[Cigarer]

How many of you bums actually work in the cigar industry? Always thought it'd be interesting to get a PT job at my local b&m

I wish, I'm a bean counter.

Logistics here, but running a lounge sounds real nice or one of those traveling cigar reps. Very cool!

Rep life is hard. You're never home, have to survive on take out and hotel rooms, working for commission primarily, huge territories, being the contact person when things go wrong. It's not as fashionable as everyone thinks. Same for working at a lounge, everyone sees the hanging out, watching tv, bsing with friends, but no one seems to notice the actual work that gets done.

I work at a cigar shop that also does ryo cigarettes. It's the third shop I've been at and it's the best job I've ever had. There are days I don't want to go to work, but I do love it.

Understandable bro. No job is without headaches and bullshit. I can imagine how never being home amd dealing with customers and doing events all the time can ware on ya. Logistics is no better constant bickering customers trucks aint on time and shipments not delivered. If i could only blow smoke rings while surviving the daily headaches life would surely be alot better.:grin2:.

I hear you! A friend of mine did that gig for a while - very demanding, good for a single guy maybe, but it would be hard with a family.

That's probably true of any job where you travel that much.
