Virtual Office

Thank you to whomever commented! I do adore knowing that people read my blog. I do not have a stat counter because I know that I would be obsessively checking it, seeing who was reading it, seeing who wasn't reading it, and I just think my sanity is better off without one. But comments let me know (1) that people are in fact reading it, and (2) that someone actually cares! So thank you, whomever you are.

I have considered a virtual office. I'm still waiting (and praying) on an offer from this firm. So everyone out there, please send me positive vibes! I'd really like to work there, in addition to, you know, having a guaranteed steady income. It would ease my mind, my bills, and even allow me to either pay down my law school debt or get a place of my own.

So, I made an arrangement with a friend to have my mail sent to his office for a month in exchange for an appearance. It'll work for me. But that company with whom I had leased space has been nothing but hassles. Every single month there was issues. And when I went in today to clean out my office, I had an invoice for next month's rent asking if I was going to renew...even though I gave them notice three months ago that I wasn't going to renew, and again three weeks ago when she called to ask me. They've been unprofessional, have nickle and dimed me to death, and overcharged for everything. And when I asked them about a virtual office for the next month? They told me it would be $269. Yeah, right. To collect my mail? I told them I don't even want them to answer my phone! And he wanted me to sign a lease for 3 months. Thanks, but no thanks.

I'm just tired and have a lot of work to do. And I have a cold or touch of the flu or something and I can't think of a worse time to have it. Anyway, I'm going to rest a bit then get back to work. But thanks again for reading and for your comment!
