Depends, but I wouldn’t bet on it. My dad owned a small contracting company, and while he took the odd afternoon off to take me to a movie or cool off when it got too hot, that was more than made up for by Saturday morning client meetings, after work lumber runs, and tons of behind the scenes planning.
