I came across another blog done by some Lawyer... He seemed interesting... I just started to read some of his back blogs... Boy it is going to take me forever to get through his... Good thing not doing much at work today... Just waiting for someone to pick up a book of approved paints for their home...
Maybe this would be a good time to explain what Revan does for a living:
HOA = Homeowners Association
I work for a management company which manages HOA's... Colorado is I beleive the 3rd highest ranked in the United States that are populated with HOA's...
We manage about 40 associations in the Boulder area... I personally help manage 15 of those... In managing these associations I deal with a variety of problems throughout the year... Summer = wasps, landscaping issues, pools, etc. Fall = closing up the pools, landscaping issues etc. Winter = snow removal, landscaping issues, frozen common pipes (Only in condo's or townhomes) etc. Spring = landscaping issues, etc. Every couple of weeks we go out and inspect the associations checking on the above... I love those days that I have inspections... I am out of the office and that is the way I like it...
I love some of the associations and I hate some of them... Some are a peice of cake others are pain in the butts... There are times that I love my job and there are times I hate my job...
We also have to deal with so many other things that deal with HOA's... I meet with contractors on a variety of projects that happen or need to be done... For instance landscapers, concrete/asphalt (there is one guy who I love meeting with he is a hottie) insurance carriers, painters, plumbers, tree guys, etc...
But then you have the downfall if things are not done you get "yelled" at by board members... These board members sometimes don't realize that we manage not just them but 14 others... so it gets a little irritating when they basically tell you that your not doing your job... That makes Revan pissed... but all you can do is smile and nod... Which I do alot of...
All in all the job isn't too bad... It pays all right and I work for a company who is very flexible... If I want to leave right now I can... If I want to work late I can... That is the beauty of it...
but for now I must say
Later days
(I want to get out of here in the next 10 minutes)

Well that's intersting. After reading the post you did after this, I kind of suspected something along that line.
The townhouse I live has switched HOA's three times since I moved in December of 2003. We pay outrageous (or maybe competitve for this area?) monthly dues and I'm not sure why. I may be a little ill-informed on that end, so I won't say anything more. Not to mention I'm taking up all your comment space!
