I'm hoping I won't have much time for posting for a while.  Why do I say that?  Well, nearly two weeks ago I was fired from my job.  Not because of the economy, just because the owner and I didn't get along well and he finally decided to get rid of me.  No worries, though, I was fully expecting it and was already planning on quitting before long.  In fact, the day Bob (not the owner, that coward wouldn't fire me himself) showed up to fire me, I laughed. laugh.gif  I quite literally got a kick out of the whole thing.



Now, for the good news (or is it, the other good news?).  I'm now holding in my hands (well, I was a second ago before I put them down to type this message), the documents making me the proud new owner of an onsite PC repair business.  I'm buying the name, the customer database, the phone number and everything else that goes with it.



That's right, I am now self-employeed. yahoo.gif yahoo.gif yahoo.gif yahoo.gif



Actually, this emoticon may be more appropriate.  beta.gif beta.gif beta.gif

Oh, very sad to hear that you won't stay! sad.gif

But it is glad to hear that you have got a new and better way for your life! biggrin.gif

I am sure this is not 'Calm before storm', but it is 'Calm and sunny'.

Let me wish you a bright future with great fortune! clap.gif

Well, going on 6 weeks now, and business has been booming. It's slowed down a bit over the past two weeks, but that's normal for the computer business when the weather starts getting nice. It's the bad weather that drives people inside onto their computers and brings me more business. smile.gif

Hope your summer is better than ours, ours was complete and utter Four Letter Word Starting With "S", hence I'll be heading to Europe for 7 weeks starting June.
