Mal ,'The Train Job'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I was thinking it would be fun to send out notes that all say, "you owe us money. pay."
Dear Customer,
As of the first of this month, your account balance stands at $302.64. You are in excess of thirty days past due on payment. Please remit as soon as possible to bring your account up to date.
Nice business you have there. Shame if something...*happened* to it.
Sincerely,
Vito "The Hammer" Aglione

Now if you could only get it to the point where the various projects only demand a reasonable amount of time in any one day ... something less than 16 hours, say ....
Then you need to get to the point of hiring assistants, while you sit around smoking cigars in top hat and tuxedo tails, when you're not carrying around big bags with dollar signs on them, filled with money....
Happy birthday, Sox!
~ma to Nora, Tom and Tom's mom.
I CAN haz iPhone! It is charging right now! SQUEEEEE!
I don't even have a regular cell, and I'm still drooling. Good for you, GC.
"Dear" Customer:
No, I will not give you a password to the Members Only section of our web site; you're not a member. And no, we will not send you an electronic version of the document you somehow got in 1999 - we didn't sell them in electronic format then. You want a version you can distribute to your 100+ staff people? Pay for it.
Signed,
"Customer Service" since you can't bring yourself to acknowlege either my name or my position

You know, I don't really have a problem with the long days, and currently I take about 2 months off a year. My hope is that I can step up the big projects, which also have much better pay, and up my time off to 3-4 months of the year. We'll see how that goes, but it's the current pipe dream.
Then you need to get to the point of hiring assistants
This is also part of the plan. As it is I've been handing a lot of my smaller projects off to Sean and a few other folks. If I can get my rental business to grow a bit more then it might make sense to have someone on part time to run that as well.
I have this vision of ND and his all-Buffista crew.

Hey! Don't forget the monocle!

...dressed as pirates.
No, no - KILTS! or maybe pirates wearing kilts. and corsets.
But then they'll all be too busy spanking each other to get any work done.
