Sounds like you have it figured out. Actually it sounds very similar to many seasonal businesses. Anyway, good luck with your enterprise. I've always felt it is better to have smaller stores with a more personal customer service attitude rather than the huge superstores with a bunch of clock watching employees who don;t really care. (That would include me at the moment, so don;t take offense any one.) I've always taken more care when my name goes on the product. Unfortunately economics enters into the picture. Again, best of luck.
Sad but very true ibdennyak,
In this "disposable" world, few take any pride in workmanship, quality of service or just doing a good job for ones own satisfaction anymore.
My great grand father was a metal worker,(and a biker) he taught his sons the trade (and the sport)and so on, that's how it was done.
Unless you were going to be a professional, -ie- Doctor, lawyer or business man, and were going to collage, boys were taught the trades.
"A man needs a trade" my dad always said, if you have a good trade that your good at, you'll never be out of work son.
As a member of the "greatest generation"
(those who fought in the services and worked in the factory's and built the arsenal that defeated the Axis powers in WWII)
I'm just glad he didn't live long enough to see what had become of the beloved country and people they fought so hard for.
Clock watching? man, you said a mouthful-
If you dont want to work why are you here?
BECAUSE they have no choice...
BECAUSE they have no trade...
BECAUSE they are considered by the powers that be that they ARE disposable.
So the next time some wadge zombie clicks there tounge at you and rolls there eyes when you ask them to do there jobs... remember this... it wasnt always thus...
We allow it.
Just my opinion.
