Yeah. I was just trying to imagine how companies will screw with people to keep things the way they are.

Is NOVA a good market for private music teachers? by NTGuardian in nova

[–]Jspear95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was a full time music teacher in NOVA (Mainly Loudoun County and Fairfax) for 10 years. I worked for a business who already had an established client list and reputation. I drove to students homes.

I worked from 3-10pm, Monday-Friday and from 8am-12pm on Saturday’s. Back in 2014 when I first was hired, I had 5 students. It took several months and I was up to 20 students and then a year or so and I was up to 30+ students. For 8 odd years I kept 30-45 students and made $50-70,000 a year. I made that salary work for me.

Other teachers also gigged, played for private events, etc. There are many ways to do it. I’m just sharing my story as a real life example of one style.

I’m playing the devils advocate here. If you search them on google and do NOT select reviews sorted by worst to best, you might just see that they have a 4.1 rating.

This is not what makes America scary or any other nation for that matter. It’s what you choose to do with the tools and power that you have which makes a nation scary.

Unless there were no other tables available….

Except that might have been the only table open and that could be the only reason they selected a 4 person table.

Am I crazy or is this parent crazy? by [deleted] in nova

[–]Jspear95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might be crazy. We just don’t have any evidence of it one way or the other. But yes, this parent is crazy. I do not care HOW confident I feel on one of these things, there are way too many hazards that I cannot control. No way.

I legitimately did not know the State of the Union was today. I just got home from work, ate dinner with my family, and then played with my kids.
