How to get cheap labor

the first time we went to a trade show we had about 30 stores that ordered from us. we were thrilled, and then we started to panic. how are we going to fill these? how are we going to get them out in time? how are we going to ship, package, no!!!

so we did what any great small business owner would do! we called our family! we sent them to pittsburgh. we shipped all the shirts, all the bottles and ourselves to pittsburgh, pa and called on the bonds that tie the family, the people who would have the most trouble saying no to helping.

moms, dads, brothers, sisters, sisters husbands, old boyfriends, grandmas, neighbors, neighbors friends, distant relatives, they all came through for us, sat in the dining room for days on end and stamped and stuffed and put on stickers and organized and on and on and on. we couldn't have done anything without the pittsburgh branch, and we are forever indebted. literally!!!

i distinctly remember at one point when Ashleigh yelled "grandma, can't you go any faster!?"

man, good labor is so hard to find these days.
