I worked for the bookstore that was where I am located now at 512 Santa Monica Blvd. getting paid $6 an hour and I treated it like it was my own. The owner would hire cute girls & start them at $8 & give raises while I rearanged books, dusted, and was a wiz at the register w customers. He eventually fired me and one year later I walked by and the manager was talking on the phone and said, Hey Russell, the owner wants to talk to you. When I put the phone to my ear I heard, Russell, it was a mistake firing you, I've come to realize you are the only employee who's never stolen from me and has always worked the whole time they were on the clock, will you come back to work? Two months later the owner said, How would you like to buy the store from me? I told him no I wouldn't buy his business but I would buy his lease & start my own fresh bookstore with anything he left behind. He gutted the place but w the shelves, some dead-wood books left behind and a few cedit cards, I started anew.

We can work out close to any payment method. You could even call my shop and I could run your card through my credit card terminal.
