Two More
November 12, 2010
Two more big goals I have this year:
First, it is time for me to learn how to drive a stick. I have long felt this to be one of the more glaring omissions among my manly credentials, such as they are, and it would be dead useful in my job as a driver of various vehicles. This is the year it happens.
Second – speaking of my job driving for the family auto brokerage, I want to transition out of it. For a while now, my conscience, such as it is, has been smarting under the charge of receiving the position via nepotism. It is currently the source of about 60% of my income, however, and Rebek and I can hardly afford to give up any revenue at the moment, so my specific goal is this: by my 31st birthday, I would like to cut my dependence upon the family business in half while maintaining the same overall level of income. I have a couple of good ideas about how to proceed, and although starting businesses and hunting jobs is something I truly loathe, I am bound and determined to make the change.
