Just a lot of minor things to pay attention to. And being on foot basically all day, every day

[@joyceflowershed]

Being a florist I agree whole heartedly with you.

[@allisontolbert1141]

And just physically demanding. Its definitely very hard on the body. Heavy lifting and cutting and constantly moving until you get home. Sometimes without a break.

[@tinacomputer]

I like your floral shop . I do my floral business out of my apartment. I would like to do with my floral business. The flowers are so fresh an colorful its nice to see a black own floral shop wonderful

[@lunairies]
