No Preaching
You didn't pay for a sermon and you're not getting one. The product is the transaction. Everything else is noise.
Greg didn't get into this for a TED talk.
Greg spent ten years living under the same bridges his customers sleep in now. He knows what it's like to get shorted on product, overcharged on price, and treated like you owe the world an apology for being alive.
When he finally got enough cash to set up the shack, he made one rule: you walk in here, you're a customer, not a case study. That rule hasn't changed in twelve years.
The shack is a converted shipping container on the corner of 7th and Industrial. It's visible from the street, unlocked during hours, and stocked every morning. Inside: a counter, a rack, a cash box, and Greg or someone he trusts behind it.
That's the facility. That's all you need.
The Timeline
2014
Greg buys a decommissioned shipping container for $800 in cash. Parks it on a vacant lot off 7th Street. That's the shack.
2015
First full year of operation. Word spreads through the homeless encampments. No advertising needed — the people who need it find it.
2018
Hires first assistant: Marcus, a former customer who'd been clean for two years and needed work that didn't ask questions about the business.
2021
City code enforcement tries to move the shack. Greg shows them the permits, the zoning exception, and the letter of support from 47 regular customers. They back off.
2024
Twelve years running. Same corner, same prices, same rule: you're a customer here, not a case study.
2026
Still here. Still open at 6AM. Still selling out by nightfall.
The Principles
No mission statement. Just the rules the shack runs on.
No Profiteering
Street dealers charge whatever they think you'll pay. Greg sets a price and it doesn't move. Your desperation is not a markup factor.
No Gatekeeping
You don't need to be a regular. You don't need an introduction. You walk in, you buy, you leave. The first time is the same as the hundredth.
