Thanks mate. Yeah i am definately keen upon working for myself. Just exploring the different avenues that are good to me.
If you dont mind me asking what is your business in?
I am own a mobile welding service. We perform critical welds and fabricate on job sites for other contractors.
my office is on wheels. And this brings us to the unsolicited advice segment of our program.... find something you love or at least like doing. Your chances of success are much higher than the guy that's just in it for the money. That was your free cliché for the night. I'm pretty sure I ripped that sentiment off. Is it plagiarism if you don't know who said it? Get in where you fit in and remember, when you decide what that is...."Grab Her By the Pussy" -TRUMP.
Ohh thats good its very hands on ive never really done manual work before unlike my dad who did construction and minor plumbing work. How long you been working self employed for?
Im looking more at social media marketing and looking to get my 3d printer up and running at some point as i broke the connector for the 3d printer in the learning phase so i need to get that fixed at a point.
Thanks for the inspirational words. Loooool yes i shall sure grab her 😅
If you dont mind also telling me how it all got started. I'd be curious to know how you got the whole thing to start? And what would you have changed if you had known what you do now and could start over?
So 2008 hit the US economy. I had a daughter on the way and I was a cowboy on a large cattle ranch in Osage county Oklahoma. I didn't make much money and my girlfriend and I decided to move to Tulsa (the city) in order to give our newborn a better life. I went to work hustling construction work, shoeing horses and training cow horses for income while attending a night class at a vo tech in order to get certified. Once I was proficient enough to pass a test I took a job at a plant welding on an assembly line. I liked it so I got good. Soon I was was good and didn't like the job I was working. I bought an old machine to put on a truck and went work on the side doing small projects around town on the evenings and weekends. I took a few more full time jobs to get different experiences within my industry. after three years or so of this I began contracting. It's common sense stuff so it just took off during an oil boom. The rest is history. It still gets slow from time to time and it can be a little seasonal but it's worth it to me. I do what I want most of the time and what I have to all of the time.
Don't spend too much time worried about it.... At some point you gotta look at tits and drink beer.
That's what I'd change.
