Holy sh!t bro... I am sorry to hear that.

Jitzy,

I spoke to the partner in the new shop. As everyone knows I am a small percentage partner (basically brought on to handle ordering, and cigar knowledge). I only took a small % because I am still holding out to be a rep. I just spoke about putting in more hours for a bigger percentage and the offer is on the table for me to accept. So I can do it and it will keep my ahead afloat. However the money to be made in a local B&M with taxes is not really enough to support someone.

when i first found out the news earlier today I went into panic mode. But I know I have some options right now albeit it none of them are great but will keep me from sinking.

Meanwhile NY State still has not issued the licenses...

I knew this was coming, just didn't really expect it to happen.

all the well wishers on this board as really boosted my morale and I hope it all works out...

You will be in our prayers bud--your to strong in nature and things do get better--I like what Ron ( Toasted Coasty) wrote--Speaks Volume's---


"When God closes a door, he opens a window"...

Not sure if this would be along your lines but Homeland Security comes to mind, that or Customs...

Things will be O K --keep the Chin Up! I also have been there a few times in my life time!
