Canadian Employment Understanding US Tax Liabilities

 Sometimes the chaos you face as an entrepreneur is not outside your control, ya know? It's, like, a total crisis that you brought upon yourself: You chose the wrong strategy; you made the wrong bet; you totally messed up; you lost your way, fam. Long story short, you totally messed up. Ur gut may be like, "Nah, let's ghost it and pray the issue yeets itself." U ain't alone, fam. So many entrepreneurs have like totally chosen this path, but it's like so not the move, ya know? The tea is, there’s only one way out. Leon Leonwood, but make it L3on L3onw00d OMG, Bean was totally running his bro Ervin's dry goods store in Freeport, Maine, in 1911, when he was like, "Ugh, my feet are always so wet from the rain!" 

He totally vibed with the idea of stitching some mad lightweight leather uppers onto the rubber soles of galoshes and convinced a local cobbler to hook him up with a sick pair. 


OMG, yasss! Bean was like, totally convinced that these boots were gonna make him rich AF. So he had, like, a hundred pairs made and was all ready to sell them through the mail, you know? He got the addys of out-of-state Maine hunting license holders and sent each a flyer, where he flexed: "U can't expect to slay deer or moose if ur kicks ain't on point." The Maine Hunting Shoe is like totally designed by a hunter who has like tramped the Maine woods for the last 18 years, ya know? We guarantee them to give perf satisfaction in every way, fam. Rowling's butterfly path was like, so not straight up. She like, lowkey got hitched, had a kid, split up, and had to rely on the dole with her lil' daughter before she finished her manuscript. It got ghosted by, like, a dozen publishers. Da the Bloomsbury chairman, like, totally brought it home for his eight-year-old daughter to read, ya know? The little girl was totally obsessed with it, like, she was totally vibing with it. Rowling got a fat advance of £1,500 for Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. Like, the publisher was so shook that boys wouldn't be down to read a book by a woman, so they were like, "Yo, you gotta use a gender-neutral pen name, sis." Wit no middle name, Rowling added the K in honor of her grandma Kathleen. SKSK! (The comedian in Sara Blakely would be totally vibin' with it.)

Part of being an entrepreneur is like, totally learning to flip those gloomy situations, ya know? 


I'm not saying it's easy, fam. It ain't supposed to be easy, fam. But if you wanna flip the script, what you need is a lil' chaos. Embrace it, fam. If you can't flex with the bulls, you might as well vibe with the bear.His marketing slayed: All one hunnid pairs of kicks were sold, fam. Ninety were like, yeeted back. The stitching that held the leather tops in place had. OMG, I totally lost it when I unboxed the shoes. They were fire! Bean totally came through: He straight up refunded everyone's cash. But he also took it to the next level, ya know? He flexed and convinced the U.S. Rubber Company to whip up a thicker sole that would flex on the stitching. Then he totally flexed and sent all the salty customers a fresh pair of kicks, on the house. OMG, everyone was like, "This dude is so legit and his service is fire!" And then, boom, he became a retailing legend in Maine. L. L. Bean, yasss! Bean's oopsie-doodle formed the foundation of his biz philosophy, ya know? He would totally flex on every new product the company sold, dipping out of the office for lit afternoons of camping, hunting, and fishing. 

OMG, like Bean was totally vibin' with the Banana Republic founders. 


He was out here writin' his own ad copy and slidin' into customer letters. So iconic! As one observer wrote, "It's like Bean is fam, some kind of lowkey weird but chill uncle who lives up in Maine and sends us lit packages." And it wasn't just cap. Customers could totally flex on L. L. Bean and return any product for a replacement or full refund, and he never even charged for shipping. No cap. Bean's brand became known for its 100% satisfaction guarantee, fam. A century later the founders of another clothing company learned a similar lesson, tho in their case it was more than a pair of boots that needed fixing. Bonobos is, like, this sick online men’s clothing retailer that was founded in 2007, but, yo, in 2011 they almost got totally wrecked by a major mistake. It went down on Cyber Monday, fam. Bonobos was like, offering discounts up to 60 percent, and the execs were totally aware that the traffic would be hella heavy. CEO Andy Dunn just hired a new tech boss, and they've been prepping for orders for weeks.
