This is like free BJs for everyone, 'cause everyone has one drink. She's giving away the premium without a sufficient commitment from the customer. Maybe a free BJ with the 5th drink. Plus, when when she drags her toothless, leprous old uncle Dhao out from behind the bar to administer the prize the recipient won't notice.

Geez you guys! Isn't she advertising for a hair salon that's offering a new service-- liquid refreshments to its customers?

[scottbombedout]

Should it be 'Free blow job after first drink' ?

[Zeke]

Just plain bassackwards. "Free drink with Blow Job."


Or was it Joe Bob?

[GH85Carrera]

I don't know about you but I don't want my job blown. I need my job to provide a steady paycheck. I can blow my own job with just a major screw up here at the office. I like my job I don't want to blow it.

[KevinTodd]

Well,

The worst one I ever had was excellent..........

[dhoward]

It would take me more than one drink to get the taste.....wait.
Nevermind.

Well I have an MBA, and I see the problem. One of the most common, actually. Success (or in this case, sucksess). Very commonly companies are victims of their own success. Business booms, you have more orders than inventory, perhaps you borrow capital, add inventory, sales soar but.....then the bills come due. Revenue lags expenses and, even though profits are sky-high, cash thins due to the expenses of funding too-rapid growth and the company goes belly-up (or in this case, tits up).

In this instance, I would suggest subcontracting the servicing of customers. In this way, the expenses incurred by trying to fund too-rapid growth could be delayed just enough that revenue materializes as expenses cum due.

Excellent. Always listen to the MBA!

+1! - ahh people some people here are just too smart - even for me!!

[red-beard]

Yeah, but the first drink might be expensive...

[Hugh R]

exactly, we can't evaluate this business model without knowing the market clearing price. Is that first drink $5, $10 or $100?

[Seahawk]

The punctuation is all wrong...which is important in a business, uh, plan.

[RWebb]

What I see is an Offer to Contract.

BUT (and probably not BUTT) there is ambiguity in the offer. To whit, said Offer does NOT specify who will provide the service with the drink.

Maybe, just maybe, said services will be provided by a monkey.

Take a careful look at the sign holder's face...

Note to mention to Mrs Bombedout that blowjobs are free after first drink.

You'll need either Plan B or a place to stay.
