Welcome to Joe's Bucket-O-Rust (Version 2.0)
Well it's been a great first year. I did make one mistake in shipping last month, but that should be fixed by now. It gets kind of hectic trying to work a normal job while pushing rust in the evenings/weekends, but things have a certain flow to them and it's getting easier. By now you know me, Joe (If not, then click on the "About" tab to the left). Let me start year two by introducing you to the rest of the crew:
It all starts with Joe in procurement. He goes to auctions and flea markets and digs through boxes in search of the long neglected tool. His motto is to buy real cheap, sell kinda cheap. When he finds enough he sends it on to Joe in marketing. This Joe does the research, writes up a decent description, takes a pic or two and generally gets the tools ready for selling by Joe in sales. This Joe was a born marketeer. He arranges the pics and description just right on the web page, and then hangs out over by the cooler waiting for his mark, I mean a potential customer, to come surfing through. Joe in shipping then takes the items and finds the cheapest way to get them to the buyer. Of course Joe in accounting makes sure that everything gets deposited in the right accounts. And then if there is a problem we've got Joe in Customer Relations. His job is to fix any shipping problems and to generally make the customer happy. Funny thing is though, he's not really a people-person. (The other Joes think he got the job because he's related to the owner, but they're not complaining because hey, in this economy a job is a job.)
Of course if you have a problem with any of these people you can still talk directly to the big boss just by clicking on the "Contact Joe" tab to the left.
