It seems like I have created my own little world. And I seem to like it. At this juncture I just like to stay at home. With the exception of going to work, the doctor, shopping (which I try to do when out) I like to stay at home.
I know some people cannot seem to do this. As I see them two or three times a day in my store. Do they not know how to make a grocery list? Are they so bored? Do they just like wasting peoples time? Do they like to drive?
Do you know how much energy the country would save if these people could make a loop with their errands? Do you know how much energy is wasted by these folks?
We could save half of the gasoline that is used if these people would just stay home and plan their trips. It would save a lot of pollution and traffic accidents too. As all the traffic has increased due to the snow birds returning to Florida. These are people who are so well off that they can come and go as they please. And by coming to Florida they find an ready and willing work force to meet their needs.
So when you get to your own little world. Like it. As you will have to put on your happy face. This is when we generate revenue. I took a part time job a couple of years ago at a country club that sixty percent of the residents only came there for the winter. These were half a million dollar homes that had cars and all the amenities. Just sitting there idle for eight months a year. These folks came from all around the world. They come here and spend money. As they have the money. This is what keeps my little part of the world afloat.
If you live in a tourist area like I do this is your bread and butter. So you live a good life. Working for the people who come here for a good winter.
