    rn at 35-40 clients, filled out an application for a gov loan(2% interest for founders) for 30k to go to a bigger location.

    Fraud is not a business model.

    ASSERTION 
    In my humble opinion, it depends on the goal, scale and current circumstances. Name me one salesman, no in all parts of "selling", whether its on a job application, hiring someone, the dating market, making pictures of your product where you are not using "makeup". Make the good parts better...

    Dead-End Sh*t Jobs ... Yours?

    NOTABLE! 
    I'd say the worst was working as a tile layer under the table during covid times as I couldn't work 99% of jobs due to the current laws at that time. Full day of carrying cement bags up the 6th floor, shoveling it into construction buckets etc. Actually damaged my left kneecap to the point and...
