If skill doesn’t hustle, hustle beats skill, Plastic Man LLC

After for years of dedication, bootstrapping, and just all-around demanding work had made something beautiful something uniquely mine, Plastic Man LLC. It was lacking only one thing industrial level power. My home was in the country at first, I found to be difficult as my infrastructure was generally lacking and overly outdated. However, the Solve was relatively simple, simply operate a step-up power inverter. I intended to kill two birds with one stone as the garage was built after the house the power ran directly into the house so what I hadn't intended to do was install solar panels on the on the garage, install a battery bank in the house to help reduce demand and rerun The power line to the garage. While it was a simple solution, it was a costly solution. I believe in all the power rework would have cost around $15,500 and some change. after largely completing the factory itself, I went back to work various jobs pizza delivery driver, factory labor generally low commitment positions. one of the things I've discovered is when you start your own business. a lot of places are less likely to hire you. they would consider you a “flight risk,” if things took off and they relied on you and you took off, it would screw them over a long run. so out of abundance of caution they pass you over for positions, just one of life’s catch 22s.

While biopolymers have come a long way over the years there is still research to be done so they can surpass other types of plastics. As well with biopolymers we can use them to replace the subsidies farmers now enjoy from ethanol because we also want to transition away from gas and oil entirely, we don't want our farmers to suffer because we want a better world.
