Being My Own Boss

You know, with 2 school going kids, it can really be a chore to get up everyday and prepare their breakfast and getting them ready for school and then getting yourself ready for work. By the time the day is over, I'm practically dead tired. Wouldn't it be great if I could work from home, say maybe start my own business. I don't really know what kind of business I'd like to do but there are a few options on my mind :D

I've always had this dream of having my own business where I'm the boss and can work at my own pace. It would make things so much easier for me. I get to be at home and can take care of the boys needs and also work on my business at the same time. All from the comforts of my own home. No more getting up so early to beat the morning jam and then rushing home to prepare dinner and all that. It can be quite stressful, you know.

But then, setting up my own business is also not that simple. I'd have to get some home office furnitures, office suppliers and even business computers. And all those cost lots of money. I've seen some of the stuff on sale and they don't really come cheap. I guess I could always wait for when they have a sale or something. But why wait when I know of a site called OfficeDeals that lists loads of discount coupons and offer discounts on office supplies, printer ink cartridges, small business computers and business furniture that I could chose from, which would be just great if I was starting my own business. And I don't even have to wait for a sale!

These discount coupons would sure help me save a lot on the cost office furnitures, computers, chairs, inkjet cartridges and all the other related products that I would be needing. I really should go and browse in more detail at what kinds of discounts they have to offer. I'm pretty sure it's good stuff cos they have a staple of reputable merchants on their listings such as Dell, Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, Vistaprint, just to name a few. Gee, I can picture my own home office in my mind already with me as the boss :D Now that would be the life wouldn't it?

  5. Ratnariz - You've just started kan, so memang a bit slow la. You should let ppl know about it, make sure the price is right (not too high, not too low).

    Make sure your service is good. Delivery on time. I prefer good quality service anytime. Good luck and all the best to your online shop! :)
