Organizing & 2 Hours . . .
Hiring anyone to come in and do a project in your home or business can sometimes be a difficult decision. You ask yourself if it’s worth it, how long will it take and especially, how much it will cost.
Like with like … that’s all I’m sayin’

Customer Service at FedEx… why I couldn’t get a quote… and an update to the story!
Interesting follow up to my FedEx/Kinko’s story! Sean Carroll, the manager, saw my blog post and gave me a call. Wanted to apologize but that wasn’t really the point.
