Preferably

it depends , in lots of things I do

I prefer not to when cutting trees but I still do often

Not if you werent wearing shoes....

I've worked alone the vast majority of my working years. Most people irritate me, so it works out well.

I have worked with others my entire career. As a supervisor hands on. Something changed in the culture. Relentless entertainment of stupidity. The younger crowd knew more than the senior work force. So I retired and let them have at it. Best decision I made.

Now I work independently. Work when I want. It is fantastic. Best decision I ever made.

I have wondered if some people associate "alone" with "lonely". Not the same. When I am doing things alone, I have been known to give myself what for when I do something dumb or the light bulb comes on. Slap myself on the forehead.

I don't mind if someone is around when the chainsaw is running as long as they stay a good, safe distance away.

I don't work alone but sure wish I did, lol.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

I've had my own carpet cleaning business for 36 years now, work alone normally
