PostsInstagram 17th April 2018 1:38 PM Hi Marco, I can't talk from experience but I would think using any kind of automated comments system like this is dangerous for business in the long term. It would be much better to generate genuine interest. If you're not getting enough perhaps look at what you're posting and see if it's interesting/clever/funny enough. It's not all about sell sell sell.
When the going gets tough.... 12th April 2018 4:23 PM Funnily enough the scan this week showed the cause of the liver abscess was a burst appendix! As they can be behind the liver in young children! He must have been in a lot of pain, no wonder he was so miserable, poor thing! Career break/gaps 9th April 2018 10:27 AM Hi, just in interest, why do you need to? Are you trying to check your tax or NI paid? Your P60s and P45s will show all the income and tax paid etc so you shouldn't need payslips? When the going gets tough.... 5th April 2018 3:10 PM Oh yikes Andy and ouch!! I'm glad it got sorted! When the going gets tough.... 4th April 2018 6:51 PM ... The tough sometimes need a break! I've recently had a nightmare month. March was a virtual write off business wise, after the 10th anyway! My young son who is not even 2 yet got very ill and having already had a couple of weeks of barely any sleep whilst he seemed to not quite get over a virus we suddenly ended up in hospital. To cut a long story short, I had to spend two weeks in Coventry hospital and Birmingham Children's Hospital as he has a liver abscess, which is as bad as it sounds. We're now on home leave and visit the hospital 3 times a day for IV antibiotics. So funnily enough work had to take a backseat! It's been incredibly stressful and I'm lucky that a couple of my regular clients were very reasonable and had a lot of empathy and gave me the time I needed. I've had to face up to the fact I've missed out on some new clients, but it has been impossible to take on new work until now. We're now settled into a new routine and I feel like my brain is functioning again! So I need to make up for the downtime! Has anyone had a similar experience, if they've taken ill or had a dependent need care? It's been a real eye opener that my business is vulnerable but as a sole trader there's not much I can do about it really.
