We’ve Gotten Our Permit!
Yea! We finally got our building permit! After about 6 weeks, I’m proud to say that we are officially permitted to build (construct) our store. We’ve been building out on a temporary permit for the last two weeks, but now…we’re officially underway!
Here are a few pictures of where our build-out process was before we left for training…

Note: If you look carefully, you can see a Baskin Robbins and an In and Out cup in the back.

Alan: If you’re reading this, you can appreciate this picture. The square in the middle of the picture is the site of our future toilet.
On another note…
Today was our second day of training. We spent the day at a corporate-owned store in downtown Mill Creek. We learned the ins and outs of the shipment process and building and breaking down of the stations. The more involved we got, the more we learned and the more we realized what we have ahead of us. Sometimes I wonder what I have gotten us into! Doug, our trainer, was very helpful through it all. He explained every aspect of the process in a thorough and informative manner. All in all, it was a fun day and everyone learned a lot about running our own stores.
