Common Sense in a Cigar Shop

As I take my daily break of being a Mortgage Broker in South Florida I sit in my local Cigar Shop (Gardens Cigars ) located in Palm Beach Gardens and notice people. Cigar shops usually offer more than just Cigars and Tobacco they sometimes offer unique gifts, this Cigar Shop included.

 Along with unique gifts Gardens Cigars also sells the Florida Lotto tickets, which leads me to this post. As I sit with other patrons in the shop and enjoy my cigar it always amazes me when people will walk in the store and complain about the Cigar Smoke. HELLO it is a CIGAR SHOP?!?

Most of the complaints that I see are from people who want to walk in and buy a lotto ticket to avoid waiting in line at the Publix in the center. I think the profit by selling one for the shop is .01. I know with a profit margin like that the owner could most likely retire by the year... 3008...

Now don't get me wrong this is not a complain about Florida Lotto. It is more about people using common sense when walking in a Cigar Shop to avoid waiting in line some where else. Here is a clue if you walk in a Cigar shop odds are their will be Cigar Smoke. If this bothers you then my suggestion is don't go in. Very simple.

 Hi Matt, unfortunately common sense seems to be in short supply all over the place these days... politics, business, even in cigar shops. Later...

Matt,  Didn't know where you were headed with this at first, but lost it when you wrote that people walk in the store and complain about the Cigar Smoke.  HELLO it is a CIGAR SHOP?!?  Thanks I needed a good laugh.
