The owner of my LHBS is a knowledgeable brewer, but a lackadaisical business man. Now in his defense he's had open heart surgery and seems to go thru life with the Alfred E Newman attitude of "What , me worry?" and hires folks like Paul, and now me, to do the worrying. Between Paul's last day and my first, he made 2 orders and paid none. By the time I got my hands on the books and found this out I needed to make a third order. That set me up so I had to make a payment, then make an order. Keeping the orders small as possible, so that a double payment in December is possible. Well as of now the only thing the shop owes is the order I received last week. Got 2/3rds of that already and , for my shop, 3 more business days till Christmas.

Hope he appreciates that you are keeping his livelihood up and running.

Good for you Jim.

Great to hear from you Jim. Good to see things are coming around.

Keep up the good work Jim.

Glad to hear things are going good JJ. Hope you are enjoying yourself and not working an eighty hour week.

Thanks y'all, and no Birds the shop's only open 4 days a week (wens-sat) 11 to 6. I only put in another days worth of time spread out over the whole week. The stress just went right out of my job.

And once caught up, it is easier to stay caught up. I would rather do a little bookkeeping everyday than spend a whole day catching up. Good job to you if your boss hasn't told you yet. I think a successful business is only as good as it's bookkeeping.
