Got a job at the LGS!!

[Steelharp]

Guys, I am now an employee (part time; better than sitting making NOTHING!) at Sumner Gun and Supply in Gallatin. Not sure of the scheduling as yet, but I will keep you posted.

 

Hope when I do get the schedule squared away, some of ya will come by and say hi!

[rugerla1]

Congratulations, and yes part time is better than nothing. And being around guns and gun people all day while making money??? :rock:

Since we've never met, I'm gonna come by and ask the dumbest shit I can think of. Then, when your head is about to explode, I'll come clean and welcome you to the firearms business :). Congrats. You'll have a blast.

Probably be tough to top some of the questions he'll really be asked after a week or two in the store, and they'll be serious! lol

Congrats! I'm thinking when I retire here in a few years, I would like to part time at a LGS. Either that or cut grass at a golf course. Or both!

The question is, will you just end up handing your pay back to your employer every week and going home with more toys?

[Defender]

Congrats!   I couldnt work at a gun store I dont think...

 

Funny story:  Lonnie has passed away now, but Im sure he wouldnt mind me telling this.  Several years ago, I went to the Greenbrier Guns & Leather store with a  friend.  My friend was friends with Lonnie, one of the workers there at that time.  When he introduced us, I made a comment about how nice it must be to work at a gun store like he did.  He replied, well, no, not really.  He said every payday I have to track down Dennis,  the owner.  I said, Oh to get your paycheck?  And Lonnie deadpanned, no, to find out how much I owe him!  LMAO, that would be me if I worked at a gun store

[Garufa]

Congrats!

[Sidinman]

Congrats, try not to take home more than you make. lol. I know it would be real hard for me to.

[Steelharp]

Lol... I understand. I really need the money, though. There hasn't been much work in my real field lately, and I still have to pay bills. At least it's something I'll enjoy.

[musicman]

Oh man. I worked at a guitar store in college... ended up still owing them money when I quit for another job! (Which, not wot workjng around guitars any more, allowed d me to pay the debt quickly!)

Have fun!

[KahrMan]

Congrats Mike! :up:

[Smith]

Hey, give it a couple months and then we can meet up for the counseling session! Gun stores can be odd places to work sometimes. You will get a WIDE range of customer types that you generally don't get anywhere else. It's truly a special place. ;) Enjoy the fun!

[broox]

Do yall got any of them high-capacity clips?

[Joe357]

OK Mike, you have now convinced me to get a membership there.
Also,congrats on your new part time job.
Now you need to start convincing them to become a vendor here ;)

What days/nights will you be working?

[runco]

Congrats, I miss working in the industry.  Yea there are some weird ones that visit. 

[Steelharp]

Ok, second night was tonight. They close at 5, I went ina t 4:40 yesterday and tonight for range cleaning. Tonight, the first weirdness, lol...

 

A very nice deputy sheriff came in to visit another young man working. We met, and had a great time talking about various subjects. Conversation rolled around to how some of the officers can have a bit of an attitude. I related my story of getting pulled over a few years back, and he told me how the officer violated my 2nd and 4th amendment rights. He said guys like him will eventually run into someone that really knows the law and they will have a hard time.

 

I said, "Yeah, they'll run into Leonard."

 

He stared at me. Slowly, he said, "Don't... even... get me started. Leonard is my cousin. The whole family knows he's a f'n fruitcake."

 

I couldn't even speak...

[Dustbuster]

Congrats,
Invest wisely
