What other Biz would you go into if you left Carpet Cleaning?

[Papa John]

I love this Biz.. But often dream of other gigs.

In the States: I Think Alternative energy type biz would be cool.

In Thailand: A "counterfeit" Hooters Bar/Restaurant where the patrons could.....

 

[Mikey P]

a pay by the pound Nacho restaurant.


thee big plate of chips are "free" but all the slop is $20 a pound.

 

[dgardner]

Oh man I love nachos.... now I'm hungry.

 

[Ralph Pastorelli]

Home inspections or appraisals

Couldn't you hire someone while u go to school part-time to renew your credentials?

 

[Desk Jockey]

Iron man or some other super hero.

 

[TimM]

I would probably start a Carpet Cleaning Forum. I heard there is easy money in those....

 

[Mike Draper]

A potato farmer in idaho. I honestly love drving around those big tractors all day with my dog by my side listening to the radio. Dont have to deal with public. Got all sorts of different tools to hook up to the tractor. Its like a big tonka truck toy for adults.

I thought you had a side business smugling folks over the boarder?

 

[ruff]

An immigrant from a third world country.
But, I've already accomplished that.

Otherwise judging by the number and quality of posts, representing available nap and leisure time- I'd consider becoming a professional Richard Chavez.

Not the amateur one from a small far flung city in Kansas.

 

[dgardner]

I would be a TM manufacturer - how hard could it be?

 

[jwfoulk12]

I have a small used car lot as a side biz. I've always liked messing with cars. If I left cleaning though I'd wanna take it to the next level and deal mainly in high end cars.

Teach English on the Internet.

 

[idreadnought]

be a pest guy. Name it something clever like gecko pest control

 

[mirf]

Open a paint store right down next to the big boxes. Better product, better service, open 1/2 hour earlier.

I've always thought the term "pest control" was too accommodating, like an admission of a truce instead of a war.

How about something with Hired Killers in it?

 

[Becker]

flipping houses, or contractor, guide service, Ubber

 

[Hoody]

A carpet cleaner again..... oh wait...

I'm 51. Do you know how old I would be by the time I finished schooling, and got my degree? Shit, I doubt I'll even live that long!

Take care,
Lisa

 

[Shane Deubell]

Honestly dont care, any service business is fine by me. All the same...

Next time though its going to be in a warm climate, the hell with this weather.
Hopefully within 3 years max

 

[jwfoulk12]

Define "Small"..

Around 10 cars at a time. I mainly got into it so I can drive and ride whatever I want. I get bored with the same vehicle pretty quick.

 

[steve_64]

professional viola player

if my dad had bought me one when i asked my life would be so much different now.
but then i may not have met genny so im good now.

 

[PrimaDonna]

I would go back to what I did before joining John...training and consulting. Really doesn't matter the subject, I was doing it for early childhood education. Not sure that I'd go back to that field though. Maybe I'll transition in to training and consulting in this industry someday, that would be pretty cool.

Other than that, I'd like to own a restaurant. Have one in mind...just waiting for them to franchise so I can get in on it.

 

[daniel@procarpet]

Locksmith. 10 times more profit than carpet cleaning.

 

[J Scott W]

Teacher if I could find a place that paid well. That being unlikely, research in applied physics. I could enjoy it even if it did not pay as well.

 

[Jeremy N]

[Willy P]

Sheep herder or an apprentice astronaut.Except for that friggin Mario.
