This week has been a real computer job week!<\/p>\n

I have had a few individual customers and worked a little at the reception, otherwise I have just sat at the computer and worked, worked, worked! In addition to a lot of hours in the photo studio, of course, but it would have been more unusual if it had not been so :)<\/p>\n

Do not stop until you are satisfied<\/strong>
\nBefore Valentine's Day, we have spruced up the salon with hearts, sweets, roses and balloons and also had a competition where you won gift cards for treatments that are great to give away in Valentine's Day gift! Either a "beard trim & brow pick" or an "Aroma leg and foot massage" :)<\/p>\n

I then saw that we only had a few gift cards left, so instead I had to print my own. And since I would still print, I took the opportunity to put on some hearts in photoshop as well \u2665<\/p>\n

But then there was no photo paper so I printed on plain paper and let our two interns laminate the gift cards instead. However, when I saw the result, I thought that it was not so nice with laminated, so I kept looking and finally found small photo paper in postcard size that I could print on and it turned out so nice !!<\/p>\n

The laminated gift cards really did not get ugly in any way and the time (and energy!) I put into making the perfect gift cards on postcard paper that I put in small nice gift bags may not have been financially defensible if you look at the hourly rate and value.<\/p>\n

BUT I am convinced that this is exactly the quality of me - that I do not "settle" when something just feels ok, that it is one of the reasons why I will go far in my career. So despite this searching, editing in photoshop and messing with the technology before I got the postcard size out of the printer, I think all these dots over i-things will pay off in the long run :)<\/p>\n

Here are the trainees laminating the gift cards that we then threw away haha! You should try not to do things unnecessarily, but sometimes you have to take that detour to get to the best solution.<\/p>\n

Work on the way home<\/strong>
\nMiska and I have been a little bad at taking the bus at the beginning of the cold winter, but in recent weeks we have only taken the bus every single day, good! The bus takes about 15-20 minutes longer than a car, but I try to see it as positive because then I have more working time! When you sit in the car for only 30 minutes, you just have time to start before you arrive.<\/p>\n

This is what I usually do on the bus:<\/p>\n
