I got 8 days notice but I have worked here before the current owner was hired 35 years ago;) Waiting until the last minute seems to be the modus operandi for all buyouts as they know most older...

What number of jobs per day do you anticipate?

Will you be stocking sv lenses?

I'd offer that less than 5 jobs a day warrants a second look.

This was my suggestion but she insists on polarized so I left it at that.

Thanks for the replies so far.
