SkydiveStMarys 0 #5 November 24, 2005 Basically a square peg into a round hole does not make a great fit......Owning a DZ is like building a pyramid, if one block falls or becomes a little slighted they all tend to become unstable. It is OK, I am at peace with it, I tried for two years and I do not regret a thing. My only regret is that it didn't work out and that is not from a lack of trying, trust me. I have met many, many cool people, made many great friendships and I have learned mounds of lessons. Now I can learn to skydive. BobbiA miracle is not defined by an event.

SkydiveStMarys 0 #12 November 24, 2005 Basically, i'd like to check out other DZ's. I am not entirely convinced that I am stepping completely out of this line of "work"...maybe manifest bitch.... Not saying that I won't open another DZ somewhere down the road....just taking a MUCH needed break. BobbiA miracle is not defined by an event. A miracle is defined by gratitude.

Not saying that I won't open another DZ somewhere down the road....just taking a MUCH needed break. Bobbi A while back, about 3 days before I was going to turn in my letter of resignation to a company I had a lot of passion for, which I helped build... The owner said to me: "Travis, I sense you are not happy here and that you don't see me as adding a lot of value to the organization. I have faith in you, would you like to buy the company?" I looked at him and said, "Ancient Chinese proverb say, 'never own a production company'". After looking at DZs and the troubles they face... I have reused that line over and over again, but now I say, "Ancient Chinese proverb say, 'never own a DZ'". I admire your courage to start a DZ. I also respect the fact you knew when it was time and opted to leave before the proverbial door kicked your ass on the way out... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydiveStMarys 0 #16 November 24, 2005 I absolutely love the sport, I have, over the past 6 months detested what it was doing to me. Paperwork, phone calls, drama over EVERYTHING, etc it was sucking the passion out of me and i dreaded even making the drive to the DZ. Very disheartening comes to mind. I am thankful that I still have a shirt on my back, now now, and I am not completely up to my eyeballs in debt. Enough was enough. Now I get to see the sport from an entirely different view, a view I am soooooo looking forward to. I am in no way, sorry that I did it, like I said it has been an absolute adventure, but some adventures aren't meant to last a life time, its all good, no worries.

BIGUN 1,488 #17 November 24, 2005 Having been a DZO, albeit part-time, there's a lot to be said for putting the fun back in it. I found myself moving around, but not gettting anywhere. Now, I can jump without having freefall thoughts of all the stuff I need to do when I get on the ground. Just show up at a DZ, manifest, get on a load, have fun, pack up, do it again. Good luck.Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
