Two treasure beans were scooped up by SPG today. Ink will be writing my John Hancock in about 2 weeks. Enough time for it to dry so my Ink will always be available.
I just treat it like politics and resort to bribery. I have a client with a sandwich place so he gives me lots of free sub gift cards and now many of the staff such as the tellers/front end people and managers have been asked to do me a favor and try a large Sub free to check out the place.
Might not do much for me but they all sure are damn friendly at least.
