Sharing Space

Oct 31, 2007 5 Replies

In my ongoing story of trying to sell my place, this is the latest. My buyer is still waiting for a financial deal to free up his downpayment money so we can close. In the meantime I rented him the back room, and access to the rest of my shop. Can you imagine what it's like for 2 SG businesses to be sharing the same space? He already has merged his stock of glass and lead with mine, and his PT gals have been stuffing my racks with his cutoffs. He has his own phone line, and I handle the walkins. It's really pretty wild!



who cleans the bathroom?? That determines who the alpha male is....LOL!

not to jinx it, but just a 'what if' the financing goes south?? back up plan??? (did a stint as a realtor....) m

then the other guy cleans the bathroom?

All good questions.... and I have real answers too! My place used to be a bar from 1929 and has 2 bathrooms. HIs GF has a cleaning service, and she spent a day getting both cleaned. The sinks are as white as when they were new! Here's a cute one. I get a call about a repair. I hand him the phone and tell him to take the job, I don't want it. He gets all the info, and then 1 minute later the customer calls him on his own phone line, thinking it's a different SG place! We went out on a job estimate together this morning. It's pretty weird alright.
