[MoM] IC CONTACT POST

"Hey, you've reached Hiro Hamada. Text me like a normal person and not a weirdo."

Well I'm not as busy as we used to be, but all I had to do is hold out. A lot of the other repair shops have closed up in Brooklyn, but people still need their timepieces repaired.

I guess if it's Brooklyn you might get enough customers to do okay... Or maybe if you got customers online too.

We haven't really expanded in that direction. But there's a lot of local antiques traders who use me, and watches have been a must have accessory of the rich for a long time. It puts food on the table, anyway, and I enjoy the work.

Whatever works for you, I guess. Not really my thing. You still do that here?

No. I'm homeless, actually. I worked at a barber shop, but I set a customer's beard on fire.

-- What? Seriously? Have you tried asking on the network? I know there's people here who'd give you a place to stay.

I haven't, but I wouldn't want to put anyone else in danger. It's a choice, rally. [ He sounds very calm about it. ]

[ Way to play on his sympathies again. Plus he's envisioning his brother in the same situation, which helps. ]

You won't have to do that much longer. I'll make sure of it.
