Interesting. I am a new salon owner who took over from an absentee owner. I started working 4 days a week, usually 8 hours, in the store with one day at my home office. At home I research product, advertising opportunities, bookkeeping and deposits. I open three days a week to oversee one employee specifically hired for cleaning, and close one night a week. This is my job - and as a new owner I feel I need to cover all shifts from time to time and get to know our customers.

I have a full time manager, one other nearly full time person, two part-time and one staff member who works about 12 hours a week doing the deep cleaning. This is busy season of course. During JASON I will switch the whole schedule around and cut hours.
