Gentlemen's Club!
I opened a full nude gentlemen???s club... How is that for a leap!
I always love being underestimated and I don???t think you can get a better example of that then looking at the faces people make when they find out that their ???propeller cap??? wearing IT guy commands a stable of 20 beautiful exotic dancers. The funnier part is that I don???t generally tell anyone about it; others seem to do it for me.
I have my computer controlled video, lighting, and sound system, Point of Sales, website, and local network to keep me in the IT world. I can also, should I chose to do so, control that entire club from my Office computer and/or iPad. I love numbers so I decided to bypassed the heavy accounting software for good old fashions Excel . After 12+ years of serving internal customers for large and small companies, I can apply my customer service experience in ways that are not traditionally grasped in that industry. Moreover, I also find my guests (customers are people who come and go, guests are people who stay and want to come back) are far easier to interact with than just about any other executive or department member I have ever supported. Best of all, all I put into it, the blood, sweat, and extensive amount of time, it all comes back to me; not the company that barely shows any appreciation or may one day lay me off to ???reduce their budget???.
It???s definitely not something I would recommend for everyone but if you are one of the few, and you can do it right, it can really be a positive move for you; not always for your career if you get the wrong hiring manager.
