I miss being a pizza delivery driver around here.  Good gig and a Superbowl 
Sunday, watch out.



I actually started doing it again when I was in the Marines to help make sure I 
didn’t get in trouble at night (plus I bought a new Camero I wanted to fix up). 
 Too bad it was the slums around that base… I knew I was out when in one night 
I had three deliveries ask for exact change with no tip… down to the penny.  I 
had to go look under my seats for pennies because I never carried them as a 
driver… and was too pissed off to give them more than they deserved back.

Thats where i hit the "grey area" our other component is contract services, 
general IT, one component of which is security cameras, we arent cost 
effective, same with smb ptp, residential IT, all that. I technically dont have 
a no compete with my employer, i signed a restrictive one with my previous 
employer, it technically did not come with the transition when we split, and I 
made a point of not doing any contract work in my name with the previous 
partner for the duration of the no compete for that very reason. but, like the 
previous partner told me when i signed it, in Illinois, all a no compete really 
does is add however much hes willing to spend in court to the cost of my startup



Ive turned down alot of side work to avoid conflict, just because i need steady 
income.



(Im doing some bragging here) Heres a funny thing that recently happened, we 
had a contract with a healthcare customer that ended up dissolving into two 
separate entities, i handled the closeout, one entity didn't care, just started 
from scratch, the other migrated. i worked with them closing out, making sure 
systems moved, applicable data wasn't lost, licenses were replaced, ended up 
being a really clean and smooth transition for the customer (they literally 
closed out on a friday as one agency, opened on a monday as another, with no IT 
glitch). I met with the owner of the IT company that took IT over for a 
closeout lunch, it ended up being a 3 hour job interview, he wanted to hire me 
on the spot. It ended up I had to decline because of my personal commitments to 
my house ( I bought the one across from my parents, so i could help them age 
out until they die)



Another of our customers who has always been a pseudo support contract I could 
never get closed because every time I handed it off to our customer service, 
they would screw it up has always asked me to handle their IT off the cuff. I 
always had to decline because of my stupid loyalty to my company.



We recently lost that client to the same IT outfit that took over that split 
contract. The client called me one day to do some closeout, then all of a 
sudden told me he had a message from the other IT outfit telling me they would 
cover my relocation if id come over to them. Made me feel kind of tall.



This is where that grey area screws me, I have no issue ITing out for anyone, 
my only rule is I wont outsource to anyone my employer has touched in any way. 
I screw myself because I have a good reputation and the majority of what would 
be my target market has come to us, for me, but declined because of the final 
details by ownership. I figure my hyper loyalty is karma for what i did to 
fathers daughters in my younger years.

You should really look at doing security camera installs. I did some when I

number of businesses are OK with getting it done outside of standard work
hours to not affect their operations.

You could do it by yourself or as a subcontractor to another outfit, but

With the nature of this wisp gig, I have to take on work with a bigger outfit 
that can absorb a short staff. I used to cook at a bar 15 or so years ago, so I 
was talking to this lady this weekend, but we came to an agreement id just come 
in and learn her menu, and be available since they cant have me calling in at 
the last minute cause some grain elevator got hit by lightning. A good example, 
I was out from 10 to 230 last sunday night replacing a croaked CTM with a set 
of syncinjectors, and since I was up there i cleaned up the spiderweb of 
cables. my wisp boss liked that, but if i had been scheduled to cook in a 
kitchen, they would have had to close their kitchen early without a cleanup, 
not really fair to that small business either. I dont show up at walmart, they 
just stock the next day. I watch those fuckers stock shelves though, they 
irritate the hell out of me, I watch them push product back to make room for 
new, and they dont face it. Probably best I got too irritated by the

Walmarts around here have been cutting back on staff lately.  Self checkout, no 
greeters.  I don’t mind self checkout at Home Depot, it’s a pain checking your
