i just want to preface this by saying that i personally feel i'm making by far enough, but i just wanted to hear some opinions. i have the option of moving to another salon but am leaning towards staying where i am!
i've now been grooming at this private salon for over half a year. i like working there, it's very clean and i think the prices are great (100 bucks per hour worked on the dog)
currently, i work 3 days a week. i'm a college student, so i take fridays and weekends.
while i could do more, i average around 5-6 dogs a day, and the commission is 45%. all said, i end up taking home at least 500 dollars a week (after tax) and not including tips (usually around 100 a week).
if i do the math, and accounting for missed weeks, let's say i end up with around 24-ish k a year. i feel this is pretty great for 3 days a week and am reluctant to leave this salon despite the new place offering me a job being run by a friend of mine. the other salon offers 50% commission, but the prices are lower. i'm unsure whether to take the leap or not! would love to hear some thoughts.
