My first job was with Philippine Airlines in 1987. I worked as a flight steward for 11 years, but the pilots had their union strike and I was retrenched. I was recalled back to work after nine months,but decided to stick it out with the business that I have already started.
Currently, I have a Mr. Donut franchise, three in Cavite and one here in Alabang, I have been in this business for 10 years now. Expansion is not an option for now, since the economy is not doing too good.
Becoming a Realtor has been one of my goals, because aside from controlling my own time, it is a very good source of income. I passed the Board this May 2008. I am a neophyte in this field but I am willing to learn as much as I could.
My computer skills are not as good for now, that is why, for the moment, the newspaper is my only source of networking.
I created a realty blog website to have a more global networking about the properties I am handling. To learn more about the realty business and to interact with other people regarding their experiences.
