The world of Cope Occurrences
I’ve given myself the goal of posting more often. I know that it has been quite some time since I last posted, so here we go. I don’t want to be very graphic, but I have been having spurts of blood in my urine. One time it was bad enough that it clotted up internally […]
Last year we got a notification that there was someone interested in purchasing our business. Well, to make a long story short, we successfully sold the store. I will do a post in the near future about the sale in particular. So, on the 29th of July 2024, we sucessfully sold the store and have […]
I got the new Samsung Tab S9 today. With part of the order I got the slim keyboard case for “free”. That is what I’m typing on now, have to see if I like it or if I prefer the bluetooth keyboard that I already have. Currently, I think I prefer the bluetooth keyboard better. […]
Today our son,Talon, purchased his first vehicle. It is a 2006 Ford Ranger XLT. Overall it seems like a nice starter truck. With the exception of the bargining over price Talon took charge on the purchase. He found the truck, found a check list on what to look at and then went through the truck […]
Stacia, Talon and I had a rare day off together and decided to take a road trip to Stanley. We got up and out of the house early-ish in the morning and headed out of town. We had gone to HobbyTown Convention a few weeks before and they had lent me a nice drone to […]
We have had some interesting times with employees recently. One employee who had been with us for over a year decided to go out for his birthday (He was 30 turning 31) I suspect that he had some previous drug or alcohol problems because as soon as he went out and started drinking he totally […]
Talon and I went over to Overland Court to see my mom and they were in the dining area getting ready to eat. We decided to take mom to lunch. We signed mom out and loaded her into the car. We drove out to Eagle road and decided to go to Freddy’s Steak burgers. After […]
A couple of months ago, our server took a dump. It was a good server and had been running for the most part of a decade. I decided that it was time to finally do the big upgrade and rebuilt it from scratch (with the exception of the RAID array which was newer). So I […]
Got a call from our manager today and found out he was in the hospital the night before. He is unable to work and the “assistant manager” can’t work any more than his scheduled hours. So, we end up having a couple of the non-managerial employees covering the store. They haven’t been trained on returns […]
Another productive day working with the managers. I think they are starting to realize that we need them to step up and actually manage the stores… go figure. 🙂
