Title: I'm Done Post by: campy on May 05, 2007, 12:29:41 AM Sorry for the short notice, ;D but as of June 1, Campy is no longer a bar owner. Some idiot thinks he can make a nickel off of our place, and made an offer ( any offer was cool with me) that we could not refuse.
I am going to miss the following: Not golfing, because bartenders are on the "time of the month cloth" No vacation because bartenders are on the "time of the month cloth" Watching the 401K I've spent the last 18 years building up slowly disappear. Going to work @ 0430 on my days off. Bitching, whining, moaning from customers who obviously missed their calling in life, and should have been bar owners because they have "all" the answers. *fudge* it, I'm out, and still feel OK with everything. We will have have an awesome party to get rid of the stock we cannot, by law, get rid of...all free, so come one, come all. I've never felt freeer in my life. Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: Clive on May 05, 2007, 04:46:06 AM Wow! I don't know how you could say goodbye to that sweet life of luxury, but whatever. Glad to hear you got a good offer.
So what ARE you going to do? Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: Blader on May 05, 2007, 05:15:14 AM So I gather you wouldn't recommend going into the bar business to someone considering a new career path?

Like I'm gonna listen to that. Same as the dude that tells me not to win the lottery, 'cause it'll ruin my life. Besides, I have all the answers. Topic: Campy. Congrat.s Good for you. I wish I could join the big party. Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: spacey on May 05, 2007, 09:00:00 AM Jack's River Pub I hardly knew ye. :sad3:

Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 05, 2007, 02:58:48 PM More time to slum on down to SLC and drag myself and Spacey out for a game.
Best of luck in your new future. Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: dystopia on May 05, 2007, 03:29:36 PM Wow. Sounds like you're making the right choice.

TOGAAAAH! TOGAAAAH! TOGAAAAH! (http://www.mutantreviewers.com/ranimal2.jpg) It looks like a great place to hang-out, but maybe it was too progressive for Wyoming. Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: spacey on May 05, 2007, 06:07:50 PM Hey Mike, if you have trouble unloading any of those Sierra Nevada or Sam Adams kegs, let me know. [sm_naughty]
Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: gleek on May 05, 2007, 06:21:58 PM Campy, can't you just sell the stock along with the business to the new owner?
Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: E-A-G-L-E! on May 05, 2007, 06:28:56 PM Congrats!
I've never been so happy to hear of someone getting out of their profession. :D Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: campy on May 05, 2007, 06:41:20 PM Campy, can't you just sell the stock along with the business to the new owner? According to my wife, no...something to do with state liquor taxes and such.Title: Re: I'm Done Post by: gleek on May 05, 2007, 06:50:15 PM Congrats! I've never been so happy to hear of someone getting out of their profession. :D When do you get out of yours?

There is a long, somewhat painful story behind our acquisition of said pub, and while I am going to miss a few things, it will be nice for my wife and I to get back to a normal life together.
