I left my low paying job 22 hr after working there 2 years

I just couldn’t do it anymore , I begged the boss for a raise for a year and he didn’t want he said I had to close and work way more , I got tired of this and just quit today no 2 week notice , I know what people think but I’m not planning to go back

Quick intake forms for events

Anyone have any suggestions for what to use/how to capture quick intake info for events? I’m doing a couple events and I’m looking to get client name, number, email and quick confirmation of service etc. when I was in school we learned that quick demo sessions could have a verbal confirmation but I would like to follow up with these clients later and also just feel weird not having a signature somewhere.

What is everyone doing to get this info? Demos are only about 15 mins so I need something that is fast and not cumbersome or clunky.

Massage Therapists Who Left Chain Spas Successfully To Start Their Own Practice: please share your stories

Basically the title.

I work at a chain spa. Make less than minimum wage when you exclude tips. Poor working conditions. Getting cheated out of pay by management.

This was a particularly bad week. I love bodywork so much, I’m doing everything I can to stay positive and keep a good mindset. Can’t leave this spa right now because my wife is between jobs and we depend on my income. Plus work opportunities are thin in my area excluding the two big franchises.

Would love to work for myself and am already laying the groundwork for my own practice. I know what I need to do. I guess I’m just looking for some advice and inspiring stories from therapists who started at the chains and made it out and are doing well on their own.

I just need to hear that things can get better than this from people on the other side. Please share 🙏🏻❣️
