end of runs
how's everyone's run been going?
Who else is finishing this week?
has anyone heard anything about what checking out will be like? (inventories, dear god?) what if we say, arrive back in stroudsburg on a friday? then does BTW pay for us to stay in stroudsburg over the weekend?
did anyone extend their run? What are those "special incentives" that were so eerily mentioned?
Re: inventories, what are people getting shipped to them? does anyone ever have an invoice included? did everyone else just leave stroudsburg with a ton of shit missing from the set, never to be shipped to them later?
see ya soon homies!

Soooo, what's the funniest misinterpretation of a poster you've gotten this run? Today, I had a girl think that our "Shawshank Redemption" poster was a classic baseball print. In the past, I've framed the Gone with the Wind kissing poster for a girl who thought it was a famous historical print. Also, is it just me? Am I old now? or are there waaaay more kids who don't know what "Animal House" is and just want the "poster of the guy drinking whiskey?"
Our days off were fun. We somehow ended up in some tourist town where it is perfectly normal for folks to just walk around downtown with open cans of beer. We got to be beach bums and eat tacos.
As far as "new projections" go, we noticed that for the first day of every sale we had.. our projections were the same as what the previous ones had been for the rest of the week. Was the "mistaken algorithm" just them only looking at first day sales and then saying that's how much you're suppose to do every day? Any other theories?
Anyone had mostly outdoor sales? We've been fairly lucky- with very few. It's difficult to store all those stock boxes.
Speaking of which, what are folks doing? Are yall loading your trucks in a somewhat efficient way? Our truck is all kinds of messed up and it's taking us forever to load/unload. How are you managing outdoor sales or sales with small spaces?
pshaw, goodnight, devils on the loose.

weigh stations...
so um...we have definitely passed a few open weigh stations. we havent stopped because we have no registration for our truck and our log books are always either illegal or not complete up to the hour...we're a tiddlybit nervous about getting tickets? is everyone else stopping at every open station? fuck.
