Re: Closed on Saturdays

The shop i help out in is closed all weekend, by Fri eveing work is moved outa the way and the personal projects are uncovered.
My buddy says,
" I didn't go into business for myself to work the weekends".

There's enough work to keep 5 of us busy 7 days a week but what's the point of have toys if you can't play with them.

The only store around too refill any tanks is outside the next town over. They recently became a ace hardware and no longer open Sundays at all.
Since then I keep a extra propane grill tank and welding tank around.

Odd days open always seem to bite me on the bum. Awhile ago 3 of us made a plan to visit a semi local black powder shop well we get there on a wensday 10 am and they weren't open. Never even gave a thought too call ahead.

One of our local scrap yards closes for lunch and it seemed I always ended up waiting a hour to get weighed
I showed up on a sun.
Once and got weighed and unloaded and when I went in to collect she had asked me, hey don't you know we are closed on sundays....

Luckily my local beer distribution knows me all to well they are always waiting for me 10 min after closing time
