Enjoying My Liberating Work Week!
Enjoying My Liberating Work Week! What does time mean to you? It means freedom to me. Time is the greatest currency we humans have to trade, sadly most of us do not understand the value time has, and we trade 40+ hours of our time to our boss, and party up the rest of the […]

I Got Soaked
I Got Soaked This a soliloquy about a rather catastrophic day in my earlier days of renewing Water Heaters. Young Ian Thompson (Me) was eager to please and ready to get his business off the ground.

Salvation Through Water Heaters
Salvation Through Water Heaters I’ve always been a bit handy with tools and DIY repairs but more than that, the frequent disposal and replacement of appliances disgusts me.

“White Collar” Is a Lie
“White Collar” Is a Lie The first question I get is why I’m wasting my Mechanical Engineering degree on performing a seemingly low-status home service. Answer? Because IT IS BETTER!! This has been my experience working for 7 years in Engineering… Ask anyone who works in engineering or in an office environment in general how […]

Is it because I’m used to face-to-face dealings with clients, and now I don’t see all the faces reading this behind my screen?
