When is Your Busy Season at Work?

I work in Medicare. October 1 means we can start talking about next year's plans. October 15 we can start writing applications. That means 9 weeks of mostly 12-hour days. It's like tax season for a tax preparer.

Do you have a busy season in your work? When does it hit?

Now it seems any time libs/socialists are in power in Washington, the economy tanks . Especially for businesses. My home state is very pro business, has no state income tax, and usually has sweet deals to offer businesses to relocate to Texas, and even more conveniently to the city I work in. My business is securing funding for and vetting potential borrowers outside of the banks and FDIC via a large investor group. Business is picking up ahead of the midterms as businesses anticipate a congressional shift back to the right.

@TexChik My sister lives in Texas. I didn't realize y'all don't pay any state income tax. Very cool.

What industry are you in?

@TexChik I thought I remembered you saying that from before. Hmm. I'm interested how that relates to securing funding for and vetting potential borrowers. Not something I would normally place within the purview of an attorney. It sounds fascinating.

@ShadowSister A contract has to appease both state and federal laws, and be all encompassing. They are usually quite lengthy and requires a solid grasp of the law to execute since it is without any federal protections. Its a process where every step has to go perfectly or the deal ends being delayed.

@TexChik Very interesting...are there any particular industries for the borrowers?
