It may sound impressive to be the president of a company, but for anyone in those shoes, he/she can tell you that it can be very challenging. When all is going well for the company, it is great!
Unfortunately, these days our economy continues to cause such chaos and uncertainty. Taxes and costs keep rising. Those of us who own businesses in Mecklenburg have already been hit with the news of our rising taxes on our buildings. The increase is far from nickols and dimes!!!
Utilities are rising as well, so as our overhead increases, what can we do but pass it onto our customers.
As more people lose their jobs, there are fewer people who have money to spend. Of course, a person can't earn any interest on money in banks, which makes it nearly impossible to get ahead. This equates to spending less -- if possible.
I can say that if you get into a line of work, for which you have a passion, there can be times of positive rewards. I value helping people in a job search and gain a lot of pleasure connecting them with solid business contacts. There are some companies and industries, who are doing fairly well, and there needs to be hope for more of this happening.
Still, I encourage you to support the presidents, especially of small businesses, who work hard every day to keep "the dream of entrepreneurship" alive. It is hard work, but this is what makes up the backbone of America.
