Ian Lee – Owner of the Digeridoo
Statement:
I think I am doing just fine with my sticky note system of keeping track of where my inventory is, but my mom’s always complaining that The Didgeridoo (pronounced DID-ger-i-doo) is not a real job. Maybe if I installed an information system she would take my business seriously.
