RE: Inspiring work, jobs and getting paid

I took a job once as a scab in a strike situation. I did not like it, but it paid real well and kept my family fed for the several months I had it. It was all about the paycheck.

I wrote for Adsactly for over a year. In that time I had two pieces rejected completely. One on the economics of (Steem) and the other about treating your account as a business. They weren't rejected by the editor, but the General Manager who didn't want the Adsactly account involved in the ongoing whale wars.

I've just looked. The economics post is horribly dated, but I might have to dust off the business post in the near future. I think it's a great concept.

Owning a business isn't like having a job. I've owned a couple where I was the lowest paid employee in the place. It's about hustle and grit and desire, not about the skills traded for money. Though I had the skills needed too.
