Lol, every single time I've decided to do the painting myself........about halfway through I am regretting it big time......my body hurts, it's mind-numbingly boring (I think that's why painters have the drinking/druggie reputation... :-)

I love going out to try new drinks and try new food.

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

I am managing those and feel like I have been drinking from a fire hose. 

I appreciate a lot, hope next I´m in San Diego we can grab a drink or coffee.

If there are pets in the unit take a pan from under the sink and fill it with water so there's something to drink.

For example we take a booking, they read our zero tolerance policy on partying and noise complaints and then ask us to cancel because they are a bachelorette party and do not want any issues as they do plan to drink.

I would say your first year is just for drinking from the fire hose, even if it means taking a larger split and not earning as much commission.
