Advice/opinions please!!! |
 Not_A_Megalomaniac |
Well I've been thinking. Dangerous, yes, but also quite helpful. I have now come to a decision over what I would really LIKE to do re: careers, jobs etc.
Comedy writing is the AIM. If I work hard enough at it I know I can do it.
Temping is horrid and I don't want to do it anymore. However, the skills and experience I have picked up with temping may help me in a venture that keeps swimming round my head.
I am a secretary and I am a fast, skilled and damn good typist.
I will simply set up a business where people send ME typing and I do it for them.
Audio, copy typing, reports, letters, memos, Powerpoint presentations, medical reports, manuscripts - you name it, I'll type them. They simply pay me handsomely for my precious time, the tax man takes a few bob off me, and everyone's happy. Hours to suit, if I don't get on with the boss I'll discuss giving myself a raise to make me work harder. No chance of me sacking myself and I'll have no problems with getting on with my colleagues.
I know it's risky and it may not work, but I know I could do it and do it well AND because I'm only a person on my own and not part of a company I know I can undercut similar businesses and still make myself a tidy profit.
All I will need is letterheaded paper, a laptop, a printer, a coupla audio transcription machines, broadband at home and ten of the fastest fingers in the west!!!
Send out a whopping mailshot to businesses all around the country and before I know where I am, I'm in business!!!!
What do you think? Is it a stupid idea? Is it feasible? Can I do it? Am I just a loony who needs to be locked in a padded cell for thinking silly thoughts?!
You know where the comment button is - let us know what you think!!!!!!!!
Mood - Indecisive... or am I?!
Music - Nowt. |
| Edited - Never |
