If that is the kind of place you want to invest your effort, we are building something here worth being a part of.

You might start your morning loading the smoker before the shop opens or prepping production, spend midday helping customers select the right cuts and talking through preparation, then close out the afternoon calculating batch yields and prepping for tomorrow's production run.
