Recommended Posts

Its ok If you dont answer this if you find it too personal, but well what is your daily routine? I have seen you here answering questions very early in the morning? so well what time you wake up generally? what time you to to your deli? what you do in your deli? how much time you spend there? When do you come back home? What do you do at home? What Tv shows you like to watch? so well just wanted to know what Marc Canter does and likes to do in his daily life

Running the Deli sucks up most of my time on energy. Its 24/7 not stop for me. There is so much responsibility that is on me to make sure it runs. Becides all the things that it takes to make everything from scratch and mannage the aprox 150 employees, I also do all the rapairs and heavy duty maintenance including all the pluming refrigeration and electrical. Every day there are things that are not working right and need fixing. Also I take care of most of the new avenues of where the internet is going like online food ordering Uberfresh which is not called ubereats Amazionfresh and all the fax orders places like Eat24 Groubhum and Seemless. Without these new avenues you go under. The food cost of just the Corned Beef and Pastrami went up 40% last year alone and is still on the rise. also all the meat prices went up a lot too. We didn't raise the menu so the only way to stay alive is to look for new ways to get your food out there. The truth is we should have Canter's items in supper markets and costco which would help keep us going. The store that we have on Fairfax has to feed 6 or 7 families of the Canter's owners so it would be nice to know that we don't have to depend on just one store to live on. Because of that fact that I have to fix everything my self means I'm on call 24 hours a day and have to come in a few times a week in the middle of the night when something breaks.

I do find away in-between to chat here and do all the work that it takes to get Reckless Road out to the fans. I was very passionate about documenting Slash and then GNR and because I know that there are so many people that don't even know about it, is why I keep on it. Also It makes me feel good to be sort of like a hero for doing all what I did. and then giving people the chance to see the photos and flyers and cool stories about something that they are very interested in. I feel like i'm giving fans a treasure trove of goodies. I think because I was once such a big Aerosmith fan and know what that means to get your hands on something really cool is another reason I love doing that. I never thought it would be like this. I thought I would just put out my book do some press about it and then the publicist and book stores would do their job. Because I had to do it all my self, it just nevered stopped. As long as there are people that still love the band , I will do the things I do to get the word out to them.

I also play softball every Sunday and sometimes play 2 games in the same day because I have to help another team that is short players. You can bet that I sleep well on Sunday nights. Sometimes my mind writes checks that my body can't cash. There is a lot going on in my life and sometimes I don't know how I get it all done,

I bet you wish you'd just learned to play keyboards you'd be set for life :lol:

No I love being a slave. if not we would have sold the store. The land is worth much more than the business. We have had many offers for it but the answer is always no. Its in my blood to do what ever it takes to keep it running. over 80 years and 4 generations. One day there will be a way to run it without it draining the life out of us. The way things are now is we have to stay on top of everything or it will fall. Just need so get some people to open smaller stores in other places. That way the mother ship won't have to work as hard to make it all work.
