Let me guess, all the other's left and you then made the executive descision that business was done for the day ;) Nothing wrong with that, I know I've done it before :)

I got lucky and when I took the trash out at 3PM..there wasn't two vans worth of people ready to look for a tombstone for Grandma...and after sitting with them for an hour..and writing up their order..then another family strolls on in and wants to know if I worked there back in 1975 when they bought their great uncles stone..lol..then gets up and leaves in disgust when what they paid for in 1975 for $75 is now a grand. I'll always meet with customers after hours by appointment because if I don't they'll go somewhere else.

I've made many a $ and got a ton of great word of mouth referrals via a afterhours appointment. Not a bad business practice at all under most circumstances

getting last min requests from clients. i love how someone in marketing thinks it would be cool to do something then thinks its going to magicaly happen. little do the know it requires another 6,000 of equipment an 3 additional crew. shit sorta pisses me off. i really hate corp. work.

A close, personal friend of one of my wife's business partners :) I was actually at a party with him last summer. Quite a nice guy and not nowhere near as boisterous in person as he is on Fox

I'm sure he's cool in real life..I'm not as boisterous in person as I am on here..but I'll never forgive him of the comments putting down Ludacris..I'm definitely watching the debates on Friday..I'm starting my move on Sunday and watching the debates will be something to look forward to among all the freaking errands and scrubbing..I'm putting over cleaning my oven until the last day..I've never cleaned an oven before but my Mom has over cleaner..I can't wait..

Getting ready for a meeting with the accountant that handles my office this AM. Never really sure which way the conversation will go based on all the "accounting mumbo jumbo" that tends to happen.

Atleast I have a charity golf tournament to look forward to this afternoon!
