You use your brain more that for sure. I sometimes get asked questions I don't know the answer to...it's amazing how I still keep getting new questions. A lot of the older people ask if we cut the granite and sandblast on site..and when I say no they seem less at ease. What does it matter? So I just say we have a joint venture with a sandblast company in Vermont. That's like someone asking me if I cooked tonight and saying no I have a joint venture with the restaurant down the street. Dealing with difficult customers is the hardest part of my job. Customers who are engineers and graphic designers are the worst. I've had people order a 36" wide memorial stone and complain that it's 36 and 1/4". I've had people complain about how the number 3 looks on a tombstone saying that the top of the 3 is smaller than the bottom. Also when we set a memorial stone on a hillside it can be level side to side and front to back and not look level due to the slope. Old people have a lot of trouble writing checks..I've learned to double check them. If its $1830 theyll often write in one thousand eighth three. Old ladies especially give me sour puss faces when they write checks. We don't take Amex or discover due to higher fees so we get sour puss faces from those people before they whip out their Visa or MasterCard. Oh well if it wasn't for the customers I'd have to sell insurance or some shit. -

Yeah but bucks county is pretty far from you. I'm only about 15 minutes from bucks county and I'm not familiar with it at all. I was just at a wedding in the montgomeryville/north wales area and all I know is there's a lot of rich people but it's near doylestown. -

Based on demographics it looks more middle class with an average household income of $50k+ vs $30k for Darby...still one of the poorer philly suburbs. -

How did you end up buying a house in the hood?? -

Shadows you really wouldn't buy a car from somewhere with lots of ads??? I definitely follow up with people who I give price quotes to especially near the end of the year when we are about to have a price increase. TP4 have you considered taking a seminar to improve your sales? I am a damn good sales person..I always have been ever since my paperboy days when I would knock on doors of people who didn't subscribe and try to get them to subscribe since I'd walk by their homes everyday. I did great as a telemarketer. I sit with the majority of walk in customers but earlier today the office manager sat with a family and after a half hour she asked them if they were just shopping around or ready to buy. I am way more assumptive than that..I usually just say ok I'll write this up now. I also use subliminal tools to get people to buy more expensive memorial stones like having display pieces with some bells and whistles or saying things like "busy" and "ornate" to get them to buy nicer stones. -

Do you make follow up calls to people who come in and get price quotes but don't buy?? -

Nice fill the snowmaking ponds. Do more people come out and buy cars when it's raining?? My heat was on last night. I have no control of it so had the Windows open. -
Who cares about guest services, mountain operations and real estate. Just enjoy skiing. Sounds expensive.

As long as nobody talks about manscapping

My gel is TRESemme..shampoo is Pantene...and yes I get my haircut at a Salon...

I like using a little hair gel when I go out because it hides my gray hairs pretty well and keeps my jewfro tamed. I don't even know what kind of gel I get. Probably like $6 or so and last a couple months at least.

How is this sport becoming homogenized. There are a ton of ski brands and a thousand places to ski. It's called economies of scale as toast said very hard for an independent retailer to survive especially in such a niche market. At least now that they have become Buckmans maybe some of wicks employees will keep their jobs.

Mother Nature doesn't have a calendar. I'm still hoping we have a year without a summer like 1816. There was a huge volcanic eruption in Asia and the dust filtered out the sun rays which cooled global temperatures and that summer crops were ruined, wells froze and it snowed every month of the year in the northeast. People wearing puffy jackets now in mofo may. Shit is bananas. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_Without_a_Summer -
