Just a little rant. . .

August 2009

MM: Hey, you ought to look into those new state energy laws that are about to take effect and think about expanding [Successful Existing Contracting Business] to include XYZ.

Spouse: Yeah, I'm pretty busy, and I don't know anything about that s**t.

Jan 2010

After observing that the seasonal slowdown is worse than last year and the economic slowdown might finally be hitting us. . .

Spouse: Hey, do you think getting into XYZ is a good idea? (said in tone as if this is a Brand New Idea)

***********

I like family businesses, really, I do.

Good self control on your part, MM. Most would have worked that!

At least they are paying attention and actually giving good ideas. Shout outs to those SO's who care. =)

Much rather have a vocal one then not.
