I don't want to work in a job that deals with psychotic, horny men all day long.
blaine: I don't think the job is full of
"psychotic horny men". Of course we all know there are a few and should be avoided at all costs. In my case most of my clients are pretty decent chaps, there's a few "unpolite ones" of course but any job working with the public you're
ALWAYS going to deal with a lot of crap, rude behaviour, horrible people etc... Any customer service person will tell you this:
Working with the public is a challenge and NOT for everybody. Being a WG is not different. When you work 9 to 5 job in sales you can mentally switch off at the end of the shift, go home "end off" and whatever you do you'll always get that same paycheck at the end of the month. But when you're self employed the amount of bullshit rises to a "whole new level", meaning: you go to sleep with the job and you wake up with the job. You need to be much more self disciplined, professional, tough and assertive than a "9 to fiver" ( a "zen atttitude" doesn't hurt either :-). By your posts it sounds like this is not for you. And there's nothing wrong with that! Your personality sounds like it's not cut for this and deep down you're hurting because of it.
And you know it.So find something that will make you happier (something that doesn't involve working with the public or giving blowjobs to strangers). You can always write on your resume that you were a personal assistant to someone (find a friend willing to back you up), or you were a nannie, or you were self employed filling computer data at home. Just use your imagination and back up your story properly in case your new boss calls asking for references (which will very possibly happen). You can also ask your government for a small loan, go to school for a couple years and learn some specific craft.
And good luck with whatever venture you choose. Look at it as an exciting "new part of your life". And never look back. Take your WG self-employed days as a good learning experience.
