Back to Construction
Just as soon as I think the manual labor is done, it creeps up again. I'm helping Rich, a neighbor of my Grandparents, fix up his new house. It ain't too bad, there's air conditioning inside, pays well, and I'm helping one of my Grandparents friends. It's actually amazing how quickly the brain, and muscles for that matter, recall construction work, it's as if the more you do, the more muscle memory you have for the trade.
Also, I have to refine my website, I'm getting an astounding amount of traffic, and I want more...My biggest problem I'm facing is sourcing quality products at wholesale prices. Most of the things we buy at Wal-Mart, Walgreens, The Dollar Store, Gas Stations, and Convenience Stores are so close to the actual COGS that finding cheap product is challenging. One might imagine that you can find those prices on the Internet, yet it's more challenging than it sounds. And manufacturing quality products is even more expensive. So, where does that leave my little shop? Struggling, I guess.
PS...Just pressed a button that let me access the code on this page, a very valuable idea, wonder what I pressed to get it?!
