Money vs time = $26.97/hour, which beats the $7.50/hr they advertise for clerks over at the convenience store.

That's not the hundreds or thousands from selling ads on mirrors or menus, but then I don't think I would enjoy selling ads. I spend my down time messing around on my laptop, either writing or reading Kindle books, or playing games. It suits me. My only complaint about my present spot at the muffler shop is that it's too noisy for good napping.

Big B,

Why are you accepting debit (or credit) cards? Or is the merchant at your location accepting them and giving you the proceeds after fees? I'm suspecting you are paying some sort of "rent" to be at a car wash or muffler shop or other retail location. If I am incorrect, oh well, you'll straighten me out.

Tom
