Interview tomorrow! WOO! HOO!

[Hellgate]

I got a call yesterday to interview with the Comptroller for Public Accounts of Texas tomorrow! :cheer: I am FREAKING STOKED! I had only three interviews since I was laid off last October. This is a great job as the Manager of Support Staff for Administrative Hearings Sections, (Supporting the Legal Team).

When I spoke with the hiring manager yesterday she said, "I'm a lawyer, I'm not a manager, I hate being a manager, I need a good one. I'll teach you everything you need to know about law, you just need to manage the staff." I replied, "I can help you out."

So a little FZ6 Forum good karma would help! :thumbup:

Good luck Pete!

What happened to the printing business?

It is going no where fast. We couldn't find a business to buy in Austin. While I was at a training session in FL they mentioned a shop for sale in Denver, I grew up there, but the asking price is way too high and 50% of the sales come from American with Disability Signs (braille) and the Franchise doesn't support that type of work. But I would still have to pay franchise fees on that portion too.

I also can't make the numbers work. When I add a line for my SBA loan into the fix costs I end up making $20,000 a year. Also the ROI is way too long, about 4 to 7 years. That is adding in the loan costs, my 401K roll over costs, and my huge hit in salary. Now IF I can get past seven years the business becomes much better because the loan will be paid off but that is a very long time to wait.

I have a great deal of respect of Small Business owners, what a huge task.

Needless to say this has been a very frustrating year. Thank goodness for the National Guard and part time orders.

Best of FZ karma headed your way.

As a business owner may I share that a positive, can do attitude is what goes a long way during an interview.
