“Nobody wins by quitting.”
No we just get beat to death and die of a stroke.
Besides, we can’t quit.
Or lose most of our hair gain 40 pounds get an ulcer and watch years of excruciating work go up in flames as the biggest screw-ups of all line up to get their billion dollar bailouts while we get kicked in the nuts. It wouldn't be so bad if I hadn't been through this once already. After 9-11 my aircraft parts manufacturing business lost all of its work. We got zero dollars in grant or loan money from any governmental agency during the entire 9 years of our operation. Meanwhile the airlines who only had a small decrease in customers got 15 Billion as a bailout and not a dime of it trickled down to us.
I guess it is time for me to grab my ankles again for sacrificing the easy life to create jobs and pioneer new manufacturing technology. BOHICA!
It is just sad that this is the second time my wife is getting dragged through it, and now I've got two little ones also. I'd like to be an inspiration to my kids to chase their dreams, but I might just only end up proving to them that 'No good deed goes unpunished!'
