Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

Yup, Pete Patel! I haven't met him yet, but I'm sure we will cross paths eventually. He is usually at the Raleigh store from what I hear.

I have to say - we have good sticks in the humidor, but we have really fun stuff in the "special place" :D

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

Hey, don't dip your quill in company ink, brother!


Oh, you meant cigars. Sorry.

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

That's like putting a kid in charge of the candy store! :D

Sounds great! :tu

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

Hey, congrats on the new job! Be careful though if you're anything like me ..... I worked in a bookstore for 1 month and nearly TRIPLED the number of books I owned! :r :r :r

I actually brought home boxes (that's plural) each week. :r

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

I can see ALL OF US doing that if we worked at a Cigar Shop!!!!

:banger

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

Excellent work. congrats

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

Nice shop! I did have an uncomfortable conversation with an employee there about bloom and mold... showing him some mold on a stick.

Looks like they just upgraded their staff! :tu

Congrats, Mark. I will have to come by and see you.
(Can anyone say... "Employee Discount?")

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

I can almost gurentee I know the employee you are taking about, and I am his replacement :D


From what my manager told me, there are only two serious smokers working in the shop, and thats me and him, so you now have about a seventy five percent chance of talking to a clerk that knows what the heck he's talking about :wo

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

Oh gosh, its bad. My boss has this policy where we can take anything from the store home after work and just write down what it was, and he will discount it and take it out of our paycheck at the end of the week :(:D

I have a number of bills that I need to pay, but once I am back in the black...well once I am back in the black I will be immediately back in the red... :banger

Re: Tinder Box's newest employee:
 

From one B&M ***** to another, congrats!


What's TB's policy on employee purchases and smokes? I get comp'd on the job and a fairly sizable discount (read 40%) on purchases.

Edit: Nevermind, I just read your last post :)
