With revenues b/w 100-900k I m wondering why you want a job at this point in your life? Are profit margins really low? Are you selling the business? If I m looking at you as a potential hire, I would first ask those questions

It's steadily declined from a peak of $900k, so this year will be $100k. Correct, margins are not great. I don't plan on selling the business, but mostly because no one would buy it. If I thought I could turn the business around to the point of being a healthy one-man shop, I would definitely not consider looking for a job. But familial obligations require a steady income.
