They seem to be doing a good job. You might want to check in again. :)<br />Duncan McGearyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02857388833850939721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-529575095156315075.post-91772643959505777982022-10-30T11:04:48.389-07:002022-10-30T11:04:48.389-07:00It's looking very likely that I'll continu...It's looking very likely that I'll continue at Pegasus for the foreseeable future. A used bookstore was feasible, but it was going to be work and stress for very little return. It suddenly occurred to me that if I could manage to keep Pegasus, it would be better. So I offered Sabrina, my manager, a substantial raise along with benefits, and she accepted. So...it's looking like I'll be there for some time now. I'll try to find a way to sell the pulp books I bought in a small corner of the store. They are rather cool, though I don't think the market is big for them.<br /><br />It's a big relief. <br />Duncan McGearyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02857388833850939721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-529575095156315075.post-71476287628133911882022-10-26T18:16:02.801-07:002022-10-26T18:16:02.801-07:00Wonder if i will live long enough to make use of y...Wonder if i will live long enough to make use of your new store... The idea is wonderful!! don't like that woman in Bend that took over Linda's place. Suppose if i don't, then Brian will be looking u up to download all the books i have stacked in my 4 huge bookcases here! But they all mean something to me. Altho, i have gotten past the point where i think i need to HAVE and keep every book i read. Many of the people i traded with have died. During COVID the library would not take them (only the one in Prineville would) so, that leaves me driving to prineville, taking a chance on getting angry going to the Bend store or the one friend i have left who reads... soooo a store in Redmond would be more than welcome!Luci & Loreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05532319517164921110noreply@blogger.com
