Its a shame that everyone, even some companies, are not honest and upfront about the real costs involved in operating their business. Many offer a very low start-up price, only to reveal later a monthly on-going cost of hundreds of dollars or more. This lures people in, sure, but what is their retention rate? Dishonesty & manipulation will always backfire in the long run.

Since I have recently started a new business, which is such a drastic change from my former job, some might think that I lowered my standard or um how should I say.... well, I went from being a Restaurant Manager to a House Cleaner. I guess SOME people would think blah blah blah but I liked that you pointed out that it doesn't matter what other people think. Is it my dream job? Hmm maybe! I was miserable as a manager. Oh yeah, there were good moments and wonderful customers but I was more unhappy with the job than not. As a housecleaner I get to hang out with the funniest person I know......Me haha. I like the alone time. I like getting a workout. I like working in different places everyday. And I love making things pretty and spotless. I get a satisfaction out of it. Now, is it my dream job? I'm not sure, only because I haven't really thought about what else I would like to do. My ONLY problem with doing this for a living is not being in the best of shape and feeling the effects at the end of the day. But then again, its like working out at a gym, if you are sore the next day you know you did some good.<br />All in all, I am, at the end of my day TIRED BUT HAPPY, which is great for me.Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08150278005695339874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807899720675421125.post-56064019981095993922011-04-18T23:08:41.931-05:002011-04-18T23:08:41.931-05:00Thanks, Tanya!Thanks, Tanya!mspillmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01076093907576855661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807899720675421125.post-68523054260590227942011-04-18T22:26:35.046-05:002011-04-18T22:26:35.046-05:00Mike I truly appreciate all the effort you put int...Mike I truly appreciate all the effort you put into these messages.

I think that when we are going along great and healthy (physically and mentally) then we should seek out those who could use our strength and/or wisdom to help them. I hope to someday be able to help others with my experiences.

Just a few short weeks ago I was staring at my unemployment check with a notice stating that it was my last one. I started to panic and worry. We have a mortgage, bills etc. I had no idea what I was going to do to generate money. "Well spank my booty and call me happy" somehow I came up with the cleaning houses idea and knew I would love that. Why had I not thought of that sooner? I have no idea. But here I am working hard, making ok money and feeling proud. I am on an up. It is still a struggle; life is a struggle but I made it through the spin cycle. I am still trying to prepare for the next cycle and Mike is giving me excellent advice. Friends, We will all make it through somehow (sounds like Mike's voice huh).Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08150278005695339874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807899720675421125.post-89239905303253069752011-04-07T06:33:13.307-05:002011-04-07T06:33:13.307-05:00As always, great points, Tanya!

Just before our last HS reunion (i did not attend) I befriended some people from school and also some from my work (closed). One thing I had to do was get rid of the ones with the potty mouths or the ones that were just so negative because it really does affect me. We really are impacted by what we are surrounded with good and bad. Thanks Mike!

If for instance the news reported "good" things then it might not be so bad but we are only told the dramatic and unnerving.<br />It is also very easy to get sucked in while tuned into a 24 hr news network. One good example in which I am sure many many parents can relate to is being stuck to the news channel and watching all there is to watch about the Iraq/Afgan War when they have a child serving there. My mom did this and she went gray in 2 years.<br />I dont watch the news, in fact I dont watch much tv unless I am cooking dinner. There are just too many other things to do.Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08150278005695339874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1807899720675421125.post-4139475980184600342011-03-23T21:40:19.360-05:002011-03-23T21:40:19.360-05:00AWESOME!
