Mindel,
What kind of business?
Pet sitting and dog walking. I'm tired of the corporate world and want to enjoy the outside a bit.
Man, I envy you for that. Srsly. I wish I could come up with something similar.
I've been working in this industry since 6 weeks after I graduated. 10 long, miserable years. I've made a lot of money, sure, but I've just gotten to the point where I can barely stand to get out of the bed in the morning knowing I have to come here and work myself in to a stress coma so the stockholders of international corporation that owns the holding company that owns this company can make just a little more money next year.
That, and I'm just done with sitting on my *** for 10-12 hours a day. My thighs look like wet, lumpy leather and my back and neck are always sore from hovering over a computer.
It's time for a bold step in to a brave new world where I can see the sun and feel the air, where there are no pantyhose and no one ever says "core competencies" with a straight face.
