The Inevitable Expectation Curve

“The best laid schemes of Mice and Men oft go awry…” – Robert Burns, 18th century poet

Or, to put it more colloquially, Murphy’s Law indeed reigns supreme! Planning, timelines, deadlines – these should only be used as guidelines, we are learning, when starting a business. Especially when construction inspectors and subcontractors are involved! Oh please grant us this moment of levity, we’re certainly not placing blame – just trying to make sense of things, find the humor in it, and readjust. That said, we’ve had to revisit and revamp our expectations for completion dates and in doing so have had to push our opening back to the middle of May. Here’s to hoping that we’re on the downhill side of that pesky curve!

  1. I don't mean to jump the gun, but will you be seeking employees soon? I'm a recent graduate and am interested in working in a boutique, and gaining some experience in retail. I saw your space, and thought I'd ask.

    Regardless, I look forward to visiting your store when it opens! Good luck!
