The main customer for our software and services is the convenience store industry. Thus, I get daily news from the National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS). Most of the time it’s boring stuff about inventory shrinkage, cash control or the latest low-fat potato chip. But sometimes you learn things like this:
Police and Retailers Work to Raise Awareness of Rose Tubes’ Illegal Use.
Oh, great, just what we need. ANOTHER excuse for men not to buy us flowers. “Really honey, I didn’t want the guy at the Kwik Shop to think I was a crackhead!”**
**Not that men should in any way think the purchase of flowers at a convenience store is the ONLY way to buy them. If you need a listing of other places to purchase flowers in your area, please email me, and I’ll inform you of the appropriate flower purchasing locations. ***
***Offer valid only in the continental United States, and only if you don’t life in BFE.
Er…LIVE…dammit.
