Hello!
My name is Monica and I'm 24 years old. I'm from Norway and I'm working as an apprentice in my father's firm. I did work in another firm for 6 months, but my boss had a bad habit of screaming at me every time I did something wrong. In the end I was so depressed that I didn't want to go to work in the mornings and I wanted to quit my education. He was that bad! My father took me in as an apprentice and now I've got my motivation back. What I really want to do is make special furniture. Designing them myself and then produce them. I'm wondering if any of you are making a living out of furniture making and what furniture sell the most? I'm thinking maybe cabinets? I would love any advice you can give me! I still have 1.5 years left before I'm a carpenter, so I have some time to think about this and make some plans.
Thanks!
Monica
