Have been employed by New York City Transit since 1987 as a train conductor but work as a Rep for TWU Local 100. Have always wanted to open up a store and did this online as of 2000. Did not began to make money right away. Started to break even in 2003 and began to see some profits in 2005 and had a record year in 2006. What I did learn from having this store is that if you do want an extra income doing what you know you would like doing, just do something about it everyday until it happen.
