Grown-Up Gigs Mobile Pizza Unit
Grown-Up Gigs Mobile Pizza Unit You guys, I went to a wedding this summer and a PIZZA FIRETRUCK was the caterer!!!! I kid you not. This wasnt a pic from the wedding, but from the Mobile Pizza Unit itself (with my notations): If youre new to Grown-Up Gigs, I started this series to highlight real, lucrative careers that real grown-ups have. Obviously, the Mobile Pizza Unit HAD to be included! I didnt get to talk to the owner, Chris Owens, himself he was busy at the top of the truck making the pizzas but according to the lovely ladies he had working for him that day, he already owned the stationary pizza parlor, Pizzetta Mystic (no, not THE Mystic Pizza thats a different, supposedly inferior shop in the same town) when he saw the firetruck at an auction. According to this Channel 3 video, the wheels started turning. I figured I could put a pizza oven and a beer tap, and Id have a reason to own a fire truck. What I love most is that he laughs while saying it, realizing the awesome ridiculousness of it all. The story ends with Chris saying, Yeah, Im a good dream-chaser. He can say that again! He also says, I just wanna make pizzas and make people happy. As you can tell by this shot of Luke I in the photobooth jumpseat, hes succeeding on both counts. Since theres a grown-up making real good money with a pizza firetruck, what can you do?

How to Decide Between Multiple Job Offers
How to Decide Between Multiple Job Offers Q: Iâve been actively looking for a new job, and now I have what could be considered a good problem: Iâve gotten offers from two different companies. How do I make the most out of this? The company Iâd rather work for is offering a lower salary than my second choice. Whatâs the best way to get the job Iâd rather take to meet or beat that offer? A: That is a good problem to have! Since you havenât been hired by either company yet, though, youâre right to be cautiousâ"a misstep could torpedo your chances with one or both employers. As youâve already discovered, choosing between jobs can mean weighing two potentially very different salaries. âMultiple offers can also help you negotiate your total compensation package, which can span your base salary, benefits, perks, vacation time, [and] any bonuses you might receive,â said Jessica Jaffe, community expert at jobs site Glassdoor.com. Not surprisingly, Jaffe encourages job-seekers to use Glassdoorâs platform to compare salaries and read reviews of each company. (Other experts also name-checked Glassdoor as a good resource for people weighing multiple job offers.) Doing your research will give you a better feel for whatâs typical in the market: Is the one company offering more than the norm, or is the other coming up a little short? âRead at least eight to 10 different reviews to really get a feel for the culture, management, and department you might be working for, as well as learn what it might be like to do your job,â Jaffe says. If your A-list job isnât offering as much as youâd like, or as much as the competition is willing to pay, you can use that as leverageâ"but there are certain ways of going about it that are better than others. For starters, candidates should âdo the best they can to deal directly with the hiring manager, the person whoâs actually managing the budget for their compensation,â advises Dave Carvajal, CEO of tech industry recruitment firm Dave Partners. Keep it friendly, he says, but let the hiring manager know that thereâs another offer on the table. âMake it clear that this is the preferred opportunity, but that theyâre open to the best opportunity.â Itâs OKâ"preferable, actuallyâ"to be specific about what the competition is offering when you ask a company to match it. If you hit the wall on a higher salary, try negotiating a signing bonus; companies are sometimes more receptive to a one-time cost than committing to an ongoing expense thatâs higher than they planned. You could also ask for other accommodations such as a flexible work schedule, the ability to work remotely at least part of the week, or more vacation time, says Kelly Mattice, vice president at The Execu|Search Group. Job title is another potential negotiating point, but be careful about asking for an elevated role. âYou donât want to give off the message that youâre focused on ego,â Carvajal says. Since you havenât been officially hired yet, itâs important to continue emphasizing your commitment to being a team player first and foremost. If youâre still on the fence about which job to choose, look beyond the pay package. Evaluate which job aligns better with your long-term career trajectory, which one offers growth opportunities such as coaching or continuing education, and which company culture is a better fit for you personally. Read next: 6 Words You Want in Your Job Title, and 3 You Really Donât âThere are better ways to understand the companyâs ability to meet your long-term goals without directly asking about opportunities for advancement,â Mattice points out. For instance, ask how the company measures success, or whether and how it encourages mentorship. Ask the hiring manager to identify one of the companyâs top producers or most valued employees and explain why their contributions rise to the top. If you get the chance to meet with your potential future colleagues, ask them how they structure their week. The answers will give you a real-life glimpse into the pace and priorities of the culture, which should make your decision much easier.

4 (No-Brainer) Reasons To Become An Independent Insurance Agent - Work It Daily
4 (No-Brainer) Reasons To Become An Independent Insurance Agent - Work It Daily Did you know? The insurance industry is losing lots of seasoned professionals due to retirement. As a result, the need for new insurance agents is climbing. I had the pleasure of working with two independent agents from Aflac recently who spoke about how to become an independent insurance agent. [Watch the video above to meet Evan and Matt - they're very nice guys.] My task was to explore why being and independent agent could be a great career move for many professionals. I've already written about the power of being an independent agent in terms of it's ability to make you an instant entrepreneur. Now, here are four more upsides I learned about with respect to this career path at Aflac: #1 - No Experience, No Problem If you listen to Evan and Matt in the video, you'll learn that most of the successful independent agents don't come from a previous insurance background. They are open to hiring career changers. #2 - Training - Anyway You Want It They don't just offer training, they offer a lot of it - and, in different formats (online, in classroom, on-the-job). Aflac realized that no two people learn the same way. They've created training to make sure you can get up-to-speed on your own terms. #3 - Contests Incentives Make Learning Fun By setting up contests designed to drive the right behaviors, Aflac has figured out how to give you incentives to build good habits that will pay off in a successful career as an independent agent. #4 - There's No Shortage Of Support My favorite part about interviewing Evan and Matt was to see the connection between them. [Again, check out the video above!] It clearly shows how much Evan supported Matt on his journey to succeeding as an independent agent. So, if you're looking to make a career move, I encourage you to explore the upsides of becoming and independent agent. It's got a lot of potential!
