Man I look back on those days of working for a corporation with mixed feelings. As a sales guy, the team and the money were awesome. On the other hand, this time of year is straight fucked as I was chasing quarter or year end dollars out of people trying to go away on vacation or miss my number and risk getting fired. Not great.
Now, I own my own corporation which comes with benefits and drawbacks. All in all it was a year of growth and progress which now is harder to have snatched from me unless I fire myself.
So glad to hear you are in a good spot my friend. When leaders are there, those on the team reap the benefits so congrats on a great year, enjoy the downtime and here’s to an even better 2025.
Could you imagine how you'd feel if you fired yourself just before Christmas?! I'd say that's be grounds for unfair dismissal and you'd have to use yourself...that'd cause some complications!😂
The first half of this year was super tough, my work was hectic, complicated and stressful and the second half not as bad as that so it balanced out; I had to make a change though, and even though I'm doing similar things it's remarkable how different the last half of the year has been in a positive way. I can't complain.
All the best for your end of year and the season, and here's to a good 2025.
