The Only Employee

It’s a slow cycle when you are trying to learn everything you can about the Internet, Search Engines, Social Media and all the rest that just creating a presence online entails.

There is no easy way to do it all at once on the job. The goal would eventually outsource some of these tasks, but if that is not yet affordable, you have to do it yourself.

Lessons Learned at Low Paying Jobs

I didn’t quit a cush job to start making money online. I did it while I was making $12 anStreetcarStrikes hour and realized the ceiling was right around $16. I am a lazy person. I refuse to work that hard for that much pay. Of course, I couldn’t refuse right away. It took two years before my efforts here started paying bills. It took the same amount of time to realize it was possible.

Now I think it’s easy. Well, maybe not easy, but achievable. And that’s all I really need to know. Just one chard of light at the end of the tunnel.

Word Salad – A Post in the Raw

Everything blends together in my mind. I haven’t figured out yet if this is normal or not. The first time I noticed this was when a boss told me to leave my personal life at home.

"Hmmmm…. Are we talking Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind or Clockwork Orange forget?"

I would have said that but he would not have gotten it.

My Home Town, The Old Meth Capital

I have come to the conclusion that every era and paradigm in history is still alive and well in one part of the world or another. Well, not every one but quite a few.

I moved from Phoenix to Kansas City and moved back in time somewhere between 20 and 50 years. Not literally of course, but it’s the feeling I get. While some of you can say older generations grew up differently and had different values, the whole mass here still lives there.

No Time To Read

I don’t know about you, but I don’t get that much time to read. I used to read all the time. Now I get eye bites. Short glimpses of paragraphs. Reading half of a book and then figuring out the rest for myself.

But I have a lot I want to read and 100% of what I am able to accomplish online is due to the fact that I force myself to continue my education at all times. I grew up in a city where a good job is in construction or a factory and assumed from the intellectual level of all the adults that I met that a brain somehow rotted after high school. I didn’t want mine to rot, so I always had at least one book I was reading.
