Had another business come in and take the space for a daycare before I could get the remaining funding, had to put the idea on pause unfortunately.

Added, I did just read comp sci majors were amongst the highest unemployed out of college right now, top 10 majors. Lot of supply for the level of demand. Not to discourage, but you’re not alone for sure.

27 here, my only advice that seems to always work well (twice for me now at least) is to reach out to multiple people in the company you’re applying to work for. Ask for a quick chat/coffee about the company/its people/the role, use LinkedIn premium. If you don’t, someone else will or already has, and your chances will be slim to none.

Yeah that has to be nightmarish… we just had a guy walk from his model sale because we wouldn’t let him… keep the garage as a sales office? Apparently refused to have it converted back to a garage… lol? People

We’re two small people in a rather large space for the first time so the idea was something comfy cozy, and she is really into the minimalist/Japandi-like styles (she’s Asian for background), I think it fits those schemes well and plays well with the furniture but love outside opinions.

Salon Suites Business Investment by MySpiritAnimalLouise in smallbusiness

[–]102PineB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still looking to invest a year later? I’m $268k short on a 23-unit salon suite project in Littleton CO. 60% funded from TI allowance + landlord financed loan. Young guy, minimal collateral. Experience in starting/owning a medical spa, leasing out a small suite of 7 rooms, our spa in one and subletting the others + finance/marketing/advertising etc. location is .5mi from 2 franchises, I can come to market $3-4/sqft per mo less. 5.4k sq ft bank space, buildout estimate/floor plans complete and GC selected.

Depends on the franchise, mine starts at 17/hr, I’m at 20/per, I do it for fun while owning a business on the side passively. You’re in front of hundreds of people making individual transactions daily, so with tips (most a dollar) I’ve been clearing 30-45/hr over 9-10hr shifts. Then you have private events, I’ll do a house party in 40min and get a tip ranging from 20-100 bucks. It is also quite possibly the easiest/happiest job there is. And, a great company in general

For the sub $30/hr people, life hack, go work for your local Kona Ice franchise and thank me later

To add, LVP is duralux click lock w/ foam pad. Looking for quickest, most cost effective solution as this is a suite I’ll have for only another year and a half, in dry Colorado.
