hunks hauling junk/ college foxes moving boxes

I think that the hauling junk bussiness is really great. its a good idea because people will always have junk and you will always have lots of emplyees. tis is also good because it will attract lots of females that will want hunks hauling thier junk. that is also why i think that foxes moving boxes is good aswell. they realized that they would also be able to attract guys who want college girls helping them move. one issue i have with this is also people may not want to hire some college girls because they feel like it is sexist.

His succese was due to the fact that he was extremly determined. he also had a very good mentor by the name of joe weilder.

who am I?

These are my core sreangth areas:

*adaptability

competition

*focus

indeation

positivity
Artisan
Artisans want to be where the action is; they seek out adventure and show a constant hunger for pleasure and stimulation. They believe that variety is the spice of life, and that doing things that aren't fun or exciting is a waste of time. Artisans are impulsive, adaptable, competitive, and believe the next throw of the dice will be the lucky one. They can also be generous to a fault, always ready to share with their friends from the bounty of life. Above all, Artisans need to be free to do what they wish, when they wish. They resist being tied or bound or confined or obligated; they would rather not wait, or save, or store, or live for tomorrow. In the Artisan view, today must be enjoyed, for tomorrow may never come
