And her purpose for having a shop is to retire but let others work and earn money for her so she doesn’t have to work as ml anymore, and could focus on her own life, with boyfriend... I heard few girls complain about their boss working with them, trying to get jobs from staffs so staffs are unhappy. Also it might lead to disrespect to boss.
Totally get what you're saying and your earlier point about working privately is a good point too.
Again I should reiterate at this point it's all conjecture.
The shop I was referring to is a small shop in a suburb in the middle of nowhere. The way the owner runs it is very interesting and it seems to be doing really well for where/what it is. When I was let in on the secret it all made sense because I couldn't understand why she seemed to be doing so well.

My concern is that this industry is very incestuous, if the girls found out the owner was working somewhere else their minds might wonder whether they too should do the same. St Mary's and Cremorne rosters seem pretty stable and the girls I have met all seem pretty switched on and easy going.

Anyway, once again, all conjecture.
