Two and a Baby

You have to expect things like this to happen when running a buisness, interruptions are normal occurrences. When your business is illegal that occurrence can be five guys in ski mask kicking in your front door coming after you.

It sounds like a car wreck happened right outside, but you don't make it far out your seat and when you get up to look out the window, you see it all unfold. The first kick tore the door jamb loose and with that second kick they came through.

Fight or flight kicks in and the odds are so far against you learning to fly is the only thing you can do so you grow wings.

It is the narrowest margin between success and failure, a window cracked barley six inches and when you try to break through the first time the screen is locked in place so tight it resets you right back on your feet to the very spot you were at when you first attempted to dive through it, this time you go with so much force that the skin you scrape and blood you leave hitting that window sill with all your might helps lubricate your rat like escape, and when you see that window the next day, everybody will say "its no way in the hell a human body flew through a crack that small"

It has barley been four seconds since the interruption has started and you are a split second from landing on the concrete slab outside in the backyard but the only thing you know is your car is in the front and thats where you left your gun ,by the time you jump two neighbors fences and make it back around its all over with in less than a minute.

Now is the time for the difficult conversation to take assessment of losing you entire inventory and assets gained from liquidation. The inventory held by you on consignment is a whole other world of trouble more serious than what just happened because the net 30 terms are non negotiable.

The good thing is one of the customers who was walking up the street to purchase saw everything unfold the car and the driver and thats enough information to find three people in a car that fits that description, and you have to understand the consequences of undertaking the decision to tell your associates it's a green light on their existence ,if they are still around you will no longer be able to comfortably do buisness, and you pray they have your product, because the people you owe will do to you what you just green light to have happen to the three men in the car.

Calculations and consequences are things that are best thought out in long terms and with clear though, but some reactions must be quick and permanent, so the people you trust those task with must be closer than family with a loyalty even stronger than that.

You operate in assurance with you decisions because normal innocent people wouldn't be out this time of night three deep . These are the hours of thieves and users and other people like that living their life going nowhere fast.

You have to have an exit plan, most people don't understand just how easy it is to rob a bank, all you have to do is step to the teller and ask, it's just that easy, but now that you have the money where are you going, how you getting there and what are you going to do with it. If you have those things figured out robbing a bank would be easy, but just like most thieves their sloppiness told on them and very soon they will talk no more.
