    How is business?

    How is business?

    I'm just curious to see how everyones business flow has been doing? I don't know about any of the other detailers in the Northern California area, or anywhere else for that matter, but I have definitely seen a big drop in business. I honestly don't think I have ever been this slow before...

Funny thing, now that the car is repaired and even though while on the phone that night the contractor guy said "I didn't care what...
