Not like that ART MUSEUM book I did which costs here like an average monthly salary (it is $250). Books here are about ten bucks but our average salaries are 200-300$ a month, so most people cannot afford them.

There was one lady that would come in every month and buy $300 worth of books on Ancient Egypt. She could have fallen into the jerk category, inspecting every inch of the book for any imperfection (a small thumbnail sized dent on the spine would warrant having the book sent back for a replacement) but she was a regular, was friendly, and spent a lot of money with us, so we overlooked her quirks. I had customers bringing me gifts after Mariah was born because they felt like they were on the journey with me. It sucks that companies like Amazon don't allow for small businesses to thrive these days. Maybe if we shopped local we'd be more in touch with our community. That's what's lacking from society these days. <br />Theresa Mahoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10709965543595065306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4651358851207677633.post-913732024783241752018-02-15T09:42:28.884+01:002018-02-15T09:42:28.884+01:00that's nice.

When you work in a big city, you get more assholes than anything else. It was the small town regulars that I absolutely loved.
