I hate that Ortiz, how long has your family been in business? It will come back however who knows when

Thirty years in business
bad climate right now(snow etc)
holidays
economy crisis
housing mkt is in the tank
this all adds up to things REALLY sucking


Right now my dad is borrowing against his house to keep the doors open

December was a pretty good month for me, So far this year the phones are ringing off the hooks and is looking like it may be a very good month again.

Be careful borrowing or leveraging your Dads house, I have a friend that did this to keep his restaurant open and just lost both of them.

Dec-Feb is where we make all our money, Jan being the busiest month. No telling come Mar what our owner will do, he's older and has been looking forward to retirement. He's already got the money to do it. I'm not remotely worried though, Obama will take care of me.

I heard on the news that new gym memberships are WAY down than they expected for the new year, and current gyms are now focusing on how to keep their EXISTING customers from not bailing due to financial problems.

Spoken like a true used car salesmen!
You'd be sayin the same thing had you knot sold a car in months

My hardwood installers father was a sales manager for a big used car dealer in New Hampshire(no lemon law)
Needless to say he was laid off last week

They laid my boss off a month ago. So that effectively doubled my work load, but didn't double my pay. I am busy as hell.

Sometimes I look back and kick myself for not taking the better job in Palm Springs.
