Do you know of anyone who
has the need for a dog walker?
Yes, someone to come to the person’s home maybe three or four days a week to walk the family pooch.
It would have to be on Long Island, near to where I live on the South Shore, and the person doing it would need just compensation for doing this job.
Who needs such a job?
My wife.
My wife would like such a job, and she has experience, just working for about two months for a professional dog-walking service.
That’s right, a professional dog-walking service.
This service has become so popular that some enterprising people have actually made the job legit, and they ask applicants for background references, take Social Security numbers, and run the entire business above board.
Why did my wife leave this service?
She was being placed all over the place, and not only did she have to take care of dogs, but also cats and other animals, including one rat.
Yes, one rat.
I guess they have needs, too, but this is not what she wanted out of such a job, so she bailed out.
The travel was actually the worst thing, as she just wanted to work in our area, but ended up working throughout our county, and even into the neighboring county.
All that she wants is a steady walk or two or three, at regular places, nearby, but they were spreading her out all over, which she didn’t like.
She would often be out five or six hours a day doing this, and she found that it just wasn’t worth it.
She enjoyed the dogs, for the most part, but not the driving stretches that she had to endure.
So if you have something local to where we are, please contact me, and we can work this thing out to everyone’s satisfaction.
Who would have thought that walking dogs would become a legitimate profession?
Who would have thought that people would actually buy water in bottles, when they can get roughly the same thing from the tap?
"Necessity is the mother of invention," as they say, and if there is a need, then there is going to be someone around to fulfill that need.
People work out of the home, and they want to make sure that their pets are accommodated, whether they are around or not.
People want to carry water around with them no matter what they are doing, and sometimes what they are doing does not have a tap around to get it from.
One has to wonder what the next such revolutionary steps are for providing services for those in need.
We already have people who do your shopping for you, who stand on line for you, who drive you from one place to another, so what could be next?
If I could think of such a service that is needed, I can enter my golden years with a great idea that can generate money for me beyond my wildest dreams.
I mean, I can’t provide a service to eat for you, nor, on the other end, to go to the bathroom for you, so what service can I provide to you that I actually can do?
I can’t go to the gym and exercise for you … I think that would defeat the purpose.
I can provide the seed for women who want to get pregnant but without a partner, but at this point in my life, I am nothing but an old fogey who has already fathered two children when he was young and vibrant … now … ?
I just don’t know right now what new area I could provide services for.
I can’t figure it out, but I am thinking hard about it each and every day.
What could be the next trend?
Something simple, but something unique …
I got it! I got it!
Everyone gets thirsty beyond just water, so how about setting up lemonade stands all over various communities, so when you are out and need a drink, you can get one pretty easily?
Oh, that’s right … kids have been doing this for generations each summer, and they don’t even do background checks.
Well, back to the drawing board ... .
