Default Re: I know the feeling

I live in a high UNemployment area. Men whose families were loggers for years are now having to look for other ways to earn a living.

I know a lot of these guys so I try and come up with programs that takes little cash to get going and has the potential to earn them 10 times what they would be earning cutting down trees.

Deck Renewal and Oil Stain Removal for 2 recent examples.

I put the programs together AND even go out and get them their first few jobs BUT...for some reason they just will NOT even try to get jobs themselves. I do not know what the heck scares the bejeebers out of people as to "Selling" something.

All they have to do is drop off some flyers and they'll get calls....or just simply ask the people where they just finished a job (that I got for them)...if they can give a name of a friend or relative who might want to have similar work done.

Simply pick up the phone and CALL! Ya think they'd do that? No way Jose!

They want ME to make the phone calls and get the jobs.

Maybe their genes tell them that they are ONLY to "take orders"...do NOT initiate anything on your own...you might fail.

Who knows. Whatever it is...they refuse to even try and get jobs on their own.

Such is the mind of the "working class"...I guess.
