I’d rather not be reminded what a slacker that I am compared to you.
You work ten hour days (at least), six days a week, don’t really get a lunchbreak, and you’re a slacker?! In that case I highly encourage you to be only as busy as me.
Bill, you do every one of those things Thom talks about in the post. It is what makes your store successful. Oh to be as big a slacker as you.
I wasn’t really fishing, but, thanks you, guys … sincerely.
