Someone once said to me that being in business is like a sickness, you are an oddity who cannot get along with others.


I have been driven by fear throughout my life to avoid becoming a down and out.


It is very solitary, and although you may be surrounded by people in a room one feels very much alone.


When you start a business it is as if you have created a living being, which only stays alive by your constant attention, and if you start to neglect it, it will surely die.


One curious person said "so you have a business" I replied 'no it has me'.


The results of your endeavours are counted by the size of loan you can repay for your house, office, and car.


They are a by-product of the energy and fear that have driven you through life.


One gets little or no prestige like a doctor or lawyer, you are perceived mostly as a vulgar pedlar.


I invite other members of the Self-Employed Misfits Society to add their perceptions of business and it's effects upon


their lives.

    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
    • Wholeheartedly recommend Aria. He was polite, responsive and sorted our leak, from an old tap on an old plumbing system, with no bother and on same day. 
    • GP not willing to refer you on? Say, to King's or similar. Odd
