Money

Tuesday, March 26th, 2013

As many of you know, I do work online to help with the “extras”. Well, before it was extras, but now it is “needed” and I have been having problems with the companies that I do the work for paying me as they should. It is really getting on my last nerve too. When you do work for someone, you expect to be paid in a timely fashion, and that is not happening. Nor am I recieving any replies to my inquiries about my missing money. So my words of wisdom to those of you who do as I do, be careful who you sign up with to work for online. Research them thouroghly and make sure they do not have prior incidences with this from other people.

For work

Tuesday, March 19th, 2013

I had to order some new oxford shirts for women for work. It is part of the regular uniform and everyone needed new ones. I usually have to order them at this time of year every year and this time was no different. Every now and then, it is neccessary to order in the middle of the year but not often. This is just a part time job for me. I only have to go in twice a week to keep books and order supplies and such. I do a major inventory check once a month.

They should be in sometime next week, so in the mean time I will take care of the other orders that need to be filled. We have a lot of stuff that has run low this month. I don’t know what they do with all of these supplies, but this month is a bit rediculous. I am going to have to have a talk with the staff about this as well. They are going to have to keep a better eye on things. I realize that customers have a tendency to take some stuff, but never this much at one time. Our managers will have to keep an eye on the employees as well.

Singapore

Friday, March 1st, 2013

I have always wanted to visit Singapore and now I might get to almost free of charge. My honey has a business trip he has to take there. We will have to pay for my airline ticket, but the room and stuff is all comped so everything else is on his company. We are not sure which hotel they are going to use though. The secretary is really nice and has said that she will let me pick the hotel. I love that. I am looking at the Marina Bay Sands right now to see what they have. It has this roof top infinity pool that goes all the way across it. You can see the entire city from it. I think that is so cool, but I haven’t made up my mind yet.

There is also the Conrad Centennial Singapore Hotel that is also amazing as well. It is one of those supremely elegant hotels that is almost decadent. I have no clue which one I should pick, although the Marina Bay is looking really good, because of that roof top pool. I can see us at night looking out over Singapore at the bright lights of the city.

I did some research on Singapore and found out that they are the third wealthiest country in the world, which comes from being a financial trading hub as well as the fifth busiest port in the world. That is just amazing. I love learning about new places, but I love traveling to them even more. I cannot wait for this trip. My mom is going to come stay here with the kids for the week that we are gone. I will not have to worry about a thing here at home, because I know that mom will take care of everything.

Some new deals

Monday, February 25th, 2013

I found some new deals on social media packages. Working online gives me a little bit of a heads up on certain deals and such that most people won’t find otherwise. I have been doing this for a few years and you can never tell when something really good will pop up. Today I found something for the techies and business owners that could really come in handy. I have used a few of these kinds of services in the past and they were very helpful to me, especially when I set up web pages for businesses.

White label Email marketing can be a really useful tool for business owners. The days of snail mail are virtually gone and it is much more efficient to market your business via email and social media. I highly recommend this to anyone who intends to use the internet to boost their brick and mortar business. You will find that most people use the internet to find what they need or the place they need to buy what they are looking for.

Supplies

Tuesday, February 19th, 2013

I just finished ordering the supplies for the hotel from the Hotel Supply place. I do this for them every so often as I keep the inventory straight. Georgia Hotel Supply Online always makes it very easy to order from and I never have any problems. Sometimes, it can be a little difficult when the staff doesn’t write down what they have run out of, but I simply go through everything and take the inventory each time myself. It takes a little longer but I know that the numbers are correct.

The Hotel Bar Supplies are easier to order and there really isn’t that much to take care of and the bar staff are really on top of their job. The bar manager is really good at her job. I hope she never leaves for greener pastures. I should have everything ordered, although invariably there is something that pops up. You never know when something will be over looked, but I have a list I check off as I do the inventory so I should be good.
