CONNECTING THE DOTS....WSJ WISDOM

LET ME MAKE MYSELF CRYSTAL CLEAR.....IF TRUMP FOLLOWED THE CONSTITUTION,THEN I WOULD BE PERFECTLY HAPPY WITH TRUMP'S 4 YEAR TERM.

That’s not what I asked. Try again.

Trump wants to build a strong economy and bring back manufacturing to the country.

DO YOU WANT HIM TO FAIL AT THAT GOAL?

As for the Constitution, I think you’re getting your info from the same morons who were ok with Biden opening the door and letting the unvetted masses cross our border.

You can’t be honest. Being honest would be admitting that you would rather the country suffer for the next 4 years if it meant Trump fails. Trump succeeding means YOUR PARTY will lose in future elections.

I didn’t want Biden to destroy the country because I started a restaurant almost a year ago. You have no stake in this economy so it’s a lot easier for you to root for failure.

Consumers and Businesses Send Distress Signal as Economic Fear Sets In
Canceled trips, fewer dinner parties and falling sales: ‘We are cutting back on virtually everything’

If you actually answered by question you would have quoted yourself instead of quoting my entire post. You answer in riddles if you attempt an answer at al. A simple yes or no is what I was looking for.

As for my restaurant, I had several people tell me I’d be better off closing all of February because the last two restaurants never got enough traffic that month. February was just as good as previous months because the community is so grateful the we opened it again and turned it into a family friendly restaurant\bar instead of a place that only appealed to the mountain drunks and addicts. In a crap economy with high inflation, we have more than doubled the last restaurant’s revenue (according to our landlord that gets 7% of sales). I have employees from the other restaurants in the area wanting to work at our place because I pay my cooks and servers more.

Btw, our success this winter was 99.9% because of the residents, tourist season starts in May. We are the first restaurant people see on their way up the hill, and unlike last year when we opened, we are on Google and have all 5 star reviews.

In case you didn’t know, camping is the cheapest way to have a vacation and our area is the most popular destination in northern Colorado for camping and other outdoor activities. We are going to do very well come May.

Glad to hear you are doing well. Tough industry.

It is a tough industry if you have a lot of good competition… we don’t have to worry about that. We are also only open 4 days a week, 11am to 9pm. We have a lot of people asking for weekend breakfast since nobody up here opens before 11. I’m also going to start “to go” service on the 3 nights we’ve been closed … I only need to pay one cook.

We opened on Memorial Day weekend last year and it was a rough couple of months. I thought we made a big mistake because of how much work was required. Now that we have a good staff, we can take off any days we want.

Overall it was a great decision for us. The alternative was me being a mobile mechanic, crawling around on the dirt and freezing during winter. I’m too old for that crap.

i am overjoyed and honestly happy for u.....IT IS A REALLY TOUGH BUSINESS,AND HAVING A SOLID STAFF IS THE KEY. let me tell u a story from TELLURIDE.

TELLURIDE HAS/HAD A BUSINESS CALLED TACO DELNAR....A FUSION PLACE ,WITH COOL TACOS AND SIDES., THEY HAVE A SITE IN RIDGEWAY AND THAT ONE WAS GOING GONZO
SO THEY DECIDED TO OPEN ONE IN SALIDA....JUST BEFORE MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND A COUPLE YEARS AGO.....TO OUR SURPRISE,WE TOOK A DAY TRIP TO SALIDA AND WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO ''NARLY TACOS'....ONLY TO FIND THEY HAD CLOSED.......DIDN'T EVEN MAKE IT TO THE HOLIDAY, THEY CLOSED THE TELLURIDE SITE FIRST AND THE ONLY ONE LEFT IS IN RIDGEWAY......THE REASON, THEY COULD NOT FIND SOLID,DEPENDABLE HELP.

RIDGEWAY IS REALLY SMALL AND ABOUT EQUAL DISTANCE TO OURAY AND MONTROSE..
(THEY REFUSED MONTROSE LOCATION, BECAUSE IT IS RANCHER....MEAT.POTATOES,GRAVY AND LOTS OF IT.

so, for your staff to be dependable and solid is huge. My brother always said, find the best, pay them well and let them know what u expect. THEN give them respect and usually they will be loyal....in business now for 30 or more years....still has the same main mechanic.

WOW, I JUST TYPED A NOVEL...
