I don't know what I am doing up this early in the morning....my eyes just opened and I am tooling around a quiet house, making tea (Yep...ran out of coffee *sigh*) and the next thing up on the news in Money Talks is.....outsourcing your CHORES....the piece opens up with the idea of sending off your most hated chores to INDIA....work at home people hire personal assistants (VIRTUAL ASSISTANT IS THE NEXT UP AND COMING MARKETPLACE ROLE FOR THE FUTURE SECRETARY).....Depak, and George got hooked up at www.getfriday.com.
Twelve dollars an hour paid through PayPal in dollars to a virtual terminal in India for the VA to feed his family. This is a reality that will be MAIN STREAM in YOUR FUTURE guys!! Believe me I saw the need already in my world as a Senior Administrative Assistant in the metro NYC area. Who among you will catch THAT wave??? ARE YOU READY TO COMPETE IN A GLOBAL MARKET??????
I remember in Italy all the old ladies (yeah the ones dressed perpetually in BLACK because they are forever morning their defunct spouse) used to say....oh the children of today are born with their eyes open.....well I don't think that it is the babies that are born different....but it is the WORLD that is different they were born into!! We treat infants like geniuses from birth, stimulating their brains with colors, sounds and images...(Baby Einstein anyone) and then EXPECT the children NOT to be different....hmmm...isn't it BAD Practice to think that doing things in the same way all the time, and expecting the outcome to be different....I know there is some Psychology mumbo jumbo that clearly states this point...but that is a post for a morning that I have COFFEE IN THE HOUSE!!! LOLOL
I just want to be able to have all of you stand proud as WORLD CITIZENS....Oh Captain, my Captain!!
HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!
