Guest guest Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 Hey Dale, > say, there's a new business idea Butch...any Tiki Bars there?? > LOL > Dale Buncha them rascals I reckon :-p I spent three years in Hawaii and have visited Puerto Rico .. and lemme tell you that having a laid back local .. not touristic .. hangout is not a bad thing. If you go touristic you run into labor problems .. same as in the rest of the world. You gotta hire smart, educated folks .. and you gotta maintain certain standards .. standards that are above and beyond what folks who want to " go native " really want .. folks like Hemmingway. My idea of a great place is one that pulls in $50 a day in profit after all expenses .. one I'm free to use without cost. When repairs are needed you send someone out to beach comb or scrounge and find some planks or canvass and repair it. Entertainment is as you find it .. folks make their own if they're giving the freedom. Course .. the bartender gotta be one's them big Jamaican dudes whut gotta voice like a foghorn .. and smiles a lot .. shows a lotta white teeth .. but folks don't mess with him cause he can also show his other side. ;-p Butch >>Who is wondering more and more why he keeps putting in 100+ hours a >>week in a cut-throat industry when he oughta be sippin' from a fresh >>slabbed up coconut filled with Rum whilst laying on the beach in >>Jamaica. :-P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
