    I only rip off the people that want to be ripped off. Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there who want a 'Magic Bullet in a Bottle" to fix the problems in their pools even after I explain that they just need some chlorine and need to put a little work in for a few days so I sell them a bottle and know they will be back when it doesn't work or creates new problems. You can only do so much for some people, we've even had people like that in the forum!

    Anyway, the pool store is just a part time job and summer job for me.....I work in a Deaf and Blind school fulltime during the school year.
