all right Jesse right so what do you do

for work? and I thought we'd talk a

little bit about pricing... Good morning, how

are you guys today?

Jesse, Harper and I are going to a cafe

we've never tried before and then we're

gonna head to Jesse's work and we will

tell you a little bit about the

co-working space, the rates, the speeds

all the specs and we'll also answer the

question of what the heck does Jesse do

for work? how is it that we have come to

live in Mexico

and work online so all that today but

first food! I really need to watch

where I'm going because I'm gonna fall

flat on my face in one of these alleys

and that is not gonna be good

are you doing sad trumpet?

all right so the cafe we were going to is closed

but there is an adorable breakfast place

right around the corner

so

the co-working space

is called Tercer Piso Work and Chill

which translates to third floor so

you gotta walk up some steps

all right we are here at

Tercer Piso Work and Chill, this is the

co-working space that Jesse works at

this place is awesome they have this

huge patio with amazing views the

internet is really fast they have a 200

MG fiber connection, it's been great for both

downloading and uploading and you can

have all the water coffee and tea that

you want, they also have other drinks and

snacks that you can buy, Jesse's favorite

is a mango smoothie, the mango smoothie

that he really likes is 35 pesos

another perk is that you can receive

packages here so we have all of our

packages sent here, there's always

somebody here to receive them

and there are power outlets everywhere

all right so this is the room that Jesse

usually works in and I thought we'd talk

a little bit about pricing. so you can

come in for a single use session like

come in use the Wi-Fi and leave that's

25 pesos and also comes with tea, water,

coffee. if you want a day pass that's

fifty pesos and you can come in and out

it's good for the whole day

that one includes ten copies with it so

if you need to print, make copies... okay so

the copies are fifty cents for black and

white and one peso per color page. now

what we do is the monthly membership,

it's fourteen hundred pesos per month

which might sound pricey but for the

speed of the internet that you get it's

it's pretty much an essential thing for

Jesse's work so this is a business

expense for us and it seems pretty

comparable to other co-working spaces

that we've looked into not just in

Mexico but in other parts of the world

so it's a fair price

it also gives Jesse

a place if he needs to come and focus

and work because as you can imagine

sometimes working with a three-year-old

in the house, is a little bit tricky so

it's nice to have this space for him to

come not only for the files but also to

do a little bit of work if he needs to

let me show you the conference room if

you want to just use the conference room

that is a hundred and fifty per hour for

meetings and you can have up to 12

people in there and you can also get

coffee with that as well

pretty much everywhere here has an

awesome view so I'm just in this little

conference room area and you can see

the big statue! look out this

window

this Allie, she takes care of us

during the day here at Tercer

Hi, my name is Allie. Welcome!

all right Jesse, so what do you do

for work? Jesse: well this is my town, my cartel owns it. We run everything.

I actually had a comment once ask me

if, how we were living in Mexico and

whether we were dealing drugs and stuff

and I was like right because this is

this is the new face of the cartel, like

you'd never see it coming like no one would ever suspect it's it's you know

it's actually not a bad strategy...

for real though, what do you do for work?

I'm a cam girl I

sell my body on the Internet. Erin: okay okay

I'm sorry was those are the only

two jokes I had, I got out of my system

I work for video production companies in

the States primarily

so they make videos for clients, they

have things that need to be changed

after the fact and so primarily what I

do is visual effects paint and fix work

for those videos so I'm a subcontractor

never have to deal with the client

directly client doesn't even know I

exist so they will have shot a video and

it has a sign in it that they want to

cover up or there's a logo of some

company they don't have a relationship

with and I have to paint that out as a

video for them so that's the simplest

stuff but then you know sometimes they

want to replace the sky in a shot or

their car that they are filming goes

over a bridge and there's a bunch of

scraggly trees in the water next to the

bridge and they don't like that so I have

to paint that out so that's that's the

majority of what I do, I also do some

design work and animation

that's not as frequent...

so we are in the fortunate position to be paid in US

dollars and then our expenses are paid

in pesos, what that means is our income

basically fluctuates based on the peso

and how it's doing in relation to the

U.S. dollar

so as I've mentioned before fast

internet was one of the major criteria

that we had in choosing a place, another

day I'll make a video of what all of our

criteria were because we have like this

extensive excel file of all the

places that we looked at all right and

that is what Jesse does for work as for

me I am a full time Harper wrangler

slash dinner and lunch maker, grocery

shopper, floor sweeper, etc. before I had

Harper I taught English at the

University of North Carolina Wilmington

which is a cute little beach

school in North Carolina

and I taught mostly college freshmen and

sophomores their basic English and

literature courses and I loved that, I

loved my students, I hated grading, I

don't miss grading at all, not one bit of

it but I do miss my students and I miss

being in the classroom. I think one day

I'd like to get back in the classroom but we'll see how that goes

and YouTube is my hobby, this is what I do for fun

to document what we're doing and to connect

with you guys and just to have something

creative to do in the evenings once Harper

goes to sleep, so that's us, that's what

we do

this is where we do it all right is it

time for lunch yet? I think it might be

time for lunch
