Plan B in motion

Well I have an interview lined up for next week and the first unemployment check in processing. It should be enough to keep me afloat but things being how they are it is time for plan B.

Thus I now have eBay listings for a virus cleaning here and a system tune-up here.

I’m already getting ready to license the software (runs a bit over a grand a year about $110 a month) for remote connection. Lets see if I can earn a living on my own.

I’m figuring if I use eBay I have a national reach, and if I can manage even a tiny volume it should be enough to keep me going, and if I find a job I can always do it on the side. Paypal gives me the ability to take credit cards and we used the LogMeIn software so I know it pretty well.

I’ll be adding services each day. I don’t expect many bites right now but you never know and you have to start somewhere. Plus its something to add to the Resume even if I get only one or two sales. True if I don’t make enough it will just deduct from my unemployment but I can’t say home all day watching Hogan’s Heroes and feeling sorry for myself.

UPDATE: Just added a setup service as well.
