What bad experiences in the business world have you had?

[Alberello75]

There were many disappointments I had when I was looking for a job in the 90s when I was just twenty. First of all I say that I have always looked for work as an employee, therefore not as a self-employed worker. However, I can't forget two full days of testing that I did in a vending machine company. Transporting such machinery, cleaning, repairing, in short, I gave the best of myself. But after two days, the classic "We'll let you know...", not even a penny of pay for the two fully worked days, not even a "thank you" and of course, I was never contacted by this company again!

The most difficult thing that I have faced in business is high competition. It makes working to be so hard because I have compete with others who may have been in business for ages. This thing has once made me give up in business. I guess I should learn how to thrive amidst competition.

Yes, you are right, facing intense competition is something that is not easy, I also felt it when I was just starting a business. It takes patience, mental toughness, and also creativity to increase sales.

Luckily I got a new business and never dreamed to suffer a bad experience from it. My business is kicking and am hoping that it will give me a good return of profit daily.

I can imagine, most business owners usually go through this at the early stage. Especially when you are starting on your own, this is where some would even want to give up, but after this period this would definitely get better.
