I Finally Got A Piece Of The Pie!


The only reason I am posting this is because I had several concerned employees come to me today with their paychecks. Something was wrong. They had more money than they used to. We screwed up and didn't take out enough taxes!


Au contraire! Welcome to Obama's Economic Stimulus! Your taxes just went down. On average everyone at work gained about $20. That's an extra $20 a week in your pocket, spend it however you want.


Granted it's not a Million Dollar bonus like the a-holes at AIG got, but it's hard earned money in your pocket none the less.


I also reminded them that people making a whole lot more money than they do lost their tax break and had their taxes go back up. They didn't seem to mind.

What's the size of the BP MarketPlace?

My town used to have 2 independent small grocery stores - things were pretty good then. Now we have K, WM-NM, and Safeway (TT), although the K managers do seem to try do right by customers.

The old Food Fare used to be just fine, at about 15,000 ft². The other went through a couple of incarnations and ended up as a non-denom church and has since sold to another church.

Ya know, I don't really know. I'd estimate the sales floor around 15,000 +/-.
