Actually, retrenchment is GOOD !!! If there is no retrenchment, I will be worried.... Who the FUCK said that ?

Never mind. Serious speaking, if one takes the retrenchment positively, it will do more good. I take it positively in 2002, I was retrenched during SARS. When 911 occurs, our sales dipped for the month of October and November but bounced back in December so I was lucky for a few months. When SARS hits, the effect was felt and I was retrenched. I was angry and lost for a while, went for a few interviews without much success, I decided to something on my own.

Even though the economy now has slowed down, but my business is still ok. Hard work, perseverance, and honesty will go a long way. Of course, your skill and knowledge must be better or on par with your competitors.



In a short one week, I received 3 of my friends calling me to keep a lookout for jobs.

They have been retrenched !

How to survive? :mad:

Good for you. There is nothing like being your own boss.

Thank you,

To put it on the record, it is the situation (economy and personal traits) that makes me take the road to be my own boss. I did plan for it long ago but did not materialize as I was enjoying being a employee with very good pay, free travel, and good food. There are lots of sacrifice to be your own boss

Thank you..... I hope to make more money too !! So that, I could help the less fortunate to feed themselves. I mean the real less fortunate and not those that are stipulated by those fucking pappies !!

My dream is to have several food outlets manage by me but run by destitute where they make money from the business for their own survival.
