 * 03/12/2012 Perfect Job**
 * Dena:**

My ideal job would be one in which I could explore concepts, ideas, values and ideals that are

important and/or interesting to me and then creatively come up with an idea related to using the

information somehow, but most importantly to communicate about it. Once the idea is formed I

would need a team of people to help me with the "how" of it all because I know that's a weakness

of mine. I'm really good at the "why," and not bad at "who," and "what" but the how is always a

challenge. I know I enjoy the start up phase of projects but abhor the implementation

side. Ideals that are interesting to me right now include things such as truth, happiness, freedom,

relationships, health, and beliefs.


 * Laurie:**

My perfect job would be where I can help others to be successful and they in turn help people be

successful. I currently mentor an upcoming entrepreneur in her business. She has come out of

her shell and is excelling!...I like the flexibility to work from home. I love to make sure I am

there for people that need assistance in marketing, technology, just to bounce ideas off of. I

always strive to listen and brainstorm and make sure clients/customers are satisfied with the

results. I am truly result driven and I don't give up. I am here for the team!


 * Ann:**

In my perfect job I would need to work from home so that I wouldn't have to commute

anywhere. I would like to have the flexibility to work whenever I have time throughout the day. I

would also like to use my talents yet, get paid for them as well and really be appreciated for

it. To have access to health benefits. To not deal with "office politics".


 * Terri:**

I want and need a job that allows me to work from home, as I am not able to work outside the

home, at this time. I am unable to work full-time as I'm going to school, so the job would need to

be part-time. I am usually available most of the time, but would like some flexibility in the hours

I work. I would prefer my job to not be totally phone work. I can talk to people, but I am not a

good salesperson. Now for the most important thing...I want a job helping others. I want to make

a difference in the lives of other people, even if it just means making their job a little easier. I

want a job that exercises my brain. That is what I like about taking classes. It makes me think

outside the box. I believe Lifebushido is a perfect fit for me. I feel I have a lot to offer and a lot

to gain from the experience of working with such a unique company.
