Small Business is Rarely Boring
Yesterday was one of those days when the plans never quite matched reality. We had both had a full-on day on Monday and yesterday we both just wanted to be in coast-mode but of course that was never going to happen.
First we got the chance to pick up a monster of a computer that we could use as a server for our home office. So it came home and my office got some of the tidying that I talked about earlier and I spent quite a few hours re-organising cables, connections, peripherals and rubbing my head every time I banged it on one of the legs of my desk.
Then there was the urgent work that came in from a regular client who wanted us to “write a few words about …”. Whenever I see him use that term in an order I know that what he really means is “here is several days worth of work and I need it yesterday”
Oh well computer technician, networking guru and systems administrator one day and text writer the next - life in this small business is rarely boring and flexibility is the key to staying sane
