Ya it is to shit. If you are on track for a 2/3rds business decline I think that speaks volumes.
And I was hoping to get down there later this summer for window tint
Oh well I guess. Still want to visit the aquarium soon.

Is that take home (before taxes) or what the store took in....
Because if you make 97k (take home) I would try and ride out the storm, I'd say next summer things will start picking back up!

Certainly dude... I agree.... A lot of small business owners are selling out and going to other avenues of income right now. I don't think anyone would think any less of you... Gotta look out for numero uno you know?

I hate day one when starting a new job. Always hard on my nerves.
How was it?

Me too! I always feel like even if no one is there, somebody is eyeballing me.
