Hello Hivers.
It’s not always easy to accept the fact that one needs to resume his/her workplace after the Christmas and new year holidays. This is because the celebration seems to be continued and never ends. But at the same time, we can’t just keep celebrating without making ways to make more money for another year's Christmas and new year's celebrations. This is the main reason we have to let go of the old memories of the holiday celebration and focus on new ideas to resume back to work.
The truth is that I have not really accepted to resume work based on the family and friends I meet during the holiday. But come to think of it? If I keep expecting the holidays to continue without ending how will I be able to pay my bills as a man? Yes, I have family, friends, and other issues that need to be tackled with money. If I don’t resume work as a shoe and jewelry maker, I will lose money and also lose my customers.
We all know how it feels to handle customers. Some customers can be annoyed and imagine me resuming work to start dealing with such people again after last year's experiences. I could remember how one of my customers that I made footwear nearly harassed me and my shoemaking team. The issue was that the footwear I made for her was not delivered to her on time. To that effect, the customer reported me and my shoemaking team to the husband. After she has already insulted me thinking that I’m just a shoemaker not also knowing that I’m a certified professional Librarian. If not for that I was lucky to have known the husband. I and my shoemaking team would have been arrested out of intimidation.
So with the bad attitude of some customers towards my shoe and jewelry-making business, I feel very bad to start work again and start seeing them again after the holiday. This is the main reason I feel that the holiday to continue and never end. Because the family and friends that returned for the holiday already made me keep feeling good about life. Yes, because life is good when you have people that put smiles on you all the time. But the issue is that some family and friends can keep making you happy without giving you money to settle issues. This is why I think it’s better for me to resume my shoe and jewelry-making business since the holiday is over. I need to start making my own money through my business.
My measure challenge resuming back to work as a shoemaker: Most of my shoemaking customers are students and we all know that handling students in any business setting is not always easy. Imagine that I female student who happens to be my customer just resumed back to school. She called me on phone, asking me to make footwear for her. She told me that she’ll be ready to pay me the money immediately after her parents send her money for upkeep. Now, imagine that work is just resuming and a customer has already made a proposal of owning me. Well, I hope I can cope with work again this year than my previous experiences with customers.
