Wanted: Good Home Staging Help!

Man -- it's a tough HOME STAGING world out there!

I am constantly loading and unloading;

packing and unpacking;

up the stairs, down the stairs;

stuff to haul into the car, stuff to haul out of the car,

driving stuff there, driving stuff back;

removing labels, re-labeling, constantly labeling

bagging and unbagging;

boxing inventory, unboxing inventory, re-boxing inventory;

HOME STAGING HAS NO TIME FOR CAT NAPS!!!!

AND THAT'S WHEN I DECIDED TO FIRE MY HELP!

Karen, good help is hard to come by these days...good luck finding some new help!

Karen ~ You're getting a little catty in your post! : ) Can't he/she just handle the raffia and tassels?

I thought 'cats had staff' (dogs have owners, cats have staff)

You can't fire her - get back to work!

Take care, Laurie

Thanks for the laugh. I had no idea what to expect as I was reading your blog and the picture at the end was just too cute.

Hello Karen, This was way too funny.

Ha ha Karen -- this was a good one! It's so true that good help is very hard to find and they often cat nap!

Oh Karen~Given the ugliness of the economy...can't you please revisit the situation. Poor thing looks dog-tired to me...a little pep-talk, a couple of sniffs of catnip...he'll be the best employee a Stager has ever had. ( ;

Thanks for the chuckle!

Hi Karen,

At least you don't ahve to worry about him drinking on the job.

Karen, just how many hours have you been working him? Hope you at least gave him a verbal warning or you may have a lawsuit on your hands. lol

I think he's keeping that box in shape for you to reuse it. So, he's working...sort of!

Karen: this was so cute! You always have the best graphics

Karen, How adorable, sounds like some of my help.. I guess I will have to fire my dogs also. God bless,

Very cute! It is an accurate representation after a "good" staging day!

Thank you for putting a smile on my face! I think I might have some similar help lying around, also.

Karen, I hate to say this but it really is hard to find good help these days! I hope you had a good heart to heart talk before leting him/her go! :o) Cute picture!

thx for all the incredible responses to this silly blog -- It is apparent to my that all of you could relate to how fantastic this guy is --

His name is "Big Al" and he weighs in at 20 healthy pounds! He is a Maine Coon so I am told. I (my husband Dale and I, adopted him from one of my clients. I helped staged, the home went under contract within 2 hours of posting the sign and before posting the MLS listing. The home seller asked me to give him a try and I have loved him unquestionably ever since!

Every one should have a "Big Al" in my opinion

Cute poetry and good blog. Thanks for the smile in my evening.
