I have been working on getting my business started for years now. And, although I get support, people really don’t help unless I ask and I don’t feel I should have to do that. Not all the time anyway. Especially when they know what I’m doing. So, this gripe is about people who get involved…

Good Service is Hard to Find
I requested information from an institution for my research on January 10, 2011 with a deadline date of April 15, 2011.

I’m still eyeballing Chicago Magazine,…

People are Soooooo Unreliable
I gave someone two mini-DVs to edit for me early April. Do you know I still don’t have the completed work yet? I called the person to return my mini-DVs this weekend. That was ridiculous. And yes, I could have put a time stamp on it but I figured that this was business and I…
