I met with Jeff Beal, owner of The Cigar Vault last night. We met at the new shop, which is still a work in progress, but this place is gonna be awesome!! I will post some pics this weekend. Jeff brought along some cigars, an ashtray and a couple of chairs. We sat out in front of the shop, smoking our cigars, watching Buda traffic flow through on Main St., and discussed the shop. We had a great conversation, and got to know each other a bit better. So, it looks as though I will be taking on a part time role as the night manager, and if all goes well, the opportunity to become general manager. All this started when I sent Jeff a simple message offering to help if needed, and expressing my excitement in having a cigar shop so close to home. However, I did not see this development coming! I will keep y'all posted as this story unfolds. Ya know, if it weren't for this online family called Cigar Geeks, I would not be at this time and place, pondering a new beginning...so thanks y'all!! Let's see what happens next!!!

Congrats on the gig.  Officially jealous on this end.

Should be rewarding work.

Congrats, sounds like a blast.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.
