My cafe will open tomorrow xmas eve at 5am and we will close xmas day at 6pm. About 36 hours. We did good business last year on both days. So I decided to stay open 24-7. We should sell lots of coffee and pis here. I know Ill get tired. But I have a girl who will cover for me several times. Good thing is, Ill be online for 36 hours. i should make some extra money at all my sites. merry xmas everyone.

I hope you get a lot of business, and get a lot of time on MyLot as well. Do you stay up the entire time?. I have never gone to an internet cafe before.

It's good you have some to replace you while you have a break. I will move to Mexico and work for you . I need another job, the cost of living here is ridiculous.

I hope you will break record of your last year earnings. 36 hours now that is some task to do but hard work always pays off. SO you will be online for that much hours then definitely you will create a difference in your earnings. Best of Luck and merry xmas.

Yes it is.. but we all have to do what we have to , to survive. If the business comes, we have to take care of them. So far here on xmas eve its been good.

Wow, that is a long time to be open. Hopefully, it will all work out well for you by making some extra money both in your cafe and online. What happened with the plans for cooking Christmas Dinner? I will probably spend a lot of time Eve night and Christmas Day online. I am not into the Christmas spirit. So, I will be doing my best to ignore the fact that it Christmas. I am looking forward to the New Year. There is just something about a New Year that gives a fresh start and a new beginning. It is like the New Year brings with it the hope that the New Year will be better than the last. I am planning on embracing that hope and looking upon the new year as it holding a wealth of opportunities for a bright and happy year. Best wishes to you and your family.

That's a lot of hours Maria but I am sure you will get some business. At least you will be doing something and won't be home wishing you were with your family. I know I would be wanting some pies and coffee if I were alone on Christmas day.

Do you mean US$0.75 cents? It's quite reasonable I don't have to bring my own laptop Anyway I prefer to surf net on pc to smartphone. It's comfortable and easily with bigger screen

well mine isnt free, I charge about 75 cents per hour here. But I provide the computer. last year we had so many come in and rent. Most chatted on facebook, and msn messager with families all over the world. Its alot cheaper than phone calls. Most sit here and drink coffee, and soda and things. So should be a good day and 1/2 for me here. merry xmas to you there. See ya soon....

So you are selling coffee and 'Pis' (i assume it is Pizza)in your cafe for 36 hours in Christmas eve, that is no doubt a long hour of operation. In that case, you should make use of the time to go on-line while guarding your cafe, after all, it make the time go by much quicker than sit or slug around idle. I wouldn't be able to do that, go on-line for that long hour, three or four hours is the maximum hour for me in a day, i will get a headache and go nut staring at the computer for such a long time. Merry Christmas and peace upon you , my friend!

We have to sell some kind of food to the guys who come in wit h their xmas hangovers. So we decided on homemade small pan pizzas. I tried them a few weeks back, and they sold real well here. merry xmas.......

That is a good thing and I am happy to hear the same for you. Earning in these days will help you even better. People do not worry a lot when it comes to spending during the festive days. When we celebrate Diwali in India, there is hardly anyone who care how much he is spending. But the good thing is that, the people can do brisk business who depend much on such activities. Good luck to you and Merry Xmas.

Its an easy job here in cafe.. people walk in ask for apc or coffee.. and when they are done, they walk to my desk and pay. Real easy. With schools out, its really only rental time and coffee here these days. merry xmas.......
