Unfortunately as we have learned the Drive In has serious environmental issues hindering development.

What were those? I was wondering why the sale fell through.

Getting decent help is a HUGE issue in the Weirs.... Nobody wants to work, drug problems, etc etc. One local business actually had to put "must shower daily" in their help wanted ad.....

The guys & staff @Faro have been GREAT to me! It would be sad to see them sell, but business is business. Cheers to continued success!

I remember 20 years ago when we had a help shortage, we use to joke about the "mirror test". If you put a mirror at their mouth and it fogs up they're good to go!

When I owned my business I used to envy (a little) the sign shop.

Bad times? Sell lots of signs for deals and discounts.

Good times? Sell lots of "now hiring" signs.

It's a tough business, overheard to start is pretty minimal, lots of DIYers without the overhead of a storefront, and unit price is pretty cheap for the time invested. I often wonder how the sign shops manage to stay in business, I think it often comes down to a few marquee accounts that cover the baseline.
