You Know You Are Old When

Yep.

I did a short period of time working for a wholesale florist between jobs about 40 years ago. That was my introduction to markup. We'd buy a case of carnations packaged in bundles of 50. We'd get 50 for $7 and sell them to the florists for $15. They'd take the 50 and break them in to two 1 dozen bundles and sell each for $15 and have 1 spare flower to boot.

So 7 = 15 = 30 + a couple bucks for the single.

Don't get me started about the price of roses around Valentine's day.... although the busiest day for flowers was mother's day.
Back in the seventies I dated a girl who managed a furniture store. She told me they had a code for the 100% markup it was called Keystone! Any one else ever hear of that term?

Massey, did you loose that magic number, that would allow you to request your favorite, and have her show up at your place at desired time ?

No. It's on speed dial if needed.
But it's like shooting p-ssy in a barrel.
There's something to the hunt that is entertaining to.:love:

On a Friday night I'm here checking out TBN instead of checking out some hot momma.
Life as I know it is over.
Guess I'm not old, I was chasing my wife around the kitchen island Friday night, she's 20 years younger than me. The other day I told her, you know dear, you're the same age that I was when we met. She didn't like me mentioning that at all.

Only time I hear keystone is in conversations about Pennsylvania, Roman arches, and cheap beer....
