Don't get me wrong, I like the work, it just ****es me off that there are so
many who don't have a clue and either hose it up themselves, or get hosed by
the lowest bidder. *Most* of my customers don't know what it takes or what
it costs to run a business, they only know that when I ease their pain, they
are comfortable..in a lot of cases, with new customers, they are comfortable
in their homes for the first time.

That's the same in any contracting business, right? There are plenty
of people in many walks of life who share the pain. No point in
getting ****ed off about it.

Of course, on the flip side, there are plenty of people who run
businesses who think other people that run businesses don't know what
they're doing. I personally like educating people. It's half of the
fun of selling. When you're talking to someone who is a bit dubious
at the start, it's a kick to see the little light come on in their
eyes when you've taken the time to explain things to them, and you
know you've made a sale. People that don't enjoy selling and
explaining should hire someone who does.
