I have been feeling very guilty lately...

And also quite worried and scared.

Work has been SLOW. Like seriously, nothing to do slow.

I almost feel guilty being here, because basically, once I get all my *tasks* done I am either blogging, facebooking or just generally surfing the web. Sure its kinda nice, not being slammed and so busy you can't take breath between the phone calls and people walking in. I would rather stay home where I can get some stuff that is always put off done!

And at the same time I am feeling guilty about sitting around here on facebook all day, I am really worried about us staying in business. We are a non-profit, so if we are slow, we are dead. I don't see how much longer we can keep going without the business level we are used to....

    that is scary.  Is there any way to stimulate the market or business response?  I know that the industry that I'm in is very slow.  I've been lucky that I'm high up enough that when they make cuts I've survived.  Because of that I do take on extra things to prove that it was a good choice to keep me.

    Luckily I am very involved in other areas than just one, so even if 1 department goes away, I should be safe, unless the whole company goes.

    Its very tough, we offer online schooling...and since our courses are tuition based, with the economy the way it is, not too many people are dropping cash on these courses.

    i feel extremely lucky.... teenage girls don't stop going to dances, no matter what the economy, neither do people stop getting married.

    and i've got very little competition so.... very lucky indeed.

    Fallyn - very lucky is right. When the economy was going down, I felt a bit safer than I do now. The company made some cuts, which included letting 2 people go. But I always felt very secure, but now...with business being as slow as it is, I am officially worried.  The worst thing is, its not all about competition. We have a great company, and lots of recommendations, etc...but people just aren't spending the money
