there are TWO people posing as John and Marg doing shop inspections claiming to work for some shop inspection firm up near Ottawa way.
They drive a brown PT Cruiser, and have a long haired daschund dog, that they "claim" is docile, and seem to be carrying a lot of paraphanalia in the rear cargo area.
Both are very smooth talkers, listen intently, then "sort of" curiously ask to look around your shop, see how it looks, in your coolers looking for product quality, at your business forms,even ask for copies of your business forms so that may keep a "record" of their visit with you.
Said they had shops in Chesterville,and Winchester, Ontario,and are just off for a couple of days visiting "friends" in the area.
Also, they wanted to know the quickest way out of town, because they were heading for Omeemee,and Peterborough, claiming to have "family" near these locations.
I told them I couldn't just write a blank cheque for their kind services,and would they accept a bottle of "My Vintage "Ice Wine"
as suitable tender,and they gratefully accepted the wine,and rushed out, something about the weather getting bad.
Be careful of these folks....one of them was referred to as "BIG BAD something or other"....
