The Internet.
Use it.
Don’t let it use you.
Don’t let somebody else use it to use you.
Take you for a ride. Get you to work for them for free. Etc.
Don’t let somebody else tap the waters of
your time – irreplaceable waters. Shove their straw down into ‘em and suck ‘em
up. Those waters, baby, are your most precious natural resource. Infinitely
more valuable than the dosh in your pocket or your shiny new Iphone or your
Harley or your house. It better be you that’s drawing on them – not somebody
else.
Use the Internet. And use your noggin.
In the matter of making sure you’re getting
a great guide in London or Madrid or Paris or Edinburgh or Prague – use the
Internet to find out what guides have got going for them. What do they bring to
the party?
And where’s the company you’re considering
going with stand on this matter?
What’s it say, for example, if a company always
has openings for guides?
Use your noggin. What’s that tell you?
Ditto if it’s got openings for – advertises
for – guides with no experience.
Use your noggin. What’s that tell you?
You really want a guide who quite possibly
hasn’t been in Madrid, say, or London or Rome or Edinburgh or Prague or wherever as long as you’ve been there?
Use your noggin. Use the Internet. Put it
in harness and make it work for you.
A whole lot better than the other way
round. Somebody using it to harness you
Use your noggin.
