40-Guest Takedown with a Win
Feeling a bit more alive today, I got to the warehouse early to unload and reload for the day’s missions. First up: the 40-guest takedown we delayed from yesterday (thank you, flexible homeowner!). We caught a small break from the rain, but the tent top was still wet — hopefully we can flip this soon. Even with a long 40-minute drive hitting the margins, the job gave us a 5-star review, a tip, and a hiccup-free experience.

• Revenue: $902

• Profit: $624 (69.13%) / ARA Calculator Profit: $515 (57.12%)

• Margin difference: -12.01%

Last-Minute Tables & Chairs (With a Twist)
Next was a sketchy little delivery — an empty house, no customer in sight, just waiting for the brother-in-law to pop up. Smooth in the end, though, and I’m guessing it’s for an Indian pre-wedding celebration.

Mah Jong Tournament Drop-Off
Finally, a small tables-and-chairs drop-off for a Mah Jong event. It wasn’t a big order, and I’m sure the margins won’t sparkle, but it came from a planner referral. Plus, we scored a tip — which I passed entirely to my guy. Back home, the grind continued with quotes, emails, and admin work. Let’s get it.

Closing Thoughts
Despite lingering rain, today was a milestone day — we hit 100 five-star Google reviews! That’s no small feat. As I keep pushing through these busy weeks, it’s these little wins that remind me why I’m still in the game. Here’s to flipping wet tent tops into fresh rentals and keeping that tip jar alive.

Until next time
