I know quite a few of you were waiting for today to choose to either stick your course or make big changes in your business plans.



In your minds it was Obama and his actions that have caused your communities to not use your services like they did in the glory days.







So now what?

I live in the section8 capitol of the world. In L.A.county lancaster sheriff station is the busiest palmdale's number 2. alot of petty crime . Section 8 has to have thier carpets cleaned for inspection so regardless I stay busy.

I only hope gangs and drive by's dont start up we havent had that yet. I have heard the Obama care might put a few local business under around here will see! The key is dont hire full time! so much for great jobs.

Being a premium priced cleaner isn't easy in any economy.


Now that people have had the excuse and time to shop around some, a few or many have found out that they can get a service NEARLY as good as your 20 step, 20 flow, 20 cent more a foot offerings..



and are not coming back!




You've had time to prepare..



lets hear you action plan.

It's not your vote that counts , but your prayers that count. Makes no difference who wins but how you pray for him who wins.

The country has doubled down on the Obama Administration. I vow to double down on having fun. My very first action this morning was to purchase tickets to the Zappa does Zappa show next month!

Business Plan????? Never been this busy.....slammed! The more high-tech "things" go, the more people want low tech relationships with the people they do biz with. Relationships over low price, just about every time!

Be brave comrades

I believe this was a serious attempt by Mikey to start an intelligent thread to discuss a real and pressing issue facing us all. Unfortunately, to this point, we haven't had the necessary cognitive resources available for this discussion.

Wrong...your tax liability is about to explode, fasten your seat belt!

just keep your nose to the grind stone and take each situation as they come........just like I have been doing since day one...

you can control it..or you can allow someone else to....are there going to be changes...??....probably...but the strong are going to work with them and keep moving forward....the weak are going to allow them to dictate there every move................

Well then, you go first, Mr. Sutley...

PS Actually, up till now I think the Gold Medal should be shared between Jim and Ashley who both basically said, "It makes no diff who is in office. All we can do is work hard, And enjoy life as much as we can."

I find it interesting that when an entrepreneur does poorly in business he or she often blames the president, the economy, the recession, their competition and/or the fact that "people just aren't spending money these days". Meanwhile, other business owners operating in the same industry/market are doing great and they never credit these outside forces for their success.

The widespread expansion of the use of cheap laminates and household "steam" cleaners has chopped out some of the market cleaning on the low end. A renewed appreciation of high quality hardwood and hard surface choices has chopped out some of the high end carpet market.

The commercial market has been similarly impacted by cheaper "maintenance" systems.

We just have to anticipate, zig, and zag better. The sky may soon fall, but this isn't it yet.

In terms of my business, no it doesn't matter who is the president, but when it comes to the health and direction of OUR country it makes a huge difference. This difference will eventually have an effect on all of our lives and businesses.

My wife asks me this morning "What are we going to do?" I told her keep moving forward and prepare. If anyone thinks Obama being elected was a good thing go look at the market this mornig. It has already dropped 176 points and falling like a rock. Lock and Load folks this is going to get ugly

If Obama was a proud white american with pedigree papers and slightly more translucent puppets strings you'd all be hootin and hollerin up a different tree.

Absolutely the most ignorant f'n statement ever from our fearless leader. I consider being called a raciest a personal slap in the face. To insinuate color trumps philosophy WTF! Herman Cain got five times the cash from me that Romney got. I would have voted Cain over any white liberal.

the first one to cry about being labeled as a racist is usually the worst of them all.



If Obama had a nice normal white sounding name like "Sidney Poitier or Denzel Washington" and didn't have all these ties to non christian b(l)ack grounds he would have killed the Mormon even worse.

Wow John, so now you vote by the daily gyrations of the stock market.
And I thought that you were just a principled ultra conservative.

The market would have gone down regardless of the president. Maybe a short lived bounce for Romney followed by going down.
And yes, buckle up, it is going to be a rough ride. There are a lot of big and important issues that will need to be tackled. All of which were mostly ignored by both campaigns. Issues that have been kicked down the road by many administrations Democratic and Republican alike.

If you thought that Romney could have insulated the US from the rest of the world economy, you're far more naive than I thought.
I guess the comfort for you John in Romney loss, will be to blame it all on Obama. Maybe you should consider that what lost him the election, even though the economy is not doing that good (does not commonly happen) is his attempt to appease the far right of his party. The country does not want far right.

Your distress is noted though. Nothing that buying a few more guns won't cure :winky:

are you talking about the out of state sales tax?

that went into effect two years ago out here.


I'm over it.





As a Californian, I'm so use to getting F'd in the a$$ as a businessman it would take Mitt's big head up yonder to get me to flinch.

LOL Ofer...The real world knows voting Obama back in was a huge mistake. Obama won by playing class warfare..well guesss what...it isn't going to hurt the haves (and we are by far not one of them) but it will absolutely crush the have not's. I pray it doesn't but the smart people pulling their money out of the market is only the beginning. It really should scare the shit out of you Ofer. You live in a bankrupt stake that more people rely on the government then anywhere. Just what do you think they are going to do when the government is not longer able to hand out free shit? Well just look at the history of california..The Watts and King riots are gonna look like a school yard fight in comparison...

P.S. You guys just told anyone with the means to leave to get the f' out. How in the world that passed is beyond comprehension.
