I stopped by the Wizard's Chest, a well known costume and magic store here in Denver, to visit my friend and former University of Denver Bookstore co-worker Doug. Doug was the textbook buyer at the DU Bookstore. After Follett Higher Education Group took over the store, he soon found himself doing the work of three people, and decided to take a hiatus from the corporate world to find a little time for himself. Doug is also a magician, now works at the Wizard's Chest three days a week, and enjoys the job thoroughly. A lot of former DU Bookstore employees often stop by to see him. Doug mentioned that Dave B., the marketing coordinator at the store before the Follett takeover and a fellow juggler, stopped by the Wizard's Chest and says he is still running his own little wholesale confections business. Good to hear! The photograph above shows Doug (on the left) and Dave B. (on the right) " taking a juggling break at the old DU Bookstore. Always remember - practice makes perfect!
