Keeping with the subject of bad business practices, this Frank Gay Plumbing outfit will not be getting much of the Villagers dollars either.
I find that businesses who try to take advantage of older people (assume they are all going senile or something) don’t last in the long run. Especially in this community where we are very social and word gets around. Their best bet is, cheat a couple of people, then get out of town!

As far as sales pitches go, time shares actually pay you by the hour to listen to them. In Hawaii it was $100 per hour at the Hawaiian Hilton. At the car dealership mentioned above, I’d just pull out my phone and play a game on it and if anyone tried talking to me I’d say, “Excuse me, you are interrupting.” Either that or pay me…
