Business update

So, here I am, sitting in my own office writing the blog update.
Well, the fact of being a business owner AND director makes me happy. It seems like I was born for this kind of work - walking around proudly, with this bold "who's in charge here? I'm in charge here!" look on my face. Firing people for a mere fact of not kneeling at my arrival! Making huge piles of money by my employees' hardwork, sweat and sometimes even blood!

Allright, I'm just kidding.

To tell you the truth, I didn't think it is that hard to rule the business. When I used to work on the employer, I could take a break at any time, with no inner feeling of being wrong. Now I feel sorry if my day wasn't as effective as possible. Alas, that happens almost every day now.

Heck, even the picture of myself sitting in the office is not that ideal.

First of all, this office is not mine actually. I pay the rent for it.
Yes, I know that's a normal practice. However, the rent is going right out of my business funds, and it makes me nervous. Nervous enough to get my ass from the sit and go out seeking clients.
..hmpf, it seems like this is a good side, actually ;)

The second thing is that there is a bunch of workers now. These workers are working.. working on a work.. to get the payment.. in money. (Alas, this joke is not that funny in English)
So, they build a fake wall here, to divide the office space in two halves. One half will be ours, and the other half will accomodate a web design agency.
And while this work goes on, there is a lot of noise, dust and discomfort. If you ever played Pizza Tycoon, you should remember the visitor asking: "Are you in a middle of redecorating?"
Yes, we are.

So I can't invite anyone here, and when someone calls and asks if he can get his computer to my office so that we would fix all the bugs and problems he's got - I cannon say "yes, we'll be happy to meet you here". I have to say "oh, I'm terribly sorry, but we're having a bunch of noisy workers here, and a lot of dust, so your computer can easily get a pile of dust in it's cooler and break down".
What's more, I even cannot talk over the phone sometimes, when they make those holes in the walls.

Running your own business is so much fun.
