Greetings from the Self Employed

If you have listened to the radio or watched late night television at all in the last 20 years then you must know that working from home is THE THING to do. It's so great that you should send some money to the infomercial guy to show you how to do it!

What infomercial guy didn't tell you about working from home is that work never seems to end. Sure, you can work in your pajamas and that sounds great! It also means that soon you begin to associate wearing pajamas to being at work. Not to mention: eating, showering, watching television, reading, sleeping; they all become associated with work. In fact, work seems to never go away and soon you hate being at home because that is where all that golly dander work is waiting for you.

I have been a small business owner for almost seven years and I worked out of my home until January of this year. I now have a very small office and it is GREAT! Infomercial guy should have a program that teaches us work at home folks about getting the heck out of your house to go to work! "Are you tired of working from home where the work never seems to end? Then rent an office and walk away from work when the work is done! Or walk away from work when you are tired of working! Now the couch is for relaxing, not taking business calls! The kitchen table is for meals, not of piles of blueprints, bills and invoices! You won't get ulcers every time the phone rings, just ignore it! Call now and pay $19.95 for our guide on How to Rent an Office, CALL NOW!!!"

Being Self Employed
is no magic bullet to success and happiness either but I will save that one for later.
